desert ratting yuccas point to flowering recall dry air filling recesses, while this mind, sand grit barren, still carries blood red sunrises swiftly dispersing to royal sets of purpling gold needing to remember that scorpion and tarantula seek the dark and to remain wary of where to place my boots my muse is having fun with my head, today....Thank You, Muse....

Well tell your muse to be careful... we don't want your head all rattled and shook up.. if Muse is going to play..must play nicely.. Enjoyed the poem!!! |

enjoyed, this, and the heat here in my room coupled with it makes me hear the clicking sounds of the desert...some kind of flying creatures and almost sounds like it's sizzling in the heat. does anyone know what creature is making that sound? or is it maybe the sound of rattles in the distance......ooooooh, I'm spooking myself, but, Deca, YOU started it! |

Decaflame, looks like both of you are having fun! if this is your muse acting up then I want to swap muses with you. Enjoyed this poem. "Here I am in prison,here I am with a ball and chain There is whiskey in the jar-o" Traditional irish song. |

It's not so much where you place your boots as whether or not you remember to check them before putting them on in the morning. Smiles. PS B+. [This message has been edited by RMW (edited 07-13-2001).] |

Ha, this has a cute ending. Confession-I do NOT like the desert. Hot, buggy, and no comforts of home. But you described it well. Sandra |

Eeek! Great imagery, but to a little mountain gal, that sounds dangerous with those yucky spiders. ~If you have a choice to sit down or dance, I hope that you dance~ |
