o the weeping Willow
I stood beneath your limbs
and you flowered and finally clung to me
and when the wind struck with … the earth
and sand- you clung to me.

Night of the Nite-soothing-
darkness-refreshes-Air
Seems different-Night has
No eyes nor no one-silence-
except to the Night itself
- Marilyn Monroe -
From time to time
I make it rhyme
but don't hold that kind
of thing
against me-
Oh well what the hell
so it won't sell
what I want to tell-
is what's on my mind
taint Dishes
taint Wishes
it's thoughts
flinging by
before I die
and to think
in ink
- Marilyn Monroe -
Here goes -
Good nite
Sleep tight
and Sweet repose
Where ever you lay your Head-
I hope you find your nose-
- Marilyn Monroe -
I left my home of green rough wood,
A blue velvet couch.
I dream till now
A shiny dark bush
Just left of the door.
Down the walk
Clickity clack
As my doll in her carriage
Went over the cracks-
"We'll go far away."
II
Don't cry my doll
Don't cry
I hold you and rock you to sleep
Hush hush I'm pretending now
I'm not your mother who died.
III
Help Help
Help I feel life coming closer
When all I want is to die
- Marilyn Monroe -
Life -
I am of both your directions
Existing more with the cold frost
Strong as a cobweb in the wind
Hanging downward the most
Somehow remaining
Those beaded rays have the colors
I've seen in paintings - ah life
they have cheated you...
thinner than a cobweb's thread
sheerer than any
but it did attach itself
and held fast in strong winds
and sindged by leaping hot fires
life - of which at singular times
I am of both your directions -
somehow I remain hanging downward
the most
as both of your directions pull me.
- Marilyn Monroe -
