Cresting me even with odd Oh laughing lips of smooth beach Gold familiar names moved To the inn of nature’s soul Lavished 101 fortunes fill my mind With soft sighs and noontides Sun fingers council misgivings Weeping to seize those moments That ran dry with my silent flight Numbering all my faults With courage under fire And a long, long way to see Forever changed and branded Like a cow giving sour milk From watching horror films I remember my happy girlhood Reciting prayers on my knees Hands folded begging For nationwide evening stars To fill they’re hungry little bodies In those 3rd world countries You know the ones on TV? I rest in my cubical Thinking it to be a palace Somewhere in the middle of the world Pondering about the Ark Wondering why they can’t find it And He had the nerve to call my life dull? Will it surface during floods? The Ark…pay attention, will ya? In this reality of illusions or Some sick little strict law? Or will all Gods and Goddesses Wiggle their noses With a touch that only the beauty of love knows Mapping directions to that place With no abrasions Until then, sipping on green pastures In my boring little world Shifting axis’s every minute of the day as I shake my fist while screaming "Don't you dare ever lie to me again" Even in omission Angry? you betcha But smile, because of the hand that feeds me |

Lee As usual I work through your words and find them inspirational, probably because I can't understand them but in my usual fashion, my attempt at understanding. dave Drinking of solitude Remembering dangerous encounters Running odds On a smile and desire Of inner sense and meaning And He had the nerve to call my life dull? Like a Sheriff's toll road Will it surface during floods? Mapping directions to that place With no abrasions Bottoming out But smile, because of the hand that feeds me |

I rest in my cubical Thinking it to be a palace Somewhere in the middle of the world Pondering about the Ark Wondering why they can’t find it Awesome thoughts, powerfully expressed! Love and hugs. Margherita  |
