"I saw millions--
galaxies
lessons
in the wings
I dreamed
thousands of them
dancing free
woodland gypsies
on the head
of a magick
pin in seam
singing smiles of unity
widdershin
of pain released
through a thread
unraveling
reversing
all I ever was
to all
that I might hope to be -
I curtsied as I lifted hem:


'Take the thorn of my suppose--
capturing the blush of rose
burning crimson cheek of this
to sweetly dream my lover's kiss.'"


She rubbed satin on her face--
furious to make escape
worried that
someone had heard
her quickening of breath
she blushed
and stitched a silent stitch
she is...


a million miles away.

Thimbled thumb against the point of perfect entrance...
Flowing red upon the page of light, fire and degrees...
Cool write.

Serenity,

me thinks you were born too late. You belong in a different age and time, in gentler climes.

Lovely, this!

This was great and it just kept getting better.  Way to go, Serenity!

Thanks very much to all of you for "getting" this one. I realize sometimes I'm kinda "out there", but I do try to take ya'll with me on my mind travels.

It's wonderful to feel understood.

I'm grateful.
