Trying To Have A Conversation With Cousin Bubba

man! that was a great movie!

...wanna get sumpin' to eat?

that was the best concert by far!

...I'm hungry, you hungry?

I finished reading a really good novel last night

...you do look a little blurry-eyed

someone posted a brilliant poem online, it really hit home

...I dunno, tacos or pizza, you decide

that's it! I'm going back to New York

Good hours by Frost (Imagery workshop)

I had for my winter evening walk_
No one at all with whom to talk,
But i had the cottages in a row
Up to their shining eyes in snow.

And i thought I had the folk within:
I had the sound of a violin;
I had a glimpse through curtain laces
Of youthful forms and youthful faces.

I had such company outward bound.
I went till there were no cottages found.
I turned and repented, but coming back
I saw no window but that was black.

The Utter Inevitability of Metamorphosis

Alas alack
we may rue the day
but come what may
inactivity will not abay
change.

The temple

Dressed as freely as I came
Adorned with nothing, the mirror reflecting beauty and strength
I take a moment to gaze
A sacred temple is what I'm described as
A little bit of honey, chocolate, milk, scars and lightning
Treating me otherwise is pure ignorance
So with trembling knees and bowed head, you will worship in spirit and truth...
