she called it a tailbone cloud
and i immediately felt
in its soft salmon-coloured waterbones
her knowing
of this world
in the torsional flexing
of her self
as a woman
as a mother
as a lover
mirroring
the entirety
in the wholeness of all her bodies

steven, this reminds me of a beautiful poem i found just yesterday.
Bride and Groom Lie Hidden for Three Days
She gives him his eyes, she found them
Among some rubble, among some beetles
He gives her her skin
He just seemed to pull it down out of the air and lay it over her
She weeps with fearfulness and astonishment
She has found his hands for him, and fitted them freshly at the wrists
They are amazed at themselves, they go feeling all over her
He has assembled her spine, he cleaned each piece carefully
And sets them in perfect order
A superhuman puzzle but he is inspired
She leans back twisting this way and that, using it and laughing
Incredulous
Now she has brought his feet, she is connecting them
So that his whole body lights up
And he has fashioned her new hips
With all fittings complete and with newly wound coils, all shiningly oiled
He is polishing every part, he himself can hardly believe it
They keep taking each other to the sun, they find they can easily
To test each new thing at each new step
And now she smoothes over him the plates of his skull
So that the joints are invisible
And now he connects her throat, her breasts and the pit of her stomach
With a single wire
She gives him his teeth, tying the the roots to the centrepin of his body
He sets the little circlets on her fingertips
She stiches his body here and there with steely purple silk
He oils the delicate cogs of her mouth
She inlays with deep cut scrolls the nape of his neck
He sinks into place the inside of her thighs
So, gasping with joy, with cries of wonderment
Like two gods of mud
Sprawling in the dirt, but with infinite care
They bring each other to perfection.

I love this image, the poem, and the thoughts infused in it.
"the wholeness of all her bodies."
beautiful.
(Erin's Hughes' poem is lovely, as well.)
A magical photo and the words fit it like a glove.

friko - that's so kind. the image hovered for a very short while. the sun sets so quickly in the wintertime. but there aren't clouds like this very often in january . . . steven
We have had so much cloud cover and rain.... The last time I saw blue skies was weeks ago. Beautiful sunset photo... a tailbone cloud is a perfect description, and a soft, sincere love poem too!! So glad I visited. It's all so serene. =D
And after that you're taking your automobile to your renault can clip software update local mechanic store. The first matter a mechanic does will be to plug something into a connector (knowledge backlink connector or DLC) car diagnostic tools less than the sprint.
