Invisible Costumes Invisible yet palatable jagged pieces torn fabric of family too ragged to repair, mismatched patches craft ill fitting attire. So we start anew with fresh clothes, turning to admire strange new selves mirroring pasts, harboring futures, holding unseen hands. © 2000 Corinne Bailey |

Corinne, as always you paint images that leave me in awe. Vivid and wonderful. why must we pray screaming? why must not death be redefined? we shut our eyes we stretch out our arms and whirl on a pane of glass-patti smith |

Invisible yet palatable jagged pieces torn fabric of family too ragged to repair, mismatched patches craft ill fitting attire. ============= mirroring pasts, harboring futures, holding unseen hands. =============== perfect C, you write a part of my past in this. as always... you do this with such ease of word choices and imagery take care jm There are places inside our souls - that have never been touched. There are places inside our hearts - that need to be loved this much. ~jm~ |

mirroring pasts, harboring futures, holding unseen hands ...... I am delighted to read such poetry... simple words... easy looks... but way profound in depth.... Corinne, I am always amazed and dazed by the clarity and sharpness of images in your thoughts... regards, sudhir |

Many thanks, Butterflies and Sudhir. Not as much time to write now, so poems have to be whipped out rather than cultivated, which bothers me, but we do what we have to. Guess it is better than quitting entirely! Corinne |
