a voice
a whisper
a gutteral authenticity
beats against my own breath ...
to crawl
under ones own self
in search of sheer
volumes of attraction ...
amazement
of depth coinciding
collectively on awave in the middle of nowhere
and everywhere at the same time exclaims " reclaim me "
--oars stir
water inevitably meets once
again

Posted: 4/30/2008 12:09:28 AM | I have two enormous cages, separating the kitchen area from the open dining area.
Where my Macaws spend part of the day and at night rest their heads.
In the morning, sitting on my shoulder as I wash my hands,
they nod at the smug parrot in the bathroom mirror | |

Posted: 4/30/2008 12:52:17 AM | why keep sending up smoke? you know it isnt a message that matters
so few ears hear the softest sound , then hear the voice that speaks
it isnt up to us to decide who listens,
thats a choice made from the farthest distance of all, ....you to me | |

This has become a favorite read of mine. It's a darn good feeling to learn others have enjoyed this simple way of expressing. Each offering is appreciated.
Oh, yes, me too! It's both a challenge and a source of satisfaction to simplify an experience into such few words.
Oh but if we only knew... would the world not drown in a storm of weeping? Maybe it's best we don't, that we merely ache for you. Some things can never be shared; the agony of love's loss and exhilaration of it's discovery can never be completely understood by another. | |

Posted: 4/30/2008 4:46:21 PM | Kindness has cousins just as muses have sisters.
Love, joy, peace,
patience, goodness, faithfulness,
gentleness and self-control.
Since we live by the spirit
let us keep in step
by the spirit
for we are our brother's keeper. | |

Posted: 5/1/2008 4:21:51 AM | are you here right now ,..are you scattered everywhere,
today tomorrow,..last kiss to next vision.
Can you be trusted if you can't be all at once
anywhere or anytime?
contradictions in word and deed
cannot live in the same space
can you be all in one place...ever? | |

. . . mostly . . .
packing, collecting what I'll need
. . from yesterday . .
nothing you can touch, just some thoughts,
some pieces of heart i'd rather not live without
. . . in truth, . . .
i could sit and not move at all
. so i'll give up some words
. to pull together some heart
. . for tomorrow | |

Posted: 5/1/2008 7:20:03 AM | | Every day is another chance to make a big difference. A chance to start a new. To turn around and never look back. Pick up the lingering pieces, time to put them in place. Once again another day for chances, step over the cliff or jump like no ones watching? | |

Posted: 5/1/2008 8:47:58 AM | | Yesterday is not gone, nor is it lost or forgotten. Each yesterday has it's own unique fingerprint, locked in a mental file, stored away forever in my soul. The memory banks are my own special account, and I can make a withdrawal anytime I need a slice of my life. | |

Posted: 5/1/2008 10:25:53 AM | | Poetry nothing but mental masturbation for the mind. Free yourself and live another day. Speak from the mind, speak from the soul. Reveals truths we cannot afford to be cautious in discovering. Step into the unknown and enjoy every f*cking minute of it. Never been any clearer to me now. | |

Posted: 5/1/2008 1:41:36 PM | don't know about you but I don't
need a towel to clean up
afterward.
I will be here, as you are with arms
open to catch you
when you jump.
music playing in the background
to enhance the beauty
of your flight
would you dance for me | |

Posted: 5/1/2008 2:17:12 PM | What I seek from you is some validation. You feed my ego, when you love my creation.What you say is "That's artistic!" But what you sate, is my part that's narcissistic.When you read, you see words of beauty. But what they really say is "Please listen to ME!"
WOW, what a challenge to stick to exactly 50 words, but say what you want to say! | |

Posted: 5/3/2008 11:02:12 AM | you run headlong into your own integrity,
could we be more wrong than thinking we are always right..
Trying to keep out all but the best we create a maze before our door..
from the outside it looks like a trap...
it is..
and look who we caught.. | |

the hearty oat and bran muffin
with sunflower seeds
is a mixer
standing on it's own
doing nothing like the cheese
and ham characteristics
desiring mustard
or becoming in chocoholic
because the sinfully chocolatey-chocolate muffin exudes all that sex appeal
this muffin has simply
been secretly
hiding
