Graffiti

Do you think
Writing your name upon
A delappitated foundation
Makes you part of what holds
Us all up

Your mind is an attractive realm, dear Juju.

I love your work, and the way you think, Juju.

But this one has me pondering that perhaps that could be true...

So I just changed one letter of this one in my mind, and just one letter can change the tone, and the point.

I simply put a question mark behind the whole thing, and erased the ess out of your first word, "so" and put a capital "D" to make it "Do"--which I apologize for, since that's probably not what you were going for, but--that's just for my purposes since I do always consider that ...maybe, it just might could be.



And that's not even a critique--it is perfect as it is, I just tend to suit m'self.

aw...didn't mean to suggest you actually change it, but I do have a fascination with how tone and meaning can be changed with just one letter.

It's an excellent premise you've shared here, brief and thought-provoking.

You are an amazingly lovely young lady, inside and out.

if my name is faith
or hope...perhaps..

if my name is dirt...then oh hell yes
I know I am what keeps you out of the dark waters

to save the world we need more dirt..

(sorry...just had to go there)
