Tangle (reading)

There is more

than sex and death,

black and white

There is

the smooth, firm curve of grey,

with infinite points along

the cusp

This is where we live –

in the tangle

amid agony that may

(at any moment)

 reveal

bliss

Here is my poem Tangle read by Avril Yospa.  Enjoy!


A Note: This poem has been posted earlier on my blog, here but when my friend with the lovely voice agreed to record it for me I decided to re-post it.  This was originally a Magpie Tale along with an absurd Top Ten List back in February.

Top 10 and Tangle

Top 10 Juvenile Comments I Feel Compelled to Inflict on You:

     1.  I had the strangest dream…

     2.   It’s raining men, and I slipped and fell in a big puddle

     3.  What happens when you REALLY have nothing to wear

     4.  This would be way more fun if I could still feel my legs

     5.  Who farted?

     6.  Aren't you glad you use Dial?  Don’t you wish everybody did?

     7.  Sw-e-e-e-e-t dreams

     8.  Yes, I AM the center of it all

     9.  Where’s Waldo? 

     10. Careful, don’t mess up my hair!


      Just in case you wanted to hear the song click here: It's Raining Men!

Sorry, I just had to get that out of my system.  Which is your favorite?  Do you have one of your own?  :o)

And now for something completely different:

 Tangle

There is more

than sex and death,

black and white

There is

the smooth, firm curve of grey,

with infinite points along 

the cusp

This is where we live -
in the tangle,

amid agony that may

(at any moment)

reveal 
bliss
