Second Chance<\/strong><\/p>\n

 
\nThe slow rain
\nis a woman
\nonce lost.
\nIn the midst
\nof a most female Spring
\nshe returns
\nspilling her essence
\nwithout any comment
\nas to her previous behavior.
\nEven before
\nthe earth revives,
\nmy cold winter oaths
\ndesert me.<\/p>\n

I find myself
\nunlatching the door
\nand once again
\nI laugh
\nwith her lightning bolts
\nlate into the evening.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Seance Love<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I want
\nto be
\nyour lover
\nfor more
\nthan just
\nONE
\nlifetime.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Too Damn Late<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

to get any more done.
\nThe mind urges progress
\nbut the body falters.
\nFingers cramp and eyelids droop.
\nThe end is in sight
\nand brain cells bounce
\nwith a sense of completion.<\/p>\n

It won\u2019t be the same<\/p>\n

tomorrow.
\nThis cosmic, magic flow
\nwill be gone.
\nIt is too special to stop,
\nexcept
\nit\u2019s just ….<\/p>\n
