perhaps i slept in earphones of bareness twas the fever my missing teeth knocked me unconscious with an echo of sky walks past the bars carrying a model sweet like a woman’s sigh good nature watches people running together hearing the hum of a thousand conversations with painted faces of twilight warm and busy rowing through hairpin turns with flashlight imaginations warming the seat of my mind always returning bright gold laughs of small talk that hurries past microscopic detail some nights… i hear the wind of summer wavelets of light shining down from a brilliant dark velvet sky separating dark roads from moss covered river banks nature wears an olive green trench coat dropping swollen letters on oceans with the vibrancy of young boys trading cards there is where i chose to reside |

What is amazing about your work is that I can take any part of it, and know that it could stand solidly alone, and while I could do this with any part of your poem, the ending here is my favorite: "nature wears an olive green trench coat dropping swollen letters on oceans with the vibrancy of young boys trading cards there is where i chose to reside" What a fantastic tactile image there, Lee! much enjoyed and oh how I learn from you!  |

an echo of sky walks past the bars even these two lines are a beauty on their own ... I agree with Karen's comment, I always think that too when reading your flow of creativity that holds such richness!  Love, Margherita |
