From confusion to finding the light; from worldly pursuits to peace and serenity; you make it real and say it so well Mikki. Wish you were more prolific but I guess genius takes time! :) LOve Lizzie

Why did you call the poem Baba Ghanous? That is tasty food but what is the connection? Also - what is chiromancy. Keep 'em coming! Peace & Love Matthew Anish

Why oh why, Mister Geppetto, do I have a wooden head?:) Egg plant is a rich purple, like a spiritual colour...when it's ghanoushed, it's white.

I really like this, however, I dont see what Baba Ghanoush or eggplant hummus has to do with it? Anyway I really enjoyed reading. Reminded me of gypsys with your talk of crystal balls and cushion dolls and such.

fruit of the imagination, poetry done in rhyme can be, thoughts are deeds of damnation, when the mind of eye can see... as in when you do remote healing, see her aorta shrink for she, having it shrink confirmed by ray, magic it just seems to me... re: 'Baba Ghanoush' Michelle Mac Donald Don Johnson

Nothing like a good plate of Baba Ghanoush after a serious meditation. I am with you, Mikki. Meditation is like Jesus said - "Go into your closet." Love, daver

WoW Mikki, so succinct & substantive is this piece! Scrumptious vocab. too - you may not have mojo, but you certainly have Divine Inspiration! This is the kind of poetry that I can build confidence upon, where my spirit may dare to rest on a summit of stars - this one goes to the favorite list! J.A.B. %
