Um, um, don't let me parse that out yet.
(sonnet #MMMMMMDXLII)
What of the two espressos long gone hence?
Perfection, as lunch' fine spread was t'avail.
Eclipsed in ya, one phone call, aught detail
Was likewise, 'cept our dinner, or the sense
Of fleeting time I grapple for now, whence
Oh me! Now Texas winks at me like's bail,
Ten-gallon hats with crueler heat to scale
Than Lincoln's Land, and lo, a man fr'intents.
It's wonderful to be encouraged fer
All that to fear the LORD. I've missed it too
Long now. To talk together like's not poor--
Of Scriptures--ah, and with a man. I do
But fear now losing what's sae precious, were
It mine to have. Ne coffee's like this brew.
