Listen, just listen What do ya hear? Is it happy or sad? Or full of my fear? Feel, just feel That texture behind The softness up front The dirt and the grime Taste, just taste The sorrow before The passion in front Still looking for more? Smell, just smell The roses lament The soft hearted dove That was violently spent Look, just look What do ya see? I'll tell ya darlin' It's no picture of me "Love is attained not merely through the sight, touch, or any of the senses; but through time." -Robert Wilson [This message has been edited by xrobxscottx (01-18-2008 07:53 PM).] |

When we listen well we perceive things as they really are, not only how they appear on the surface. I appreciated and enjoyed your write. love Margherita |

I am listening. There is passion here but I am not hearing much. Perhaps the flaw is in me. I am old and tired anyway. Put it into metaphor. Drive it home with fire. Don't tell me that you feel it and expect me to feel it too. Connect the dots in cartoon outline and I will color it for you in my reader's mind. Please keep writing and posting here. |
