The Dancing: the Last Dance

Was it a cruel twist of fate?
Sneering, laughing chance?
Perhaps something I ate?
A bad bout of happenstance?

I Wait With Bated Breath For C Cure T Clarence

I wait with bated breath for... C. Cure T. Clarence

The following crafted 
approximately midway

After drenching biblical rainfall

After drenching biblical rainfall...
verdant green acres covered the planet of the apes
like a petticoat junction
donning barrel of skinny dipping monkeys.

The Rant

whose era treasured learning over gold,
And humble were the thoughts and words of these,
who, trothed to truth, would now be left displeased,
by hurried tempers bent on winning wars,
neglectful...

Light On the Devil's Chord -Day 1

And the music began,
And with power so strong, I nearly fell back from the force
Snarling, smiling, demons held me upright,

Shayna Punim - You came a long way baby!
