Premium Member My Thing Is
My thing is,
Yang dear,
EarthMother
is much RNA-green older
than mammalian red-DNA Yang.

Yes,
seniority breeds long-term nutritious merit,
I remember this history lesson
from your creation by fairy tale,
how WinWin Paradise YinYin
wonder invited Yang's Patriarchal CoPresence.

Well said,
dearest,
which is exactly why EarthMother

After swimming at Cherry Beach, I had been returning home,
With some very cool memories, of the sand and green foam.

On the drive back I had resolved, to take the scenic route,
Like the pathway down Magnolia...

fire from

lit the heart 
fuelling 
the drowned soul

warming 
the cold hole

to bury 
the ignorance 
of the past

from travelling 
to Hell 

battling 
black

all the unseen
murderers of dreams

Premium Member Seen But Not Heard
I remain stuck
and struck
by children to be seen behaving
but preferably not heard
regardless of behavior,

But especially not heard criticizing their WiseElders
or, probably worse, mimicking them;
although some parents,
especially grandparents,
do see mimicry as graceful flattery
and occasionally a disgraceful...

Heretofore stuffing said scandalous fête

To What End
I waited
Under the outspread foliage
Of the banana tree, 
With ripening fruits dangling precariously, 
Wondering, 
With eyes set on the earth, 
Wishing I understood
This everlasting madness.
To what end would man go,
To what end? 
A mystery it...

Who are you most longing to become?

How we answer this is different for an ancient rooted tree

searching for a niche of stable self-sufficiency.

Who we already have become together

Fireflies At Bedtime
In the supine chambers of my mind: 
Thoughts of different hues spring up unsought
They crisscross like fireflies in the dark  
Dancing virtually 3D all night

Love isn’t always reciprocal
In several cases; many will vouch.
One way...

When we arrived

"New Covenant",
we were assigned 
fresh armour.

left long and far behind us;

of course, 

our ranks had changed,
but our allegiance

Why Way
In my younger days
I avoided punishment
  Adjusting actions at authority
Early adulthood came
And I learned, at the bottom

Plays to the peak
