There is a crow feather in my book it is the color of a varnished rain cloud. It is not accountable, so may touch the crease between what was and what will be. It's raining now, the sound just so, like wings beating time itself. Has feather fallen from its hold while I am dreaming crow?. |

How odd....I just wrote a poem, also esoteric, also with a single crow feather in it, and I was going to post it this morning....Where's Rod Serling when you really need him? Think I'll go post it anyway! ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

It is not accountable, so may touch the crease between what was and what will be. ======================= your poetry is what will be in my book.  and only you could come up with "varnished rain cloud" yer so kewl  "How could I stand here with you and not be moved by you." |

And it did, didn't it -- with, as you said, no accountability at all. But feathers are easy; the trick is to fly without them. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |
