lost bells



maybe this time around
i'll sing for my
 supper. try for aesthetic
darwinism.
starve when I have no beauty
to scrape up. and
crumble
under those clouds.

You are marvelous !

Your poem bends and twists nice :) Been trying to scrape up some beauty for weeks now and just can't find it yet. Soon the season will fire words or the beauty of the springtime blossoms - hang in there :) Mark
