| A Barn By Any Other Name... Posted: 4/17/2005 3:11:16 PM | "bumguts" Thanks for the visual, Goat ! Just what I needed. Yes, the book of Goat is a cornucopia of olfactory depravity, whew ! hardayhar.....
FRIDAY NIGHT, TEN P.M.
Friday night, ten p.m. The squared streets fronted fiascos. Figures or shadows, howls and shouts die in ellipses of cold winds, a fallen shawl, lust land- locked. Cars spurt insanely. Obscured by feral streetlamps, the moon, half-lit, drifts through a cloud. The pavement splayed widely, waits for the night's next drops or gouts of blood.
Somewhat prophetic. I wrote this 11 years ago after a walk, the images taken from one city block. I saw the news the next day where a bloody assault took place just three blocks away from there about an hour after my walk. | |

| A Barn By Any Other Name... Posted: 4/18/2005 1:53:20 AM | Time to choose in this game of life and death Let it all out or continue to hold my breath
Flight or feet in this wasted, barren land Extend the olive branch or withdraw my hand
Sink or swim in the vast ocean of my emotion Cast out or reel in from this torrential ocean
So many decisions I can't make heads or tails of Deal with me in harshness or use that velvet kid glove
Here today but forever gone tomorrow Chase the fleeting joy or embrace the constant sorrow
Deal the cards of the restless fates again Death and life both represented by men
Burn the cards or deal them once more Candle or lighter when I settle the score | |

| A Barn By Any Other Name... Posted: 4/18/2005 4:58:49 AM | Good Morning everyone...
And what a beautiful day it is going to be...I am off to enjoy the sunshine again..it feels so good to be in a happy place,but kinda scary to....I am waiting for the other shoe to drop so to speak...but am right now with a man who spoils me with attention making me feel good, so that is what I am trying to concentrate on..
Anyway....been having a writers block for 3 days now....guess since my life is changing so is my mind on my poetry...but just yesterday I wrote 3..lol...funny how that works..so anyway here is one....
Take care everyone miss and luv ya all....have a good one..
I give
Lying in your arms…. I feel safe from harm Holding onto the night …giving up the fight
Wanting only you …needing nothing new Longing for your touch…. missing you so much
Gentle kisses you place…. heart begins to race Body tingles awake ….More then I can take
Hands caress skin…. Heart you might win Touch me some more… Show me you adore
Smokey sexy eyes…. Feeling I can fly Strong hands I am weak… Unable to speak
Body so very hot…. Baby don’t stop Ever needing me…. letting me see
Showing how you feel… helps me to heal Making me want you….the whole night through
Body and soul one….heart becomes undone Fear no longer lives…..all of me I give……

Death of Mephistopheles
Bodies in lust Infernos blazing Temples of white Twist black Lightening did fall Severing the night Spirits of death To cry
Apollo did reach his hand Fires did cease Skies cleared The bells did toll Soul surrenders To light Gentle in time Cathedrals of the mind | |

| A Barn By Any Other Name... Posted: 4/18/2005 7:42:23 PM | Mondays....urgh!! This one was a bag of weirdness and goodness and busyness rolled up into a tortilla with memos posted on the outside.
...er...wha?
Anyway, it's been a day and I only had time to cough out a haiku. There should be some poetry in me somewheres tomorrow. I may have to sift through the bumguts of yesterday..
... say, that's a catchy title -- Bumguts of Yesterday...
...uhm...sorry..
I may have to -uh- conjure up some inspiration from yesterday's writings (and what you guys have posted here over the last few days). I should have more time and I know there isn't any shortage of ideas in this odd head of mine.
But, for now...a haiku:
==================
Monday, Monday...Argh Can any other day be Opposite Friday?
==================
Yup...maybe I've "jumped the shark" poetically speaking. Or maybe some sleep will cure it? Stay tuned.
I've been browsing through the poems here and I'm still stunned by the talent here. You guys are amazing...alla you.
Okay...duty calls. See you guys tomorrow. | |

| A Barn By Any Other Name... Posted: 4/19/2005 4:06:29 AM | Night Visitor
The night had fallen bestowing ...a blanket of stars in the sky A curtain flapping in the gentle breeze... my heart was crying why
Laying on the satin sheets... hands splayed Feeling the precious spot... where you had just laid
Single tears fall down my cheeks... crying for the loss of you No longer feeling or caring.... not knowing what to do
The night sounds sharpen ....I fear the invasion tonight But deep inside I long.... to feel again just right
Whispering your name so softly.... for only you to hear Gently wiping away.... the remaining tears
Laying in red satin.... waiting for your touch Knowing that you can’t resist.... the call of me needing you so much
My body arches with need.... as your magic touch begins Feeling like I have never felt before.... knowing wanting you is a sin
You’re the devil of the night.... the master of pleasure and sins Each time you come to me.... part of my soul you win
I know longing to have you... is tearing at my soul But without you feeding my hunger.... my heart isn’t whole
Master of the dark need me... touch me show me more Help me heal the pain.... from the forever closing door
No matter what the cost is.... for the pleasure of the night I will keep softly whispering your name.... until I lose or win the fight…

