Who is that dark figure on my window sill? the man in the corner, standing in the doorways a shadow of my former self? be ye friend or foe? you're not some raven from night plutonia's shore sitting on my Pallas bust evermore watching waiting when mind is tired enough when eyes are open enough to where we can see all that there is those rare moments of clarity when we see... more than we need mock me and there ye be message unknown purpose unknown and rarely seen |

Hauntingly mysterious and beautiful and exquisitely crafted. My new puppy has chewed through my power cable. I hope I can get one today, but may not be able to get one until Wednesday, if at all as my laptop was bought in 2007. I don't have much battery power left and I need to try to save some battery power left to send the messages to Linda (Earth Angel) from my thread in Announcements every day, if at all possible. Just explaining why I possibly won’t be able to respond to any poems for a while after a couple today. Owl |

That dark figure is the tax man waiting to see how much you spend and then to him money you'll have to send Jus kiddin. Very interesting display of thoughts here. Enjoyable read. Eric the assured expectation of things hoped for, the evident demonstration of reality though not beheld |
