Have you ever thought of time
As being a line
Crossing dimensions
In our minds...
A push and pull
At first, a feeling
A feeling
Unfamiliar
Yet familiar at the same time?
Separate lines parallel
Glide closer
Ever closer
To the one
Drawing nearer
To the time that divides
Night from day
Hunter from prey
Joy from dismay
Cut a line in the sand
And take my hand
For I will stop you
Drowning -
Losing time
As being a line
Crossing dimensions
In our minds...
A push and pull
At first, a feeling
A feeling
Unfamiliar
Yet familiar at the same time?
Separate lines parallel
Glide closer
Ever closer
To the one
Drawing nearer
To the time that divides
Night from day
Hunter from prey
Joy from dismay
Cut a line in the sand
And take my hand
For I will stop you
Drowning -
Losing time

Starsrite
With respect to the webmiss here, since this site is closing down...
Many here are asking for direction to a new site. And/or asking where will so and so be posting, etc.
So, I propose that a consensus is taken, for those who want to stick together as DUPers, in a new site.
I nominate Starsrite. I haven't joined yet, but I will be. SamNash did a really great job creating it.
It's a well done site, and isnt so big that we will get lost in the masses like in Allpoetry and the like. And as a bonus, Adelphina will be joining Starsrite too! What!

Is it Time to say Goodbye
within me where memories dwell
I made a promise I vowed to uphold
to never leave you and dispel
the poems you wrote stories you told
yet the clock ticks clear shadows gather
louder and louder my protest they drown
impending silence fills my heart with fear
this refuge a sanctuary shall soon be gone
the lights will twinkle out the curtains drawn
we will wander out from its empty stillness
the door will close on deep underground
we will shield our tears from alien brightness
your poems will be like...

Fragile
It seems so fragile,
this intangible thing we share.
Or maybe it’s just that I feel
brittle
each time I encounter it.
I’m compelled to turn away
put it on a high shelf
where my clumsy hands can’t reach
to observe fondly
remotely
on days when I feel strong.
But on the other days…
I want to caress all its surfaces
perceive its smooth comfort
despite the risk of breakage and sharp corners.
Such a delicate thing,
this ethereal connection –
a vulnerable sanctuary.

The last song for Calvin and Hobbes
we were gods and kings
in a paper mache forts
we pinky-swore to
never let the bastards
grind us down
we ate roadways
with rubber soles
and rubber tyres
while clouds
rested on
mountains
like fat sheep
i visit the clubhouse
a final time before demo
and smile at the dusty
comic books
and like my namesake
in our duo of terror and
malicious glee
I feel as if
I'm stuffed,
and sitting in a corner
of the room,
waiting only
for you to...

feedin the beast
shadows crawl beneath my skin
hunger prowlin behind my eyes
rampagin thru memories
reflectin pieces of who I was
he leans in with words like sandpaper
scrapin against my edges
pressin closer than this friendship allows
wearin down my last defense
sleepless nights breed bitter whispers
accountability’s weight is too heavy
causin my silence to grow teeth
animalistic and defensive
vengeance eruptin thru my veins
draggin her body between us

Deep Underground Poets
14 years sharing my verse
loving some of you in my poems
As friends and lovers
As collaborators washing one another in ink
Spilling blood in the fires of Hell
In the bliss Of ecstacy
Makes Parting ways a torturous death
My heart is breaking for those who will never know
For those I love so dearly, never to share rhymes and lines
If you want collaborate as bards or other arts
Write me at jjpoetryman@gmail.com

it's the little things
ya know...
details others miss
but not him
he knows the sound of my cough
...when it's normal
just my asthma acting up
& when it's...different
never let's it pass unnoticed
I don't like the sound of that
to him it's very evident
when I'm not quite...solid
struggling to process
maybe it's just that I'm too quiet
I don't know what it is
somehow he knows when something's amiss
invariably...he reaches out
calming my mind
telling me to take my time ...

Who Are You?
Friends put knives to your throat,
And remind you that you're alone.
Dominating you, and trying to control,
The 7 ounces of your soul.
But I seek out from below.
Their gaseous body will surely implode.
They put their guns in your face.
And let everyone they know gang rape.
Am I accepted and part of the whole?
Or am I just their weekend hoe?
I wake up knowing I'm alone.
With a knife to my throat.
Who are you trying to take my soul?
Friend or demon. I'll never know.
And remind you that you're alone.

With a knife to my throat.
Who are you trying to take my soul?
Friend or demon. I'll never know.

Me, Part Two: Melville Street
memories
pinned loosely to
a place
and therefore to
a time
nestled briefly between
first sentience and the meddling of adults
Random still frames:
feral preschoolers
grass stains, sidewalk scrapes
raw hotdog snack on the tire swing
wood bugs under rocks
the soft lap of Mrs. Cookie
Joey on his trike mostly naked
Best friend Rowan, my hero
wilder than her fiery hair
she spat at my mother!
She confided that she was a boy
and I nodded
yeah, of course
And that boy

If anyone cares
I have my email posted in my profile, but I will post it here too al9ng with my youtube page. Feel free to say hello or listen to my poems.
Thanks jj Poetryman.
It has been a great pleasure to have shared my poems with all of you poets here on DUP for the past 14 years. It saddens me not only to lose that opportunity but also to read yours. And to know no longer share special friendships across the miles, like Jade Pandora who we lost to illness. One of the great friendships of my life, we had many hours long phone conversations before she passed. Now I will no longer be...

letter to an almost lover
You: Do you want to see a real life plane crash?
Me: Fuck yeah
Hey, you
I thought about you today
for the first time in a while
pictured your face in my mind
that my brain still interprets as friend
though stranger is more accurate
I told my boyfriend I missed you
and he looked at me curiously
and asked why we aren't friends anymore
I didn't really need to answer
all three us know
exactly when you chose
to stop picking up my phone calls
and I can't even hate you for it ...
