    That's cute, qimissung.

    my poetry
    has gone
    to maryland
    with you
    "I’ve tasted all the sweetest creams
    and danced with daisies in dazed delight;
    sunny skies pervade my dreams
    and light the dark of earthly scenes..."

    Lewis knew
    the mirror,
    somewhere,
    a world apart

    fangs deep
    in
    my heel.

    sludge in excess
    culled by children stamping
    grey
    and somehow a dog
    has taken itself & its tail considerably away
    into the mountains or sea or sky, leaving
    behind: me, wag.
    - John Berryman

    I'm in love with The Vinegar Man and Mr. Tanner, but be careful, it could just as easily be you.

    the silver lining
    now lost
    behind
    the cloud
    "O reason, reason, abstract phantom of the waking state, I had already expelled you from my dreams, now I have reached a point where those dreams are about to become fused with apparent realities: now there is only room here for myself. "
    -Louis Aragon

    in a drain-pipe;
    life occurs.
