(by Sean Lawlor Nelson)

The sun was flaming
but I was young and hopeful:
was best and worst times

the butterflies
colored the campus neon:
soon lime-green was grey

The giant geckos
were noisy problems for Thais;
I looked up in awe

A stout old woman
cooked for me, was courteous:
I can see her face

I bloodily fixed
my toe, which was ingrown bad;
bathed it in Thai rum

bought ugliest fruit
from old Thai women, didn't know
lichii came so gnarled

interesting work

Just a note to say I reviewed both this and Art Reign today over in the Poetry Forum here:

http://forum.literotica.com/showpost.php?p=32274632&postcount=2859

please feel free to check out my remarks on your two works and it would be interesting to hear how near or far you feel I came to understanding your intentions.
