A MATTER OF CARE

Folder: 
JOURNAL #22

tell me

is your soul

prepared to be swooned

your love ready to be

swept away

along side the tireless tide of

my immense fascination

if so

give me all the fingers of your

disreputable hands

every last one

even the stiff broken

useless stubs

and I shall attempt to paint them

all a new for you

such a fine strong hand

in this matter of care

love's forgiveness

the ultimate healer

words

the graft that builds itself

strong

between one's firmest humanity

and the truer spirit.........
