don't go changin'

"I woke up this morning
after our talk last night
with a whole new freedom
in the knowing that
i can be no-one other
than who I am"








'who you are is amazing.
who you are inspires me to
truth I have never
experienced
so vividly before....'

What the fuck are you looking?

Unable to speak the language
for a mind
that is frozen

I return, finally,
to my old musty pals
who never, ever,
fail me.

dear Eva;(your hair is beautiful- wow-ho-tonight)

As in the hand a match glows, swiftly white
before it bursts in flame and to all sides
licks its quivering tongues:
within the ring of spectators
her wheeling dance is bright,
nimble, and fervid, twitches and grows wide.

And suddenly is made of pure fire.

Now her glances kindle the dark hair;
she twirls the floating skirt
with daring art into a whirlwind
of consuming flame,
from which her naked arms alertly strike,
clattering like fearful rattlesnakes.

Then, as the fire presses her too closely,
imperiously she clutches it and throws it
with haughty gestures to the floor and watches
it rage and leap with flames
that will not die - until, victorious,
surely, with a sweet greeting smile,
and holding her head high,
she tramples it to death with small,
firm feet.

you must wake-up now

'remember that not getting

what you want is sometimes

a wonderful stroke of luck'.
