The willing can ac...

While leaving each piece of parts flats 
To offer individual life  places to grow 
While rotating around the sun as a whole 

For all individuals can thu...

Raving, Raving; the Tides Receeding

...Here I am,


In the first fling of youth-

In what sterile field did I find this anti-fecund missive?

Sat on a tuffet

I'M Gene Kelly Again

...Spending today 
whilst wiling away

relaxed as can be

For today...
