Scratching X's in the box--
eliminate
just what is not
decide by proof
just what is true
and mark it with
the fine proud dot.

Step-by-step--
don't leap ahead
forget the things
you think you see
or even what you
hope will be
dreams do not
play logically...

The obvious
will fall away
if this is so?
Then that must stay.
and if it won't
you must erase--

the truth
is somewhere
in between.
The dots and X's
beg for ink.

You know this works for me I understood every word, and appreciated the honesty, and also the hope I saw in this one.  You never dissapoint me when I see your name I know it is time well spent.  Miss you too.

Smiling at your brain off drugs...
I love this...and love YOU!

Well now I have to do this twice a year to stay in the Canadian Menza Society, and to register internationally so I know all about the blanks between those dots and boxes LOL, and you know what - you should try to do the test and get it, I bet you qualify m'friend.  It is a fun thing to keep your senses sharp, try to find a test somewhere to try in the U.S. (this is an International Society.)  Still missing ya.

lodged between
