We quote
\nnaked
\nfavoured lines of poetry
\nsnatches of memorized
\njewels
\neggs
\nnested in soft tissue
\nloving the way
\nphonemes arrange
\nto word
\nto sentence<\/p>\n

Whiskey voiced
\nour tonals lull
\ninto hot air
\nvariations
\ndrifting
\npercolating
\nheavy into
\nstory<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I ask
\nin self-deceit
\nnot satisfied with the
\nprose poem we created
\nthere
\nrecited to blank walls
\nwhispered to white sheets
\nhoneyed with the drip
\nof faucet and creaking
\ntimbers<\/p>\n

His honesty
\nhis way with the
\nword world
\nmakes me cry for
\nmy lies
\nuntil the gin blossoms
\ncoming to my face
\nmake me feel
\nreal<\/p>\n

\"\"

<\/div>\n

<\/div>
\n

<\/p>\n

Being real
\nhe
\nincites spirits and
\nbrings a missing
\npart of himself
\nbetween us
\nthen my ghosts rise up
\nto mingle
\nerasing that
\nrough and easy piece
\nwe crafted together
\nour shack up song<\n\nI can't compete\nwith women who\nfall \nout of the sky\nso I'll love his words\ninstead.\n\n\n\n\"fireindex.html\"<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

SU: This piece was very cleverly presented for it’s time. It was three columns stacked, so you had to click the feather to move to the next section. This is another coding trick that stayed in the 20th century…<\/h4>\n
