nor can it be dismasted

collaboration of one heart
and one mind

Written symbiotic,
for many voices
to sing

lazy storm sheds arctic tears

are your views

and your views 

are my opinions

then what’s the point of me...?

ripe for the picking

in a bi-partisan democracy....

Republican head
Democrat heart
Mired in conflict
Forever apart
Symbiotic division
Zero Sum in intent
Mutual destruction
—broken not bent

In the beginning of the new year
Letting go of all the past fear
Invisible walls of a mime
Sipping beer called stealing time
The progress symbiotic 
The physical life ironic...

Is God more Man's creation,
or is Man God's creation?
We share a relationship
that appears symbiotic.
For, what is God without Man,
and what is Man without God?...

seamless gravitas 
       buoyant in its thin repose-  
                symbiotic bliss
every breath gleans earth’s release  
      manna from a mother’s sigh

I've lost all perception 
                                 of where you stop

Dying 
the most private thing
anyone can do
Goodbye
said a final time
exit sign in view
Living
so attached to death
symbiotic twins
Leaving
with your soul alive
— blessed to rebegin

My life is a Poem,
not one chosen line

And travels within me,
each mountain I climb

It dwells symbiotic,
between body and soul

To hearten each moment
—keeping me whole

(Villanova Pennsylvania: December, 2019)...

Lazy content smile,
That you flash at me in bed,
Speaks our depthless love unsaid.
Soft anemone,
entwined to a hermit crab,
Symbiotic souls are wed!

Ancient beyond knowing,
spirals of information
float in on a frothy tide.

With shades of the rainbow
the whelk shell preens
enclosing its gastropod guest.

Where did they meet
to become this symbiotic star
of eons before mind?...

Poetry in its essence, 
—renders itself obsolete

Transporting the reader, 
  beyond words though profound

Casting off its burden
  of expressive supplication

Pure thought and pure feeling,
—symbiotic abound

Across horizons
From skies to Earth

Serenading within
Ancient wood

Enduring blossoms
Whisper abound

Time is trivial  
Sunlight reigns

To time everlasting 
Resonating life

A fullness of peace
In silence of shadows

A symbiotic citadel
Life undisturbed...

parasitic or
symbiotic an
artistic riddle

for this 
conundrum
condition of

bipolarism
but not an ism
for i am me and

she is she
no argument
between id and

ego for i
know she is
not me but a

part of my
life so never
shall we ever

           a

The writer, the reader, and the writing. 
The lines that divide them are marginal.
A symbiotic relationship built upon words.
An author blazes a trail hewn from letters.
Traveled by the readers, great and few.
To each find themselves at the same end.
This road we venture alone and yet together....

We may never take the languid road
and play beneath the purple moon
or sing in the shadows of the cool blue sea
and crush the sky with our bare feet
We may never hold all our hopes in one hand
or dance without gravity's kiss on our lips
but as long as we burnish each other's spark
We'll breathe and ignite symbiotic hearts......

Some things are unknowable as they are,
  and need an alias to come true

Some people only known through someone else,
  and you must look hard to see through

Not in hiding, but contained within,
  symbiotic they exist

To live and die within something else
  —a thing most often missed

Setting sun

Splash of burgundy paan-spit
and the paterfamilias nodding off

pink  filial freeness
silhouetted against a crimson feel- flare
(or was it orange flair or even purple fair)

symbiotic exchanges
slapstick sequences

elfin  hemlines and tarty décolletages
catching agoraphobic impulses
homing…
