The Thicket The thicket Growth will interrupt; Sight as well And even thought if day has slipped Into the arms of sunset. Perhaps it's just that calm and panic Have crossed themselves, As if for luck, Then struck a pact with reproducing Nonchalance. Needles blanket a spot Ancient with the right to fertility. Still, as if it needs a seal, a mark For something more than stunted acts, Initials attest to the commencement If not the heart Of selection.

Disney escaped into my mind and in the heart of me I saw the twine of arms of pine enfolded o'er...a needle's lot to which it covers... I enjoyed this! |

I cannot claim I understand this piece, but I really like these two lines, they're mesmerizing: Perhaps it's just that calm and panic Have crossed themselves, |

Thank you, all. Although it continues to feel as though I'm working on a pocket watch with a hammer and chisel I do appreciate and value your comments. "Once more unto the breach dear friends, once more, and fill the wall up with our ENGLISH dead." Smiling. Bob |
