she said she was the 29 part of 43 I was just five shy of 20 myself at a carnival looking for treasures and she had cards and palms and secrets and a low cut bosom kind of gypsy shirt with cocoa brown shimmer skin that took my eyes down to heaven while she used my fingers on her tarot she touched my hip with her glances and said I was a gifted boy with assets and could break a heart or two in time or could be her healer if I had a mind to she told me about love and rivers flow how the shallows are always in a hurry to get no where special and they meander and are never deep enough to get all on ya and the deep ones are the slow love kind that take all of the time they need to just cover everything you ever minded and keep the good on top and swallow bad she put my hand between her breasts then and said can the boy man feel my heartbeat then she did the shh sound for her secrets so that only she and I would be the ones that ever knew she no longer even had one ______________ daark (of cajun wood) |

Whoa! Dark Stranger. This is a dynamite piece of art. You can smell the musk, taste the darkness, hear the siren call of the carney. Brilliant work, for which, thank you. Sutra 2: Reflection is not solely that which we see in the mirror of Now, but is also the contemplation of why that image is. |

Vey nicely written. Though, perhaps a tiny bit racy. Arana Darkwolf |

Perhaps I misinterpreted this particular part... "she put my hand between her breasts then and said can the boy man feel my heartbeat then she did the shh sound for her secrets so that only she and I would be the ones that ever knew she no longer even had one" Arana Darkwolf |

ms berger...perhaps you did... it suggests the search for a heart and finding there was none..that is all.. |

Wow, DS! This is a masterpiece, I think the best of yours I've ever read. Just, an hour I was composing a poem in my heart and mind, that mirrors your 4th and 5th stanzas here. It amazes me sometimes how we poets seemed linked in strange but wonderful ways. Thanks for the read, and keep a look out for mine, I will title it Slow River. beautiful piece, my friend. ~Brad "the author, the artist, is never more than 50% of the piece. The audience, AH, now there is the key. Never more, nor less, than 50% of me." [This message has been edited by martiniat8 (10-18-2009 04:14 PM).] |

DS Friend When I take my away time, I come back to your poetry. It draws me in to the images you create - and I smile and treasure the way the words flit around me. A |
