june you entered early entered vengeful entered strong you, a storm: a nor’easter crashing an angry sea, something screaming – (my windows this house all stability in this town shaken) june where i was aching where i was coping where in your early days would dream of something more than the undoing and the drain something more than the worry you tore me small and then smaller you wore me out and down june i tried to drink you i tried to write you out of me i tried to numb myself until you left for good and your leaving, it is approaching it is nearing fast june june where i was not hungry where i did not eat or swim where i did not grow at all - so long. |

and you are my rain in a drought.  Thank you for showing up tonight. (Who was that masked poet?) sigh... thank you for writing this June? I only knew one woman named June. She was a bitch.  I like to burn calendars too. |

every sentence told a story wild with images, and a lost feeling anger, disappointment...truly...a wonderful bittersweet write.... Hugs to you |

"june where i was aching where i was coping where in your early days would dream of something more than the undoing and the drain something more than the worry you tore me small and then smaller you wore me out and down june" yanno...now that I think about, you are right. June wasn't fun at all and usually June is my favorite month. goodbye to June. and you wrote it with perfection and grace. "too bad ignorance isn't painful" |

ALicia, so good to read you again. As impressive as ever. Sounds awfully hurtful. I'm sorry. Sandra |
