Tell me again why I deserve such space and time, the physics to fantasize deeply driven darkened thoughts, lying akimbo in my Jesus Christ pose, like a whirligig spun out of control, crashing to burn before I am set on fire. Not unlike the sweetened blush of a lone, fresh petal the velveteen rush of blood coming straight through roots to air brushing my lips, moistening my cheek, each petal soundly sleeping . . . a reverie between one dream and another, concealing the source in the deep-surge of some aspen night, how it takes, how it cherishes, the palewhite slowfast moth threads the burning pillars of rosepetals, all split, all spilt over the hour of calm and silences spill over your willing, dark throat, lower now, shadows cast no bodies but these, beaten silver with hands to arrest this eternal moment, in a semblance of black rain, perishing into ache. Tell me again out of what vehemence could we slow this vertigo... |

Tres belle. I was looking forward to this, but didn't expect it so soon! If I were to touch you, would you bleed a velvet river, running miracles through the sodden ground? --Moi |

This is pretty much as expected..Thick and rich. Quite a dance ladies! "Velveteen" and "vehemence" in the same write, a conceit of each methinks. And they said it couldn't be done...lol |

I love it when birds of a feather dance together (two of my very favorite people) that don't even know yet how alike they truly are. ![]() |

Thank you so much Sharon, Kacy and Maureen, My God much too good to us and me, always have been . . . A Jesus Christ pose the way I meant was well, kind of tired, like JC was at the end . . . Soundgarden wrote a tune entitled that and it seemed to fit right here. Thanks guys . . . |

I forgot to save the thing that is why I forgot this! Good thing you reminded me to save it, as when two birds of a feather fluff feathers together - the down is the softest ever! I can still beg for another can't I? Making a duet book and need it filled - lots of room yet. One day my girls when they are grown up will say, "Boy Gramma sure knew a lot of good poets." Either that, or "Man was she was crazy to collect all this stuff!" ![]() Anyway I love you two and you know it! |
