Highway 61 Then And Now
Too many times I walked down that road Too many signs said “lighten your load” Too many faces came out of the rain Too many phrases I couldn’t explain (now) Too many voices attract and repel Too many choices heaven or hell Too many warnings in search of an ear Too many mornings in love with my fear Too many chances to hide from the change Too many off ramps that lead — to more pain (Site Of The Main Point: September, 2024) ...

61 Leaves
Note 16. 61 leaves Bright orange leafs dance, Seasons changing, nature's art, Late night drives, love's warmth. 61's winding, Whispers of memories past, Shared moments now lost. Fall's hues embrace us, As bittersweet sorrow lingers, Love's touch now distant. Yet, in tender dreams, Leafs on trees and love unfold, Moments once cherished...

This Thanksgiving, I’m thankful to be alive. I have spent most of my life waiting to die. Every year, I’m not sure if I’ll survive, But somehow, with a little luck, I scrape by. I’ve purposely lost weight to keep myself thinner, Hoping to keep myself from being frozen. It has worked, because I haven’t become dinner. I’ve been lucky enough to...

Premium Member October '61
We struggled along damp, smoke-filled streets; leaves still summer green, a chilly breeze rustling some, turned golden early in anticipation of the fall. Neil at one end of the log; me at the other. Occasionally we paused our journey, rested; took turns with the diminishing gobstopper; and backward walking with the heavy branch. Early October, our collecting started; we had first-dibs on...

Premium Member Such Fun Back In '61
The undersides of school chairs all gooey with gum We thought it such fun back in sixty-one In sixty-two we tore fruit loops from the backs of girls' shirts The innocent way we first learned to flirt In sixty-three we all wore skin-tight 'H.I.S.' pants That ripped near your bulges ...

Premium Member Vbt Practice 61 of 112
We go in deep Into waking, dreaming & deep sleep Recognising singularity Astonished at duality When bliss does us smother Who is the other? We thus contemplate God being in all states What is the source of awareness Where resides memory in consciousness Between the differentiated states of being Or in the void of cessation of breath flowing Or the one becoming two to...

Sonnet 61 'There Is a Desperate Bent In Men Who Lose'
There is a desperate bent in Men who lose, A silent howl that seeks the lie to prove, That She Loved Him, who otherwise did choose, And shunned him! Seek with teaspoon seas to move, And you, my friend, my silent fool, my boy Will suffer for your faith, for ‘twas ill-placed. Why can you not believe? Why must you...
