salt of the earth

you who’d not change a single thing in life ~ may not get another chance whereas i’m guaranteed one more presage ~ i’ve sold my soul in advance satan wouldn’t take it ~ so traded with Lot’s wife for her sustained glance By David Kavanagh

As the American Indians might say: Bad trade. If we pretend for a moment that she wasn't killed instantly then her gaze would have been fixated on utter destruction. Not pretty. Ps. I haven't sold my soul to anyone bc I don't have one ;)

I’m sure like all poets you have a metaphorical soul, which indeed is at the heart of my Monokus, still its always nice to get a sustained glance from a lady, you know me Tommy I do like to layer up my posts, cheers David
