[don't you just love the smell of lightnin'?]
invite that strike of barb-ed fork
blurt smirking mirth - [Nebraska corn] -
a loathsome husker huffed windy bluster
in feckless lust o'er freckled lass
she heard your word - you oink like pork
breath rank and mean - foul beard unshorn
you trailer trash tempt a killing twister
she hooks the sky... then lets it pass
mother earth by men brought dark
while women bless the harvest morn
that girl has power beyond you, Buster
bless the stars - she spared your ass
sing it!:
"oh my darlin', oh my darlin', oh my darlin' Clementine..."
"she is lost but not forgotten", Omaha doll, inclement time

this too will dissolve
subtly but in a mild panic i catch my hand as it drifts towards you - intercept it in mid-flight moments before it reaches your shoulder, before i make the mistake of touching you in an ingrained gesture of affection. with your back towards me, you don't notice how i begin to break the pattern, break yet another line of communication. the way a path untravelled re-fills with forest, this too will dissolve. i hope you don't notice until you look back one day and see that it's already gone, that there's nothing left to see. until then i hope you remain oblivious to these inevitable slips, to these muscle memories of love.
Literature
Much needed warmth
Riding through the mountains below the moon,
morning mist burning away-
blessed by the warmth of spring.

Arise
Nothing makes sense anymore Mike Shinoda said Tearing flesh like carnivores We, better off dead? Gripping hope’s rationing, The rail of the stair White-knuckled, tense, fastening Uttered, fervent prayer Gossamer thread, teasingly Holding on to joy Don’t come by it easily Is it just a ploy? The fire still ravaging Sated, Celtic blood Yet utterly damaging Drowned within the flood Find a strength that’s whispering Standing proud and tall Green isle, wind blistering I must heed its call

Clementine grew up near Omaha Neb.
and she, being a 'white witch',
had secret powers over the elements.
also, she had freckles.
you didn't know that? it's all true...
