Where You Love From.

You've so distracted me,
Your absence fans my love.
Don't ask how.

Then you come near.
"Do not..." I say, and
"Do not...," you answer.

Don't ask why
this delights me.

kyk: gotta keep everyone on their toes and what better way than to quote a little bit of rumi on a thursday morning?

parenthesis: the wonder of poetry is that it's so mysteriously personal. we all read different things into it.

mrs b: do *not* get me started woman.

ekke: wow. you're so classy you get me all hot under the collar.

mark: yes. yes you're right. we *did* actually share a stolen kiss. she stole shit and then kissed me goodbye.

kyk: but sweetie, *every* day was stilettos only in this stripper filled house.

infini: you can definitely stay. just don't get used to the mush. the number of emails i've received enquiring as to my mental status of late. sigh. peasants indeed.
