my hands are the crows of stone on perch not to fly but to cry with finger pluck the beaking strike on the bites of sound songs symbol by symbol on broken wing there are walls with leaves flat faced they peer at my eyes to catch my winds and bend them lest there is flight through keyholes and the locks of a lover's dreams are picnicked spoonless empty sighs left as stains on a bosom's shimmering like a hurried licking's leftovers without the sabbath's refrigeration _____________ daark scribblenote: penspeak, wordspit, waiting to exit the orifice of the poet's mind in some logical order |

ms karen, (and I fear no evil cause I am demean) a poem for you? they all are no? (grin) bourbon street serene you wear the morning edges like sighs on velvet moments something jazzy with wickedry but a little girl giggles and your fingers are hers when you cover your mouth and smile another day's dawn with the tears of a woman's eyes _______________________ ms gs, thanks for the eye play ms. |

Oh my, the title poem is fine. But then the one thrown into the reply string-it makes me gasp. Nan (Pilgrim variety) |
