The Mind Minds are born a ferment of grime Cooked in fire a moment of time Spiced illusion enough for taste Nothing is ever left to waste Horizons are walls of your room The stars are the straws of your broom The sun adds the power of tricks And your mind the core of the mix You may stay or you may withdraw But minds are born of grime once more And time will cook the ferments grill Weather or not you stay the bill I cannot tell you why or when Nor can I point out now or then I cannot take your hand and sigh O’er horizons I cannot fly It’s up to you to fill the bill As you can see I’m here yet still |

Some minds are grime from ferment fruit Fried from hop and home grown "root" I think my mind can't fill the bill (Too many trips to a moonshine still). Psai, I hope things are going great for you, I hope you're staying in touch with Balladeer and visiting him frequently at that assisted living home he's in as I'm sure he's quite lonely. Yall take care now ya hear?.... |

I cannot take your hand and sigh O’er horizons I cannot fly What do you mean you "cannot"? I believe that you can and do with each and every poem that you gift us with. hugs, Chris |

Not too many minds as grimy as Toe's. Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. |

Does that apply to the high minded, those who have half-a-mind and those whose minds are in the gutter, too? Enjoyed this. Rae |

Toerag You are really a wick sharpened to a wit, for you dip into ink more than you think. But I do enjoy your baiting the bear That growls so loud at the sight of the snare. I am well thank you. Nancy Thank you my sweet. serenity Don't have any sugar, but i'll send you some bees to get you some honey. Chris What would I do without your honey. Interloper Toe's mind is not grimy Perhaps a little to hammy. sandgrain It applies to all the afore mentioned. Thanks for the read and reply Kethry I'll be on cloud nine for the next few days. Thank you. |
