with misty clouds hovering in a purple sky the brown labyrinth lays stretched below extending horizon to horizon with you at the center always at the center "love without your heartbeat-- I can't live within you" so I run a little faster trying to reach inside the strange swirling masses how unfair, unfair I know what my basis for comparison is although I can't quite remember-- ... fair... I encountered no help along the way no friendly beasts no treacherous backstabbers no one of import even in view of you you dance away like a mirage the closer I get the farther I reach and that haunting voice between us joins us in spite of everything "And one day...the whole stinking world would be theirs..." -- Velvet Goldmine (Todd Haynes, Oscar Wilde and, unofficially, David Bowie) |

Wow Portia! This is indeed a ride you shared with us. The thoughts, the fears, the illusion, the pain, wonderful stuff here hon  I'll tell you this...... No eternal reward will forgive us now for wasting the dawn..... ~Isis~ (Goddess - Sovereign of the Spirit) |

'even in view of you you dance away like a mirage the closer I get the farther I reach and that haunting voice between us joins us' and this too... and your last line is a killer...brilliant even. I am very impressed. K |

WOW Portia, loved the poem, interesting images. Also liked the signature, glad to know I was not the only one who enjoyed the movie (Velvet Goldmine.) "A frog, it cannot comprehend the sea Nor me happiness" Paul Draper-Mansun |
