globe spins on . . . time for a beach-walk and smell that fresh, salty air . . . despite whatevr :) not gonna go bitin' me elbows. sub-entry : heron’s call sparkle of dew on leaf-tips trail of dead earthworms flattened by the wheels . . . on wet tar feel the veritable tremors of the heron’s call . . . echo beseeching to the others muted rumours of a vagrant’s death in hostile chill against backdrop of giant stone-face table-cloth long dissipated . . . by now icicles hang with plaintive air in another realm of land-locked drought where obscenely-rich jetsetters sport their latest Pontiac or Porsche subconsciously remember bonds of care amidst tipsy tinkles of flibbertigibbets a drink the cost of their kin’s weekly wages and deign to pop with cordial air-kisses and leftover-humanity to down-and-broke parents who offer freshly-steeped oolong to half-hearted ingrates stepping aside the hangman’s hope round that perilous bend into that iconoclastic gut’s-trail as smeared revealings whose juddering disciple turns out not a plagiarist shows he had seen the lofty bird take flight and burst to flame before their latent eyes dismay can well hold hands with anticipated pitch   yet leather-strapped feet trudge on as not only eyes, but meagre spool rolls on . . . closer . . . closer . . . closer every moment framed by minded pellucidity hands in ill-assorted gloves . . . no matter they fit all fine and fitting wholly . . . within that heron’s call it all fits somehow . . . in the trans-coloured emblem of a winded prism                             wǒ ài nǐ http://m.youtube.com/#/watch?v=_2TGkBf7vMQ&desktop;_uri=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3D_2TGkBf7vMQ
