key ties
bowed around a finger neck
dressed up to please the caddy man
in black with cricket metal music

and a shadow recognizes
what memory walks behind
in cellophane ball gowns
just above thigh high lies

ticking moments quicker
then the liquor of minutes
telling the story this time
to a blind man with buckets

and a credit card always empty
wanting more than atrophy
can carry in even piggy back dreams
when tied keys

tai chi the stillness of cupboard hooks

I agree with Dixie, that line is fantastic,
but this entire piece has so much rolled into it, it's absorbing...
  Knowin how you think stranger, is a very, very cool thing...

It always is electric...how you think, and not predictable, "those ticking moments quicker than the liquor of minutes". To read in your shadow, Daark, is always memorable.  ~ Klassy

I'm trying to grasp your style...this is an evocative piece, your innuendo is amazing; give me time, I hope to follow the same road you do.

oatmeal, eh? you touched a cord there, love it! (But I'm sure this is a metaphor for something unique)

write on,
