baby (count to eight) like the razor across sky in reverse of what was heard and what is there in proof of eye. baby boom again let the voices over-ride the ear that speaks the sane refrain and taunts you with the same old lies. they summon ye, as they pace this talk: "embrace the darkness-- take the walk." and quiver, still in depths of Hell in the beckon's curl of grin; "Come ye," snarls the ferryman.." |

"Demons boom they summon ye, as they pace this talk: "embrace the darkness-- take the walk." and quiver, still in depths of Hell in the beckon's curl of grin; "Come ye," snarls the ferryman.." A standing 8 count? Weebles wobble, but they don't fall down. Nice to see ya back.... |

Karen...You already know how I 'see' this one, but I'll say it again. This just begs to be 'chanted' around a huge bonfire. Its rhythm and flow is just haunting... I couldn't stop reading it...over and over and over...'chanting'...  Very cool, lady.

I think I am going to listen to some Dr. John. ...and watch the sights that fill my nights as flights of wights dance rites with lights and scale the heights around my weary head... *grin* |

First they gotta catch me!  If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |
