 I have that full moon feeling a howling, full moon feeling I feel like shaking my mental cage getting into my wrath challenging the psuedo night and the unseen moon calling forth a childhood only to release it from my dark let it die and rot in its own manner and try mightily not to poke around in its bones transparency with transparency you can't live in man-made shadows life doesn't have undo buttons life, like art is never, ever finished only deserted for the time being even in death something of us linger relentlessly forever trust why do we lie to make others trust us we hide our true selves in pursuit of intimacy chasing happiness in sundry ways that drive happiness away and when we're wrong we fight the hardest to prove we're right and look stunned when our lies are outed ©September 21, 2012 / Jerry Pat Bolton ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways. ~*~ |

I've always pretty much been an open book, maybe too open and I just can't stand a liar and a deceiver but I guess they are everywhere in life, including inside my house and in my bed good writing, glad I had a few minutes to come here |

Thank you, Dixie, for finding the time to stop by my place in the Blue Room, I do appreciate it. I've always maintained I was the most open, honest person in the world, to the point where I hurt people with my honesty. Even so, there were things I hid. I hope I have progressed to the point where I don't hide anything. Poetry has been responsible for this breakthrough. Thank you again for being here. ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways. ~*~ |

Yeah, I guess you could say that, Lori. Why hold back? You do the same when you're primed and ready. ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways. ~*~ |
