scrapping for crumbs

under tables of childhood

a woman from Harvard screams

her dreams have been raped

by the genitals of transformation into

over heated cathedrals

wandering lambs, trading books

for a thirsty past, of skull & bones

aficionados

which now fly into

the hands of wolves

who wear perforated rubber gloves

so, fusion with shadows of green

can make nature seep into mature

echoes for life, for the lost

into moments of symbolic art

human images in torn bits of cloth

stuck in a crack of rippling seas

tilting, to affirm disembodied voices

which lay silent to a sleeping world

carrying lunch kettles, to keep fresh

long perished information

with golden hair spiraling over

opposite cultures

the seen and unseen world…

lifts, through chimney dimensions

like drunken god’s, each owning his

own gargoyle, sprinkling holy water

over tongue-tied languages,

sipping the wine

of ex-lovers...

so I join the woman,

the one searching for crumbs

under the table of youth...

she's welcomed help

anything is better then nothing,

right?

it’s those anything’s which seam

the world

Dear Lee, if we can all add a thread of anythings to this patchwork of life, we can say we have contributed.
Enjoyed as always, sewing in my piece.

Sincerely
Rick
