    Whew, its been a month or so since I posted here. I got lost in a "relationship" for a bit. Feedback?

    Resurrected

    In my mind

    All these thoughtless thoughts

    Seem pure, real

    Explosions I can't express

    The words wind out

    But it sounds so much better in my head

    Then somehow lips laciviously

    Try to wrap around them

    Justice just can't be done by them

    I liken these passing murmurs

    To water molecules

    Flowing

    We are all just rivers

    Returning to a righteous reverie

    Of rapids pouring over

    Our own wildly wondering white noise

    Recording a source between all

    Saints and sinners inside

    Drama is as drama does

    We create the internal interactions

    That drive our external evolutions

    To find, to find, to define

    See, translate transitions

    Trying to find a needle in nonesense

    Never knowing we seek surety

    Only in the safest assumption

    Awkwardly tripping over

    Our most obvious overtures at owning

    What seems best

    We are all in test here

    Lining up for final exams with each other

    And we all dance

    Dance like mad

    Fated we fall like mad

    Freefalling in freewill

    Artfully appointed we answer

    Yes, no, whatever

    It fits, it has to fit

    If it doesn't fit

    Well forcefully fisting only finds us stuck

    And no one wants to be stuck

    Sucking silly notions up we get lost

    Only to find

    It's going to hurt like hell

    Backing out of this mess

    Because brains can be broken

    Like records

    Returning, returning, returning

    To one minute

    Or a series of monumental moments

    That measure meaning

    We shouldn't dwell here

    Repeatedly revolving in past

    We need to swell

    Grow so huge

    In the refuge of present

    The fruition of our futures

    Becomes and immenent implication

    In spreading the spirituality

    That is the force of creativity

    Finally we are

    The family of operatives

    Known as the free spirit tribe



    Untitled

    Waiting at the walk in clinic

    This seems a lesson about

    The futility of humility

    I sit my wage slave

    Working poor ass

    On a cold hard stone of

    Self inflicted pity.

    I know I am not that bad off

    Materialism never fitted me

    I must have spent lives as a martyr

    Prophets are usually poor

    Maybe I still need to let go

    Pride purchased at a price

    Only self righteousness can afford

    Gives affluence only in aptly timed assumptions

    As an afterthought of

    My most holier than thou

    Behaviors allow me

    Beat that pride right out of me.

    Superior spirituality is a sickness

    I suffer my own fool to find

    No better than greed

    In fact it is greed

    Hoarding my most enlightened actions

    To a choir I don't nescessarily need to preach to

    Refusing to reach others

    Because false fulfillment is

    An addiction of impressing on

    All the opinions I already hold

    Way, way up on

    The biggest high horse.

    but what is growth? which direction? when you find yourself in the loop, the paradox, which door will you choose? or perhaps there's another way out? life is a mobius strip, in the end, up and down are the same direction... but hey, i'm gonna test the polarities first personally. and doesn't it really bother you that you can never express it the way it was expressed to you in your own mind? the best poetry i have ever created remains unwritten... tis a pity... reeeeeeeeeeally good first poem, reading the second one now
    hahahahahaha... reallly good. i often, too, think of how so many of us preach to the choir. how so many good messages are told to the people who already know it. we need to infiltrate to gain their trust though, and that's the hardest commitment. but still, it needs to be done. we need to spread the message to people who don't yet know how to sing... also really good poem. i love that it doesn't rhyme at all but sounds so poetic still.

    There is so much wonderful free-flow here,
    it shocks me that you only received one response...
    However, one heart-felt response is all it takes.

    This blew me away:

    Once again, I enjoy your offerings.
    Were you looking for a certain type of feedback?
    Every time I glance there is something new...
    much like trying comment on a rivers multiple currents, flows, reflections
    and then its suddenly new and I start over again; whirlpool of insights.
    This is well worth re-reading.
