of vast nature be part
hear the salty sea waves rush in with froth and foam
steer the heart

stretch out on sand
merge to make sea, sand and sun home
disband

go dive
swim, walk, sleep, roam
live

of vast nature be part,
merge to make sea, sand and sun home
live

Reverberations

Like a piece of ground where bombs go off repeatedly,
my inner landscape is perpetually marked
by these explosions of sorrow,
made all the worse
by the lack of a listening ear,
a warm open heart
or an outstrerched hand.

I have constructed a map
but it's incomplete,by its nature;
so even now,I might stumble into an old hole
or a new one,created
by reverberations underground;
the noise like distant music,
a  constant drumbeat.

We do not dance
I might call it the Liturgy of Loss,
a dance to the music of rhyme;
Patterns abd shapes hold the feelings
and express them.The shape of these forms
is a container for the grief.

In this way,I indicate
that life will go on;I hear the healing music
and sing to its melodies
like a mermaid on the edge of the sea in winter
when the water is cold and green like his eyes,
and the rocks are hard like large fists.

Nature can be a s ymbol for such emotion
we cannot walk without a tear in ech eye
and a softening of our hearts
as tenderly we touch the world
and are touched in turn by each other.

Stretch out your hand to meet mine.
We can hold each other better
than each can hold theirself.
Like in sex, the meaning is not the climax
but the giving and being given;
receiving and being received.
The sacredness of the erotic needs no explanation
to a gardener or a fisherman
but may need it for the information saturated,postmodern
who dwell in the fascist virtual reality
we call life on earth today

Summer beneath clear sky, 
Squalling seagulls swoop to pilfer a bit of food
hurl up high. 

Boys bask with joy
in the sun breezy playful mood. 
Enjoy. 

Blue sea, 
honey-sand you'd
see.

Kites fly in open sky 
as they run in a cheerful mood. 
See!

The Scars On Your Arms

I found you in my peripheral the other day
Thought I had scrubbed you out, but i was wrong
And I hear that I'm off your radar but I can't believe that
Or I won't believe that

Cause you were like a drug dealer
Dealing listening ears and crying shoulders
Dealing blood and tears and sly winks
But you never shoot your own junk
Just made sure we were all buying

And now I still can't drive by 12th and D
Without trying to remember
Who got cuffed to the porch rail
Cause they were getting outta hand
Or that night you pointed your claw at me
And marked me for your own

You'd always tell me that I knew why
I knew the reason didn't I
Abd I was too scared to tell you no
No, sorry, man, I didn't know
Still don't

But I still can't drive past Java Jazz
Or where it used it be
Without seeing you rock out to The Sickness for the thousandth time

When everybody else got clean of you, I was the one who still had the shakes
It took six people to talk me down
Open my eyes
It took bolt cutters to sever those strings

And now I'm standing by myself, bleeding into this wine glass for no real reason
Guess I'll put on a band aid and start walking
Might as well put down the blades and start walking
That's all I've ever known how to do
Just sew it up and move on

But I think you know why I still can't walk the railroad tracks without casting glances to my back
To see if you're still there

You're not
But you knew that

Maybe we'll see face to face again sine day, 
But we'll sure never bleed vein to vein again someday
And I think you know why

And maybe someday I'll walk down 14th without looking up to the balcony reminding myself that time-turners aren't real

I guess I still hold on because I know that when I finally let it go, it'll be gone

And all the time I spent working my way to your right hand will have been a waste

but even if I can't abide the vampiric twinkle in your eye I know that somehow I'm still under your skin
In your veins

I know that our book is still open like a wound
Like the scars on your arm
And before I slap on the band aid and walk away I guess I just need to say
That I'll never walk down the railroad tracks again without tossing a glance over my shoulder

Wishing you were still there

Premium Member A Pet Minichu

Petite five-pound Yorkie; 
mother nature is full of small surprises, he's 
scant dorky. 

Mind of his own, 
always so hungry, gnaws on his
dull bone. 

Wind howls, 
Tator, my whizz,
growls. 

I wish my small Yorkie 
could talk, instead, demands with his 
growls.

Learn

Strong exercise of your brain take,
The stronger money you can make,
Weak exercise cause money to shake.

