We wondered alone,
As together we marched.
Some marched as they pondered,
Some pondered the part.
A concern of partake,
And a thought of the act,
Many marched many times,
But did many march back?
Tromp all us enough,
As some surely have... [read more] |

We talk of getting married,
And movin' to the bush,
Where we'd use our wedding carriage,
Out the back to keep the chooks.
And we'd make love in an old bed,
That creaked and... [read more] |

Lacking consciousness of his latent being

She wanted
you to know
the pill didn't work
or she wouldn't
be at this clinic;
in the middle of
this controversy.
The protesters
who stood chanting
by the entrance
threw epithets
and rocks to scare her away.
She made it inside
w/only a few
bruises,... [read more] |

I tendered my emotions
to settle a debt long
left unpaid
only to be met by the
solid wall that is
your heart.
And I had the
audacity to be
blind-sided by the pain
or feel the sting
of rain on my
face burning
away the hopes
of any other love,

Just a point of view,
a
fragrant facade as
we see the pretty flowers
slide under the door
of
opinions formed from
half-“truths”
only to open this door,
these convenient
suppositions
and stare at the twisted
monster, a way of life
we helped build,

Do you really call me free
Do you even know what is free
Can you help me, become free?
Im in a prison of myself
My mind is a prison for my mind
My mind cant be free unless I deny myself
I need to be free so I can live
Can you understand me?
No

you thought I was down for the count!
so sure you crushed my very soul weren't you!

your insecurity serves only to entertain me!

terry posted a new Poem titled BLUE LIGHT SPECIAL 25 years ago
Served up nightly
Is the flickering blue light
We gather round to watch
An empire in decline
Steroid-pumped gladiators
Roam pinstriped fields
High on cash and talkin' trash
Wheels of Fortune spin
For wanna-be Millionaires
Whom we watch in envy... [read more] |

pluguan posted a new Poem titled Worlds 25 years ago
Sometimes it gets caught in my throat,
The difference between fellows,
And I might in anger spit it out,
Or else just meekly swallow.
It might just be a pleasant notion,
That everyone has good,
As someone gives me a potion,
That severes my mood.... [read more] |

My tears are falling into empty space
the silent call of my longing
does not trigger an echo
What is tearing me apart so softly?
In long years of painful trouble
I have learned to live the YES
to find then in this unlimited YES

I am on the pathless path to 'wholeness': Life force is nourishing the creative fire within me.
Melting outwards into shape, into form. Manifesting itself through my self-expression.
I am the channel in my process of transition, constantly changing... [read more] |
beiyin posted a new Poem titled Forgiven Pain of Distance 25 years ago
Words full of meaning
even full of love
can't substitute
a blink of friendly eyes
or a touch of your hand
Words giving nearness of thoughts -
even feelings
worthily symbols of fullness
transmitting satisfaction and comfort
but never can gain... [read more] |
