what's in store

what's in store

spend your moons

it's a Woolworth patch

on a blazing, burning itch of skin

the cool white ointment within

covers perfectly in the south

beams of balm

soothing feeling priceless

just put it back on the shelf

when the bandage comes off.

WOW! I don't think anyone could be more imaginative when writing about an eclipse! I love the ongoing metaphor of skin & ointment & soothing . . . plus the bandage coming off -- I can almost feel that! *smile* Fondly, Margie

What is a Woolworth patch? Just curious.

[jacob erin-cilberto]

like a five and dime patch...Woolworths aren't around now...but they were one of those stores that sold everything cheaper...

I remember woolworths, I'm just not sure what the patch is. Thanks!
