Double Entendre

What is it you've said when you never said that at all and why did it read between the lines you're dead and never written? I'm confused. I thought you were being used to channel heaven-sent the scent of mystery yet here I see upon the scene the angels are abused. Tell me I'm not in trouble with all this double mumbo jumble means of a meanie to gain your attention and thereby sway to the dance of the absurd. Yes, tell me its all okay to lay upon the papered sage (or is that purpled?), or lie if in the end its all pretend anyway. Huh ... what'd she say?

Hello Sue, thanks for your comments on Her Lover. At last I have some "real" time to answer. I think this poem is very clever Sue, and wonder who it was written for or about.

Now I'm as confused as Julia Child if she had married Syd Ceasar. She would have been Julia Ceasar. Read between the lines? At my age, I'm lucky if I can see the lines. God Bless. Vince

Yes Sue, sorry but I am with your last line and share the confusion of the meaning with Kristin. However, somehow the writing, your writing, always sounds profound, except when you are being silly. : ) Always appreciate it when you write a blog explaining - and also always feel like a dummy for not getting it. Happiest of new years Sue! Love & hugs, Shar
