I've watched the willful hand of time write slowly: Sketches on the ridge between the creases of the waking mind. I saw the vestige hunger ghostlike rising; then fall! I lapped the splattered whispers left behind. And while the pen at times was pressing harder; and while the painful ink of Hespera's tears was no surprise, I hid within the sore of open spaces and watched the dying dreams of age in youth's disguise. |

Morpheus rules. Seriously. In this house, he does. The krewe of Morpheus rides next Monday night to open New Orlean's abbreviated carnival season. My husband will be dressed as...um, something green. (They dress him up and I still can't categorize the man!  )But I smiled as I read this poem, because even as I hugged it to my heart as a personal read, it made wicked sense. Happy Mardi Gras Kathy.  |
