I stand facing east trying to out-stare the rising sun I squint my eyes, rub the droplets that ooze out no, I am not weeping. it is the sunshine cutting through no, I am not sad just normally misunderstood... as always, as usual business as usual, strict or casual, plain coincidental! it is strange though that I stand facing east while my shadow faces d o w n s o u t h south bound, as I always was south bound, again and Eagle Eye Cherry asks from the radio "are you still having fun?" and I rubbed the light out of my eyes at least I am not directionless just unidirectional like insults you throw from up there towards me down here from north to south south bound train yet again ....... ... ... ... ... ... ....... ..... ... . |

it's like this whole poem is a shadow. . . of the writer? well, perhaps. . .but, for now, let's just say that I like the concrete elements that you've used here. . . and the way that you've played with the language. . . great work my friend. . . good to see you. . . ------------------------------------------------------------- To the world, you may only be one person.

With the exception of a few awkward stumbles (like: 'I squint my eyes, rub the droplets that ooze out no, I am not weeping.' that ooze out - brrrrrrrrrr....lol) this is just excellent. 'and Eagle Eye Cherry asks from the radio "are you still having fun?" and I rubbed the light out of my eyes' loving that.. It's going into my library...you're doing good these days m'friend... K |
