The rose of Solift is being read as we speak: Hurray! Ti Jean is enjoying it tremendously and finds it very creative.

Tonight I am writing poetry :

_________________________________________

By the looks of it

I have a good leg again

By the looks of it

I am drunk again

By the scent of it

You mean well

By the scent of it

You kissed so good

By the walk of it

You carry me with you

By the walk of it

I am there too

By the swearing on it

I erase my mistake

By the swearing on it

We embrace

—————————————————————————

I had a vision of a canary

bright and yellow and suave

singing every morning

and every day

enough to drive you crazy

and then I will ask you

“do you still feel lonely?”

——————————————————————————

The cat meows a storm

and rubs a dozen times

on the chair

She wants food it is clear

by the routine of it

and we toss the catnip mouse at her

and she mimics the hunt and kill

but nothing can make her forget

her meal
