please stop
please stop
please stop
I rock
I'm child
within a silent scream
my hands
a veil to cover ears
and my eyes so tight
that tears
surprise me
landing
on my tongue--
claiming land
in name of king.

please stop
please stop
please stop
I plead
I'm bitch
I Am
border--
collie--
nipping
hinds
of the herd in stray...

There is dust
beneath my paws
and I smell
no promise of
a pool
to cleanse
the burrs
in fur

with miles

and miles

to travel yet.

I'm looking for the pool too. Seems as if there is a big thirsty crowd out here.
Loved this one, sister goodwitch.

smiling now...

I'd read this one aloud to a friend, and she commented that I sounded like one of those annoying women in the grocery stores who couldn't control her kids--and I looked up, surprised, saying, "But I was talking to my HUSBAND!"

*giggle*?

sigh
