    • is so sorry she's been away so long! Trying desperately to catch up!

    Bitterness
    I wish to be the rock
    from which blood cannot be squeezed

    but I am like the peel of a banana

    bitter...and left behind

    ...watch your step.

    This is a slippery slope your tread. I like this considering the many possibilities of what havoc you could wreak, or food variations you could offer. May all your bruises only be external. Fanciful write!

    Whoah! So much said so parsimoniously. This one keeps tickling after the eyes have stopped. HT

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
