Church stories leave at the end
Left to wander in the night alone
Focusing on experimental suspension
Of belief waiting at home
My phone tugs on whirlpools
And single long sentences
I think about Anne Frank
Old women wearing bandages
The horror shows they’ve seen
Monsters inhumane!
Atrocities browsing discount prices
Named humanity
What recourse did they encompass?
Busy caves and smokeless lungs
Blood short lived
Shot by blind men
Questions grow arms
Expressing tales making sense
I’m having an affair with adventure
He’s wicked, fun and most welcomed
Now, the stars shine
No one turns them off
It’s all to brief
So I peek in writer’s minds
Without a pay pal account
I’m fused to the challenge
The world smiles a hello
Announcing several new features
Threatening to overwhelm
Discovering voices with fire
Wandering inside opinions
Standing on a soap box
With no shame
Nothing ruptures reality
I would sound so absurd
Behind the wheel of a Ferrari
Home Sweet Home is in the brine
Amongst clutter and a spot of wine
Submission is selected
I’m as far as I can see
Some of the pieces are dry dust
But the overview is impressive
Spiritual books talk
In a friendly exchange of ideas
I’d like to be there
A part of the free drawing

It's all within the process, which I have not digested yet. Good morning sweet.

"I’m having an affair with adventure

With every line you write a poem...those above are my favorite.  Love the good feelings in this poem.

"Home Sweet Home is in the brine
Amongst clutter and a spot of wine"

This reminds me of the holiday season for sure.
Enjoyed the read Lee J.
