  • Mood: complacent
  • Music: Bowl of Cherries
Still...

Time hazards
burned-out lights
and wet sheets.
Where the hand was
stronger than the
fist.
Warrants for watches
late hour memoirs stained
worn-out pleats.
A time when a man
and a woman both felt
a whispered kiss.

Fingering the toering
from a tree whose
mood swings.
Living for breathing
yet feeding off
dark skies.
Agreed to seed
concrete gardens and
broken things.
Seven seasons dreaming
of luck where polished
glass lies.

Darkness is for dungeons
or holes or
city hall.
Locking minds molding
smoldering pipe
freedom.
Juxtaposed anthologies
where and how and who
is on the wall.
And you look
still beautiful still
whenever dreams may come.

Bowl of Cherries is the greatest.

Is this one of your poems? I'm having to read and re-read it. "Fingering the toering from a tree whose mood swings" I wish I'd written that...what an image!
