I release all disappointments
so that I may move away from what is past.
in my thinking, I refrain from projected fear
~ the sun and the moon will rise without my help.
I use my energy in the now;
for truth is only in the moment,
and reality writhes and changes
when forced into the mold of time.
say it like you mean to make it
dance it like electric faith
bring the blossoms forth in verbage
in your eyes and on the page
if you wish to prove your valour
sing it with your hair and hands
move along the water’s surface
your mind must plow these foreign lands
I have no use for never always
the kisses do not last the night
find your joy in fishes’ dishes
jump from pan to firelight

That is beautiful. I, too, have no use for never always.
pink, you say?
if only I could be as bold as you, to use my energy in the now. I fear too often I seek the tomorrows and yesterdays that I do not have.
this is beautiful (to reiterate that quirk who beat me to it…
)
You go girl!! Mwah!
dumping everything else and just carrying around what is mine, and what is mine right now… I love that feeling.
good good good. Sometimes I get a little too cheery and over-optimistic, but its so good to remember that everything has a constructive or positive element to it. If only because it sure fucking feels better!
why do those things under my bed keep on touching me…
((((((((satori))))))))))
Love. To you.
Brilliant poem. Letting go of what is known is hard though. Good luck.
beauteous. Now if I could get past the fact that the sun and moon rise without my help. Controlling bitch, me….
OKay, I have two comments. They are jarring when placed together, but you’ll have to deal.
For one, that poem is very moving, and deep-down truth. I work hard at seeing that, and doing that.
Two, is that Han Solo stuck in the ceiling there?
Sounds good to me.
Jump!
Boobs… I like em
love you girl
Han Solo … *snerk*
“sing it with your hair and hands” is NEAT except that is a wholly inadequate word. But you know.
500 props, that was beautiful!
