passing the past of the infection
of the affection she offered
was easy once cured

by johnny and his ring songs
of gospel coated heal me gods
in black and leather caddy lacquer

she sent me invitations after
to weddings on bollywood afternoons
and train rides to bedlam beyond

that were endless afterswoons
of just the chanting enchantment
of cardboard housing beside the rails

something about the scars of ra
healed more quickly then my cancer
and less ugly then her sandaled tattoos

or do they call them footprints now

Johny and his ring songs are surely sorely missed.  You bring back many barefoot memories and happy smiles with this one D.

And as always, the between the lines
are some of my favorite places to read and be.  

Hugs big daddy.
