low tide

A wooden house in eastern Europe. Elm trees. Low hills. My walking stick. “Let me sketch you.” Set yourself free. Charcoal shadows and hollow air. The earth sings goodbye to another day. Brisk and fresh. Steam and mist. There is no script. A car radio bleats the blues….my minds not right….my sideburns are lopsided…my testicles are hanging lower than usual. The moon is a boomerang and at low tide you can smell dead sponge and rotten crab meat. From the bridge we looked down and saw huge fish swimming, a broken dock and the cafe lights where we had lunch. A salad with walnuts and fresh fruit. A glass of bubbled water from another country. Down at the waters edge, the crowds filled the streets and bikers had an excuse to ride in the orange hue dusk. We will grow old. Read books on a porch. Wait for visits from children. And their children. Fade into the colors of the trees. Watch the shadows move across the wood and when the noiseless winds come, I will still hold you and kiss you.
The End.

    Cool site goodluck 🙂 fasiclor cefaclor suspension 125 mg Unfortunately, Professor Jones has based his criticism on media reports, not what I actually wrote.

It’s like baring your soul.” Writers and philosophers have wrangled over the question for centuries, but Halbreich knows the answer: “A woman’s biggest fear is a three-way mirror. You should see their faces when I put them in there.” Luckily for them, Halbreich insists in one smooth exhalation, “God gave me one very big gift: I know sizing. Women don’t understand sizes, and designers today make it even harder for them. What used to be a 12/14 is now an 8/10.
