finding gravity i watch Scorpio sink into her realm her jointed stinger an erection of emotion her pincers snapping at stars trying to keep Orion at bay he seems to be laying low tonight his weaponry dim this is unusual for him the sky drapes over my shoulders and you my love tower my thoughts there’ve been too many nights without to suddenly now be with if you could only feel my words touch them with your finger tips the way you touch your fly-by passion Orion shoots an arrow it crosses the black finding gravity i find myself wishing upon it for us but like Scorpio i'll continue to snap my pincers like Orion you'll continue to shoot your arrows they’ll only find gravity and i’ll keep wishing upon them for us fate is not just whose cooking smells good but which way the wind blows (Ani DiFranco) [This message has been edited by Dark Angel (09-27-2003 03:00 AM).] |

Maree, Wow! I’m gonna have to break out my son’s little telescope and check this stuff out! It must have been real creative and curious people like yourself. Who long ago, laid down under the night sky, and conjured up all these fantastic astrological figures. And all the great stories that went with them. Talk about romantic! This was so cool Maree! I love your imagination! Richy |

Maree, this is so wonderful. I must admit, I have been "brain blocked" in my own writing lately. You, however, have let the words and images flow so exquisitely, calling me to attempt to capture that which has escaped me for too long. I believe it is called INSPIRATION! Thanks! Patricia |

In winter months, Orion rises directly over the home where I grew up... I guess that's why there's something about seeing that constellation that grounds me. *S* But I always, always, make a wish. *S* This is a beautiful write... I enjoyed it tremendously. *S* |

Especially loved the closing Mmy- very cool poem. ... and what a treat-- a poem from both Babyroo and Tigger in the same week. Hugs ![]() There is society where none intrudes, by the deep sea, and music in its roar. |
