Moving toward the event horizon
Singularity engulfs everything
Time is an illusion
in a silver of moment ecstasy
Sleight of hands, smoke and mirrors
Vision tricks sense of touch
Hearing our emotions
fearing our senses
Blessed by torment
ephemera passing as nostalgia
Talisman of misfortune
Desperately trying to match breaths
lost in the cacophony of heartbeat
Another commentary po.em collaborated with the lovely Lorraine, http://myfrillyfreudianslip.wordpress.com. Her words are italics. These lines were compiled in comment sections along the way.
wow – another amazing complimentary work π
really – I know it must sound a bit “lame” because I can never find the words – but honestly, this whole thing? – you two wear it so well and beautifully – so I’m just going to sit with the images π

I have a post for the beginning of the string.. other stuff good to still be worked with. No need to stop it. I’m in middle of traveling and have an image to find. You ok with posting later I used the first eight lines …I think.

sure — sounds good. We can keep going — but I’ll be out for a while, then away from the computer. So travel and image seek away.
First eight lines sound good.

This is like an upscale place at reasonable price. Pork belly and beef rib tacos, with spinach, chipotle sauces, crumbled cheeses. Cactus fries, deep fried cactus with prickly pear sauce. They have beans but not the rice.

Didn’t know about cactus fries or prickly pear sauce. Worth a try some day. Yeah right, like I’d ever end up eating where that was on the menu. Don’t think I’d miss the rice.

I do too. Or did til my food sensitives/allergies made such explorations difficult, and on occasion down right nasty. I miss enjoying international foods.

I carry Benedryl and should carry an up to date epipen — potentially deadly allergy to peanuts, then on down the legume scale with less reaction by the time get to green beans. Legumes and spices are my worst. Now even cinnamon — so no more cinnamon buns unless I want to pay.

What was the reverse/revenge fairy tale we were discussing? I’m going to run a bad/naughty fairy tale tale weavers prompt in May, and I was trying to think of our idea (like your bad Red Riding Hood) of family revenge.

It was Snow white taking advantage of the 7 dwarves. Snow White as seductress or kept woman.
