Listening to every heart

THOUGHTS

white screen

blinking black line

come to me
I'll make you mine


blink blink blinking
akin to a winking

bringing words on
soon I'm long gone

and then the words flow
and flow then go
and no one cares
if there is thought to share
and the fingers fly and
fly and cry and then
they hit the sky and
die

blink

blink

blink

pause

pregnant pause

stagnant pause

get the gauze

the poem is crying….

cryyyinnng….


then as quick
as a thought that sticks

the words come again
but for someone else

someone else

someone

not me

so I will rest my thoughts
and rest my brain
and rest my heart
from deep refrain

I will take a break
because I can
but my muse
then plays
kick the can
and my thoughts
go racing, once again
and I wonder where
and I wonder when
I wonder if
and wonder
how

if not in the here

would it be in the now

then would I find some peace
and then find some release

~*~*~*~

grace….I need lacey grace
I need a whiff of Old Spice
I need a scent of Canoe
I need a man's smell
you need it too…

but if you're male,
and you're reading this….

then what you need…

is much more than this….

you need a touch of silk
and a place of satin
you need a wholesome touch
and accent of Latin…

and then I ask
did you expect
to find this here….
this retrospect?

did you expect at all
to find a mind
that wanders 'round
then seeks the climb?

did you think that
it was just a bit of talk
someone that doesn't have
a plan of walk?

for a woman can walk the walk
and a woman can talk the talk
and a woman can do these things
she can sing
she can bring
flight to wing
for all the dreams
and for everything…..

so…….

I wondered if you would
find this here….if you
would come into the clear
and would you see the
art in this…

or were you looking
….

for just a

kiss?

I find this very thought provoking and it reads like one whole poem to me, my interpretation is one of a long distance relationship, by computer maybe, (the blinking screen) and frustration at the lack of physical and sensory contact (the smell of old spice, silk ) and maybe a hint of betrayal in the last line. Its only my view, but I enjoyed the piece very much, Thank you.

Regards,
Olias.

Olias, you are too sweet....I've been reading too much of old poetry...combining thoughts of long-faring relationships from overseas to this land, to what could touch from the then to now..but how perceptive of you to see into this as a "today" piece...

and you've given me even more grist!  Well done sir!...

Daniel, thank you very much!...

MMM the scent of a man...you sure brought that to mind with this...very unique Karilea... It does have the feel of a not quite real relationship...

how'd ja know the scents I wear? ( you missed 4711, Royal Copehagen Musk, and something "Piney" I got from Eddie Bauer) (never more than one at a time ~G~) but then - how long might you go on with that verse? ~G~ = as for me I love the silky feel of freshly powdered flesh ~WG~
