20.viii.00
Cesky Krumlov, Czech Republic
dreamt and dreamt for miles at sleep
at sleep for miles could be anywhere how
come no pictures of HER? so much
kindness to me. "borrego" means sheep
and dreams come thick as them but
do you remember any? only the ugly
looking ones.
the castle is the
highest point in town
one sees
for miles
in the pleasant daylong afterglow
silence is majestic steps with sure
feet through cobblestones without
turning an ankle
even the bartenders get
a respectful amount of unbroken
sleep
wish I could have skipped my lunch
and run down to play with the dog
who whimpered for someone to go swim
with shivering, he wanted only
another chance to swim against
the current
maddening and simple, to us
complicated fellows
what examples of nature
to go against flow
and love it?
we play cards at night
game of luck and skill
but don't go in for the kill too soon
play because it is fun
not for a mouthful of blood
and flesh for even at cards
we must have civility
otherwise, we may go back
to the slaying of stag
and bear
making love
is a fair and wondrous thing if
one can find a partner with a large
enough O attached
the jacks may be closed up with
a wild card but
you'd never do that with an ace!
queens come and go
kings too
but don't overlook that which
led you to this magic kingdom
positioned you on dais of
opportunity or bed of gravel
because it just looked right
remember hand descending into
heart?
remember the heart of flowers
at Stonehenge?
there's a heart of mystery
in every old castle
live it
