Taurean Mass

aDarkerMind

Taurean mass

as much as any other.

old numbers sold as spent one zodiac.

safe with the knowledge of mirrors

I see, therfore, far beyond the elbow of my craft.

touch it, watch it eat.

it has more mouths than a telephone dare ring.

white pearls with molars!

what is this that beckons brittle jaws

to bear no grudge the flaws of one so shrewd?

it is the hands that drill for oil that scare me most.

old gossip comes of old times

with a tale to tell of twice about the sinking of a mood.

how far from the tree will the stellar tide

ride with the pale wet leaves of a new-born calf?

this age demands an image.

not grass of yellow autumn

that comes from mood of man and beast beyond.

life beyond one movement.

as roses might in amber laid

red overwraught in orange with all made;

              Always wonderful poetic expression in your work.

              how far from the tree will the stellar
              tide
              ride with the pale wet leaves of a new/born calf?

              You ask a question. I have no answers. I do however wish you a very happy and healthy new year Melvin. All the best.
