Wearing the salt of a Rincon ocean In a place between the shadow and the soul, They straddled blue jean highways Crazy hitch-hikers, filled with joy ride abandon Until the velocity of their breathing Proved the space-time continuum. A sulana woman in plain paper wrapped He knocked on the door of her heart With crayons in hand To color the words tattooed in her mind With asphalt promises that Melted under the heat of his cohiba. It is to the humidor he reaches for now and the silk that binds them together Erato and Ovid, writhing in oceania’s surge Bodies relinquished to white stone talismans Until the copperhead calls from the abyss And the craving for new begins... again. Distance and time are not absolute, Einstein said. Neither are promises or contentment. Indigo |

some afternoons in her gauzy dream cream colors she would pretend her ballet shoes were stringless as slipped on liquor [This message has been edited by Dark Stranger (06-04-2009 06:50 PM).] |

DS- Voyeurism does have its limitations. Thanks for your eyes. IG- Or a moment of fantasy as seen through the glass of a rear-view mirror perhaps? Indigo |

This reads like a long ride on the perfect wave. I love seeing your name here and taking in the view of your poetry. A real temptation teaser, and such a treat Indigo~ |

A wild connection with frayed ends is better than no current, enjoyed, Bloodline |

The Rincon truly is a magical place. I miss it terribly, having moved away from Ventura in '96. The asphalt on PCH...well, it sizzles even in the cool of Spring. But your poetry really out sizzles it, Indigo. More, please. |

Midnitesun - You make me blush. PCH carries dreams that dare to stick their heads out of car windows so that they can (with apologies to Jimi) kiss the sky. Many thanks, Indigo |
