Texas Heat

Because the birds are dying
Because the silence of summer is crushing
Because my clothes hurt and the trees are falling
Because the cats pant and the squirrels are still
Because I fear not-so-spontaneous combustion
I will pray for rain

Hydrangeas - For you from me today.

Hydrangeas
I am learning so much about the drawing tools on my new toy. It seems like a lot to ask from such a small thing, but here it is!

Talents

We were very careful with our Talents
The Drawings all came True

The Music became Dance
Became Sex
Became You

Now we record, recite, playback
We are no longer obliged to be careful with our Talents

The Magic
The Pain of Finding
The Universe in your Hand

Gone with Age
Bound with Time
Forgotten to be Found again

Beauty in Texas

Beauty in Texas

Old School Femme, your hair is long
Weighed down with sweet sweat

Your waist is small
Nothing to eat but tears

Your skirt is short
Long legs ending in cowboy boots

Your look is predictable
Loved by the man you hold

You hold him up
He puts you down

Beauty in Texas
