bent over and straining to listen

I never heard a word,
except that quiet, dull mutter
quite dull.

Speak up.
your words still
flit
float,
burnt by candle flames.
ears are made for screaming,
exclaiming, shouting, cheering,
roaring,  yelling, applauding
        shrieking-
but not that quiet, dull mutter that
flit
floats,
out of your toobusy mouth.

I never heard a word
sewn together lips,
or a lead tongue?

or too busy chasing hell's colors.

Let me know what you think.

"Let me know what you think."

I think it's darned good -- I like your style and I'm going to look for more.

(sigh) This is most heartfelt, sweet friend, your imagery certainly pounds deep to the ground and creates sound waves of raw and strong emotion, I love it, I hope to read much more from you, yay, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet friend, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
