Over a period of time difference of opinion leads to debate following which mutual understanding might take place. Somewhere down the line, something might click, then signs of mutual understanding will be there in offing. Mutual understanding will bring the much needed change, a change that's desired, since it also fulfills the need of hour. If mutual understanding takes place, then nothing like that since it moves in the direction of drawing a line of conclusion, which is the only reason because of which the debate commenced. If mutual understanding is still a viable option, yet far away, then it’s time to keep negotiation apart and away from been a part of the debate. Finally difference of opinion can lead to something positive and healthy, if the debate that is ensued following a difference of opinion is in the right direction, in right spirit, focus remaining on point of concern, substance with regards to what’s going on in mind is not disturbed in anyway, most importantly the debate is held on proper grounds. Difference of opinion is also a sign for something constructive, if the mind is determined to make sure that the odds which are going to come along the way will not only be handled and tackled, but also taken out and taken away from the way of getting things done. Finally it’s difference of opinion that makes team work interesting, if it is taken in the right spirit at the given moment in time.

Difference of opinion is part of teamwork
My Heart and Mind had a discussion one day, About a man that they both knew quite well. The heated discussion continued for hours, Both with arguments meant to compel. A debate ensued between the two, With each taking a different perspective. The Heart believed the man to be true, And the Mind thought he was deceptive. Heart started the discussion with an obvious point, "He is sweet and gentle like no man before." Mind responded smugly, "That's great in the moment but how does he act after she's walked out the door?" Heart countered, already knowing the point being made. "Sure, he may not be able to write or call; He is busy with constant demands of his time. What he feels in his heart matters most of all." "I disagree," and Mind continued to say, "Actions mean far more than words alone. It is when words and actions are considered together that a man's true feelings are shown." "He has to compartmentalize to get through the day." Heart continued to defend his intentions, When they are together his feelings are real, but her insecurities span many dimensions." "It's funny you would mention compartmentalizing. Apparently your memory isn't as sharp as mine, He was once quoted as saying this was not his strength, proof that his statements don't always align." "You are cynical, suspicious and guarded." Heart was clearly tired of this dispute, "Those traits are clouding your judgement. He is genuine and telling the truth." "I think you are overlooking the obvious but I'll relax and stop doubting his intentions if he makes an effort to send a simple sign." Heart and Mind both wanting to prove their point and have the bragging rights of superiority. Mind sure that the man would disappoint her; Heart confident in his genuine sincerity. Both waited patiently for some type of gesture, Something to demonstrate that he really does care. Heart began to worry and whispered to herself, "Stay calm and trust that it's not just another affair." Patience prevailed and an email arrived, just as Heart had hoped and prayed. Mind, although disappointed by being proved wrong, was relieved and no longer afraid. Trust and calm filled her spirit when thinking of him, but it was both that won in the end. Maybe they were more than temporary lovers and could also be permanent friends.

I wish me invisible I want to disappear I am but a damsel Parading in knight's gear I want to be the unknown I need to be again a stranger I wish my secrets not shown Back to a time when it was clearer I wish to be a zephyr I want to be felt not seen I need to be less of the liar At least lesser than I have been I crave the comfort of solitude I long for the absence of physical contact I miss the tears that once had ensued Somehow then I was more intact I want to be an undetermined star I need to be unnamed in an uncharted galaxy I wish to retreat behind my avatar So you won't see the real me I wish me invisible I want to be protected by ambiguity I need to disappear from this debacle Into the welcoming arms of anonymity

Anonymity
Dimension beginning of vile ****** exposed, And the Emperor has no clothes, While helplessly strut a mighty walk without a shame. Course of history repeating itself, Like the flow of water meeting in the river of streams, But recycle through the clouds and back to the ground it flows. Are we so blinded by the glimmer of the mirage of oasis in the desert, We toast with sands of dune to quench our thirst of our plight, And all is but a fickling light ducktaped by words of unintelligible muddled murmur? This is truly the flawed design of our time, When we no longer promote arts and crafts of philosophies, And religious cults of zealots condemned the science and Academia by berating it's achievement. Likes of ancient times of Agora and the height of it's human enlightenment, There are forces of deconstruction of society of choas ensued by hateful fear mongers, And systematic inward of national fevor of berserkers leveling progress. Maybe another dark age is inevitable, But little seed of hope I feel tangible, And sometimes event maybe a phoenix.

