OMG, some of those are halarious lol...thanks for the laugh. Nice to be on your new page also Kenju...would have been on sooner ..serves me right for not checking my fav blogs in awhile.
excellent! and mostly new to me so this was a fun read. I really appreciated the simple beauty of the poems of the previous post, especially that idea of skin as mere "borders" that can be easlily crossed.
