where levee breaks ... rivers flow eternal into delta's waiting mouth love's slow current overwhelms my flow south unto the rushes I sacrifice my will relentless hunger remains unfulfilled of ocean's deep, the mysteries I write but love's deeper well clinches tight and oh inept this riverine to contain the tide of lusting need the play of surf upon wanton lips foamed surge sprays as tide doth rip from mountain's ice, to sea asunder joined joyful in the roar of thunder be damned the living in its wake accursed, dwell where levee breaks waters of love, forever swift our consummation, now adrift serenity and M.A. Miller 07.21.00 [This message has been edited by MA Miller (edited 07-21-2000).] |

Loved the flow of the poem,, quiet beginning but a thunderous finish Jamie Tu ne cede malis, sed contra audentior ito. - Virgil. "Yield thou not to adversity, but press on the more bravely". |

serenity... if you don't mind, i'd like to pull this into my manuscript ... of course with your full accreditation ... Seems people like the "flow" ... i did too ... reads nice, with rhythm and rhyme ... thanks for the effort ... your words tempered a more lusty direction for the piece and titled it, as well ... well done. |

a wonderful team effort guys this one flowed effortlessly. 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 |
