Premium Memberinner and outer

We all have inner and outer lives.
They’re messy, hopelessly intertwined, and more
than mere mannequins to hang our word-art upon.

I’m supported, in my unwritten life, by a structure
of moods, both affine and counter-expressive. I’m,
in turns, a tightly wound vagabond, an over-busy,
fretful, unhappy liar (for what I will not share) and
a happy, truthful mess (for what I

Premium MemberA message from outer space

I AM  miles away in outer space  sending a message to the human race 

Your wildlife is dying in fields of fire 

And your ice cap is melting as the temperature gets higher 

You have so much plastic that fills your sea's 

And your world is being infected  by a new disease

Premium MemberBlinded by the Light

Blinded by the light
Riding my bike in the middle of the night
Pity my plight
I ran over the foot of a runner in the night

I admitted my flaw, but then we both saw
a UFO with 2 diplomats
the runner he said "oy"
And in a ploy to annoy
A tractor beam pulled my bike and our hats.

They said "we

Inner Tides and Outer Moons

Just like Earth and her moon
Our own body-mind fluxes 
With and within the cycle of tides.
Up-down, strong-weak, high-low
We swell and contract in a rhythm 
That effects if not controls us all.

Maybe it’s even what makes us care
About others and what others think of us
Since without the flux
We’d be more consistent
And so

Premium MemberFree-Wheeling

Found my space to roller skate
Like I did when I was eight ...
Round, round and round the rink
Flashing lights of blue and pink 

High above such trivial things
Skating the track of Saturn's rings,
Go, go, they can't catch me now
Once you learn, you never forget how

The music flows from far, far away
Down on Earth where records

A celestial marriage

Crowns our world with clouds, green plants and waters.
Sun, moon, stars, rains and rainbows ~ its daughters
Their beams from far in one dead outer space.
Atmospheres pack airs into its vast vase.

Sparks up lights to send armies of thunders,
To shake warriors with earthly blunders,
Hills whispers to snow to fall on their laps,
Leaves dance while each cloudburst

Outer face

What if we have came as far as we can
So now we are trying to integrate
End of night leaving our eyes on a pad
Could you teach A.I. to be bad
Would it know the difference
See we worry about technology
but the weakest link
Is humanity
What dreams would A.I. dream
A byte to eat at edge of a digital stream
Counting

Premium MemberMay Be From Outer Space

 Did you ever see a cow with a green eyebrow
Wow! Hope you sought some help
Did you ever see a llama, wearing pink pyjamas
Something more serious has developed

Did you ever see a fly with a polka dot tie
You're really need to visit a shrink
How about a turtle wearing a form fitting girdle
That would certainly make

Premium MemberShe Sits On The Outer Looking In


She sits on the outer looking in
As the party is in full swing
Another family gathering
With all the happiness and laughter it brings

Her family….children and grandchildren
Her reason since their birth
Nurturing, worrying and loving them
Her purpose on this earth

She reflects back on their younger years
The days of prams, parks and play
Of afternoon naps and cuddles
Forever sharing their

Outer Place

Some days,
I have to get into my spacesuit,
and follow an umbilical connection
to your mind.

Your heart has always been
a capsule
large enough for our love,

but somedays,
I just float around in the space between us,
- signaling in the void.

Your hypnotic eyes
and childlike exuberance
sends a bliss spasm through my veins.


My void centric stance
melds my spirit with God’s light,
aglow in cave of your heart.

Going to the moon. 
A noble undertaking 
Rockets are in flight 

Ready for lift off
Rockets engines Roaring load
Vibrant flames ignite

Rockets pierce the clouds 
Stars twinkle in darkened skies
Endless wonders shine
