we say
we create our experience
so now
take a chance
raise the big dream out of hiding
nourish well with expectant desire
let it grow
transforming
beyond known imagining
what we did not see
was ours all along
We only recognize that which we conceive and believe

I shared a dream
it was not met
did not convey
the magic*
   it means no more than this:
  a moment's disappointment

remotion

cycling and recycling
devotion to remotion
a spiral past  a comfort blast
well known save our rewriting
yet here we tumble on
to spiral all unknown
  fresh emotions rising
  potent and enlivening
Thanks to Maria, for permission to use this word "remotion", from her poem Intervening Space.

greet
life
pulsing  
deep in wounds
when scars reopen raw
resist reflexive closure
with unflinching presence
as portal beacons timely truth

You stand before the cutting board,
excited appetite
juices flowing in your mouth
and in the tender meat.
Hungry man, do turn your gaze
Devour me too !
Edited repost,from Sept,12.   Just to add some balance or diversion to the vegan/carnivore theme.

No slur, hear the pride
I was Mother Warrior
fighting for my charge, my child.
If I had not so much to learn,
the path would have been other
than playground of victory and loss.
Adult now, evolving still
aging scars and complex psyche
stories of bright riches savored
but do those boots still have a use ?

as I dance

must conjure as I dance
gently on clear flexing line
that step by step appears
from current root of choice
  believing it supports my mass
imbalanced it may be with doubt
that's cast away yet grasped again
forever seeking moving balance
this ~ now ~ attend
or abandon to free fall

denied
is not contained
hungry heat sparking fires

sharing feelings long withheld
promised open space*
but now
He sleeps
I wait
