Premium Member Welcome January

Janus god symbolizing beginnings and endings, grants wishes one may regret
A full Wolf Moon peaks illumination the 25th, rising from the horizon at sunset
New Year’s Day is celebrated, Burn’s Night, 6th is Epiphany—Magi and ministry                                                
Up above Earth reaches perihelion, we’ll be 91,404,095 miles away from the Sun 
Ancient Celtic tradition, ends the 12-day solstice, on the 15th MLK Day observed
Resolutions we won’t keep, and those we can, lest reveal emotions once reserved
Ye on Distaffs Day: From the plough soon free your team, partly work partly play

Premium Member BE KIND - THANK U Collab with Alanis

video of "Ironic" is for my 'Cinco De Mayo' contribution.

Alanis Morissette, emotive mezzo-soprano voice 
and confessional songwriting with a feminist’s choice
Canadian, nineties rock-star famous for Jagged Little Edge
Raw naked cringe-y to the profound, empowering by virtue I pledge

(She’s helped countless women and girls to find their voices, to speak out, and to take up space)


Thank you India
symbolizing spiritual awakening and enlightenment
Thank you terror
 acknowledge the challenging and painful aspects 
Thank you disillusionment
of life that can lead to growth and wisdom
Thank you frailty
highlight vulnerability and accountability as essential 
Thank you consequence
components of personal development
Thank you silence
 suggests finding peace and clarity through 
introspection and contemplation
 let go of something burdensome, which ultimately leads 
to personal growth and transformation

A pivotal moment, represents as a turning point 
where she gains a new perspective and begins to understand
 the value of forgiveness, living in the present, and embracing her own divinity

How 'bout me not blaming you for everything?
blame the moon, release unriquited love and like a bird that doesn't know where their home is, fly away
How 'bout me enjoying the moment for once?

How 'bout how good it feels to finally forgive you?

How 'bout grieving it all one at a time?

Thank you frailty

The moment I let go of it was the moment

I got more than I could handle

The moment I jumped off of it

Was the moment I touched down

How 'bout no longer being masochistic?

How 'bout remembering your divinity?

How 'bout unabashedly bawling your eyes out?
signifies emotional release and catharsis, 
suggesting that facing and processing emotions
 is crucial for personal evolution

How 'bout not equating death with stopping?

Thank you nothingness

Thank you clarity

Thank you, thank you silence

Ladies sing along with the goddess Alanis

Thank U Providence
Thank U Canada
Thank U Alanis Morissette

Premium Member Perfect Sight

Perfect Sight
By Franklin Price
01/01/2020

The year is twenty-twenty
Symbolizing perfect sight
Time we got corrective lenses
On the left and on the right

Two eyes looking forward 
Coming from a different face
Must select the right prescription
Focus on a common place

Each eye is viewing differently
That's very plain to me
Little depth in their perception
Of the scene that they both see

Ben Franklin made bifocals
To see both near and far
He was a founding father
As such, he was a star

Should make use of his invention
To help guide us on our way
To see a common goal the same
Not  as blurry as today

How Do Rocks Walk

How Do Rocks Walk?" 
How does pain drain?
Is it all contained within a limited brain?

And yes yes if air could breath
It shall never deceive 
Upon the path of incredible dreams 

It seems it seems that those of us who never dream 
how could the clouds weep and rain?

I asked a flower full of red and yellow
And it stayed in place while I gazed, amazed:

One of its petals turned to the east beyond the meadow, 
across the fields toward a river that spoke and babbled

And there within my sight, I saw a figural whose shape 
was as a heart of mind. 

A torrential eddy swallowed the soul of mine. 

The Great Divine

Poet's Notes: 

The poem poses thought-provoking questions about nature and human experience, invoking curiosity and contemplation. It explores existential themes, pondering the limits of human understanding. Hypothetically attributing trustworthiness to the air, it delves into the realm of dreams and their emotional depth. A captivating encounter with a vibrant flower sparks enchantment. Whimsical elements, like a petal turning and a talking river, add to the mystical atmosphere. Symbolizing interconnected thoughts and emotions, a figurative object resembling a heart is observed. The concluding line speaks of a soul engulfed by intense turmoil, leaving room for reflection. Overall, the poem combines introspection, vivid imagery, and philosophical questions to inspire wonder and contemplation.


