there was nothing there before
and then some sun
and water
and a memory seeped from still

I remember it from this side
although I didn't know I was there
just perhapsing perhaps
and then got some on me

and then that tomorrow
when the sun went under too
there were dark places
deep as the knees of empty

they were my favorite shoes
I wore them until I was young
and after the oldness wore off
until that yesterday became today

and I am still from the wandering place

"author unknown

~ and daark is most notably known for his clever ingenuity and creativity ~ with a bit of sensuality thrown in for good measure.

Love your "stuff",

"from stuff"

That's so...cute.

It reminded me that my nephew's answer to the question, "Where do you live?" was a simple "Erf."

You let us the little boy in you, and that is sooooooooo sweet.

Some pretty amazing things come from "stuff".

there were dark places
deep as the knees of empty

from the wandering place.  Me too.  Staked and tied by my own cowardice, but that's my place too.  Love to read you.  Love the way you use language.
