L'aura del Campo

Free 5/19-21; anyone want me? "As seen through lace"

As seen through lace

Eyes blank,
oblivious;
cold countenance,
obsidian.

Yet your upturned lips
shine by lamplight.
Mauve medallion,
as seen through lace.

Behind her window,
across from yours,
a cat peers at your moon's
dark phase.

Bought El Pequeño LaRousse Ilustrado! It's an encyclopedic dictionary with photos and drawings. 1,824 pages and worth every penny of the $39.95 I spent on it. Do wish it had more expressions and words from Latin America, but other than that it is great.

My new dictionary and Ted Kooser and whatever...

{e:bussing} I wrote at Facebook:

An appeal... looks like I'll have a gap between morning of the 19th in Peoria until the eve of the 22nd in Chicago... Any suggestions on where I can go... CHEAP? Back-up plan is Kansas and that's far-far away. St. Louis and Indy are much closer; Memphis, Ohio, Minnesota a tad further. "I'm free to the right family". LOL

Traveling can be so much fun or a such a royal pain.
