Mayan Sketches . . . in a poets hand: the writing of rogue sketches written in the language of forevermore a puzzlement of never-cries and fading pride. Pens upright like obelisks scratching the future with monuments something they will never see - The promise is good enough to appease the gods of the apocalypse In the sad awakening of new man meeting old neither was ready to share the present sight dimmed by the power of life. They built the steps of gold in harmony with the phases of the moon and the ringed glory of the sun’s encircling gifts Was it worth the cost just to be Closer to God? Strange mixtures of the brutal and the bereaved an edginess was written in frail tracing wings of butterflies. Bewildered, we have found what you have lost when unleashed legends go awry, land is salted with blood and peppered with lives exhaled out in the candles of immortality and the ashes of what can never be again. 9/01/09 Jeff Feezle |

This is going into my library. Well written and thoughtful, crossing many levels of time, space, humanity. |

AS you age Jeff, you start to see how mortal you are and how the simplest of things was the most important in life... ![]() M |
