Water Down Tear up the sky baby pour the water down the sound is falling hear its feet trace my map into the slide of mud wrapped in hard down rock oh rock me with the music of your liquid breath dimple darling the street with rivers filling up into the dark delivery comes from your potent mouth as it crumbles the blush of dusk with stakes that jam the horizon down into the cinnabar crack of tomorrow Don’t whisper it’s too late and I have yearned for sound of tin drums to make music like your hands in my mind feed me baby with you patter I’m starved and rocking in a boat made of splinters ‘til I drown [This message has been edited by Martie (02-26-2003 05:55 PM).] |

(sigh) Oh Martie, this is gorgeous, sweet friend, this poem bounced around softly and made me feel like I was sailing away on the ocean! (kiss on cheek) This is lovely, sweet friend, yay, you truly set us afloat with your muse, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Martie, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |
