but first the Light must work..

She spent $12500 for 30 days in Wimberley
Now she does not drink,thinks clearly.
I suggested it would have been cheaper
to camp by Blue Hole(get arrested for vagrancy-
everything is clarity!

Song of sparrows dust coats lungs
Dogs of war/cats of sleeping peace
Eagle peck/dove with sprig o green
Over the wall of words/songs of sorrow

he wants to drink her mother's milk
on French Toast(no less!-she says-

Purple lambs of sheepish cuddles
Pink clouds of champagne bubbles
If we ignore each other enough
Are we less-or more?

i want to open this page door.
let the flag fly/let the tent flap
let the lettuce leaf
let permission slip
