sweet kiss or kissed real quick
the moment gone
sweet lips, sweet lips
the eternal remembrance
your lips your lips
such was your sweet kiss.
Reminding myself that I am not alone
in thinking there is a collective conscience
library that has been made accessible, but

to readers, only, and within that set,
to readers who read for life, to live,

letterly, let be, let see, let say, what if,

or wonder if, let us see, let us say, today

where you were when I was in process
as an explanation
of an adversarial approach, a strategy,
accessing a push that has come to shove

me into your comfort zone, to force a will,
a will submitted to that thing you profess
to know is too true to think two ways,

trick is, digesting suggested gulps taken,
earlier in our mindstreaming, thinking sure,

the good, the good
in being alive, good for nothing at any rate,

making no thing, seem likely how as spirit
feels, loosed, to seem likely why we think

we breathe, half time in, half time out,
day by day, we live and breathe, and assume
the position we were led to believe, ours
to hold as true, for the rest of ever after,

our purpose on earth, laughs in our heart,
and wipes a grin across our face,
and once more
-wordflow slows, so back up,
can occur,
yes, imagine the loss,
back up, clogs old reasons
arterial distinctions excused
as essential legacy worth sets
where your treasure lay unseen…

earnest as any disguised gay Nineties
entertainer on the society pages,
lo, long after Turing was made example of…
- rude gay abandonment, so sad, liar
dies to convince some school board,
we all make up minds, we all may let such be,

scriptural, let it be written, thus it becomes,
for those who know it, this is it, do as we say,
or die, as seen when tyrants are dramatized,
on TV for all to watch, minimum reading cost,
to bring the masses together in one mindframe,
withing our gestalt Earth earth mindshare,
through wishable otherwise moments
we make bend with a laughing what,
twist, and spin, and twist and spin, thinking
ifery was were ours, see, we agree and think
a free minute,
and let it fly, to become another just
in time right move, made with no prejudicial
estimation of the attention cost needed to use

a free minute.
Keep it, in the long run, any free minute seems eternal.
but I am old enough now
to have my fears comfort me;
and have the things I love
chain me in fear -
Warm heat with a gentle breeze
Quiet cloudy afternoon, calming
                    Tranquility
Rainstorm forming , thoughts wandering
Entertain one self,  ponder the weather
Feel the heat , reveal yourself
Each day is full of surprises
Looking back  wondering
Why we never met again
Across oceans, across mountains

Do you wonder too?

I’m staying true to myself
Where ever you are.
I want you to know
Your in my mind

Looking back, wondering
Looking back , wondering
Do you wonder too ?

I’ve been waiting for news
          About you
You will always be in my heart
    No matter what

Years gone by
Tears fall down
Years gone

A thousand miles apart
        Not one word
It tears me up, it tears me up
I don’t know why you vanished
A thousand unanswered questions
Running through my mind

I will smile at the good times
         Friendship and laughter
A thousand miles apart
A thousand miles apart

Looking back, looking back
Years gone by
Thinking of the good times
Friendship and laughter
I will smile for the good times
Love ya,,,,,,,

saying nothing sometimes says it all as all know
silence can be an education a world wide contribution
holding your tongue, which is a strange expression,
but practising it now and again can make all the difference
a helping hand to all and sundry in a world of noise.
What have I gained?
What have I tossed?
What has been the actual cost?
All of this pain
A heart of frost
None of it worth what has been lost

we're wading through water
climbing up trees
weaving through branches
and falling like leaves

you asked me if I've ever loved
oh, if you only knew
I feel it all over again
each time I look at you

there's no reason to wonder
"is anything meant to be?"
when we're way too high,
just hold me tight
and we'll fall just like leaves
