Divine Vibration
Posted: 1/26/2013 7:58:52 PM
When I was negative eight years
Old, the moon
Was placed in my hands, and the
Woman in the sun clad me in shine.

Maybe I’m no more than an
Imagining, floating through the
Garden, maybe I’m no more than a
Voice, walking through the forest;

But the presence is soulfelt, soulfelt
And moving through time, making
Motion in this motionless frequency,
Making the unreal, inexplicably real.

You wrote this and left it in my thread....I really loved it and thought I'd put it here where you'll have it...

the soul
in question
walked, unaware
of the situation
while god and the devil
diced by the campfire
and planned to test faith
with tribulation

Are we let down
A chance at love of strangers
from something high to use
for their amusement
and all along we thought
that we were choosing
and all along we thought
we knew the dangers
we stumble into love
and rub our bruises
too often, they're the only thing
that lingers
and we can feel the echo
in our fingers

Purple Haze
there is no edge to sorrow
grief becomes a shroud
tightly wound and wrapped

and confused by fog
turning to the past
who can face tomorrow
or ever be reached
by the light of the future

bruised fate
becomes a self fulfilling
prophecy
pain begets pain

and the wallower
drowns
in the salt sea

and the cowardly
flinches
against injury

and in the prime
of life
shuts the door
against possibility

she should have
walked over the sharp
bones
and cut into sorrow

bloody feet
marking the path
away from pain
and the beguilement
of ghosts

when a tree has fallen on your head
you might just think that you are dead
you touch the spot and come up red
do not lay down and go to bed

if might just be your last big sleep
you close your eyes and drift down deep
and someone takes your soul to keep
and all those left behind will weep

Can being accommodating be a bad thing?
Posted: 1/24/2012 11:29:43 PM
So how can I work on my accommodating skills to where I dont come off as a spineless pushover? And how do I try to take charge without taking control?

Any time you do have a preference, speak up. You have a right to your preferences so don't think of it as having to assert yourself or defend yourself and it will come off in a natural way as an organic part of the conversation.

If woman is still married but seperated for 4 years???
Posted: 1/24/2012 11:17:59 PM
I would say because of the amount of time that has gone by she hasn't much interest in reviving that relationship. He might not be of the same mindset, but it doesn't really matter if she is adamant.

My sis was separated for many years, and never bothered to make it official. Both times. I think staying married might have been her insurance against getting married.

blindfolds, chains and claims
of a larcenous nature

is it criminal
to surrender?

there is no higher law
than the stirring
of desire

and the bondage
of yearning

I'm guilty of being an armchair plotter...and then my children went and lived their own lives, and outdid any plot I might have imagined...

love, actually

theres no redemption
in all this deceiving
the truth is knotted
inside my self protection

I loved you

but that was just your bauble
a shiny thing to attract
the next jaybird
with the sweetness
of stolen things

Those eyes have to pretend

no pride or honor

injustice smothered

simmering resentment

Dreams As Opposite Gender
Posted: 1/2/2012 10:06:09 PM
I did once, I was a guy and I was aware I was a girl dreaming as a guy. I was a Viking, we were looting. I didn't have a chance to have sex because I got stabbed in the neck. And my neck was sore the next day.

I haven't had another gender switch dream.

I am dazzled by
the gifts
you throw me
distractions
so you don't have
to know me?
I cannot be bought
or even rented
I will catch
your shiny things

I just want you to know

Brizo's poems
Posted: 1/1/2012 4:40:50 PM
well, the dad care is kind of down to me...I'm not so noble as I am present. There are days...grrrr....

the cummings I love, especially the part about " laugh as though they'd fall apart and masturbate with dynamite." So precisely descriptive. Don't we all know girls like that?

but my favorite is this one:

anyone lived in a pretty how town
by E. E. Cummings

anyone lived in a pretty how town
(with up so floating many bells down)
spring summer autumn winter
he sang his didn't he danced his did

Women and men(both little and small)
cared for anyone not at all
they sowed their isn't they reaped their same
sun moon stars rain

children guessed(but only a few
and down they forgot as up they grew
autumn winter spring summer)
that noone loved him more by more

when by now and tree by leaf
she laughed his joy she cried his grief
bird by snow and stir by still
anyone's any was all to her

someones married their everyones
laughed their cryings and did their dance
(sleep wake hope and then)they
said their nevers they slept their dream

stars rain sun moon
(and only the snow can begin to explain
how children are apt to forget to remember
with up so floating many bells down)

one day anyone died i guess
(and noone stooped to kiss his face)
busy folk buried them side by side
little by little and was by was

all by all and deep by deep
and more by more they dream their sleep
noone and anyone earth by april
wish by spirit and if by yes.

Women and men(both dong and ding)
summer autumn winter spring
reaped their sowing and went their came
sun moon stars rain

wow, a LOT of visitors. Thanks Cyn, Hummingbird, Truth (welcome), Pickles, Naive (welcome back!) and Woobs...

well, I've got the internet back, and a long, long road it's been. I'm still addicted and I just don't care. I'm ridiculously happy to be here, on the net. There, I said it.

Hmm, I have a poem in progress, and....I can't find it.

Anyhow, my dad is living with me and he's moving this weekend, into independent living temporarily and we hope very soon assisted living. My life has been hospitals, doctors, veterans office, medicaid, phone calls to nursing homes, home health care, shopping for equipment, loading med boxes...

And I had the flu on Christmas. Yes, I did. To say it sucked doesn't begin to describe. I missed the Big Brunch and gift unwrapping and dad slept till four because no one got him up.

well, I'll post this just because I like it.

e.e. cummings - the boys i mean are not refined

the boys i mean are not refined
they go with girls who buck and bite
they do not give a **** for luck
they hump them thirteen times a night

one hangs a hat upon her tit
one carves a cross on her behind
they do not give a shit for wit
the boys i mean are not refined

they come with girls who bite and buck
who cannot read and cannot write
who laugh like they would fall apart
and masturbate with dynamite

the boys i mean are not refined
they cannot chat of that and this
they do not give a fart for art
they kill like you would take a piss

they speak whatever's on their mind
they do whatever's in their pants
the boys i mean are not refined
they shake the mountains when they dance

It's just less about sex,

you can buy my body
with your skill
with your art
and you won't care
and I won't mind

but if you ever wonder
for a minute
what you might find
your ideas
are the asking price

i think that it wont be a bore
when everything's an open door
and open doors need to be knocked

so stock your life experience
by ducking underneath the fence
and walking from the door that's locked

and walking from the life that's blocked
'cause open doors need to be knocked
and empty lives to be restocked

and piles of happiness within
and any less would be a sin
i think that it wont be a bore
when everything's an open door
