black light posters
lava lamps
purple haze
and mega amps
bright **** rugs
in pink and green
long straight hair
or Afro-Sheen
go ask Alice
how time flies
starships blast off
In her eyes
mini-skirt
hair down̈ long,
pink glasses
youths are high,
will skip their classes
yellow ribbons
in her hair
Vietnam
Scarborough Fair
beaded curtain
leather and lace
morals gone
Without a trace
Mother Mary
let it be
flower power
love for free
you can find
a cause to mend
but it's hard
to find a friend
psychedelic
music blasts
what was "groovy"
now the past

Your touch so missed
As I lay and time ticked
Restless heart aching
For you in the morning
Tossing unable to sleep
Thoughts diving deep
Your love stirred in melody
And then it sets me free!

Poppies
Paradise
And playing the moon game
With the last vestiges of sin
All a memory forgotten
Have no fear
Drink it in
You children of
The Valley of
Ten Thousand Smokes
The life in you
Has passed on

Timeworn,
"she was weeping, banally, in the moonlight"
We, in some strange power’s employ, move on a rigorous line
Our thoughts broadcast in reverse of linear time
Laying down fresh electric cable so our minds can again spin webs and half-eaten threads
To stand ready for launch from
Cape Canaveral
Young astronauts, and cultural fallout, spun in exhilarating swirl of places and vividly half-described incidents
Experiments explored in zero gravity
Starlight, starbright
first time I apogee tonight
Impaled upon the high temples of Min
flowered in the sun
A collective come undone
Circumferencing quicksand
as worlds tilting badly off-center
In the death ovens
they go spiraling down into driftglass

A collection of ‘Love is…’ Poetry
Bird
Love is free.
Give it to me.
Love has what I need;
Empathy.

I need to find a stronger kind of love.
Not a love that could become,
But one that has been destined.
I have no time for mere pretending.
Not a love taken to build it wrong;
Love does not last if it begins undone.
Love must be free for me to find it,
Because I am unlike any other, I truly am gifted.
True love truly believes in the truth,
While all else fails through lack of faith.
I believe in your empty needs, you they suit,
But I am searching for a unique kind of grace.
If I was like you then the whole world would remain wrong.
All the tales you tell are other people’s songs.
Go create and live your life.
Allow me to find the right shape and then I will be gone…

I feel like I should write
Though I'm not quite sure what to say
It seems like I feel everything so intensely
Until I try to capture it and it's gone
Words don't seem to work well these days
I'm really not even sure how I'm doing
I feel ready to have a successful week
Yet I also feel heavily disconnected from you
Maybe I am finally accepting my feelings for another
Allowing myself to explore the potential new flame
Maybe I felt held back by your distaste towards her
I realize now that it heavily tints my interactions with her
But it's not about her
And It's not about you
It's honestly about me
And the way I've been living
I have been so consumed by
Our love and all of this polyam drama
That I'm forgetting to live as an actual human
Forgetting that I exist without you too
I know it heavily affects you and
Stresses you out far more than I
So maybe this distance is for you too
Then again, you asked me not to pull away
What else can I do though
When you're consumed by another
And I feel empty and alone too often?
These feelings have led my life far too long already
So I'm stepping up my focus
I am working more on myself again
Because if somehow things get rough
I need to have someone to fall back on
For the first time ever
I've found the healthiest opportunity
The most reliable choice I should've made sooner
And it's me
I am my own foundation
My world exists through my own perception
So in the likely event of some sort of chaos
I am finally ready to catch myself
I will be ok regardless of circumstance
And that's extremely liberating

Free love is hard
But I wouldn't be here
If I didn't love you

I am constantly checking myself
When problematic thoughts enter my mind
Or negative feelings originate in
The messed up ways I've been socialized to think
I do not wish to own anyone or anything
Yet sometimes possessive thoughts plague me
I must remind myself that we are all only humans
Trying to find our best route to happiness
This one article stated that
The hardest part of polyam relationships
Lies in the negotiation between
Your and your partners' needs
So I must always remain on guard
Because the jealousy and sadness coming from within
Was bred by the broken systems we grew up in
And redefining those is a part of my resistance
Monogamy stems from the patriarchy
And sexism lies within that
Possessiveness and jealousy are not cute
They only lead to blaming others for your own inconsistencies
And I am a mess of inconsistencies

The Sixties were hip.
Perhaps too hip with the ****** revolution.
It seems today's allegations of ****** misconduct
May spring from that mind-expanding era.
The fingers are pointing back to then,
And who knows what who was doing with whom,
Listening to Purple Haze
Through clouds of smoke, shared needles, and blotter;
Bra burning, card burning, flag burning.
The things one remembers after
So many years of clearing the cobwebs.
Did I get a ***** back then and kiss a girl?
Did I invite a girl up to my room?
Did I touch a girl while dancing?
(OK. I probably snuck a ***** but hey, so did she)
I'm lucky I didn't get into politics or acting.
It turns out free love was like lunch.

I can't make love!
It's free-
To give and take.
