Tonight my soul is death in breath a universe rolls down my cheek-- too bad the river was not Lethe how sad the journey out of reach... I paid the toll--I paid it twice... and doubled it with roll of dice, I've been beaten black and blue-- and wondered at the shades of bruise Healing deep, in trauma's curse, yellowed greens of sickened verse that appear upon a knot that swells where never love should not. I cannot take another day to carry on, pretend this way, I cannot hide another lie. Tonight? I think my soul has died. |

...oh, this was so real and raw...very moving, powerful and sad! I liked the idea that the body, although beaten, can heal...the soul or spirit can die first...wow... Jellybean King |

sam? thank you much for the wonderful compliment! (me tree talking buddy...grin) and Paula and Bernie...sweet friends you are, I thank you much! smooches and hugs jbk---every now and then? someone zeroes in on the "seed" concept I had in mind...I thank you...makes me feel good to know that maybe this time I communicated. You hit it right on the head my friend. and for those who know I usually write from life? This was a rememory (thanks to C for that phrase) Love to all, and thank you. And my apologies for lack of replies of late...trying to ketchup...grin...thanks again! |
