be careful of the gutter lady
you never know who’s there
be careful of the gutter lady
do not pause do not stare
this could be you one day
so lady please beware
do not linger do not pause
oh be careful lady there
looking there so long lady
may take you far too near
so closely staring lady
brings you far away from here
from here to there lady
it really is not far
with just a tiny step lady
in the gutter there you are
down there looking back
is such a long way lady
stars gleam against the black
it could still be you lady
lady still be you

Many of the themes here presented and to be presented have taken me a lifetime rather than six weeks. Some have taken mere moments to arrive. All are offered freely and it is my hope that you, dear reader, will gain something by browsing here and that I in turn will gain something by presenting these works to you.
