gone midnight
echoes
my light bulb just flickered out
weird
to light the room with a haloed glow
something's stirring somewhere
you can feel it
If space existed beyond these four walls
I would drop in a pebble
and watch it tumble into the distance

    today
    the drummest of dol days
    I reflect that I have been visited by fifty dreams from all time
    vivid as snow falling at night and people who move like friends in a dark, dark dream
    'tis that which must have brought us right here
    to and from ourselves
    or at least
    this is what
    I imagine

    sorrow rises like spikes
    coming up from several places
    spikes lift from my shoulders
    and from my chest
    sorrow comes up in front before me
    the lifting makes me
    It takes me heavy

    still believing in love
    still believing in a sacred space
    to keep safe from the lashing
    constant lashing
    still believing in her
    what a fool I am
    the difference between her and me
    was every night she got down on her knees and prayed

    moving like a place I don't know
    clearly, blurry paints its way
    a florest growing right past up to
    the road I thought had gone

    you folks are awesome
    for poetry through the ceiling. ISBN: 1 4241 8840 7

    "Hear me, my chiefs!
    I am tired; my heart is
    sick and sad. From where
    the sun stands I will fight
    no more forever."
    Chief Joseph - Nez Perce

    electric friends feel something they don't
    terribly uncertain of which way to go
    'to whom do I speak?'
    matters not
    in the grand scheme of things
    things in the grand scheme of things
    often get lost
    melting like ice cubes into the ocean of something
    us, seeking something, often one thin thread is enough
    just the faintest glimmer of humanity
    to recognise another
    stranger heart beating

    my light is back on
    I hear two clocks ticking
    it's restful
    it's always restful before midnight
    after that things get decidedly worse

    when I wrote and read that it makes me laugh - I don't know why - I think it's cos I wrote it in a very British accent

    I'm hamming it up for the benefit of the Americans - it's the only way for me to stay sane around here - to become increasingly British!

    Maybe Chadwick will join us for a cup of tea

    Ok...now I've seen lots of "instant messages" on the forum intended for who the hell knows but the person writing them....but this is the first time I've ever seen a "note to self".

    (pretends shuffle through some pretend nothing or nothings)...um, ...
    ...Chadwick is correct, Tremors...

    You have won

    Naw - I was seeing this as a thread for collaborative musings. Nothing to win here. Hopefully Rollings we may continue some time, or maybe I should start a thread for 'Wistful poetry written past midnight' ;)

    my view holds
    empty-handed, lay-down streams
    what's now in mirrors is
    glass once in windows
    viewing sand though its space

    what you gave to me
    a view of everything
    I see
    going away
