ROMANCE IN ALL ITS GLORY









HE SAID...

In retrospect, my life has been

a blue blur of contradiction

a rolling juggernaut of misjudgment

charging headlong through the rain

and pissing into the wind...

A constellation of calamity

chasing dust devil dreams

down a star speckled highway

in a last-ditch attempt

to catch the champagne

night flight to nirvana...

SHE SAID...

Well, HELL then...here's my phone number!

  4. Very nice and you have touched that part of me that stirs with the wind and echoes the calls of each dark night. Oh I am captured, laid out naked upon the branches of pen and paper. Seduced I am by the words of a stranger.
