Writing through the wine glass,
singing, "This will be the day that I dine
on trivial ambivalences"...

from a mature woman no less.

I'd rather gather the matress talk conversations,
vacation in the fabric of romance weaved by
enhanced exciting erotic Friday nights.

Yeah.

Yet I count the uncounted twilight hours,
scour the insurmountable 14th euphoria,
scribble last minute instructions
for my self-inflicted memorial,
demoralized as total recall to the fall of
my debut brewing up a pot of Israeli white bean
and lamb stew.

Where did that come from?

And why can't I forget?

Focus!

From nothing to less
I piece together the pieces of peace
and rank and file spanking long
after the stalling roll of the credits.

And you know what?

Sometimes there is nothing to write about and
I become the final chapter.

Yes, we do! Wow, I jumped right into this last line. I enjoyed all the visuals in this one, there were so many fresh ones. Thank you!
