the island vine writes grapes in rolled up messages jammed in seafaring bottles Remorse code tapped out on telegraph keys Tap, Tap, Tap, tap tap tap Tap, Tap, Tap, on Tenterhooks she waits as bottles wash on Barren shores readers drink taps and slashes razors red and black nails, desire and thirst lust in crimson verse they Drink drunk from shore borne bottles and thirst again more more but they Leave her on her island like forgotten grapes a Tear falls like silk on the tigress cheek she waits for someone to drink her instead of crushed lexis pressed from her broken heart and Withers as her fruit multiplies leaving nothing before ashes |

Reb, I don't remember reading this the first time around...maybe I did, and maybe this time? I took it in on a whole new level.... I've been learning lately, even more than before, each new day brings the old mold into break-new life.... it's a long story... but it's a good one. |
