erronious withered black eyes brainless smiles playing cards with faraway songs light rain going past my room notions under my bed telling "me" i wasn't welcome? symbolic figures stampeding horses wanting better words jumping falling falling from the seventy foot floor the next morning egyptian mummy something on fire graves weeping mist in the morning two candles burning etched warnings in a green forest window eternal sound on wood bearskin comes alive no cell phone dreams of afternoons at the beach runaway dumbwaiters infinate surrender voices rise from beneath tracing life third world perspectives dominating monsters black ravins men with no ears mouth or feet I was wrong to drink that much |

My word, girl! I'd forgo the spirits if a night like that was to follow any libations! lol May your dreams be lullaby sweet this night! Even in your sleep you have a better imagination than most people! ~ At least I hope those images were from your fertile imagination!*!*! Linda |

quite a 'write'!... And I thought my (daily) 'nightmares' [courtesy of (witnessed) fatal airplane and automobile crashes; 'jungle' warfare; street crime; etc.] were nasty?! |

so very good, so very good. " spirit helps make good poems". indeed, what did you drink that night? a funny ending but very beautiful at words choosing. wonderful imaginations. I love those verses "playing cards with faraway songs light rain going past my room notions under my bed telling "me" i wasn't welcome?"...simply beautiful. |
