poem: these wanting few
if I were blue
as I frequently am,
dawn of a remnant wind,
pregnant ocean rump
in my lungs, son
of estuary,
orphaned, lost,
found, this stew
a miserable
sequestration,
an amber
gift to the vagrant night.
she asked after you,
found wanting
desire most blessed, these
wanting few,
wanting less
wanting the last note
down the line:
a single digit,
plea to gather
the blue you
carry, the blue
you mine,
the blue that begs
the question
in each & every
wine.

Love it when you sings the blues, bro: "the blue you carry, the blue you mine, the blue that begs the question in each & every wine."
The video with pianos and vocals about 'darkest, darkest indigo' just enhances the mood. Makes me see the 'pregnant ocean rump.' (love that phrase)
T: I was looking for another take on "Norwegian Wood" last night on YouTube: P Barber's version more than fit the bill. Went on a bit of a PB tear from there on. Same initials as mine, and a Scorpio to boot.
Best to you, girl.
Gotta love those PB Scorpios. And Scorpio is soon rising, no? Your birthday week will be upon you in no time. Got any plans?
Gotta love, is right. Too soon for plans: the Black Rose's - Tina's - birthday is next Saturday. Scorp ain't allowed to stomp on the Libran time.
Ah. I was under the impression that she was a Scorpio, too; instead she's like my dad and baby bro... the scales of justice type. Is one of her nicknames Mat?
One Scorp in the house is enough, I'm sure. Don't want to overdose on narcissism. Walden's due date was the last day of Scorp: smart boy swam two more weeks on into Sagittarius.
