slips slide snuggle signs
wriggly wrapped window wanders
earful eavesdroppers
earth entertains everyone
taking time to tell the truth
Panther-like strength and resolve
Orgasmic vibes slither underfoot
Woman who knows her talents and strengths
Engaging in social scenarios, taking prisoners
Rivals run from her court, trying to save themselves.
Well come on in, I'll bolt the door,
Excuse the dog mess, on the floor,
Let's get this one bar fire to roar,
Coffee's still warm, so I'll just pour,
Oat meal biscuits? go on take four,
Money troubles? heard it before,
Eight hundred a month and it's yours,
Down payment cash, the room's secured...
Flowers bloom within garden of hearts
Lovers swim through sea of tears
One and only One Light liberating
We wrestled with Poseidon from oblivion.
Enter zephyr breeze of rebirth -
Roses or arrows, we choose the clearing, as
Song of rain beneath skylight, forgave.
(Inspired by: Miley Sirus', "Flowers"

Fantastic fabulous frisky faeries flitter forever
Luxuriously loving lady-like likeable lilies
Obliterating outgoing outlandish ostentatious orchid
Wonderful whimsical warmhearted warlock wiggles wind
Effervescent ebullient elegant elves eagerly expedite Echinacea
Relieved rambunctious radiant roses replenishes rakish Rudbeckia
Music is space between vibrations.
Dance is space between movements.
Beauty is space between arts.
Time is space between transformations.
Life is space between souls.
Stillness is space between thoughts.
Humanity is space between integrities.
Wisdom is space between trial and error.
Mistakes well learned
Ego is space between must-win and always-right.
No room for kindness or compassion
Freedom is space between choices.
Stop saying “I have no choice”
Uncertainty is space between transitions.
Broken crystal ball
Blame is space between irresponsibility.
Including self-blame
Unhappiness is space between entitlements.
World owes you nothing
Silence is space between turbulence.
Fiercely muted
Belief is space between dreams.
Cargo of fulfillment
We share kids.
We share responsibilities.
We share a house.
We share a blanket, sheets, and a mattress, but w-e
do not
share a life together.
ALL creatures weep
within the shadows
of all our largest fears
all are SMALL and the largest smaller;
the illusion of existence
is the persistent DREAM of now.
