Heartfelt poem.

Language is a garden to a poet, an ocean, a wind, a sky full of mysteries.

Maybe it is not about understanding a meaning
but just another way to listen


there is panic in the I

2015-08-05
what can I say Meecheegan...
I use the I in a fashion never used before
so perhaps there will be others
till then
I am here


repeatedly in summer flustered with I

2015-07-19
I is the conscious entity of any man.


repeatedly in summer flustered with I

2015-07-19
the I in my poetry is often not only I but the I in all of us - a state of being - the name I use to describe that which we can describe because there is an I to see it


Winter

torrents

2015-06-17
most of what I write is a kind of celebration albeit dark and depressive but the mere fact that we exist on the brink of extinction is a marvel
so
even in my grottiest moments I do celebrate the time I am still here

see for your self: Bob has written a comment on your text the wounds of boycott
I tried to reply to his ? but ...


ducks in a pond

2015-05-18
I think that if you can block someone because you don't appreciate the comment, that is in no way derogatory, on the contrary, I gave an up beat comment, than the possibility to block is ridiculed and poses a threat to the free word.

it is an older man's prerogative to lose need of being absolute or even coherently true, I think.

Beyond The World

2015-04-20
Nice meter an easy flow. Down to the nitty gritty of getting on with it.


This is not a poem

2015-04-14
I'd say it's not a voluntary gift but often a choice made under duress or at gunpoint. Circumstances forces them to do more for less.


Song Of The Neo Angels

2015-04-12
Good stuff! Thick with imagery!


seriously dreaming in the eye

2015-01-13
so
normally I do not cherish
the thought
of going back
to explain or interpret
what I have chiseled

but here it is evening
any ending could happen
even if you are a shaman
there is no second anything

it is about consciousness
manner getting close to
those special moments
wound breath solitude

it really doesn't matter
in the end


Quenched into Percentile (for Jessica)
