About

suppose
Life is an old man carrying flowers on his head.

young death sits in a cafe
smiling, a piece of money held between
his thumb and first finger

(i say "will he buy flowers" to you
and "Death is young
life wears velour trousers
life totters, life has a beard" i

say to you who are silent. - "Do you see
Life? he is there and here,
or that, or this
or nothing or an old man 3 thirds
asleep, on his head
flowers, always crying
to nobody something about les
roses les bluets
yes,
will He buy?
Les belles bottes - oh hear
, pas cheres" wink

and my love slowly answered I think so. But
I think I see someone else

there is a lady, whose name is Afterwards
she is sitting beside young death, is slender;
likes flowers.

-- E. E. Cummings

No, don't feel bad. I think I've been looking at your signature for longer and only just now noticed the kitten was a link! *hides* Except yours is really cute.

I feel like such a dope!! I've been looking at the pic in your signiture for days now, and I only just got that it was a face! All I was able to see was the two people with the playing cards. Then it was like, "Hmmm, their elbows look like a nose." Aha.

I did, though! Four or five times, I refreshed, but couldn't find you all.
