Ts Poetry Poet Romanticism

When Forces Collide

an enigma of adulation
captured before release
dressed down desert sand
paraded, in once forgotten land
 
makeup off of the monkey
and rising moonbeams put aside
 
eyes daring, dying only to see
out past the distance
where the water runs so free
I can taste her in the salt-tease
drying out for me
 
promises, no promises  
ponderance
where one gazes
a pill of "what's it gonna be"  
 
a lifetime of surrender
where desert never meets the sea
or a morning blowing in  
amid songs of the red dawn
riding
an endless soothing breeze

Jenna Logan July 5, 2020 at 6:02 AM Hello TS. "a lifetime of surrender where desert never meets the sea" That's poetry meant for pensive thought. Jenna Logan July 11, 2020 at 9:18 AM You're very welcome, TS. You're a lot gentler with your response. lol Ts Poetry July 9, 2020 at 10:51 AM Thank you Jenna

Lady Labyrinth July 3, 2020 at 2:20 PM reminds me of a song, The Great Escape.... got to make the most of the Time. just m.h.o., for what it's worth. Lady Labyrinth July 12, 2020 at 6:36 PM mmm, forces kind of collided. :) Lady Labyrinth July 12, 2020 at 5:39 AM lol Jenna Logan July 11, 2020 at 9:17 AM Certainly NOT referencing the misguided belief of a second coming. My thoughts on the relevance of "someday' is that although not naïve enough to think it can ever be reached, it's a vision that keeps dreams alive. You said 'love and peace,' so I'll say "out" Lady Labyrinth July 10, 2020 at 3:59 PM GOODLUCK WITH THAT ONE SISTER.;)..."Now" is the time, for many things in this life. Not tomorrow. If 2020 has taught a person anything, that is the most fundamental. If you are talking about the 2nd Coming, that is "Someday", that is tomorrow - people say that is worth looking forward to, there is some "HOPE" for you, for "Someday". But "Now" is the time to make @#$# happen. Love and Peace and all that shizz. Jenna Logan July 10, 2020 at 8:58 AM But Someday is the one we will always look forward to. Lady Labyrinth July 10, 2020 at 4:05 AM Is it? That's what most people think, until it's too late. Good luck with that one. Time is on no one's side. There are seven days in the week and Someday isn't one of them. x Ts Poetry July 9, 2020 at 10:52 AM Time is on my side Lady Labyrinth July 3, 2020 at 2:20 PM https://youtu.be/YA2h9PrIUxs
