in the valley of my paper dream

i drifted down a paper stream

& found inside the fold's embrace

reflections of her papered face

the press of paper inside of my palm

pale and pastel, a sensing of calm

perfect paper petticoats, all in a row


pave the path for a papery kind of bow

then printed on my paper heart

are promises to never part

so for dinner i'll concoct my artist's brew

of magick and mayhem and peppered paper stew

for pasted paper skirts with my prints on the edge

have me ceasing from sailing and dropping my kedge

~have a papery kind of weekend~
