    • If I speak in the tongues of men and angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a tinkling symbol. And if I have prophecy and know all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. And if I dole out all my goods, and if I deliver my body that I may boast but have not love, nothing I am profited. Love is long suffering, love is kind, it is not jealous, love does not boast, it is not inflated. It is not discourt

    Purple Circle - Against the Odds

    Please peel off my paper skin, let this red ink drain from within. Color the sky and draw the ocean wide with pencil fingers, and sing with the birds. Am I right to call myself a writer of words? Do I deserve this typewriter serving me, typing verbs, pronouns, and adjectives dancing with compounds bound to sounds, dripping hips swerve around the curves. I do, I will, I am spilling my purple circles in circus like circuits, killing a purpose. Further I go, beyond the snow capped mountains and trickling fountains, I am here in this moment of sincerity, purity of all, the cure to the tall blackened trees, I will climb till my bones crack and my hair falls out, and my skin wrinkles. I am here to bleed for you all to see, grinding my limbs in gravel so grim, unraveling red ribbons of sin.

    Absolutely amazing! I'm in love with the way you put things together, dripping hips, pencil fingers, paper skin, red ink from within... You have a brilliant mind for poetry, and yes, of course you deserve your type writer, but does it deserve you?

    Nice!!!!!!!!!

    Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
