Finding a pocket of air, threading under wind’s direction
Promising new voice, leaning forward with elaborate ideas
There is no hesitation, my dreams believe with roving hands
Between all mental activities…
Amusing impulses…flicker touching events

Gravity accepts self presentation…firmly different
Filled with extra sensory perceptions, light in weight
Neither asking my name or caring, simply visiting now and then
To what definition then, was the means of cultural production?

I never liked reading cosmopolitan…or Hollywood’s fabrications
Having equal access to a particular spirit
You feel the presence, and hear the overwhelming silence
Embracing all their accusations…expressing alternatives

I think I’m getting better at listening. Voice-driven by a natural
Theater, reading considerable volume of aesthetic homelessness
Stretching towards the capacity of imagination
With the ability of feeding spirit, permitting associate

Diversity of others, determined to feel their rite of passage
Learning as we go…what amazing bravado’s!
Making room for faith…and life of mind….at the library
With an animated presence….pressing internal designs

Identities of what desire formulates minds
Another wayside expression…nonetheless, attempting a cause
Of direction without being trendy or smug….we inherit immortality
Every quest for knowledge finding their urgent need
quenched with
Acceptance…as intellect stands by meaning, pronounced and fat

So, I lift the atlas out of my trunk, close my eyes,
Point my finger to a town north…one of which I own a personal connection to…
Haply submitting to poetic intuition...why…because I’d like very much
To contribute something to the conversation?

Your poems take a the reader into deep introspection and 'conversation'. Very well thought out stuff, if but a little confusing to me though. *S*
