Poor, Poor Doogie--> Where is Your Bone?

A few decent, law abiding words have been buried deep in this digital sepia tomb.

Oh, sure. Maybe it was their time to go. They were terribly unphotogenic and late night, mushy-mouthed kissers. Yes. Definitely punishable offenses it's true.

But should it be Gorey? Like Amy, always tumbling down stairs? Bad form that.

I dunno.

I'm having a tough time, Lords and Ladies of the realm. I'm twiddle-thumb waiting for the Shy to inherit the Earth. The Poor don't seem to be in the running. Such hubris abounds! I find it on my own lips, penciled Cruella for a Friday night sta..stumble home.

Sad, sipping eyes
and tearing mouths
drip heart-wounds on nicely relaid,
reclaimed wooden floors.

Reader board retinas in neon scroll: I always expect more than what I settle for .
The mark- not Cain's - of urbane (thankyoukindly) loneliness.


Bah.

The wind blows its stolen horde past my window; their E minor whistles and fugue state enviable on this Saturday morning after. If a New Year begins in winter so can I. Which, by my calculations, leaves me the rest of Fall to tumble.

Besides, there's always season two of Little Britain...

i reckon the summer was quite an experience for you? your turn of phrase simply bowls me over.

You've Got What I Need... said...

ladyb: oh, I wouldn't know much about such things... (wink) It's nice to resonate, though. What a lovely thing to visualize. Thanks.

illyria: it certainly was. i'm not always sure at times if my silly twistings can be understood, so thank you.

wow. you're good.

here i was giving myself the rest of the week to tumble and thinking myself a hotshot.

and yes, the resolution of your images always makes for fun reading.

You've Got What I Need... said...

liam: you (of course) are the hottest of shots, and i'm glad to entertain. happy halloween!

That other post makes me think you might have a baby on the way.

Maybe I'm completely off.

And your turn of phrase has been noted - and I agree: something is up with you.

But what..?!

Good to read you again, yo.
It's been way too long, that.

happily,

That wasn't sarcasm.
Really great to hear from you!

ty bluesmith said...

it's great to read something from you again

You've Got What I Need... said...

victora: wow, really? i certainly hope not. i do love babies but mostly when other people have them. Baby seals, now, those I could bounce on my knee (or watch roll around on a slowly melting glacier) all day. thanks for the concern, though. you're the sweetest.

ty: ditto, yo.

ps Edward Gorey!

Victoria said...

Darling, where are you?

On to better things - I'm sure, but still - I miss you..

V: Thank you for snapping me out of my hibernation!
