she wanted to be a blade
of grass amid the fields
but he wouldn't agree
to be a dandelion
she wanted to be a robin singing
through the leaves
but he refused to be
her tree
she spun herself into a web
and looking for a place to rest
turned to him
but he stood straight
declining to be her corner
she tried to be a book
but he wouldn't read
she turned herself into a bulb
but he wouldn't let her grow
she decided to become
a woman
and though he still refused
to be a man
she decided it was all
right

a tad windy on this day.. it tries to rip me thoughts away.. lol
sub-entry: slight-breeze
raking the corners of probable guess-work
the slight-breeze plays up and renders all bowing
dust in eyes, is it?
if pain be the currency of pleasure, welcome to the ever-teasing elements
of all the gems decked out from the universe's treasure-chest
you will always be..
the finest theft
I almost ever got right
bright and bold
the moon spins round
and dances on in good hope
into the arms of flail'd-amnesty
