RainSitting outside in the rain for hours Watching natures phenomenal showers Feeling the waters soak me through Sat here smiling and thinking of you Imagining your touch on my wet skin Feeling the warmth taking hold within Sweet rapture at the very deliberation Makes my insides melt with anticipation Two souls embracing in natures tears Allowing the waters to wash away our fears For that moment it would be just you and I Under a blanket of clouds watching them cryRain


Unknown SilhouetteHow could you see through the eyes Into the very depths of the soul? Deep into the fires that dwellUnknown Silhouette
Yet find good inside to extol?
How could you look into the heart
Seeing the darkness that resides?
Yet still believe that virtues existed
Ones only the soul can provide
How did you believe there still was life Behind such a desolate exterior ? How did you believe a heart still bled

So sat she did and she pondered over the past and present ordeal Thinking hard she wondered on what this dark night would reveal

Oh world! be still; this moment’s time Need be held close in memories’ depths First love is always new, sublime Where in our minds the feeling’s kept.
But as the dawn drags down to dusk So first love’s spark to weary dust.


Your EyesThe Earth and all her jubilee and might, and self-inflicted hardship overcome, and doctrine forged to settle wrong and right no more can tell her doctors from the Sun-Your Eyes
with science and scripture stirred and made the same, and idols cast from dirt and lust and gold, and sunlight ploughed and passed a clever name, and beauty culled and bought and used and sold,
thus, sun and beauty bound and in a mew, as each one treads your lashes and your hair, but glossy doctrines cast and mould and skew; and you can't tell the sunlight from the glare-

You stopped by some time ago and added Peppy Little Triolet to your "Breathtaking" collection, picked Fortean Lines as a favorite and collected Candy Cane into your cache of "Poetry and Prose." Then you came back a couple of days ago and nabbed 3 of 1 OULIPO + 4, too.
You like ALL the wacky shit, don't you?
I'm glad you're enjoying it. Thanks for saying so.

Thanks this time for collecting The March of the Eleventy-Ten," possibly the wackiest of the wacky shit so far.
You're being far too kind.
