A holy man of a different tradition a labyrinth to walk--transition... beat-heart-beat (spirit rattle) Dreamtime spent in BATTLE. Kundalini--fire--kindled. Chakras spinning, shining beacons... I WILL to pause this ceaseless breathing to hear the wisdom of this deacon. Who is this man who does enchant High Priestess of Immortal Dance? I'd give him not a second glance, but in one glimpse I dared perchance... I blushed to look into his eyes. Now All I've Ever Known is lies. |

I knew it! You ARE the reincarnation of Laveau!!! Cool.  Shall I X thine tomb?Anyway... take away the mystical qualities of this piece, and you have naked, raw hurt. Y'know, whenever I repost Open 6's, they sink to the stony floor of PIP. I think my early poetry is cursed.Blabbering |

The ethereal ambience of the main body of the poem is shattered in the last two lines I blushed to look into his eyes. Now All I've Ever Known is lies. There are no favourite lines here, each line is perfect. I find myself humming Patti Smith's Ghost Dance now. Anyway rambling, Enjoyed this poem more than I say. Sing on Poetess. El riesgo vive siempre! |

Now it just wouldn't be a worthwhile trip in here without reading at least one of yours and so now I feel more complete. So many moments we have each day but there is something to be said for those few that seem to get tangled into our souls....... carriages of thought are your words always |