Erotes Gerund

erotes might allow her to speak of you as her husband
might you meet the requirements of her conditions.
to become her husband she wishes these seven things.
then upon receiving these things she shall light
seven different candles
symbolizing each day.
he too wishes things from her,
 that she might gain an understanding of him
he buys seven cigars, one for everyday of the week.
she has been purchased for the purpose of breeding
and the facts of a contract shall allow those
to speak her as married
such to be said of him.
this social event, might be the start of their times of intimacy
to create or not create.
might this united means of coupling affirm her desire
to keep him moral and decent.
the social union, a collaboration of
people who wish best for the two involved.
she wishes him to remain descent and moral
the ethics of being together to have person with one another

Premium Member Precious Memories

Upon the crest of a whispering wave, 
A love letter sealed in a bottle's embrace, 
Tossed by the tides, an age ago, 
Lost in the depths, where mysteries flow.

Within its parchment, emotions reside, 
Ink stained with feelings, impossible to hide, 
A longing expressed in words so true, 
Captured in time, like morning's first dew.

Conch shell trumpets a tale of old, 
Announcing love in echoes bold, 
Carried by breezes, a melodious call, 
Love's proclamation, enchanting all.

Cowrie shells shimmer, treasures of the sea, 
Symbolizing love's currency, pure and free,
Gifts from the ocean, precious and rare, 
Like the depth of affection two souls share.

In a world of fragments, memories cast, 
Love's legacy endures, forever to last, 
Upon the crest of each rolling wave, 
Echoes of devotion, eternally brave.

Premium Member The Fluttering Feather


Upon a sheer and jagged cliff an Appaloosa horse of many colors stands majestic
under the blazing azure sky.  An Ojibwa girl, proud, looks at the beautiful land of
Canada as the mighty wind roars.  A feather in her raven long hair quietly moves.
Below the Ottawa River thunders and the vast lands of wilderness stretch to the 
horizon.  The feather is caught by the blowing breeze and . . 


                                      fluttering drifting
                                      it dances in the mighty wind
                                      to and fro it soars


Above in the perfect sky an eagle glides symbolizing the strength of my people,
the Ojibwa. We and our native brothers once owned this land, the rivers, the
trees and the fish.  In the end we lost.  The only sound is the wind that takes
my beautiful twirling, swirling feather . . .  


                                     floating hovering
                                     a ballet in the mighty wind
                                     to and fro it glides

Who Says That I Am Alone

While looking at the beauty of this marvelous universe 
I wonder who is aware that I am seeking His existence 
In the darkness of night I call upon Him to answer my prayers
And by the comfort I feel, I know that God always listens to me in my despair
Who said I am alone? With me I have the mercy of my Lord

Upon taking a swing in the park, the wind plays with my hair
Giving extra speed to my lonely ride, lifting me halfway into the air
Talking with me while whispering sweet melodies in my ears
Keeping her promise that no matter what happens, nature always cares 
Who said I am alone? I have natures shadow always bestown upon 

In my walks, the rain gives rhythm to my unsung songs
Gently kissing me on my lips, telling me that there's a heart where I belong
Hiding my tears in the disguise of water falling from heavens
And later the rainbow presents my dull life with new colours
Who said I am alone? I have seen the signs from heavens all along

At Dawn, the stars shine upon me, symbolizing that after darkness there's a light
After the dusk, there is still a hope,and one rises after a fall
When I can't sleep, the birds sing me  lovely lullabies
And the fading moon wishes me good night
Who said I am alone? The night has her own ways to make me delight

I see an angel coming out the city of my imaginations 
In order to fulfill my dreams, she has given her happiness to me as a donation
Leaving her world of fairies and wearing the sinful body of a human
She has filled my life with  joy, and love of a woman
Who said I am alone? I have a fairy to guide me all along

Premium Member Full Moon Ritual

pageantry of stars
welcomes full moon  arising,
congos pulse  in bounced rhythm
for one midnight rush
garlands offered for wishes… 
arms catching heavenly flare

primal dances swerve
unleashing instinct’s  desire,
toes swivel  on  burst of eve
for whirlwind frolic…
Moon Lady beams through tree - lights
her radiance spilling charms


‘’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’
*The full moon rises this July 19
symbolizing   aspirations for abundance,
joy, good luck. Most cultures honor this day
with rituals of dance, music, offerings.
