Don’t say I am going to swell

2013-04-23 17.21.25

Made from part of a painting I did at my Art Class

My desires

 

Don’t cast nasturtiums on me
Don’t lie by me again
Don’t cross my hands with Gilbert’s
Don’t worry, it’s only  sea.
Don’t throw  me  doubt again
Don’t sell anyone,please.
Don’t say I am going to swell
Don’t extension it again
Don’t say it’s a tin on Fridays
Don’t believe all your ears
Don’t say you  awe me
Don’t remove my slight to privacy
Don’t see like that
Don’t say you ever loved me at all
Don’t admire my pain
Don’t mention I tease
Don’t  join the gravy
Don’t join the Air Coarse
Don’t do coppergate  sand writing
He joined a Liary after the War
Don’t go to Church on Fundays
Don’t bite the host
Don’t mention my ten thumbs as a wobbler

While we live, we’ll live with dignity

Liv

Turn back, live again, he  said to me
Do not  wander in the darkness anymore
One more move might give death victory

We are each connected to that tree
The sunlit top, the roots hid in earth’s floor
Come back, live again, he asked of me

While we live, we’ll live with dignity
Not scrabbling for the gold in blood and gore
One more lie will give  sin victory

The kindness of the golden light was  clear
And left an image in my mind’s deep core
Come back, live your life, he then soothed  me

Do not wonder  now why you are here
We’re here to live and living shall restore
What  our suffering self  has found so dear

I had never seen the light before
Only Christ the tyger with his roar
Come back,  live  through pain, he  asked of me
One right step will give love victory
