the first time i saw you
for the last four years

; nostalgic feeling

can't separate my words unto you
but to feel butterflies on my stomach.
Forelsket (norwegian)
That intoxicatingly euphoric feeling you experience when you’re first falling in love.

when those eyes that couldn't last
but only ours stays long
it's quiet relief to wrap around your arms

is this be a  F O R E V E R ?

fire fire
there's a fire
a fire burning
with a fierce ire

flames are racing and raging
through office blocks and houses
they burn with utter insolence

firefighters are called
to arms everyday
to put out fires
with foam and water spray
they'll quell the dragon's
all consuming breath

firefighters are those
terrific guys and gals
who serve their communities well
they risk life and limb
to douse an inferno's
torrid hell

fire fire
triple 0
a red truck's
siren bellows
To-day, 4/05/2014 is International Firefighters Day
you misunderstand,
I am a dog,
catcher of stray humans

don't need no net,
just my bare paws,
since I am thinking no one has
likely said this day:p
"Good morning,
dear human one,
you are adored,
come to be sheltered,
and comforted in the places unseen,
where comfort needed most

Let me be the first,
to address you thus

and,

if but second,

then I am ecstatic
twice over.


now knowing this,
second place,
even better
than first,

in this instance
For R.A., who is amazing just the way you are...
don't be so formal!
I put my pants on every day,
over my head,
just like everybody else,
just like a {you,man}

it helps me see better,
two pants legs,
one for each eye

it narrows the focus,
makes you care
where you tread,
where you t-read,
so when you write poetry,
you write
more slowly,
put one foot
or one eye,
before the next,
so you don't post
