Mixing up present reality Can we? Lets try, huh? Songs of infected humor reflecting crematoriums Insinuating sweetness Among burning ruins Stays alone on the streets Blood run & infested Used up by permission Is emotional the imagined one? Meters propel some soul of “might ends” Encountering the history of existence How Weary it must be? What I wanted was “ground time” Seemingly innocent Like banana bread I’m a nothing pedestrian That you wouldn’t ordinarily notice Yet to deny a holiday dinner Imagine, every thing that wouldn’t be said We can take an airplane back to college We’re human beings using up human rights Articulating insecurities Tonight I’ll pray and ask “Where is God?” Has my ground time been put to death? |

We have....only what we make, and in large part, only what we make and give away. Ground time shall be mine today, Manhattan Beach, watching my grown-up son play sand volleyball (for money now)....and building memories of that, of sun, of sand, of family, of life. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

These lines really affected me: 'Insinuating sweetness/Among/burning ruins'. LeeJ, I find your words enchanting. You have true talent |
