#NoPoo
Undone
babbles of hollow voices
whispers and giggles
what ifs what ifs
finger written on misted windows
the muse has flown
smiling mockingly from silver clouds
at times gasping laughter ringing boldly
as the noises scratches into a crescendo
my quill bleeds no flowery words
nothing pretty comes of its ink.

The envy of wonder
i wonder
if you hear me
do you listen from there,
when I plead
into the darkness
do you know
just how much
and how often
do you think of when
can you feel the pull
every time your mind flashes
that certain draw
an exquisite ache
how it sears into all,
all those whispered vows
shared between you
and the dense night sky
damn, those envious stars
when they secret beckon
and twinkle to temp
such a sparkling tease
to become pure wonder
of
you

The weight of empathy times gravity
,(
and where
do you think
the parachute be
if not
laid out nice
in a big X
painted onto
the ground
),
now
hear this, nitwits
your eyes
were your own stones
like diamonds
only much more precious
where did they go to
or how much
did you get for them
,)(,
it’s cold
but not
I just crawled out
of the family home
having watched them
eat a bomb for breakfast
kinda cold
#NoPoo. pic: me
as I understand it there is now the option to use the #NoPoo tag when we post a poetry to our page. this is true for anyone in the site
what #NoPoo means to me is simple enough: straight up, no frills, poetry driven
more than that though I think it defined the man in question very well both in his friendship and his writings
personally I’d love to see the tag used site wide. I think these books are have been graced with excellent examples of what #NoPoo means/ stands for
essentially, you are the people who created it much more than my sporadic contributions
it would be fantastic if you would consider using the tag when you post
(sorry bout the long winded-ness)

Just 👌🏻 ink, Eamonn, per your usual :p
It's nice seeing you 🦋
I appreciate the sentiments above and have been cognizant of using the #Nopoo theme as much as I can... whenever I can, actually. I was stoked to see it was created! I hope someday, that there's a limit increase to the amount of #themes we can add to our poems, increasing it from the current limit of 5 ...just a thought...
Warmest regards,
🌹-B

a perfect roar of joint salvation
Your thoughts
become my words
irrevocably enmeshed
seamless in our linked collective
ideas fold into space
emotional synapses fire
breaking laws of known physics
where the heat between my legs
is a direct correlation
of symbiotic minds
souls brushing against joint salvation
with a need that claws flesh
we two simple beings
of such similar structure
fused of fortuitous fetishism
precise in perfect proclivity
predator meeting prey
my body 'lioness' stretches
as a scorching libido roars in calling
for that lifetime meaning
Only his body's ability is skilled
and carved to perfectly fit
to saturate and satiate
to spark enrage the flames
precisely extinguish the incessant lust
Being proudly unashamed
in thundering mutual cries of unity
from mouths full of decadence
from minds spurred of each other's infinite exotic individualism
finding the very core
of hopefulness
longing and dreams
This—
is where your thoughts become my words.

d e f i a n c e
a lone green leaf
on a frozen bare tree
the lone
green eyesore
for the depths
of winter
flickers
yet stands
fast
in contrast
to the deep white
and the dark brown
no
it is not standing
against nature
it is nature
herself
showing
her defiant green.

(NoPoo 199) Ignored
ignored
as if no existence
beaten down
with silence
an opinion not worthy
beware saying anything
for it could offend
their sensibilities
but rebellion
is freedom
on the fringes
always marginalised
views hidden
forbidden thoughts
never highlighted
imagination stiffled
difference ridiculed
damaged reasoning
beyond normal parameters
creating fear
diversity outkawed
intelligence banned
be submissive
since resistance
breaks rules

a little bit of thanks
violet colors
swirl into whimsy
lush dense greens
moist from a kiss of rain
grow floor to an unseen skyline
jasmine vines
bend and curl
around massive trunks
gnarling into shrubbery
O' that scent—
proof of a certain deity
spanish moss plumes
languidly hanging
from branch tendrils
heavy, in a picturesque bow
humid afternoon breezes
gingerly waft
to calming soothe
as the sun warms
life itself
and a soul is renewed
to a perfect
understanding
of
what
really
matters.
