not always the truth

not always the truth
set us free; we toss lines
out to the nearest buoy
on choppy saline waters--
for shelter from the incoming storm

we act the part of saviour,
while sitting pretty, dressed to the nines
in designer jeans; it's the inner
apple core that screams-spit out
the seeds,  and savour the sweet
flesh, around the core---by your feet

the walk along the river
proved to be a hike
into another time frame;
we set together double hung ones
flown in from sicily--with only
soft tissue paper separating us

the truth will set us free--
that is true....
now,  will someone please stir this stew-
i need to get back to the keys, in time
for evans, coltrane, debussy
are dining on crow--this crazy nocturne in c
