CALIFORNIA COLLABORATION (written with Fredericko years ago!)

(M) while my music stiffens in rejoice
(F) I open my eyes to see the world differently
(M) there is no muse in this ageless vessel
     of rhythm
(F) heartache knows no such epiphany
(M) fair winter have with hours but
     a freezing
(M) comfort me quick brave moment
     so depth less
     only the soul can withdraw the darkness
(F) invisible and shadowed as a muse
     magical and mystical
     hidden in the shadows
  M) where no one can see all
     and grasp at a life force
     none too specific
     as I pose this here lament's pen.........
     (late spring/early summer of 2000)

 

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I found this old collaboration with Poetry professor Fredericko in my internet notes full of ideas and bits of poetry. I thought I would post it as it pretty much reads as done to me.

i didn't even read this... or the entirety of your message. though i'm sure heartfelt... you should read my profile so you understand i write in characters... not always writing from my own thoughts... i wrote without god as a way to understand how someone i knew once felt. i have no desire to seek out a pastor or preist or counceler of anykind. i'm completely confident and ok with my relationship with or without god. although you signed it a concerned person or whatever... your concern, although sweet, is very misguided... sometimes the things i write are a way of teaching myself how someone else could be feeling. sometimes my writing is just a jumble of words to help someone else deal with something. my writing is mostly for the connection of the world outside the one in my head. i'm a genius, a reading and writing prodigy, i'm also extremely well schooled and self-taught in religion, history, human nature and behavior and psychie... i'm comfortable, happy and well-rounded. my life is actually really incredible. yea we all have our troubles. but what wont kill me makes me stronger. i'm an undefeated person. i recomend you read some more of my work before you jump to conclusions of how i might feel or what kind of help i might need. cuz, baby, lemme tell ya... the kinda help i'm in need of cannot be given by mankind... :) and dont worry about me and the big guy. we're tight. our relationship is our and of no concern to you or anyone else... good luck with the converting and relgion thing... you should read feed yourself, path of self-discovery and the trilogy and probably conformity... those four pieces of my work would give you a much better idea of who i am and what i'm about... once you've read those, you should comment to me then. i'd love to know what you think after that.

thanks for your heartfelt concern and comment. even though i didn't read it all, i knew you meant well.
