Ted Hughes said
poetry is magic
and i believe
that is true
it is like a
special potion
that unites
the likes of
me and you

It lifts
me up when
i feel down
something akin
to bliss
and you can
call it
what you will
but i say
it is
what it is

There must be a poem in here somewhere.

These are the best kind, the dark search and understanding of truth, Faith.

In the 60's, people took acid to make the world weird. Now the world is weird and people take Prozac to make it normal.

Good read, and name-dropping in a most positive way... Poetry can be like all in trance, possession, or inception, sometimes like a mantis mating dance, or lovely flowers in a living bunch. We play at it, shamanic drums delight, disgust... frightful or humorous, and sometimes all at once.
