words making up a sentence
can propel you light years
six times the speed of light

washed up on a beach bereft of poetry
a heart can seem to wither
and then break on the smallest wave.

wave of hello or goodbye
triumph of life over death
a small emotional volcano.
Use all the combinations of consonants,
Blends, short and long i's;
Try intonation or diphthongs;
Resort to linguists;
Spell in Welsh.
You can't approximate
The muted sound
Of a breaking heart.
We...

Eat only to hunger,
Drink only to thirst,
Rest only to tire,
Defecate only to eat,
******* only to be aroused,

And so goes the merry-go-round!
she is by the window.
she seldom is anywhere.

she has a poem inside her,
waiting to be written.

her eyes a thousand nights
that seek to rise -
to gather all the stars.
Tears the soul...
it is the greatest theft.
It steals the
most valuable
gift of all...

TIME

Just think about it.

I have to honestly say that
I have a problem with this.

We all have suckled at Eve's breast
lifted up in Adam's sweat
felt the pain of mothers
witnessed Adam working hard
only to fall time after time
on knees in the dust, while Eve
pain of childbirth, wept,
into a universe of silence.
don't get up-ended by an opinion
its your choice, its your decision
give attention to the world you live in
but stiffened conditions get no permission

don't get caught up in the occasion
in the equation of living in cages
give attention to the cage you rage in
but creation invaders have no persuasion
i don't remember if i posted this here before...don't let others who project their paranoia, change who you are, or how you write...or you start to turn into them
Stretch marks are the body’s equivalent of the face’s laughter lines.

I just really wish that we could see the body for all its beauty rather than hating it. I truly hope that more comparisons like this can be made to make people feel good about themselves instead of trying to tear their confidence to shreds.
