Tea

Sipping deserved spicers
treading the once upon
...an evaporated dream
of blue diamonds
and break the saucer
into a blush of mine
butterfly
afternoons
given to his armchair
he sold me back to Xanadu
the crissxcross
way we toss willing roses
a relay, a line
of conversation
that you could pick
from the folded.

    Thin mints

    Another kick off linen shackles
    how many times
    had I heard and was told
    by the assumed authorities
    stand pretty
    comma who won't listen
    and ditched her youth is running
    Woman
    speak easy and singe
    me an ethereal slow
    a resolve, a fury
    verbiage of baby flame
    shout this
    and you know...

    and I keep this one to myself
    til now,
    a flip thought,
    one might say-

    Cement truck driver
    suggests that I let it go,
    is that a dual meaning?

    the one thought
    creeps along
    like the day
    like the traffic

    {the thought-that everyone in my city whose on the freeway, is slowing down, halting, for me... for only the most precious, romantic, and magical of reasons, would the time starved citizens of Metropolis do this jam -so- that I have not passed the muse, or that the muse may catch up to me, I want this to happen (and make the most of one wish) the wish only being to talk about poetry, etc. and he, these are important dreams)

    I have it, this thought,
    countless times,
    for countless days
    and it will creep into my mind
    this wish
    while I bitch (This is Metropolis!!!)
    at my fellow time starved citizens
    accompanying me in the endless strands of traffic
    countless times,
    for the countless days
    til retirement
    stop and go
    no matter which is way out
    it is that frustration
    and I ask
    Why can't I ever be going against it?

    Ramble on..

    and in the traffic jam this afternoon

    2 semi's that said Edco,

    and who did I happen to overhear today,
    the cement truck driver!

    you do your work

    in protest
    to confront and confound
    the societal game
    of manipulation
    and it's the same
    fucking questions
    punk naked or disguised

    to shock out the truth
    and we just give it away
    and curse it,
    the indemnity
    eat it to
    hagiocracy
    if only out of frustration
    to express

    we contended with comment
    on plastic and paper
    the plain devour
    the wastes of corruption
    and the God haggles
    what your holding
    to a higher standard
    of surreal creator
    walk me through fire
    for the bitter
    be gentle to the ground
    speak as the thunder
    cuts in electric punctures
    a light to shine
    the private sparse
  • Ramble on, john girl, ramble right along. You've got a style all your own and I, personally, love it! :)

    The Ever Real

    What is two, to go on
    and you talk yourself
    into a placement of worn corners
    in the hope of cheap clutter
    wearing a red dress clean
    into a fall deafening the slip
    of it's mercy
    one another call it
    ensorcell
    a slight of jealousy passionate
    that token of breath clings
    to a picture, romantic trinket
    reels romantic theater
    silence being shown off
    like a truth serum drips colorless
    colorless bloodlettings go tick-tock
    waiting trickles murmurs of love
    and endears,
    so that you may come back
    like nowhere else in a note of him
    together
    from the beginning, the middle
    and end...

    drinking burning lips with fire smoke inhale
    less of a sting the subliminal annoyance of a tight ring
    rhyming to the time on the phone
    a beautiful laughing daughter son

    overjoyed with the attempt
    thanks to everyone who can read what i write without having to say something mean
  • lovin kindlovin kind Posts: 268
    i need a phone call
    i need a plane ride
    i need a big love
    i guess its time to put the top down

    counting crows
    thanks to everyone who can read what i write without having to say something mean

    graphemic rhapsody revived
    Einstein, a science dance to fuse Mi mysticism
    to go with it
    I borrow the dialect
    however, meditation reaches a point
    in the beginning
    quiz God
    and God did ask "What's your fucking question?"
    at which I revived, grinning
    staggering at the thought
    of my reply
    and to God, I said "I forgot that I even had a fucking question."

    Telliots

    Further than sundowns last man
    can I say it back to you
    in locution
    trust pain learned
    as tension
    it is more
    seduction,,
    tore a rise in me
    into a need rampant
    for an abandonment
    by a father dalliance
    fierce to his own reflection
    splintered in
    estrangements peace

  • Why can't somebody airdrop or truck or boat some food and bottled water into New Orleans!



    Labeled Fancy

    I see how it is
    black steeping
    oolongs pensive service
    poured in rusted cups
    this is comraderie
    sulking in its tipped colors
    imperious colors, that are red leaves
    and someday recollections
    of apathy
    in any observable sunset
    to fancy, this la
    cause it can run combatants
    blossomed and barren
    of country elected complacency
    a sunset, had it resembled
    a darkest dry cloud
    swallowing all the blue jazz
    and sunny disposition
    into wholly shaken sadness
    like the eight seas
    like the eight seated
    are eight loaded guns of piping opposition
    with the slip pf the finger
    ham radio operator reads
    clearance
    and fire remisses
    a strain that has drawn it
    down to despotic
    turning to an angry weather
    beating it into my head
    open eyes on sunset
    toward its fallen west
    observable in two seas
    of neoconquistadors
    I want to lisp
    as if I were those words
    off Brando's lips the logistics of
    breaking on the edge
    I put the flowering graveyards
    of revolution to your head...

    Deepest thing I've seen, shouting aloud about this whole unspeakableness, so far.

    The horror, the horror.

  • now that the truths are finally coming to surface
    I wanna burn Bush to the ground

    Spring 2002 weird things were happening, I told myself it was the prior trips on speed and coincedence.

    Summer 2004 on several occasions I was visited by the Federal Homies, and on the one occasion I was told we were being followed by an unmarked car.

    It was surreal, creepy, and sincerely it scared the shit out of me

    My anxiety level is up again

    It hurt to imagine, because the truth is,reality present is fucked up

    poet girl who dared to spit up some truth (from time to time, in different spaces, in this and other names, in a certain dribble) about the way things were going down in this country.
