Thursday's Windows


"Thursday’s Windows"

the view 
from the other side
open wide 

watching 
other stories
unfold 

write their worlds 
upside down
their concert 

sung to mirrors
none fair of face 
and most, 

far to go

(LadyLabyrinth / 2023)





“Monday's child is fair of face,
Tuesday's child is full of grace.
Wednesday's child is full of woe,
Thursday's child has far to go.
Friday's child is loving and giving,
Saturday's child works hard for a living.
And the child born on the Sabbath day
Is bonny and blithe, good and gay.”









"The Light and the Dark of it. Some people will go to extraordinary measures for redemption. Some people go to extraordinary lengths for Love. Some will call it courage. Others will denigrate the truth of the fall in delivery as foolish. There are benefits to falling, to the breaking: beginning, middle, end. If not the whole, you cannot see but a part of yourself in others, then there is something vitally humane missing in you. No matter how clean and worthy you deem yourself. You are Godless."

Love needs no affirmation but its presence. Very well done, nicely put together. When people communicate openly, honestly (free from protecting ego), love will be the common language spoken. Blessings my friend. I do not know who these people are, a dinosaur myself, but I understand their experiences and humanity awakening. Oh, another FAV from me.

you don't need to know the person. but his back story from childhood to present, unravelled and still unravelling, of value. the word "empathy" comes to mind.
