In a corporeal internship...

(Now that I've posted most of my older poetry and lyrics, I'm ready to dive into some fresh writing and thoughts.  Since my style tends to be lengthy and very strict form and rhyme, I'm going to try something a little different for me:  a new series of poems that I'll call "TWENTY OR LESS..." implying that each will consist of twenty or less words, in free-form style, with the intent of letting the words conjure up subjective impressions and definitions for my readers -- let the previous boundaries of style and form evaporate, for a while, and let's see what your impressions are...  Enjoy!  -MVS)
========================================


Always looking within
Tomorrow's never found
My uphill course
Breathes out
A desire for Love

a bit different form...
this is nice and easier I think for many to draw meaning from... I enjoyed..


Inside the love found
many dark nights wait feverish
heat generated now


Breathing my desire
blood is enriched with more
still panting for you

Thanks, Sy -- I'd be curious to hear to what conclusion you arrive...

Like this one lots.

Yesterday will haunt
though yet
tomorrow may arrive
in time...

Sandra, tomorrow always arrives "in time", but are we ready to greet it?

My Lady:  artistic and true.  Now, just to maintain the plateau and not have it be all "down hill" from there...

introspectively
cannot find future from past
love is beyond reach
look outward beyond one's self
love awaits on horizon

Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write.
