Im done and dusted <br />packed away in a shoebox <br />of transparent memories <br /> <br />what was last night about? <br />delicate dreams in filigree flight <br />crisp as lettuce <br />crunchy to the core <br />yet adding that joie-de-vivre <br />to the seduction of senses <br /> <br />I'm truly done and dusted <br />as I stagger into todays <br />escapades of poetic fancy <br />unable to filter the diamonds <br />from the dust of dreams. <br /> <br />tomorrow may be <br />better when the serenity sails in <br />to calm the raging forest fire <br />of expression.<br /><br />Marshall Gass<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/diamonds-in-the-dustbowl/
