palm springs on the weekend during the week spring break at the retirement home where they blame the wrinkles on the sun and say the more you got the better the chances of getting one of those for an hour some night and waking up a winner once the memory is gone everyday is good at the terezza for brunch or lunch the mist spray cools the wet shirt hoodoos in paradigm of skin and capacious tan with color to cover what is not broken or fixed only cracked or bent that way on purpose when they serve margaritas to the blind men with ubiquitous diamonds and hundred dollar gloves that stick to bare hips and leave dollar sighs above and to the golfer with a limp, distention and a jag must be a daughter on his arm, or bane on half shell since daughters don't usually touch there when daddy's tells jokes about hot sauce or hetrodox or ice cream cone licks that take the limp away and leave green in her wallet and a caddy, she got by legerdemain and daddy a week ago a caddy that is just a chevy to the dollar guys the valet wouldn’t borrow it for a spin or sin just parks it out back in the sun by the lincoln and leaves the shade and the view by the door for some not dead yet infernal and his occasional date with the bentley and a garage in beverly hills ©Dark |

I wish I could see things through your eyes for a day... your poetry gives me a glimpse, and that is what makes it so fantastic.  |

DS Sometimes you see far to well to where pretty isn't always what it seems. Palm Springs is just as you say, and more. Much enjoyed the look through your eyes. |

I believe I have seen this same thing in other places... behind the facade lies the shallow and the struggles. Different struggles for some, but just as cheap... just as hard.... enjoyed |
