faces and thoughts
night of congested humanity

Daughters twirl in lace and
glass-slippers..
I notice a beauty
with Bubble-gum breath"

Off in the corner
is the free-for-all"
men weigh their pockets
can`t remember what for.

Array of lighting
favors many women
shoulder-to-shoulder
trying to gain the upper hand...

Notice when passing through..
the sad, and the weak
one ashamed, and a clown.
We are all favored at some time.

And me?
I`m in the kitchen
with a tin of fish
and saltines..
gaining a little ground with the help...Vincent

Vincent....

You have yet to be less impressive with the words of yours which I have read. This by far no exception. There is an amazing light truth to this, and the imagery is perfect. Men weighing their pockets, while you weigh the hearts and beauty of things around you. Isn't that the poet's dread and yet it's a paradise. You've captured a hell of a moment and thought. Shine on you crazy diamond!

BRAVO!

Vincent, you are so subtly abstract in your deliverance of thought.
I am intrigued by the last line, especially . . .

And this line . ..
"We are all favored at some time."

WOW! What naked truth lies in that line alone!! I am
ever impressed with not only your writes, but your mind as well.
This was enticing and thought provoking beyond the point
of excellence, my friend.

Awesome
