Whole Holes |

Whole birth places marked above grassy turfs, whole cemeteries hidden from village serfs, whole coffins open to the spirits that escape unholy crimes those spirits cause, we investigate. The whole of my life is marked by holes on my person, from the hole in the bottom sole, to the top of the my closely shaven head walking this gauntlet, with the walking dead. The holes in my socks are for my bare feet to show gaping holes in my pants, for in my body goes, whole lives filled with dough holes surrounded look at the bagel and donut shapes, confounded! Holy treasures hidden within sunken monuments holy books written on the trails prophets were sent; whole lives filled with dough holes confounded unholy crimes in this world unsurmounted. Holes in the seat of my pants, show my skin whole days covered by rants, work me thin... holes in the lives of people with emptied hearts afraid to face tragic facts and take fresh starts. Whole holes are neither full nor empty holy wholes are saintly bodies of plenty on the whole, holes are rather cumbersome to keep, tragic holes fill whole hearts of people...asleep.

It's only a pleasure to play with words, and add a double punch when you can work two words that sound alike! Thanks Balladeer |

This is so VERY clever, Martin..... I didn't know that you wore pants with holes in them.......but are they whole holes, or half holes? Happy New Year. copyright2001 Lyra Nesius |

Martin darling boy, this is wholly wonderful How absolutely amazing this is. YOU darling bow are something incredible. I don't know how I missed this earlier but then poems fall so quickly. I've switched my preference to 200 to a page they still fall but I don't have to go through so many pages to find them. Never mind I found it now and I hope it stays well and truly near the top of the page. As always Martin your writing is magnificent well done, I really love the way you've played with this Love and warm stuff As always Mushy To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace St John ch2 v1 |

Martin - I think you need some new socks and pants, either that, or a sewing kit.lol Like the play on words, very creative, but I wouldn't expect anything less from you. Well done. Dave |
