I want a listener; (Jan. 24, 2010)

            I want a listener as candid as a child,

            As good hearted as an idiot,

            With the voice of an owl,

            A voice that carries far and clear,

            A voice with no secret to whisper,

            And a voice that has no shame

Loudly  stating  its opinions.

            In heaven, who I am should be irrelevant.

            On earth, what I am should be very relevant. 

            What counts is the listener:

            Is anyone listening to me?

            Is anyone reading my ideas?

            Life! Damn, what a miracle of perfection.

            Am I worth that grace?

I know dog Misha is.
