suffice to say is it the disappearance of nearing footsteps? scattered amongst damp stones of mind? they’re tucked away, living in quick syllables yanno? smiles, waltzing like shadowy figures, leaving those penetrating eyes, under my pillow of, the outside world timid smiles, learn eye contact, with a cool wind and you swallow what love dances in… what love dances in… a little light fills a small room like a revelation… warding off dark handshakes throwing yourself down on your knees scrambling to pick up any pieces of what used to be’s knowing, he couldn’t give what he never knew focusing, like a boat on a sea of guilt are the magic places in your lover’s eyes proving worth under any weight of your mind's eye, pouring vodka on “just a little while longer”... wondering about those cobwebs of opposite directions? strangling in tradition's belief becoming an immigrant in my own connection in a circle of ink I've lived hot eyed dreams, sink beneath the skin drawing school right into the spotlight learning how to sew a coat i might be lifted up by northern thoughts while rain slices the sidewalk tracing already swollen tarot cards i can’t help but wonder when souls are harvested? taking every personality i might have been back to it's place of origin... gaining a clear channel to assist when out of body thoughts burst into voices that say "yes" convincing me, like a dream that people in love, walk up & down surface impressions until they become abandoned children and the next energy transfers course, this time... i’ll keep on walking... dreaming of no one and... miss nothing |

yes convincing me, like a dream that people in love, walk up and down surface impressions until they become abandoned children and the next energy transfers you pegged this one right sister poet lee seems that way sometime, this love thing aint all its cracked up to be. ......as for me, still waiting for the dreamlover that has yet to come and maybe better off to stay behind the veil afterall |

"tracing already swollen tarot cards i can’t help but wonder when souls are harvested? taking every personality i might have been back to it's place of origin... gaining a clear channel to assist when out of body thoughts burst into voices that say "yes" convincing me, like a dream that people in love, walk up & down surface impressions until they become abandoned children and the next energy transfers" LeeJ, you've left me much to think about here. What a write! ![]() |

Lee, a wonderfully creative write. There were so many brilliant turns of phrase! Each line a treasure in itself. And the surprise twist at the end, literally made me gasp! ~ for you, my dear, can never stop walking and dreaming! ![]() You are a mighty fine poetess with a mind as sharp as your pen! Hugs with love, Linda |
