Kiss the Fish


Spider's lair

I don't care

Wash my hair

Get out of there

Untangled me

let me be

all I see

be all I see

Living to breathe

Breathing to live

unto myself, I give

Letting go

What you don't know

Is something you don't see

In me

My heart

Is not delicate

My feelings do not give way

Are not swayed

by a lonely day

I give myself 

the time I need 

to grieve 

to perceive 

to leave

A shattered Heart

takes time to mend

But just around the bend

horizons dawn from noon to noon

shadows dance across the room

I make love to the moon

and kiss the calling loon 

in mists of gloom

Eyes prying into my life

Sharply cutting; a magic knife

Calling me their wife

where is my husband 

from whence these words flowed

God removed him

long ago

and I do not know

If God will ever show 

me 

what I do not know

Maybe I am the wife of God

Maybe it's upon Holy Ground 

My feet doth trod

Over in Newfoundland

They kiss the cod

They like it odd

While I have never kissed a cod

I have certainly talked with God;

Husband, I say

come fulfill this wish

Or should I settle 

and 

kiss the fish?
