felt ribbons lying on the grave marker strictly regulate my double standards sworn to sobriety toast it with a shotgun shot glass negligee satin touch virgin skin lying on the wet paint organized mayhem, calculated clutter set aside luckily no one pays as much mind as I to the dirt beneath my fingerprints to the cowardice behind the wisp of my smile the absence of echoes, of voices fill the canyons inside I would silence the heavens below if the thefts in my heart saw sunlight draped over the skylight if an utterance of relief were a memoir and not a aspiration there are splits on the rings of a tree a place where the nail is driven into the coffin there is a core where things grow from instead of being eaten at I hope in my journeys wayward I find such a place |

I enjoyed this poem a great deal. I like these phrases: ~organized mayhem~ ~calculated clutter~ Though always a quest, some have found that core....acceptance is everything in it's revelation... Thank you so much for this poem. Opens my mind to so many possiblilites... ~WELCOME TO PASSIONS~ I look forward to reading more of your work. Warm Regards, Pat ..without surrender, be on good terms with all persons.. "Desiderata" [This message has been edited by regards2you (11-18-2002 09:22 AM).] |

I'll sip a glass to that. |
