Soaked A prune has soaked the rain of whim And filled upon the strain of grim Stuck within an egos clog Floundering within the bog It holds onto an alter tie A fraying rope of woven why Wearing on the pendulums rhyme Rasping on the wear of time Below me lies the dark abyss I hang this fraying cannabis Within the era of my space And cannot find a brace of base My voice is dry with sounds of cry And all that’s left is self deny But what would be the good of this When hanging by frayed cannabis When it tares I’ll let my core And fly or sink to evermore |

You paint quite an unusual picture of yourself ~ soaking wet and hanging from a fraying rope of cannibis that is swaying back and forth like a pendulum! ~ but you're still adorable! Kind of like Tarzan in his golden years! EA |

rock-a-bye Sy babe in the treetop your rhythmn and rhyme babe has not gone to pot although the hemp rope frays your wisdom not stalled your wonderful words seem to come when they're called Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |
