And draped as she was to the arched back of chair It was a ligatures of dreams knotted across Naked thighs of phrasing that held closest Flesh to a twisted real Where hands twined strands of hair Between chapped knuckles stretching back The throat bared of vowels till of the songs sung By twilight wind upon stripped limbs There were but moans To haunt within a recessed pattern of shadows The corner of eyes She sat there As in the midst of verse I found fine glyphs Incised within the surface of stone Recounting a foreign tongued swallow of silken words Turning upon the slow lips to beg For flesh against the salt of sea so found In the wet of some midnight dream That left me spent of dry mouthed curse To bring the rain And pray a quench of such parched desire To stroke soft the curves of her In a writhe of half eyed craze Where she craved a line ellipsed A pause to breathe Braided knots untied I found the fibers within marrow As I turned a four over leaf to hitch Bared vein to hers And flow the strings of words That runs to black upon a page Another day Another tome of strangled phrase to shut hard The breath of me As she inhales and We bleed Shared veins |

"As in the midst of verse I found fine glyphs Incised within the surface of stone Recounting a foreign tongued swallow of silken words Turning upon the slow lips to beg For flesh against the salt of sea so found In the wet of some midnight dream That left me spent of dry mouthed curse To bring the rain And pray a quench of such parched desire To stroke soft the curves of her In a writhe of half eyed craze Where she craved a line ellipsed A pause to breathe" I love to read you....LOVE to...and you always leave me wanting more |

Ron "To bring the rain And pray a quench of such parched desire To stroke soft the curves of her In a writhe of half eyed craze Where she craved a line ellipsed A pause to breathe" It has been dry around here without your words...it's very good to read you!! |

As in the midst of verse I found fine glyphs Incised within the surface of stone Recounting a foreign tongued swallow of silken words Turning upon the slow lips to beg For flesh against the salt of sea so found In the wet of some midnight dream That left me spent of dry mouthed curse whoa...I gotta tell you, you not only amaze, with your stories, but truly make the reader ache for more...this was tremendous, tintilating, mysterious, and full, simply full of open air visuals for the mind to go anywhere with. Marvelous write! |

Where she craved a line ellipsed A pause to breathe ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I see you havent lost your touch...but then I never thought you would... "passing grains of sand...carried by the flow...rivers never sleep" I'll bare the brunt of your long buried pain |

Dynamic...that's the word for this, and for all your poetry. Yes, dynamic will do just fine.....depth, power, energy, movement, change that comes quickly even within stasis....dynamic. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

My humble..and sincere thanks to you all who have read and commented..or just passed by... the company I work for is being sold and the summer months have come and gone, with me being involved in the secretive world of providing data for negotiations, deceiving the people around me who didn't know what is going on...and coming to terms with the death of my mother.... tomorrow.... brings a new set of problems to solve as I work to figure out what to do with the rest of my working life..try to find a job...go into business for myself..or what.... my absence..will continue.. but I wanted to thank you all...and to let those who might come back to this and read...know what is going on... for those of you with my old e-mail address, be advised...it won't get to me any longer and I have not established an new one.. many many.. heartfelt thank yous... to all who have read and supported my feeble efforts here.. may god bless.... you all |
