I prefer the women of shadows
that walk along the dark sidewalks
wearing purples and blues
with their faces hidden
carrying secrets in their bellies

thay are the dancers of dawns
that linger after the love is gone
and make their shapes change
on the walls with the sun
and present their damp offerings

to the desert of their men
when there is no water left
in the rivers of dreams
and those panting famishers plead
for the khat of spurned perdition

just to sooth their hopeless thirsts

dark

scribblenote: garden of afterhours at the round room a tribute to the lounge crews and other after hours blessings that bring the dark khat coffees to soldiers without armor

this sadly reminds me of a man who told me
face to face, that woman "our age",
are so desprate,
so starved for attention and love
that it has become an open field of pleasure for him...

You don't want to know, how very badly, I wanted to send him home, singing soprano...

Sorry...

thay are the dancers of dawns
that linger after the love is gone
and make their shapes change
on the walls with the sun

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

ahhh the view thru your eyes...
dark glasses and all.

Im not asking for a moment, all I want is time
I want to take this lonely, but Ive no place to be
so baby let me breathe you in and take you into me
