Studio8 - Uniting the Arts

locked in my house, rain tangoing sideways

mind wandering to an oxbow lake

settling upon what it spent eons on

it weaved and relaxed, set back in the pillow

and settled like a child in the night



dead end roads and cul de sac daily

mouth watering chances, sojourns in the dark

dankness surrounds me in my pleatherette comfort

comforted still, my eyes close and see night



can't change what i do, and some of what i did

can't change anything but determined and right

in this dark starred day of hope and foreshadow

my mouth doesn't smile but the rest does tonight

oh - this is gorgeous, knip and i lucked out and read it to a banner done by alicia peri of a guitar player.

is there music to this? it sounds like it

Indeed it does read like music. So glad I ran into this...
It's beautiful...

yes there is, i just haven't written it yet

Really wonderful, knip. It is raining drips and drops here right now, really fits the mood of the poem... I love, LOVE rainy days, storms, mists and fogs, closed into myself with three purring cats ... Sue♥♥♥
