and so... the spirit of a pirouette shall rouse threads that grandmother placed on the mantle i’m happy with this weave by chance so what! if the dust shall rise on inverted twilight? let me begin what pretty much paled like a butterfly bush, down on it’s knees during winter snarling at the cold, stamping it’s feet at fussiness my toothless smile wears a special chair all cozy with a child’s plastic bib willful & stolid, songs of molten days left behind... all wrung out with power to hear i must feed the hallway a new coat of paint before true life has something to say be it by angels or the gangster of some low common denominator…. surely my smoke signals will be seen by the fist of candle light flames! oh, the coo of any given moment suspends, segmented clots of parallelism inheriting unexpected bibles sliding down languid rumors of some digital camera’s chin repeating the show & tell of a girl on that postcard swimming out to sea... her sleeveless, clinging dress speaks as if, at any given moment in time, she’d open her wings, migrating into any day after monday i love you so much, music of the night! oft deeply moving, your talcum with gills, as i grow larger, the thought of subverting some chauvinist pout, gives me a reassuring pat on the ass, of transformation opening the day like some top notched samurai, peering into my kitchen, kissing the mint tea on my microwave, just to hear my faint guitar drizzle, a mellow light of dream which i slowly turn into, just to feel it’s maddening whispers of long afternoons…. i’m powerlessly naked gray hair and all and i love the richness, returning to my pockets like the headlines on friday’s, new york times! nothing is forced or focused yet, the lace on my breasts kiss and drinks the swell, of contented secrets i shall not share! become my resume for the wind of ages while curling my unpainted toes bite my ears softly i’m a toga of warmth underneath this shawl... looking out from a hazy peak i say... hmmmm, lets have another frozen margarita! Excitement, surprise shall we dance with a growing shadow? loving measures the darkness and gets even, while i change my contacts and burn that bra I wore in 1999 so, go ahead take my job! |

Bravo!-Applause....  I enjoyed the whole poem, but S-4 was exceptional, in my opinion...that is where you hit high gear, and metaled the pedal... Loved the ride, the poem moves with force, all the way to the finish line... -----------ice ><> |

“i’m powerlessly naked gray hair and all and i love the richness, returning to my pockets like the headlines on friday’s, new york times!“ What a wonderful verse. Your write is filled with powerful verses, but this one speaks volumes. Beautiful, as always, beautiful. Great write Lee J. JL |
