telephone pole was big enough to block sunshine
but not day, sort of as strung up conversation
echoes appreciation in comparison
crying made into crayon
that fully pencils
French or any could see
as extra syllable of gladness or...
creatively regesturing gestation
until not just by huge ball of life yarn
with empire waist mothering stalled in barn
so body doesn't merely get gigantic without kick
to give idea exaggeratively in its geriatric time
and truthfully but not toothfully the history's
legitimacy in that it matters way down
more than a little memory by a mare
how do I resaddle speech
with lalas of size in place
where's the frown yet on my face photographing
it all still
I want to keep living to have that question answered
a unique you need
liberation by a hope

This seems very abstract to me. I've read it three times and although I have noted sound techniques, I seem to be missing the overall point of the write.

I deffinatly see potential in this...but it seemed
like you were missing a lot of words, like I began
to see an image but was soon lost because the
bridges of your words didn't connect. Make sense??
