the hollow sky seashell of empty gathers winds in her womb and wears slippers to the ball the backs of the ravens are but songs that the night strums with her breezes when they fly by the amber leaves of pretending oaks with lazy leans and goofy foot pretending roots where only edges remain pacifica is that gypsy mothering streams giving them the breasts of horizons to fill their scars with sand and the panting teeth of their weeds before her tomorrows make tears that turn them to rivered sins what god will be their coffee house then __________daark |

As usual Dark, it was a pleasure to read. The whole poem was a gem but what really punched me in the face was "the panting teeth". I don't know where it all comes from but keep it coming. Cheers - Ed "Give me a museum, and I'll fill it." |

Your poems always catch at my breath. They have an edge to them that makes me trip over the meaning and go back for a second look. I find myself 'reaching' to balance. Wonderful art! |

You remind me of a wonderful tree I even sat on its roots... as if a throne. Keep writing. |
