ascending like a wild spirit set free.
Meanwhile we step onto the path,
trepidation up to our knees.

My kind of poetry I must confess (sans capitalisation punctuation & visual recitable.. a ' unique happening every reading)... from a very creative readable poet.Savour the moment
A poetized 'shaggy dog story' of the universal relationship of faithfulness & sadness of eternal separation.. suddenly realised & put into words as an epitaph in shapeless irregular lines .
A long 'sentenced rambling' prose essay style from 'the' famous US beat poet Allen Ginsberg that does not immediately seem recitable but might work as a ' happening' at a slam,one ear to another.

A consecutive (see Aug 27)'Neruda' poetic (rather proving plus ca change.plus la meme chose) so clearly selected by some automatic process..so a similar comment! ...a short poem put into words as a 'love letter' today but.. still in shapeless irregular lines .
Trickling water, a natural bell
flows in rivets with carved rock.
Lush ferns spring up in the crevasses
rather alike the children of the water.
I hear the wind call me,
as I step onto the grassy ground.
Turning to face the sun,
my shadow falls behind me.

Soul.
How useless.
The essence and smell of mortality is released in death.
Those who have no good reason to live,
Live only by sense of superiority
Supported by sheer unbridled arrogance, raw and rank,
but the only proof of life.
die quick
die soon,
die incomplete
as death remains whole and total
