a scribe sits beside a praying mantis amongst tall grass breathing Savannah air while frantic mosquitoes sink skinny fangs into pale pink skin to feed on fresh red deviant pink floyd words vaguely pass tell me what you see, what is that you see tell me what you feel, what is that you feel all that you touch and all that you can see all that you taste can … be such a huge waste while you darken the right side of the moon screaming when there is … none lending a ear like loonies singing love songs out of tune there is no light seen as bright is seated in eclipsed shadows of hollow hallways dimmed by synthetic flickers of high hopes forming a haze around all that is real ....... (breathe... breathe in the air) [This message has been edited by Sudhir Iyer (05-04-2004 06:45 AM).] |

all that you taste can … be such a huge waste while you darken the right side of the moon screaming when there is … none lending a ear like loonies singing love songs out of tune enjoyed your words...smiling at the ending... nothing like a fresh breath of air M |
