I am angry. I am at peace. I hear the laughter of criticism. I see their mocking faces. I want to know their security. I am angry. I am at peace. I pretend to care about their phoney words. I feel the space of my empty bottomless soul. I touch the spacious void of air that surrounds me. I worry that it's all caving in on me. I cry when it doesn't and I'm still alone. I am angry. I am at peace. I understand the end is coming but will never arrive. I say, "At least I'm still alive." I dream of floating down into this warm embrace. I try to smile, at least through my face. I hopw it makes you happy; my trials, my smiles. And that you are not offended by my guise for I am angry. I am at peace. [footnote: I am a friend of doreen's son, gnosis] |

I enjoyed this.  A good show of conflicting feelings for sure. Welcome..curl up your feet and get that pen moving. I want to see more. Nothing can deter a poet, for he is actuated by pure love. Who can predict his comings and goings? "Thoreau" |
