		<description> love? oh, I have loved.

I have given life and desire to love,
passed it gladly on a platter of hope 
and had it returned, dead and cold.

I have flown free with the birds
on ghostly wings, singing my love
with operatic joy for all mankind.

I have been a prisoner in the
dungeon of my love
crushed and jellied by the
weight of my guilty sorrows.

I have loved lust and hungered
for the heat of intimate sensation
where romance becomes sex.

but I have shared love and keep it now,
close and secure in the palace 
of my heart, in mirrored halls 
where all is light and ecstasy.  ... more  </description>

		<guid isPermaLink="true">https://dev.shakespearesmonkeys.com/article-10647-last-night</guid>
		<description> I was a staggering reveler
and you my faithful hound.
we roared through the night,
shattered with broken glass
and empty shouted lies.
no ambition but to imbibe
an ocean of inebriation,
with no thought of tomorrows
painful, regretful awakening. </description>

		<description>   
 At first, it’s only muffled interruptions 
 disturbing silence, penetrating walls; 
 but once it's heard, there's nothing much can 
 tune you out. The voices rise and fall. 
 Some unseen drama claims your full attention. 
 A shout. A cry. A silent interval. 
 Then sudden thud and shifting chair as someone 
 lunges. Shouts and blows before a lull.  
 It's not your business - someone else’s row. 
 Don't get involved. Be Switzerland. Stay safe.  ... more  </description>

		<description>Today I wear red, a pin, and a medal.  I am
shrouded in mourning, clinging to prayer
as my siblings and peers gather
on Madison Drive, prepare
to march forward, bound
by sweaters, scarves,
-- faithhopelove --
sustained
by the greatest of these
for the least among us:
unexpected child,
unprepared mother.

Today I wear prodigal hope
as a birthright, not
political entitlement</description>

		<description> we drove through may.

we were always driving.



In Tennessee we stopped

needing more gas 
 you paid while I

spoke lightly of marriage 
 you scoffed



and we kept driving

as if the death of may

followed us. </description>

		<description>    
 Earth rolled on its axis for a cold homecoming at dusk. 
 You two under the night-sky, upturned to ancient light, 
 renewed a childish wonder seeing what I pointed out 
 through the simple dark above moonless roofs. 
   
 That silver bead-bright stud stuck in vast blackness - 
 was it the International Space Station, 
 reflecting low down in the West? 
 Or was it mythical Venus firing your ripe amazement?

		<description> a glorious time of transition
a new master of American ideals
and the passing of a painful past.
the launch of a rocket of hope,
its trail inscribed for all time
on the history of our nation.
let there be a healing of wounds,
let there be a new and
all American revolution
of conscience, of renewal,
let there be a new and 
wholesome peace,
a united country behind 
a new leader of hope,
the beginning of a new golden age
for the world.
Let it be so, for if not,
the end of our ancient honor is nigh. </description>

		<description> sometimes with 
guilty pleasure,
I go upon parade, 
my clothes draw 
much attention,
more than normal days.

this habit rubs my ego 
in many needed ways,
for inside I wear nothing
which nobody can see,
and so I march and strut
and a peacock would I be. </description>

		<description> a year ago I was not me

but a denizen of another world.

every year I start again,

a new man born of the 

twelve months past.

ever changing, never static,

I remain myself in full measure,

freshly derived from the womb of time. </description>
