Buried In Your Pen Virginia Salter Yes that’s where they are all those tales you’re going to tell all those promises you make so well all those apologies you plan to spout the way you come in the way you go out. Yet in there, too, are lovely whims within the ink there’s wondrous verse that soothes the soul, cures the curse. What shall it be a wield of power or words that fail within your cower? What will you choose to share as can that which destroys or uplifts man? © November 7, 2000 |
