Cherry picked
i'm too tired
to sleep
the news
is still
cold
stark
today
the days
seem
blended into
one another
people morphing
into their
chosen backgrounds
of wallpapered
unassuming
the air, dense
almost solid
hard
is it the loneliness,
missing you,
or the fact
that you're slowly fading,
that's good for me?
that should be best...
at least until
i take a deep breath
and finally
fill my lungs
of you.
Author's Note
My #Nopoo from 2/17/21.... I can't recall who or why this was intended (probably just an abstract construct) .... Yet, I found this moment moving, when I went back to reread the NoPoo posts from last year through this year .... It really is truly amazing to have so many poetic moments "journalized" (and kind of memorialized) via that forum. I am extremely glad to be participating.

I heart abstract constructs. haha.
... A wonderful establishment of place, perfect for the weaving of emotions, which materialize deeper, based upon this achievement.
... "wallpapered unassuming". (Such a cool phrasing, as well as a touch point of the poem, I felt.)
... Love the self aware, contemplative nature.
... Space into fall off super cool. (Such an exquisite conclusion.)
Took me to all places beautiful.

Splendid write ... masterful play with space ... depth woven in gentle lulling lines ... what I want from my reading ... seduce me ... then teach me ... about something ... about life ... about myself ... so I am not the same again when leave the passage ... the novel ... the poem ... you did that here ...

Hey there LilD :)
Your feedback is seriously like taking a magic tonic and now I instantly feel better.. lol ✨ .... I can't thank you enough for your kind words and well constructed thoughts... I am blown away and truly flabbergasted.... I guess I have been feeling a bit stagnant... So to read comments, has me so thankful you stopped by (to put it mildly) and absolutely humbled beyond all measure....
You have taught me and continue to teach me so much that it's almost unfathomable that I could reciprocate.... Thank you, dear poetess...I needed that jolt of inspiration /motivation!!
I am so grateful for you

Dear BV,
My head went in many directions with this one. The pain of losing someone. The endless nights of no sleep. The obsessive thoughts. Finally getting to a point you start to live again only to turn around and be right back at square one.
The head and heart so rarely work in tandem. Your closing line is haunting. It’s been rolling around my mind since I read this in the morning. You note this might have been an abstract construct. Uuuuhhhhh, a true abstract construct would have included a partial grocery list, some reminders of things I should do after work, hair appointment…not this piece of thought provoking genius. Wonderfully written. H🌷

My dear Honoria, ;)
Like always, your comments are incomparable..and truly apt.... I guess being vague in the AN also comes from a place of wanting the reader to find their own meaning/understanding, within.... As well as I totally can't remember who or what was the original motivation, here... lmao .... Dammit, this old(er) age!!! Ha!
You are positively awesome, dear lady...
Thank you for the amazing feedback... I am so so grateful... 🙏🏻
Much love and respect,

From the opening, oh no something happened. Right into the, getting over it phase. Then sprung the trap with the ending!
Now if you’ll be so kind as to cut me down. LoL Enjoyed!

A stark beauty here like a moonscape yet burning with emotion and passion. I love it when you explore new and different styles. You did this one with that true genius of the Polaris you follow.
