Despair has claws
and my soul is easy skin
for them to slice through.

You could hurt me with your bare hands. You could hurt me using the sharp edge of what you say. JEWEL

Despair has claws...
but when they are open,
its palms are soft and warm...

Poets are the unacknowledged legislators of the world.

and its arms are a shield
from life
and from silence

fabulous.  Only you could create such depth of feeling and beauty in so few words.  

Now I want all the short moods together in one place.... I'll start cutting and pasting because I know there is a earth shattering masterpiece in there...