Proper physical exercise increase your health,
Proper mental exercise increqse your wealth,
Laziness decrease both health and wealth.

True learning fear usually dissapear,
Passion abd burning desire appear,
Low learning cause of fear.

What it feels working for money?
Multiply your last month by fifty,
You will get what you occupy.

Month of people have price,
Because of human emotion in twice,
Are fear and greeds can advice.

Emotion stands for energy in motion,
Be truthful about your emotion,
In favour use mind and emotion.

Observe and not react your emotion,
Because your emotion are your emotion,
You have to learn your emotion.

Avoid trap of desire and fear,
School uneducate handle money and fear,
I can't make it clear.

Ignorance intensified usually desire and fear,
Brial patch are greed and fear, 
Thats why rich have money fear.

Life is between ignorance and illumination,
It needs money searching of information,
You should contribute to be profession.

Solving problems by choosing your thoughtness,
They play part of your weakness,
You will have alot of neediness.

If you can comprehend the simplicity,
Your life will be financially easy,
Simple that why idea are busy.

Adults don't understand Asset and liability,
Thats cause them to be silly,
To be rich become very difficulty.

Month adults escaped idea of simplicity,
Because they have being educated differently,
They don't use Asset but liability.

Wealth ocuq on the word of literacy,
And not the financial literacy,
To be confused react in dictionary.

Train accountancy but in average person,
As well be written in mandarin, 
Words in definition but difficulty comprehension.

Money makes obvious tragic human flaw,
Spotlight on what they don't know,
Money only accentuates the cash-flow.

Run into couple all the time,
They change their names all time,
Their financial dilemma is the same.

The battle is waged whenever,
Laws are make in wherever,
 Battle will go on forever.

Uniforms usually get up everyday, 
Work and loose taxes pay,
Rich play games in that way.

Premium Member Animal Stew

Alison Alligator eating artichokes on a ant hill,
     watching
     Beverly Bear floating on a cloud over there,
     which developed a leak,
     drenching
     Charlotte the twin headed elephant
     up to their knees,
     floating
     Danny the dingo swimming past.
     While watching,
      Eli the iguana,
     slithering over a leaf
     sharing a log,
     with Francis the frog looking over,
     as Gwenda the goose flew overhead
     into the gum tree,
     where,
     Helen the hermit had laid down her head,
     on
     Ivy the twinning snake,
     who was always late,
     slithered up the tree,
     to give
     Jay the monkey,
     who was feeling funky,
     a fright.
     she dropped a nut on,
     Karen the kite,
     who was in flight one starry night.
     As Lil the parrot continued to trill,
     while
     Marsha the mammoth grew quite still,
     to much noise was making her ill,
     gave her the shakes
     and 
     Nosey Nancy the ant came up out of her mound
     to see what was shaking the ground all around.
     Olive the ostrich bent all her knees,
     standing straight was making her sneeze!
     Then
      Penelope the porcupine trotted on by
     to keep an appointment with 
      Quirky the quill,
      she was the queen of everything,
      she was quite mean.
     pushing
     Ruth the rambling rabbit into,
     Silly sue who was a sea lion and lived in Sillyville,
     and lived there still.
     Alongside
     Terrible Tonya the Tonga tiger,
     who danced with,
     Uncelet Uris who came from the north,
      because of to many Tonga dancers rolling tires back abd forth.
     Violet the vampire bat flew down to show
     Wilson Lucille the very large whale,
     how to stay out of jail.
     she had a tendency you see,
     to hang out with
     Xantus, the hummingbird,
     who lived on a yacht with a 
     Yak Zack ,
     and stole yogurt by the lot.
     Finally to tired to tired to chat anymore,
     Alison, Beverly, Charlotte, Danny, Eli, Francis, Gwenda, Helen, Ivy, Jay,
     Karen, Lil, Marsha, Nancy, Olive, Penelope, Quirky, Ruth, Sue, Tonya, Uris, Violet, Wilson Lucille, Xantus,  and Yak Zak
     fell asleep on the floor.

When I was  ten years old
At that age I was considered to be brave boy;
I was told.

I loved hiking
Friends had nicknamed me, with great joy--
'Viking'

Made me
Happy, yet coy
Gee!

Friends had nicknamed me, with great joy--
