“Love is raw as freshly cut meat,
mean as a beetle on the track of dung”
~ Jim Harrison from Songs of Unreason
Welcome, my Unreasonable Poetic Friends, to our twentieth Day of Unreason where we find inspiration, in whatever form it may take, from lines by poet, Jim Harrison. Care to join in? Would love that! Write, post, credit Harrison, link back here in the comments, read what others have written. Y’all are beautiful! ~ Jilly
Oh yes. I can work with that.

No screaming today, huh? 🙂 Perhaps I’ll take over that task, if you don’t mind.

I thought the same as Vivian but was I wrong! Devised two versions – banished the cynic, published the more upbeat

Great idea; put that migraine to work! I mean, if it’s going to hang around it should earn its keep.
