#tingle - Hello Poetry

I come from a place of empathy where perceptions is a mix of colors of hers, his and their perspective. I come from a place of empathy where ears are made of patience, drums sensitive to the change in wavelength, de-weaving complexity into simplicity. I come from a place of empathy where the emotions lacerating hearts – sliced, run parallel through me. You lock into my embrace, finding the comfort of compassion amongst the rusty and scraping conditions. When you project anger, fear, and angst I start dissecting your past, your rearing, justifying and understanding the origins of the hand and experiences that shaped you. You render your mind open, as I step in walk among the stars, darkness and the turbulent waves crashing within. Your emotions tingle my skin, and linger within me as I understand wor(l)d apart, developing cross-cultural understanding and objectifying subjectivity. Though I begin to understand the origins, stem of your being, swaying with your words and hazing in the paradox of other’s being. I choose to succumb to gravity, and remain sturdy on certain beliefs.

My jaw is frozen Ice and fire creep up my numb face Circling my eye with gentle hands Tingling across my stiff lips They call it 'filling,' but when I touch it It feels invisible, empty Unreceptive or responsive Numb like dead feet What a curious feeling That numb is

what to do when your body starts to tingle? take a cold shower. turn on the fan. drink some water. turn off the R&B; blow out the scented incense. look around and it will all start to make sense... " what to do when my body starts to tingle?" place a pillow between your burning thighs and remember that you are single!
