When words will not satisfy
the need of you
why speak?

dunno...I've just always been very vocally expressive! er...with or without speech!

Truly tho, this is simple but NOT. The economy of words coupled with the message rendered a very sage-like poem. The title is PERFECT too.

love it, dunc...

Duncan--

Well expressed--the mute of longing.  In your case--the muse of longing.

*smiling at you*

You just took "distill" to new heights, as only you could.

For Dunc & Trace


I want to live in the realm of the senses
You've got to know how
And for some kinds of pleasure there are no defenses
I know that now

Our love is a crackling ladder of lightning
Our love is a fire
Our love is a wave moving deep in an ocean
Of need and desire
Waiting for you
I have no problem with this crooked world
I play the cards I drew
No problem with the changes life has hurled
My problem is you
Waiting here for you

I need your wonder and I need your light
I need your tender touch to heal the night
I need you laughing and I need you free
And I need to lock you away deep inside of me
Waiting for you



excerpt from "My Problem Is You"
Jackson Browne (of course)
