Ok, the dirt

Post by the mingo » September 18th, 2017, 12:06 am

Ok, the dirt is rambunctious, sure,
may I suggest you dine from my basket
while I knit icicles ?

every poem a decay unit
broken & bright all at once
erratic & wounded -

things do not depend on what we have done
and that is hilarious
Doll, you may have found a place of rest but I'm still on the trail.

I see ants and a picnic blanket. I feel the beat of a cold heart. I see lost and tattered love poems that once brought much happiness but then broke the heart of the one they were to. The last two lines. . .hummmmm. . .accusations unwarranted but believed just the same. But that is just my take. Interesting read. :)

Thx, Ann - appreciate it - glad you got out of it what you did - it's just a construct of chance operations for me, a submarine of sorts in attempt of reaching or creating a bridge where things can cross -
