eggs

Labels: 0 observations

the cruelty of the duality.
we want and need, for both we bleed,
fractured shells, swelling to

CRACK

and then we run away

no

really run away
like an egg from a shattered shell

we learn from
experience
and
observation
and
communication

and I wish you'd believe me
when I tell you the lessons
you seem determined to learn

the hard way

CRACK

ah well. hell. another mess to clean up.

    Explaining the Tags

    You will note, gentle reader, that all works under this blog now display "tags" to help classify and assign the works for your review and enjoyment.

    These largely fall into 4 categories:

    Year of writing, e.g. "1999"
    Book published in, e.g. "from an unexpected quarter"
    Inspiring muse, e.g. "Aubergine"
    Genre, e.g. "erotica"

    We are still in the process of cleaning up the tags, so please bear with us. Yes, some muses are classified under more than one tag, some poems appear in more than one book, or not yet in any volume, and some years are...hazy.
