i used to find you in there
i used to go looking twice a day
at least once anyway
maybe more
and there you'd be
smiling
leaning against the wall
ready for action
just as peaceful as could be
red bucket of paint ready
for things that comfort me
in a round about way

like that round about way
i found you in there...


but you're gone now aren't you?
flesh not flesh
bone not bone
brush not brush
not brush for me

the bucket of paint spilt stained
that no one sees
but me

the rushes dry under match light
smoke flame fire
doused in an ocean of my sighs

there is no understanding must need versus love lust
red paint versus red rust
skin dust
or a snowflake
fell wanted for us
~all is full of love~

    much to my exclamation point's surprise
    is but a parenthetical asterisk...

    brilliant......love it.
    Seek It
  • after several hours of chasing gremlins that insist upon
    swimming in the entropy they create
    i come upon a moment's reprieve
    and standing at the back door
    i let the wind curl around my left breast
    love the icy rain that dots my face and exposed skin
    temporarily transported to the first time
    when oceans crashed the cliffs below me
    and the wind curled around my left breast
    creating eddies in the recesses of my mouth
    wide open
    impressed with bliss
    and wanting more
    ~all is full of love~
  • but that's probably not the eddies you had in mind.

    Aw, those moments of calm that tempest's bring. Glad you got a chance to "take 5" and turn from Mother to Poet, especially when there wasn't a phone booth around to change in.

    You should direct the video to "Strangest Tribe"

  • Eeeeny meeeeny meeiny mo.....
  • catch a tiger by the toe
    if she hollers let her go...
