these entrancing wings
of desperate desire are
making my head spin
like glitter in a snow globe
this longing is
breaking my heart
the distress is not worth it
the cost of this freight is too high
i must find a renewed joy
in something else
laundry liquid cross word puzzles
anything at all
to rid myself of this scourge
THIS WEEK"S WORDS come from " A GULL GOES UP" by Leonie Adams:
liquid, head, glitter, wings, desperate, distress, heart, cost, entrancing, longing, desire, freight
So clever, how you craft the given words into a poetic whole! Ha ha, I like the ironic finding of joy in such things as not only crossword puzzles but even laundry liquid (as indeed we can do). And Billie Holiday is always worth a listen.
ReplyDeleteLaundry liquid? Now, that is desperate. But I can feel the freight cost.
ReplyDeleteWell written and yes longing is not worth the pain But laundry isn't much better haha
ReplyDeleteThat kind of longing can become poisonous.
ReplyDeleteCrossword puzzles seem more joyous to me, but some sort of liquid soap did use to be called "Joy"...
