Self-examination Theory Paces back and forth, hour upon hour Different forums of sky I sit on the beach, knees wrapped in my arms Rocking… Tracing implications, assumptions Trying to leave go, the echoes that Were once pressed between the pages of A book entitled “An Earnest Desire for Human Contact” Writing perhaps a peculiar diary, but A journal, coal faced with sharing…mine Hoping time keeps the caring relentless Under discrimination, my own & Man’s expectations… Wanting nothing more, then to embrace Peace between the mouths of clutter Even when running through my fingers Hearing the voice of Rumi Watching a snail slither toward the water Stopping from time to time Stretching back its leathered neck Supplied from collective moments Where the heart is enlightened by camaraderie But the soul’s desire for seclusion Where love mischievously wraps around The toes of both places, and me… Changing into blood soaked soul glances Given where each and every one Finds pictures of intimates…a Pulse of courage and hope Washing over interlocked soybeans…quiet Many thanks |

Wanting nothing more, then to embrace Peace between the mouths of clutter Examining you... you find so much of me. *S* I like this very much, my friend. *S* |

so often when reading your poetry, you expand my thoughts and I love the way you express yourself and make things subtle and bold at the same time.... this is awesome...  |

LeeJ I haven't seen you lately...I hope you're ok. Loved this poem as all of yours, especially this ending "Changing into blood soaked soul glances Given where each and every one Finds pictures of intimates…a Pulse of courage and hope Washing over interlocked soybeans…quiet" thank you for your ways...  |
