Loose Thread I pulled a thread in my heart and Unraveled a sensitive part Raw to the touch, sore to the dream A thread that opened a seam A tone was set, a step of woe On which my dragon stubbed his toe And smoke and fire belched in cry And angry red stained his eye And from the roaring came a flood Dammed up brine that turned to blood That rang out in an echoes cry And turned the sky to livid lie. Thunder splashed and lightning flashed And crashed to jagged thoughts backlash Stained the pallor of my skin And turned my thinking into spin Reared a hydra’s head of verse That ended in a stream of curse That sent me into wiles of Hyde Actions that I could not abide It opened up Pandora’s box Set free once more the paradox. |

Seymour - my goodness, what a write this morning! How do you manage? Each day is a new beginning I know - but - I guess your muse has no need of rest. Unlike some of us whose muses often vacate their homes totally!! lol. Toast and blueberry jam with tea? lovely. ![]() "At one glance |
