"Alice and wonderland" effect
one had gone down that rabbit hole- before one ever knew what a rabbit hole was; subliminals within subliminal tales in story books- one couldn't pick up....
the tortoise and the hare-the version where the tortoise belived less was more and taking the path of least resistance- while the hare just wanted to show off and show out-and got attention; another whole version of hansle and grettle- where just hansel was "abandoned" 'in the woods"- and "found his way home" "years later"- different than he...

Whispers of the Dawn
gentle sighs in morning light
whispers so incessantly bright
waves that lap the shore
while waking dreams still linger
each waves seem to tell a story
lullabies of kingdom ocean deep
sea embraces the avid listener
the grace of soul living near
salty air a sweet perfume
invigorates as gossamer balm
the sounds of beautiful nature
a symphony so peacefully calm
I stand here with the world awake
assured of life for the day
an island paradise just beyond the city
and today I'm happy and contented
whispers so incessantly bright
waves that lap the shore
while waking dreams still linger
each waves seem to tell a story
lullabies of kingdom ocean deep
sea embraces the avid listener
the grace of soul living near
salty air a sweet perfume
invigorates as gossamer balm
the sounds of beautiful nature
a symphony so peacefully calm
I stand here with the world awake
assured of life for the day
an island paradise just beyond the city
and today I'm happy and contented

Hummingbird Feeders and Men
Oh, how I love them seeking my nectar
making me feel wanted and desirable
and such joy watching the beating of wings
as they try outdistancing introspection
but eventually i grow tired of the constant need
to appease the images of their minds
even that would be ok if they could put two
emotional thoughts together at the same time
I still put sugar water out in the feeder
knowing what I'll attract and sometimes not caring
I'm far from perfect or self-sufficient
needing the attention as much as they need me
so we all win on this...
making me feel wanted and desirable
and such joy watching the beating of wings
as they try outdistancing introspection
but eventually i grow tired of the constant need
to appease the images of their minds
even that would be ok if they could put two
emotional thoughts together at the same time
I still put sugar water out in the feeder
knowing what I'll attract and sometimes not caring
I'm far from perfect or self-sufficient
needing the attention as much as they need me

keepin' it movin'
I'll be honest
I don't know my full purpose
why I'm here
as fractured as a cracked egg
held together only by the tissues inside
but that's life...isn't it
an enigma tattooed in damage & stigmas
steps sometimes faltering
...others defiant
I don't know what tomorrow holds in its fist
only that it won't offer me an early glimpse
so I fumble...stumble...trundle along
one foot after the other
picking myself up when I'm beaten down
& limp off to try again
no...I don't know why I'm here
what I'm put on this...
I don't know my full purpose
why I'm here
as fractured as a cracked egg
held together only by the tissues inside
but that's life...isn't it
an enigma tattooed in damage & stigmas
steps sometimes faltering
...others defiant
I don't know what tomorrow holds in its fist
only that it won't offer me an early glimpse
so I fumble...stumble...trundle along
one foot after the other
picking myself up when I'm beaten down
& limp off to try again
no...I don't know why I'm here
what I'm put on this...

Pieces - with Deliabear
Hear the songs that paint the forest
And evergreens. Listen to the winds
Cry emerald streams and then sing.
Catch the breath of the dew
And grow with it, that flower,
That perfumes the lonely hours.
Whisper the ticking metronome
of the silent echoes that roam
the shadowing earth tones.
Connecting jigsaw pieces of man
Birds and bees swirl the sand in the hourglass.
Willows weep, dangling leaves of days far past.
Meditate in nature using yoga.
Weeping bamboo...
And evergreens. Listen to the winds
Cry emerald streams and then sing.
Catch the breath of the dew
And grow with it, that flower,
That perfumes the lonely hours.
Whisper the ticking metronome
of the silent echoes that roam
the shadowing earth tones.
Connecting jigsaw pieces of man
Birds and bees swirl the sand in the hourglass.
Willows weep, dangling leaves of days far past.
Meditate in nature using yoga.
Weeping bamboo...

prison
drunk on words, you threw yourself
into the hourly burly of
the great prison where thoughts are chained
by words and made to glow for their captors
they galvanise the self
that abstract thing
and make it almost real
for fleeting addictive moments
into the hourly burly of
the great prison where thoughts are chained
by words and made to glow for their captors
they galvanise the self
that abstract thing
and make it almost real
