You hold your head high
on a neck stiff with the starch of arrogance;
you may live at an elevated altitude,
but your collar is as blue in the shade as any other,
your substance is as much dust as mine.
If you will own your weaknesses,
embrace the molecules
which bleed when torn,
perhaps –
perhaps our souls could
fill the same sea,
our waves could curl on distant shores
and make of foreign pebbles
a new form of
dust.
Bitchin’! Uh…I mean, this is really good, Melody…yeah, that’s it.

Thanks Eric! I really appreciate your support!
Congratulations, Melody. I know you don’t accept awards, but perhaps this special thought will be accepted: http://ericmvogt.wordpress.com/2013/03/31/the-first-cup-award-6/
Thanks so much, Eric – I will check out your other nominees as well. It’s great to be introduced to others who are doing good things…
