Flaccid-A Magpie Tale

Flaccid

The last time I posed
for you I was besotted
with inflated dreams.
I wanted more than
you could give and more than words
will give me ever.

That you would stand there
nude and with gentler sight lines
than I might deserve
causes me to ponder,
to consider, to chew on
things like old doorjambs
and tree stumps awash
in the flood of long long time
now that I am fat
and old.

Hmmm. It's been awhile since I wrote a poem. It's been a while for other stuff too.

*sigh*

Oh and go here for the list of contributors.

In Our Garden

In Our Garden

I know you watch me
as I dig in our moist earth
searching for worm holes
and the rich castings
found in the passage of time.

My broad muscled dream,
best dream of my life
rises to the heat of you,
your demanding care.
I have planted you
deep in me as if I were
woman to you and love
itself the member.

It's been a while since I posted.  I assume I am losing readers.  This has been happening for quite a while now.  Makes me sad, but on the other hand, it doesn't really matter.  I am not in this game to make a splash.

ill...

Just so you know, I am a bit under the weather and not keeping up with the posts right now.
