Lady Labyrinth

Stanzas of cyanide, her words come laced
Silky smooth ink, self destructs into space 
Still her head unlocks 
Unlike comments box
One hundred instant hits, a maze in grace

LL: I've always had a soft spot for Anaya but could not help but read between the lines this morning and I am highly intuitive. Enough said. :) Thanks for sending through to Anaya. She has my hotmail. David, she is talking through Robert for me.

I’m not sure Anaya, I’m not to bothered about being blocked I know it’s nothing personal, we never fell out or anything, perhaps she’s just downsizing her connections for personal reasons, the soup is indeed a strange place at times, cheers David

Love this, how did I miss it? I just noticed today that I can't see LL's comment's they are so informative. She must have me blocked by mistake? I e-mailed her, could you let her know David. ;D

Robert Gorelick checked for me & he isn't blocked. I don't like the fact I am blocked, I guess she just doesn't like me, hee ha. We must be more careful.

Heya Anaya, you didn’t miss this one, you commented on it ages ago, I’m afraid LL has me blocked too, I honestly thought Leanne just turned off comments, not sure what’s going on, cheers David

Congratulations on your win. A wonderful tribute to a wonderful/creative writer. When I grow up maybe I can write like her or maybe not. She is one in a million. Have a blessed day......................

More than my gold standard, she is my diamond jubilee... She is more than that to me, she is my fix, my muse my extended inner visions! Nice tribute David.

Thanks Tom, One of my favourites, an outstanding poet indeed, always silky smooth, yet her depth and range of words sew seeds in our minds, then pull it apart like her avatar, a unique gifted poetess for sure, hope she’s ok with my Limerick of sorts, cheers David
