10 July 2018

It is in the bowels
of the night
that my twenty-five senses
come alive
and quiver
and shiver
and slither
and my mind
explodes into
star-sparkled
bloom.

this.

Thank you, Ida.  Sorry I took so long to answer, but I have had a lot on my plate, including 3 lots of burglars.  I put that in this reply, as I didn't have the heart to put it in the other one (Breaking News) as I didn't want you to spoil your comment there.

So sorry to hear you are having those problems again, Diana. Very scary.

Thank you, Ida.  It is getting a little better, as I have beefed up my security, but I am losing 5 hours a day on my computer, as I can't get on it at night.  However, I hope to change that in time.
