I suppose for me to say
"Aunt Flow" arrived
a tad early would be...gross?

It is wild where a mind goes...
ok...my mind...my healthy fertile mind

I 'get' the imagery, Sage, and it's fine and especially you as always, but how you come upon these concepts is fascinating and intriguing. What a head you have!

mmm! Maple syrup and wiserWaffles -sounds like a nice breakfast. Is the music I can't hear with the post giving a harder tone? It's soft - another-year-older-type poem that is soft kitchen, I see an older man in this, but there are alternate meanings in your choice words! Free form, free wheeling Sweetwater-ku's -i like! The Moses and Jesus one I read was aces at the time btw xx:o)

Look Away Silence by Edward Patterson

Martin Powers wanted an ironing board for Christmas. Instead, he got . . . Matthew Kieler, a non-returnable gift, but a gift that kept on giving. A powerful tale of survival, compassion and unapologetic love in the time of AIDS.

Another Way of Being by Sion Liscannor

A (shockingly) truthful autobiography with elements of fantasy, philosophy, and historical fiction.

Cutting the Cheese by Edward Patterson

Just a simple gathering of the Gay & Lesbian Activist Association of New Birch and Sipsboror (GLAABS) and we plunge down a hilarious ride to perdition.
