    "Kenny's Butterfly"

    My heart is a forest, a desert, a jungle.
    A place, where he had managed to subsist.
    However, a cold and demonic hand
    wedged him in a bottle and holds him hostage.
    His wings are covered with the beautiful colors
    of my love and dreams.
    With any luck, my provisions of sugar and nectar-MY LOVE,
    will give him the vigor and supremacy over egocentricity
    and let him come back to his safe haven.
    Until that day comes, I recall to memory that it is I and he
    that keeps the fabric of nature from falling apart.

    Thanks for the kind words. I am glad you enjoyed the poem. It is actually about a friend who has lost touch w/his son and wants him back badly. However, some women seem to think that this will get back at the male.

    If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.

    Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) American poet.
