Recognition, then allows
Traction of movement....

Narcissism's a traction
for doing what I do.
And making others think I'm right
from other points of view....

Those horrible things you said
Daggers in flesh
That is already dead
They serve to remind me
That your pain 
Is greater than mine....

Where have all the novels gone
  Name three good ones written
    in the last thirty years...

  Seems they're on the back burners
    in their place, 'page-turners'...

2am eyes closed
The thoughts spin, don't get traction
Out of the station
I go, breath by breath by breath
Answers hidden in rhythm 
Though they are lost within dreams...

A word that lately gets little traction
     though when used provokes quite a reaction

   I find it singularly persuasive ~ 
     to describe the world today as 'invasive'...

A wheel's spoke, tightened
Of what, with guidance
Wheel-turned in motion
Loses no traction.

Lax for this , its ride
Crumples underneath.
Lax for that, its goad
Dark travelled its road...

The egg and I 
In traction
Feminism is a rubber chicken

Oiling my feathers
Sounds like role play

How did he drive
those cars that fast

Far past the limits
of traction and time

Speed as his master
death as his 
mistress

Chasing defiance
the sweetest
of wine

(Juan Manuel Fangio: March, 2023)...

win or lose, what’s our reaction
do outcomes determine traction
does waxing and waning of moon
impact the way our heart does swoon
choose then oh hermit, cessation

I must take action
It’s time for action traction
But ought to first be certain 
Probe mind’s dark curtain
Ensure with purpose honing
Quite soon I will start probing

Tender mercies mesmerize
Warm sea surf sensuols
rushing still life waves
on soft warm sentient sands,
enclosing us in total traction.
mirrored moments etched in time
never forgotten.
We meld as one in our
Heaven and Earth
Escape....

she travels fast
when she needs to
so don't push her
passed her limit
cause you will never win it

she'll spring into poetic action
and you'll be put in traction
so watch your words,
and best be nice
or soon they'll find you
on cold ice!...

we may experience life
vibrantly, yet without reaction
if our view be void centric
encouraging love to gain traction

agitated minds surround us
we empathise but do not connect 
respecting each soul journey
we but try to do as God does direct...

AGE

This rusty coldly
Achy moldy
Twisted bony
Thin skin only
Crusty creeping
Drooping speaking
Mixed up thinking
Poverty seeping
Loosing traction
No reaction
All abandon
Freezing standing
Waning waxing
Sunset lasting
Eyes down casting
AGE...

Ideas swoop, so many have I
drowning inside leaving me wild;
Each one instantly sets me on fire;   
Airborne as I sit by the sea 
gaining traction and then crashing 
along my soul as I sip tea; 
Smiling at inspiration’s wings
maestro of my fierce daydream....

A penny for your thoughts
    a nickel for ideas
  A dime for a discovery
    two bits a panacea

  Inventions of the mind are mostly fraught
    as like as not to go for naught
  Plunge them into real-life action ~
    Don't spend your gold 'til they gain traction...

Pardon me, did you just kiss my cheek and walk away?
Was it just to make me cry, or catch my breath and then to sigh?
Were you hoping for another reaction?
To make me act like my body' s in traction
I exhaled as I wished for more
I know its over as you walk out the door....

Volition steering attention
Our actions of doership
Let currents divine gain traction
Making love our flagship 

In childlike wonderment 
Each breath astonishment 
Imbibe the bliss current

Poor option
Volition

A notion
It begins with an idea
Something read that becomes a sentence
Written down a chain of words
That takes traction a little story is a result.
Other thoughts enter, make corrections
Suggest another ending
No, let it stand as it is perhaps a comma
Here and there, ok....

Desires gain traction, as we choose
Dream crystallisation
There then thus being no excuse
For fate lamentation

Be still lama, choose joy
Devoid of ego ploy
Reclaim bliss; be not coy

Law of attraction
Desires gain traction

Swathed in love’s shower,
the seat of power
grants free will traction,
enabling action.

For each soul mission,
we take permission
from our glowing heart,
adding bliss to cart.

Thus, we hold a rose
and sword in repose,
one in either hand;
benign thunder’s stand.
