Re: Day 3 Lizard Brain
And I keep in mind the last words, especially the IT: Freud's Id and the Kabbalah's It. And the poem looks like a spine. MArcel

Re: Advice To My Invisible Self _ Day 3
Janet,
You show your essence in and through those clipped short lines. You season the seriousness with laughter. Thanks for the nudge. Marcel

Triolet 3
He drills down to the marrow,
Extracts a hardened core.
I look up and see sorrow.
He drills down to the marrow.
He bids me now to follow,
To let him mine the ore.
He drills down to the marrow,
Extracts a hardened core.
Extracts a hardened core.
I look up and see sorrow.
He drills down to the marrow.
He bids me now to follow,
To let him mine the ore.
He drills down to the marrow,
Extracts a hardened core.

Triolet 2
Sitting in the waiting room,
We stare and look alike.
Visions beyond the door do loom,
Sitting in the waiting room.
We wait together for the womb.
We swim against the dike,
Sitting in the waiting room.
We stare and look alike.
We stare and look alike.
Visions beyond the door do loom,
Sitting in the waiting room.
We wait together for the womb.
We swim against the dike,
Sitting in the waiting room.
We stare and look alike.

Thirty Triolets
I
She came to me last night.
She shimmered in her silk.
The moon lent her blue light.
She came to me last night.
I reveled in her sight/
Her breasts the shade of milk.
She came to me last night.
She shimmered in her silk.
She came to me last night.
She shimmered in her silk.
The moon lent her blue light.
She came to me last night.
I reveled in her sight/
Her breasts the shade of milk.
She came to me last night.
She shimmered in her silk.

Poem for April 3rd
ARIANDE'S STRING
III
he holds his spindle
he spins it a childhood game
the thread unravels
maples helicopter seeds
more than enough honey bees
