A Better Place (A Life Cycle) By Jason Leigh
(c) 1999	* Image by William Blake

I choose a better place--separate from this place--and from this space--far away from the confines of a controlled life of laws and liberties--loves won--and loves lost . . .

Ah, but to touch the lace from the dress of grace within the warmth of passion and the heat of the moment--sustained by the thought of yet the taste of grace--within this place.

A better place--within this space--fore I must make it known--we will never be alone--when the flight has grown--from once--being, alone.

I choose a better place--and I will reflect a better trace--within this human race--contentment upon my face--given to your grace.

I plead my case--that my place may be--your place--and your space--may be our traveled race: A better place.

I choose a better place--within this space--within this time--married to the rhyme--with your reflection--upon my face.

A better place . . .
