trouble with a dead lover

[the mingo]

trouble with a dead lover
is you no longer have
anyone left to hold onto
and can't let go

[judih]

deadless weight
armless hugs
yet there you are

[the mingo]

yup, sad truths
are always a bitch -
some days i just shake
my cute little green meanie weenie at 'em
and go, "AHA !"

Thx 68 - we all should act to lift each other up whenever the opportunity arises - even when we don't know that's what we are doing - Thank you -
