I want to be the queen you must drone on about
I want to be the corpuscles and the blood work
That says you will be dead without my infusion
Typical physic paradigms
And lofty schemes
All to hold on
To
The someone that becomes
Casper the friendly ghost
Flying in to tell me that if I just follow
My dreams
He will too
From a café in Paris
He will read all about me!
His heart will soar.
To the ethers of forever
Whence we came,
He and I
By the by
I am in the Andes.
Eating coca leaves and the bruja says
There is something a brewing
A storm is coming
A wind funnel is changing and I must go!
Run she says run run to your destiny
It waits on a wailing wall in darkness
Bring them light she says
That’s all that matters.
The light is all that will satisfy you!
But she is wrong
I think
I wanted to just be in bed with you
Hearty cup of tea and practice fish
Listening to the song of
Letting me go.
Oh shit
Even here you and the fish practice
The backstroke
To a place where you watch me
Discover the light that old bruja said I should
Find
The only thing that will make me truly happy
She said,
But I don’t think so
I think
Smoking one last cigarette
After 11:00pm
With you would have been better.
But I don’t know that either,
Cause I still can’t find that light.

God!.....
at first you seems to submmit to a vampire.
Now I can see that there is always something…
or someone to submmit…
Forgive me adjudicating you the second persons….
characters of Life… I know…
who knows?...
what kind of souls’ adventuring..
you may be in…..je, je,

Amazing lyric Lina. And one with your dynamic needs both blood sucking vampire and friendly ghost… a true lover needs to be both. And eat Practice Fish on Wednsday nights…
Btw, I promise to stop going on about dynamic (crosses fingers behind back…)
xo
linaji replied
may be.. one true one.. dynamic is just begging for a verse to explode on. dynamic.. my gal pal I talked to uses that word alot .. yes.. one needs a lover and a ghost.. when one has the story I do to swallow practice fish with.. .. strong like tea i would say .xo

It soars, and then, wind let out of the bag, hits home, hard. Your words are lyrical, Lina.
