91 in the rearview mirror

"...honesty goes by the board, hurt feelings are put at a premium, general fear and paralysis set in, and one by one any woman who oversteps the increasingly circumscribed area of what’s permissible is trashed."

the frabjous power of song
finds songs that battle grief
songs to right all wrong
& song that beggars belief

we sing as we're swept along
by Time, the dearest thief,
songs to right all wrong
& song that beggars belief

cast where we didn't belong
we snag on a gossamer reef
songs to right all wrong
& song that beggars belief

Brother to dragons.

"Carver of soap and carrots, steel and flesh,
Biped of upright dust and throbbing head..."
