Miles can be closed,
but not without a scar -
Books say bipedalism exposes the weak underside;
every human standing in a swamp
contemplates this -
Some days I wish to shout your name from the highways
in the erratic hope that you will come swiftly -
It hisses and I cannot tell
whether it will rain or
if everyone is in a hurry -
Swollen
with sounds of the city -
Bound to the wires and wands,
the bells ring and the roads clack,
but through its heart, it does not flutter, -
The surgeon lives downstairs, listening
as the street fights echoing with metal in the alley
bring his pen to tap on Sunday’s oceanograph -
Beauty revolves around a certain grace,
Whether in preference, the feral and the tranquil,
is decidedly best on certain terms; -
Fancy how much thriving care
as it sprials in trenches,
sewers underground and wars the same; -
-
With coffee planning to revive
The ailing spirit and broken course
While the journalist worries for the day -
Let your old, starving journalist touch you
And tell the tale that left her so; -
A nymph in confusion, flighty

Between nature and humanity,
The former is supremecyby Lace Nightmare 13 lines, 2 comments, on Mar 23 5:17 PM 2008. In Thoughts, Nature, Inspirational, Personal -
Fret not, stay armed
Bring hooks over the shoulder -
Lovely sometimes to don a sunrise,
Heavier, the weighted earth -
Real and tangible with knowledge,
And yet so giving as to stow away quiet beauty
For a still day when all seems meant for peace -
Take what is learned And slice it into the skin
-
Yet in crouching fingers made from stone and grass,
Night can overturn and rest, perhaps sleep, into the years -
For in synch the eye, tongue, and heart must so deftly be
That foreign and familiar emotion dare not trickle in like lonely rain -
And so is the revival / Of the nonsense we toasted upon / In nocturnal hours of mechanical invasion; / A revolution meant to stir us into flavor / Headlights reflected on the dash / And old Sunday mornings somb

The sordid lines only grew so much, / My Cyrano only a chalk outline / As his memory was pawned / And honesty pacified into slumber; / Let a writer come forth over the horizon / As rings fall from ladies’ fingers pl

Suddenly schizophrenia seems warm / In this rush of welcoming and commencement / Though unforgiving in mind and matter, / But where have I gone? / Off to nowhere without a difference / To remain in one space leby Lace Nightmare 23 lines, 2 comments, on Jun 15 10:44 PM 2007.

Book / Clubs / And the pounding of my / Heart / As I mined and upturned / The reaches of my brain / Worked with dirt / And / Spade in handby Lace Nightmare 15 lines, 4 comments, on May 29 7:54 PM 2007. In Society, Contemporary, Weird, Personal

The book she held so cautiously to be given
To his pronounced notes as he leaped from
His generous tree -
"This should be illegal" / As we giggled in our happy pair / With wary clerks shuffling over meat counters; / A substance most obvious / As we held it out for the crowd / Saying: "I love it more" / "No,

There's a fire, / Wild, wild, spiraling / As he digs into my arms, dizzying / For this throng of passion / We will be the sacrifical right

Then to my quarters I would stay
And loathe the idea of skipping the magnificence
Of the howling and baying wolves in such a distance -
Carmen, red-haired blonde
With a card up her sleeveby Lace Nightmare 22 lines, 3 comments, on May 17 10:11 PM 2007. In Friendship, Thoughts, Life, Abstract -
To those much like this badge I wear,
These clothes and ring of people,
To see inner peace and a love since disguised -
As their lifeless story ends under bridges
By the water lilies, they are blue as water -
As the road sputtered with rain
Where a black umbrella meant unhappiness -
But I imagine you adore my shuffling
Of white rabbit feet;
