Long Messily Poems

"You are a part of me
I do not yet know"
claims interdependent Valarie Kaur

And I wonder,
Is she speaking to me?
Or rhetorically asking any stranger
except me,
already known
because I feel her same unitarian way
already grown

Ego/Eco-centering balanced
symmetrically integral
as a...

The water gentle and still
Silent and calm
The sun setting nearby
I sit here with you. 
The sand sprawled messily for miles
And you and me among them
We sit and watch and I love you
I sit here with...

Alas, you may have noticed if
you’ve looked around the world these days,
you don’t see werewolves or zombies,
no vampires or mummies at play.
The whole world seems to have lost that
thade of mystery we once knew,
The creatures...

When we are born into this world we never think that our dreams can be shattered and 
torn apart
We never think that any one of our hopes can be crushed because we hold them so...

In my dreams, sitting by the fire, listening
To the sigh of winter’s whispering
Just beyond the window, a mystery
Breathing laughter through the heavens
In stars, shimmering messily, like they
Know what it is to be glowing just beyond
The...

Everywhere she went her hair sparkled. It glistened in the morning sun, the noonday sun, and at dusk too. The waves in her auburn hair were her glory. The freckles on her cheeks even stood...

HER WONDERFUL MOTHER NATURE


Once upon her entering and exiting  
Her comings and goings
Groceries, gym or mall
Mother Nature made the mirrors love her
All-knowing reflection,  
No adjustments needed... 
Please...not one correction
Causing confusion, she's unflawed
Everywhere, in...

My Wait For Grand.
by Cate Rock

I walk to my shelter as the earth trembles beneath my feet. 
I walk into happiness with the world on my shoulders...
I step lightly past graves and tombs,
I walk past...

One Word #18
Font, Noun, The particular size, weight, and style of a typeset. 

An elegant font that is written out,
But then when you try to read it,
It’s impossible.
I wonder if humans are the same way,
The...

She took my hand and kissed me;
I said, “No acting necessary,”
So we took off into the night
Nothing to guide us but the moonlight

She slapped and screamed at me;
“Did you ever love me?!”
I turned to her...

Make him mad with words,
Sentence his mind with imageries,
Paint a fascinating tale on his palms;
Guide his poetry like you guide your 
soul before a pride of lions down hill.
.

Make him smile everymorning before 
a breakfast...

She didn’t run – she walked
Her hands by her side
Graceful and girly, like a lady
She was certainly ladylike
I was her girl, her baby
The twinkle in her eye
And the scatterbrained reminder
That love is never silent

One afternoon
As...

If you enter through 
The rusty back gate
Messily labeled 105 and
Walk thirty steps to your right,
You will come across
A beaten path
Overgrown with forgotten weeds
And the remnant leaves of autumn.

But twenty steps into the forest,
A maple...

My ideas bounce off my words echoing the future onto the page
As my clarity begins to age 
Into a rage
Where water doesn’t flow 
But sprays

You attempt to duck out of the way
As I attempt to...

A rambling rose
Falling messily 
Across the eyes
Tossing in the wind
Blooms trailing
Along the railing
Merrily cheering
Hearts in need
Of some kindness
Some compassion
Feelings flowing
From the souls
Of those lonely buds
Who linger long
After first frost
Only in memories
Who keep yearning
For the tenderness
Of...
