Sun means sleep

"A word is a word is a word is a word," she said.
Sun means sleep, you know it
at 4am you draw pictures of little lines,
______________Comin' fo' to carry me home
__written in her pores.
__dripping from her lips,
but you read them on each part of her body:
______________Comin' fo' to carry me home
"love" is two-dimensional,
______swing high sweet chariot.

I seem to have lost your train of thought....if you had one.....you still owe me.

this may be a sign of my limited poetic experience but...I have no idea what you're talking about.

David is right.

Think: dysfunctional relationship - sexual innuendos - disturbing references to the song "Swing Low Sweet Chariot."

If you read the lyrics to that song (and keep in mind that I don't sleep and work midnights) you'll get it... if you want to.

I believe I could follow your thinking, but I get the feeling i don't want to, so I won't.
