foreground in silence
a breathless day
while the sun rises a mile away

a new jacket speaks
the leather voice
tiny passions in cold air

camera full of black and whites
your letters written
nothing trite

and how it is we concur
our addiction to this
blur
the strangers in the glass
ask seeking
why all the leaving
I move more towards

then against

hungry for everything
we shall not have
sated for nothing
that is all ours

Editing stage: 

Comments

richer
emotive
cursive passion
and darkly tricked out

babe those are yours
You, you deserve them
and these
are the quiet musings
outside the private
realm
ot apt pupil
and distant teacher

or the impressionist painting of the bartendress ladie
who had no reflection in the glass behind her
Little tricks to say
WTF
(Monet)
love those moments
living them is trippy but worth it sometimes

Thanks Lonnie!

filled with sound.

lou

Stand tall, be proud to be who you are, give the world the finger!!!!

on still days..how sound carries then
on either haze or clear cool days

and leather jackets..I owned two in my days
and own a beautiful bomber style one now

and in reflection we think of things too

Thank You

author comment

our heartbeat wave
flickering in this slick land
like rain winds beating
how you ride within
my love
how you glide thin
like a tender pressed
dream in the book
of silences....