| A Barn By Any Other Name... Posted: 4/19/2005 2:06:02 PM | Howdy all, the sun is out here in full force as people emerge from their dens..... A beautiful day and a warm breeze from the east ...The words I see here amaze me...Glad to have found this ole' Barn Emptiness Of The Race
The tundra of his breath A race through anger Sharp are his steps As he guards his heart Sheltered from the heat He stumbles on ice fields Empty dreams of a spring breeze He falls into the sallow of his mind
He sees the slaying of his thoughts They watch him through cracks He will leave this place With nothing on his back All he has known He leaves in the wind There is no second chance He has nothing to pack
He knows the taste of death Balancing on the edge of the blade He must choose Creations of undeniable equations Unique situations of the mind Conversations thunder Destruction of a family Death of his life
Nightmares of gravity Life A whirlwind of doom A final rest on cushions of moss They cradle him in his pain He walks the path of the slain The garden grows dark, His eyes can’t contain
The blood in his veins His time to take leave has come He seeks release from this life He cries for death to soften the blow Nowhere to go They murdered his soul The last step in the mourning dew His body of blood His voice screams in rage
His pen no longer graces the page Knife in hand His call to depart Answers of death Cessation of time The flesh cold Jagged the wound Watching his life drain His light hidden in the dark
An artist of pain The colour has gone The music of a severed heart Distorted sounds are all that remain He walks alone A child of thirty two Backwards in space He is loosing the race
His eyes once shone Eagerness of youth gone Hopes of age Replaced by rage Taste of memories on his tongue Balancing on the lip of death He drops the knife Inhaling his blood With his final breath He is ready to fall The finish line in sight He reaches for the light | |

| A Barn By Any Other Name... Posted: 4/19/2005 6:10:48 PM | Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh Today I'm on my way Only stay a Bit But While I'm there It's fair to say I'll love it. Open door, Sit and stare At the world out there Contemplate my navel Peruse the news Read the writings of the muse That adorn the walls And as I sit Perchance to sh*t To spend the time To ponder It's nice to be Back here you see The Outhouse, out yonder
COTTAGE TOMORROW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

| A Barn By Any Other Name... Posted: 4/19/2005 6:17:58 PM | breathing, yes, what a glorious day. Spent the afternoon watching the whitecaps on the ocean and the whitecaps on the mountains. Ahhhhhh...... To our dear friends in Michigan, Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Ontario.......couldn't resist
Miz, those last two poems were stunning. Great stuff.
Goat, we need more from the book of Goat !! The disciples are getting restless for Goatly wisdom from the backyard barbeque and communal outhouse.
Tera, love your stuff from Rants, Raves lately.
Hello to everyone else.
CLOSING TIME
The moon's dead light enters the eyes of drunken youngsters swaggering from the bar. Their hoots bruise my memory. So many others, each a home movie some sadistic relative gleefully records, the stumbles at the time a joke become a shambles of a dance around a frozen post. Disordered senses; paltry longing; shattered will. Depression short-circuited though ironically worsened. A thousand keys for one lock. Merciful sleep.
edit: just saw your last post now, pickles. Well, there's the outhouse quota. Goat, you're off the hook, hahaha..... | |

| A Barn By Any Other Name... Posted: 4/19/2005 6:43:47 PM | Ever have one of those weeks? I think I'm having one already.
Time is an odd thing...it always seems to change its volume and speed, depending on perception. Or maybe it's perception changing and time remaining constant?
Eh..I dunno.
But, all I have is this tonight and I have to lurch away and tend to some other things:
================================
What? It’s Only Tuesday?
Just one thin slice of time A narrow, stringy thing Stuck in between lurchings From busy thing to busy thing A talisman against Letting The Job Become The Life
=================================
I'm off the hook? Thanks, eh...you guys are great. That hook is a lot of fun, though and I'll probably leap right on it again. Habits, huh?
Oh, and there will be more from the Book of Goat. I'm considering making it a Sunday thing, though. I'll have to pace myself so as not to burn out on it too quickly.
But, alas...I'd love to read and chat more -- but...ah, but...I gotta take care of de bidness before de work tomorrow. No rest for the stinky..
G'night. I'll see ya'll right here tomorrow. | |

| A Barn By Any Other Name... Posted: 4/19/2005 8:22:38 PM | There is some stuff in here which should really be gracing pages for generations to come. The thoughts and magic that flow in this place are phenomenal.
And excuse me for being vampirish Misunderstood....I need to "swirl".
Play Before The Fire:
Like the fires of your nature set your spirits free smile and sing and dance now and happy you will be
I'm a palace of your pleasure let me know your choice show me your sweet bodies show me your sweet voice
show me your sweet voice
sha la la la la
You can take that one sweet moment and look into my eyes take that subtle moment and help me tame your skies
I'm a palace of your pleasure let me know your choice show me your sweet bodies show me your sweet voice.
take that one sweet moment and let me know your choice show me your sweet bodies show me your sweet voice.
me. (long long ago, and played..for many)(acoustic and bongos by the flicker of campfire and the sound of parties..evrywhere)
I wonder if I am allowed to place songs from other people in here...am I? | |
|
| A Barn By Any Other Name... Posted: 4/19/2005 8:30:15 PM | frrosty, welcome and thanks for the kind words. As to posting others' music lyrics, I think there's a thread just for that in the Arts/Music forum. (though you can talk to the Goat about it.) | |
|
| A Barn By Any Other Name... Posted: 4/19/2005 8:34:03 PM | I like the "swirl" of thought and soul which has arisen here much more; if I may say.
I almost want to go read from the very beginning.
(and I just may) | |

You said I wasn’t a man, when a teardrop from my face fell, But when I wouldn’t shed the tears, you said I was unfeeling as hell.
You left me confused, as I couldn’t do anything right, And everything I tried, always ended up in a fight.
I learned not to trust, and learned not to feel, I learned that most of my life, was anything but real.
I became dead inside, unfeeling and cold, And your constant henpecking, it began to grow old.
I felt trapped, me still loving you, But your actions were obvious, we were through.
You discarded me, I was something you used, I would no longer submit, no longer be abused.
Now I am alone, and I feel empty inside, But at least your abuse I no longer have to abide.
You will grow old, and I’ll bet you’ll be alone, Your life so empty, as you reap what you’ve sown.
