What?: No beer or exotic liquor? A gentle wind is blowing through this ethereal piece of penning. Who is this! What have you done with George? ~A~

Crocodile Gods : The Pharoahs had Nile and Euphrates open for a few years. These are water rights challenges - Diverting water is about to be a thing. I live on The Great Lakes. Fresh water dwindles. The Colorado River that supplies the western usa, our Nile, is about to turn into a puddle. Too much or too little, slippery little molecule. ~A~

A striking recap of what it: A striking recap of what it comes down to. Every line clicked perfectly into my own experience, but with a witty, perceptive clarity that I found comforting. When all is said and done it's "a mosaic of why not/ another way to stay/ alive."   You spoke for so many people (OK, maybe there's a sheltered monk or two in the Himalayas who never experienced this) when you wrote:   "This is how we live, never satiated, dying seeking, living wanting, always hording calling it legacy as civilization."   Life's inventory, written with rare honesty and brilliance.

patriciajj commented on: the last piece of st. louis by tallsquirrelgirl 2 years 26 weeks ago
"the butterfly house there is: "the butterfly house there is something that makes it art me leaving home and all those wings"   The symbolism and delicate genius of this work will leave anyone who has ever had this kind of connection with their mother breathless.   I'm completely smitten by this one-of-a-kind Mother's Day tribute, perhaps one of the best I've ever read..

As it surely will. Makes one: As it surely will. Makes one think though, with the source of the Nile being deep in the south of Africa, how come no equitable sharing and utilising of this life giving resource has been organised throughout the centuries that civilisation has been around.

Yes, indeed, kind sir! The: Yes, indeed, kind sir! The worship value of poetry is always a living potential, the first ever uttered being "Let there be..." perhaps there is an archive of current and past recordings of the Divine Liturgy; and if not an occasion to query the possibility for parishioners and congregants unable for valid reasons to be present.

Thank you very much.  This: Thank you very much.  This morning, and due to my medical condition, I was unable to receive the remote broadcast of the Divine Liturgy; and while I was feeling rotten about this, the poem came to me---as a kind of act of worship perhaps.

A Booze Moment: I'm sober now. Hangovers should not last three day! (smile). O.J. is orange juice. OJ Simpson (African American ex-football legend) was stripped of his wealth even thought he was not convicted of his wife's death. This write was fun, glad you enjoyed the likker (liquor) names Mssr Bishu. ~~allets~~   Miss You ~A~

allets commented on: Scavengers by allets 2 years 26 weeks ago
Scavengers: are birds of prey on two legs with bad ideas of what to do with children (who are metaphorically surprised/shocked by propositioners who see them as vulnerable or dying flesh) - scavengers eat left-over kill, not necessarily rotten only, they are leeches on the backside of humanity, a awful definition of predators (stalkers). Hope this clarifies oh most worthy Bishu the Sailor Man.   If you ain't got spinach kale will have to do If you ain't got no mo spinach kale just gotta do I ain't got no can of spinach this kale's sho nuff hard to chew. .   A little blues at 3:30a 08-17-13 ~allets~     .
