Of big broken stones in round circle done
We reached up a more cruel clutter flank;

And there, for the horrible and strong stun
Of rotten stench which the deep...

Caught between the whispers of evening prayers

Yet I beseech...

[The Lord]
"Why do you throw up your hands at Me?
Turn around and take what I give you!"

For now heart still beatin'
Yet bleedin'
Struggling to find the meanin'
And to make the best of 'freedom'

Hardly ever dreamin'
Poorly I've been sleepin'
In dark waters,...

The most maddening creature
To walk, 
Waveringly across the tabletop
Drawn by an invisible wire
To my bowl
You stand
On the tips of your claws
Four scaly toes strain
You peer 
Over the edge 
And...

Where selfless offerings are made,
Tears flow like blood,
And ambition is pinned like a dart.

And seal the blessing upon her children.

My cat’s become so critical
of the pieces that I write
he kneads to express his opinion
and he always thinks he’s right.

He twitches his ear-itation

If what I write displeases him
he’s under the...
