Ooo Alien games reminds me of my Planet Earth poem...I found some similar threads. That was really powerful.
-Mystic Gardener- Mystic indeed, beautiful use of language to draw the reader in and paint your painting.
I thoroughly enjoyed "Antidepressant bird chirp" ... the sad beginning and the revitalization; however it was that last stanza that made it for me! Such a true observation that even when noticed, is incredibly hard to overcome... "Alien Games" though, I loved... such righteous aggressiveness.... "Go back to Mars!" indeed! that line made my day! So that's twice now today that I've been hit by walls of stimulation that are revving my mind into a realm I love so much... Kitten's "Planet Earth" had much the same effect as this, and it's a special thing to experience, and I thank you for your incredible thoughts, perception, and voice.

I absolutely loved "tantric monogamy"; it's a near perfect blend of erotic and romantic tones, with a wonderful ending that strikes hard. I read this to one of my friends over the weekend, and she was blown away as well. I do believe you delivered big grins of amazement from us both, with this wonderful gem. "big toys for big boys" is a wonderful plea definitely raising the validity of technologies expense. Your images are so well constructed and strong. Absolutely incredible... I thought these two stanza's were particularly thought inducing. Thanks for sharing these...
Binding her with rules and veils, so she will be proper. _____________ Ah, isn't that what people do with so many things after all~?
whoa sylvanlightning, you have an awesome command of words and phrases. everything just bends like you tell it to. words are like putty to you! i've always rejected format, as you could see with my poem 'Public.' i don't mind reading them at all, but when it comes to writing in one, it turns me off.
I love it! coiling current indeed! And this ending punctuates the rest; fantastic. This reminded me of that spiritual quality that John Lennon possessed; getting down to the heart of it all. Thanks for executing such great thought in such a well versed way
