The sculptor selects 
a mallet and a chisel, 
repositions the 
rock, creates the tailings to
pave the statue’s patron path....

The Sun selects her cheeriest face
   when heaviest rains abate

There's nothing worse
   than daylight gray

as with baited breath
   here on Earth
      the Sun's face
         ~ we do await...

Intimate relations
          bring elation to some
        but to others frustration

        In which case
          they may take a vacation
        or try partner rotation

        Rare is the homosapien
          who selects amputation...

parents and siblings occurs by nature.
that is a naturally made relationship.
friendship is a relationship that accompanies us.
life partner is the only relation which,
we selects and makes it a ship.
so be careful in selecting a life partner.
or else the life ship will drown in a sea of sorrow....

In youth, we laughed with a stupid friend, 
Wandering the streets all night without an end. 
Friends are few, time is scarce, now here we are, 
Regretting in sorrow, as we ponder so far.

Life, like a sieve, sifts and selects, 
Those who are soft clay, do not connect. 
In youth, not yet molded like cement clay, 
When grown, like sand, they drift away....

Before love or liking  		
                                           mind or heart selects		
                                             of own interests		
		
                                               After all billings 		
                                     with unconditional ceiling limits		
                                             result rests in Soul...

NATIVITY
At a warm nativity
Is written a cold mortality
And in solitary wait the reaper
To harvest as he wish and gather

At the very warm cradle
Already the mourners trouble
Their faces an actor’s mask
To hold their hypocritical task

And above in heavenly nest
In full and total earnest
The lord already selects his seed
To cast away according to deed....

Miss Lovina chooses her prey,
By reading poetic verse.
When she selects whom she may,
Their invitation she’ll disperse.
She sends all of her love along,
Together with a photograph.
She cares not if it’s right or wrong,
It’s a hallmark of her craft.
Miss Lovina’s interests 
Lean toward the pornographic.
She’ll put our server to the test,
Trying to keep up with the traffic....

spontaneity too needs fuel
so it draws nectar from source
being the reservoir of the universe
holding all existence in its womb
and yet there within it it selects 
effervescence of an octave
correspondent to affinity
of collective memory
within our mind
wherefrom it surges
as a hue of that colour
at which our heart still beats
leaving a unique imprint in space ...

Fifty five year old me will be a gypsy. Solar powered bike/ car hybrid towing a tent will be my mode of transport. Unfolding continent selects destinations. Isolated majesty I will claim enrichment from.

                                           spinifex spikes paint
                             sore heart splendour patched up dusk
                                            remedies sunstroke...
