Feast of Assumption of Mary lady dresses slowly properly lost in intention closes window against tradewinds smell of wisteria and him altar boys red and white vestments remember lady’s own child ankles thin body running in poleward flow now held in doldrums dangerously becalmed kneels prays right hand intercession for sins of the left hand body and soul carries pain to mère sainte carefully as thin porcelain cup from Maman’s house begs release from peekôn curse of him skip footin’ light forgiven lady dips pink toes in bayou smells patchouli cuts eyes roue jaunting her way baptized in cigar smoke Panama hat long brown fingers soft voice speaks allons craving soul condamné again |

Like so many here, I follow charcoal man and his lady through their romance. We are so lucky to have your work. I think serious consideration must be given to further exposure of this couple, and your gift. I am truly a fan. Sandra |

kneels prays right hand intercession for sins of the left hand body and soul carries pain to mère sainte carefully as thin porcelain cup from Maman’s house begs release from peekôn curse of him ~*~ seems to me this will all last a lifetime of sighs... well done, Lady. |
