i fly off handles, my tongue drips with road kill butterflies in ink cover the bite of the crazygirl when i see red, i pull no punches and take no prisoners i am a freed egg dripping arsenic on steamy summernight sidewalks, i am a crimson fountain sprung from a clogged arterie a faucet pouring wet paint down the drain, i met a poet that hid behind a screen he wore the hat of a rainmaker, and sent me rainbows in boxes i sent him goldenlocks sealed with kisses, he wooed me from afar from the land of prize pigs and blue ribbon applepies, he made for us, a brass bed, trimmed in rose petals, then wouldn't change the old sheets, couldn't perform past the screen, i hear he's taken the concorde, leaving his rat droppings, going global now, he still scratches, beneath the surface tho, like a fungus and adds hot pepper to my poetic soup, i can see his head floating in it now, like a big purple cabbage, words that used to ring him in magical moonbeams now swim between fish bones, waiting to be discarded in the garbage disposal, dont worry tho, girliegirls, i still have a trump card out there, im okay ,you're okay we can comfort eachother on the ledge no one is going to jump, i wake some mornings wishing i could just love another woman, i still cling to hope that love exists beyond the first kiss, that maybe the man in the moon will one day release the lover that eludes me etc.etc.etc. and the beat goes on...........................

thanks bill.....yes, in your face at times, thats me...thanks for the wow you too, angelblue sue, so glad to get u to laugh....and you know , you know....yep , undescribable, can u tell me who i am? lol.... dreamyboy....yes, yes, so right....but the exorcism may just about complete, the priest has left the building and the soup will boil out into steam pretty soon....vanish into the nothingness that it sprang from, for some godforsaken reason that it happened at all....lesson for cyberfrogs....do not say the L word, and then stand a goddess up for coffee....that is just so so uncool...... a real man wouldn't do that, would he?

Lots of anger released and I hope for the last time. The final last time. Frogs hop away...keep it away. Powerful read. |
