Adonis & Cassandra Insanity, the tamed mind of a seasoned bed wetter with a Draconian grandmother who smites the water boy when time to go becomes time to leave. Loose women and loose men! Latter does not exist latter is considered lucky, lucky lad with the ladies. Women though, they shall make men into Pez dispensers, so when time comes to speak they can just pull back the head to give candy and maybe flowers too. Things that are forgotten and old have been replaced. A progenitor lodged between my toes will, tomorrow, sing, "Nobody knows the trouble I've seen." Granddad has seemed quite small these days. They who flirts, feels dandiest and understands things like composition of monkey glands! A fraternal belief that disbelief in this macrocosm full of maternal figures is crux to achieve purity of the spleen. Yellow vegetables and other forms of dark sunglasses. I see, I see, Isis bullwhipping Narcissus to quit looking at himself and do the dishes. I see, I see, someone who sees all things gnarled, gnarly and pretty. Yes it's me... |

It seems we are on the way to a return of Matriarchy ... it's the eternal circle ... but every time around there will be hopefully also evolution, so that none of the sexes loses. A complex, interesting poem! I had to check Pez Dispensers ... now I know ... a little sweetness brings always joy. Love, Margherita |

As always, I find certain lines mesmerizing... have to tear myself away from them because the whole is always worth knowing... excellent! |

Edward, I, too, found this very interesting and mesmerizing. Unlike Margherita, I have no clue whether we are becoming a matriarch or patriarch society-sometimes I wonder if we lack both! Oh, on the brighter side, I found your poem intriquing. misc |

Women though, they shall make men into Pez dispensers, so when time comes to speak they can just pull back the head to give candy and maybe flowers too. This is on-the-money! I know these people, but briefly! Welcome back. I hope your sojourn into the real has brought you more material for wanderings into the surreal. I have missed your musings through my days of lurking.
