Hey, Skinny!

#1 Post by SOriz211 »

Hey, Skinny!

You are
the most powerful
oven on earth

you live in Paris
―almost
7 thousand Km
away

and yet
you keep me
heated

Hi l-p,

well the sun does appear to be a slender disc - wafer-like - yet humongous - giving warm to everyone


"and yet
you cook me"

^^ perhaps more sensual & sensuous would be

and yet you keep
me in heat

or

and yet you keep
us in heat

the moon & the sun
together as one
It is done

Michael, I originally had

and yet
you heat me

now I wonder if this would be better

and yet
you keep me
heated
