you are not up to my standards Says big white cat, Shaking off the dust in your eyes, And you keep it in your mouth So you don’t argue, a good mouse
By Melissa Ingoldsby3 years ago in Poets
The little poetess Jane Conjured up a masterful piece, Of flightless birds, as herself As others can mirror in the very black & white font,
Oh Jane, my dear friend How much longer can one man stand To be apart from thee? We must read from Poe, from Descartes, from the tombs of despair
hope is Webbed in time Each occasion a spinneret Churns out The moon silk to earth’s womb, A vibration is sent out to
Dear Jane, An hour earlier, I wrote you a note in my head, Jane, Jane, Jane, All of you, you consume my waking heart, Working and breathing, sleeping and resting,
When we have last parted, my dear Jane, Through the torn silver light, I swore this as deeply sewn as my father’s name I, Edward, do not go without a fight
I had a good idea once, To tear out my very mouth, down like a zipper from a coat, line by line, a good blood-curdling coating of new skin
my dearest friend Jane, Your words soothe A calming balm over my throat My pained, aching eyes I feel my love etched in heaven,
you never do anything It’s all me I slide a curtain over us, and silver silence was the key. I never do anything wrong I’ll never change, you used to tell me, “live with it or leave”
what can a worm like Me do For an Angel To Show my affection?
Loneliness with the wrong person Covers everything like a coffin *** Haiku for a dark Raven that thinks it is loud with love
Jane, your poetry is uplifting And words so stern and strong And full of candy filled dreams, Puffed up Lollies that taste like heaven,
