feast day

you
want a piece
of me

my love
my heart
my soul

you
have the tools
to make that happen

leave nothing
but
the bones

  1. Nice...leaving nothing but the bones though is a sad one ~

    Happy Sunday ~

  2. To be consumed by love
    I think that would be wonderful!

  3. Nothing like a bit of good old loving cannibalism to start a good Sunday. Just kidding on the flesh-eating part.

    I love the organic feelings your words inspire. And the speaker's passion, to be willing to give it all--through pain, even.

  4. ha i like your consumed by love much more than the thought that ran through my head honestly...maybe it was the use of tools which sounds a bit impersonal....

    1. If I came off impersonal I apologize... It's just that my time is expensive... Just a half an hour for lunch :)
      Heh...smiles

    2. Consumed by love is a great kind of consumption I reckon. Nothing quite like a bit of love for breakfast, lunch & dinner. I like your Magpie Rene, well done!

  5. Wow! I did not hear cannibalism for one second. I only heard passion and desire.

  6. If it feels this good being used,
    then, baby, use me up!

  7. Devoured then transformed...I think of passion and desire, Shiva and Vishnu, annihilation and reformation. There are cycles here, deep and potent. I bow to you, madam.

  8. I adore the cycles, the love and the passion and desire. Beautifully penned, Rene. Thank You for sharing. =D

i don't like eggs but you knew this already i know you're thinking such a terrible waste but it's not, you see i'm feeding them to the dog she loves them just as much as i know she loved you and the way you walked her as if every single thing she sniffed mattered to you as well sorry, dear pardon my red wine opera crowd violin string tugging (your words) i ramble at breakfast like a fussy percolator but you knew this already morning is when i am most honest and vulnerable i know that's why you left after dinner oh god dammit you i miss you so much what i did before us is a mystery and what i do now is insanity i'm frying up eggs just to smell them again and to perhaps coax you down, from wherever you are for breakfast did you know i believe that there is still a ghost of a chance Rene Foran ~  April 2011 photo by Tess Kincaid for Magpie Tales click for more info
