Premium Member Little nothings

It's nothing..

Whatever seems

That's it

It's nothing...



It's not nothing

Nothing seems as

Something and

It's not something...



Indescribable words

Used as words

That may appear as

Other describable words...



Brevity seems best...

Beauty

True beauty has no title.
To be beautiful is not to be objectified but in awe of. 
The beauty in your eyes....
Sunlight captured in a smile
Is beauty truly definable?
Or is it more? 

Beauty is a inspired feeling creating joy and excitement.
True beauty goes far beyond confidence 
Beyond the ability to describe... but feel. 

And in every describable way known....

You are beautiful.

Premium Member Whiteness of the Whale

Whiteness of the Whale

(a chapter in Moby Dick)~

whiteness is nothing's void which may appear

lovely or terrifying~or simply as the white

known by convention~~but the whiteness itself

is not describable except as appearances of a 

whale which had severed Ahab's leg and sparked 

his revenge~or as Ahab's and our own deaths 

of the attachments we own~~such are storied 

appearances of Whiteness~~

The Idol For the Idle

When one is mostly idle;
Laziness is one's idol:
Things are stopped in the middle;
To use your time you fiddle...

The idle hears out riddle
But feels not its sharp needle
It's a voice that can tweedle
And - watch it - feet that diddle

He can't hold horse's bridle
And while walking not sidle;
Surely can read the Bible
And try the describable
But won't any verse scribble...

On that point choose to dribble.

Dreaming About You

Her mind
Reveling like
A sea of glass
As a crystal

Pondering
As deep as a well
With a satire way
About her, with

A touch of
Babylon
Love dwelling with
Irresistible ways

Sassy speech with
Spirited walk
Eyes rich and deep 
Blue as the ocean

As two, two carat
Diamonds sparkling
Lips a deep ruby red
Body UN-describable

As I awake from the passed
She stands in front of me
Aged in years gray hair
Unchanged through my eyes   

(Fiction mine split long ago lol)
