Premenstrual Syndrome -

She painted cubes and angles
drowned in hues
of density and celsius pressures,
it was in part due
to her retrospect of comfortable sorrow,

the syndrome was complicated
by the distant shine
of a brilliant lover,
I remember her voice coming to 
to me like that of a 
summer solstice
eagerly carressed by the lungs
of the bluejays
that would translate the technique
of blossoms
like it were their first language,

her fury was lush,
and she channeled it properly,
I'm positive shes negative
in an act thats sincere,
she is positively negatively
painting in gray today -

J.A.B.

    Just when you think you understand a woman, it will fall apart. Some of us are the enigma that must be subdued and the ride is sometimes bewildering but the highs a lows are not to be missed. Your depiction of a woman has it's own fascination Justin; worth knowing I'd say! Love, Elizabeth

    I can rely on you to understand my substance Elizabeth - I adore the lows as much as the highs, but only because of hope - thanks so much for the love - J.A.B. %

    That's one way to describe it, Justin..."positively negatively painting in gray today"! I'm watching outside as I write this thinking that even Mother Nature must have this "syndrome". The sky is brooding and grey, it's cold and stray flakes are starting to fall. Keep well! Love, Mikki

    I thank you for the 'Props' Joy - I must understand women in order to comprehend life, and the amazing biology of women is terrifying & enchanting, so writing about the magic of women is a mandate from the Divine - J.A.B. %