"'scuse me you speak Russian?"
*It was then that the universe decided to play Out a sequence of events that would lead to this day She conspired with the sun     with the earth and the moon With the rest of the cosmos     to create enough room For elegant curiosity to bloom Opportunity presented herself to his door She gestured,   and smiled,    And said "wait no more" He knew in an instant it was time to act, Because chances are few, such a plain simple fact. And so our protagonist seized that one chance, For his soul to experience a new kind of dance.   It was all for a girl,   curiosity,   what if? She moved with such grace, she sparked up a spliff In the garden of dreams,      bathed in glorious sunlight Her hair, face and smile      it all felt so right And watching her glow and feeling her lust, He knew it was time,    he knew that he must. He leaned in closer for a taste of her lips, She turned in towards him,     she shuffled her hips And then when at last they shared that first kiss, His soul was ignited and smothered in bliss. And that was the moment that everything changed, A shift in perspective, a life re-arranged. For what then ensued through that day and that night, Was nothing short or pure cosmic delight. Moments come and moments go Memories fade over time's forward flow But the feelings remain, they are timeless and true And no-one and nothing can take them from you. So if you're attentive to universe's song,    and seize opportunity, you can never go wrong. For you might one day find where you truly belong*

The sensual curved line on the bed perfect. The eyes: burning, red, leaking for reason unknown. Private room for me and you. Darkness quenching the need to hide the lustrous actions ensued. Accept your fate, useless strumpet, unrivaled ***** Your garden grows quickly out of control. Weeds in your rose bush, fence weighed down by inherent overgrowth of emotion: fervor, passion. A kiss. The last sweetness of your lips that will ever be given or gotten. Death. A sweet relief for the world from you, Desdemona.

Smothered With Love
Since time unknown I wanted a mutt No Lego, No Hershey , would make me stop A golden lab, only, could break the rut Which i could feed and sit atop. Mother worried for the allergies and the fleas, the constant bark, dirt and spit. I swore to keep him up in trees and silent like a lonely pit. We got a pup and named it Edison, he did not explicitly, discover electric light. All he had was poo and medicine No wonder his tummy was never right. Every time a **** he let away With each paw he dug to dig. At midnight as others lay He ate on like a pig. One night a robber, dull and round, hauled himself across the yard; And then onto some furry ground, where the cur lay, his fat splayed, somehow, somewhat, on guard. A brawl ensued, boy, there was blood! the thief bit him and he bit back. Now, i have two graves in the mud, of Edison and of Jack.

Edison
The battle ensued Between combatants heart and mind As loneliness whispered softly Of tenderness In cooing song and rhyme The brain issued a stern warning Of heartache and the ache of sorrow The turmoil of the soul And the price The wrath of storms coming Love ignored words of caution With little thought of consequence Forging fearlessly and foolishly ahead Igniting a small spark Accompanied smoke trails in the night Long ago thought dead Glowing orange blue flickering embers Soon a smoldering burning fire Did awaken from memories long sleep The emotion Desire This poem is copyrighted and stored in author base.

Desire
Things grew dry Desert ensued And I wanted an oasis, Pleasure of sitting By a pool In the arid air. It was comfortable enough To keep on, Legs in rhythm But The exhausting heat And friction Between Became too much and You stopped to rest. And soon blood lept From my body And muscles felt sore. I collapsed in the sand. And you hugged me anyway.

Meteors and Comets
Caged in a prison, high on a hill, actions ensued but didn’t quite fit the bill Words of not-always transformed promises to forever, Side by side, naught to hide, despite the cloudy weather A friend, a rock, a ship almost wrecked was looking to dock Alone in the harbour, under the moonlight, Ashamed, The half-wreck shone bright for what it was famed. Tough stains were covered, remains left undiscovered to be smothered by another Heart still full of what was before, keen, loveful pursuers already knocking at the door Cabin wide open: “Ahoy mateys! Ahoy!” She soon set sail with the innocent boy. Tides were rolling on peacefully by, some of them were low tides but mainly they were high, When in need there was a shoulder upon which to cry And the girl thought the boy would help her get by. Way out at sea on a tropical isle the boy showed the girl daemons not seen in a while Opened her up and dove right in, illustrated the flaws of reacting to whims Open Broken Alone at sea, the boy turned his back as she fell to her knees Floundering, drowning, thrashing in the waves The girl succumbed to what her daemon craves Underwater tears remain unobserved A not-so-sly Fox spoke of acts undeserved An unsure girl, curled up, abashed Covered up the act and watched her daemon be tamed A ship in the darkness, a ship under the stars Saved the girl and craved the girl and hoped she knew right And Oh! How she flourished in this dependable new light “Love and peace, me mateys!”: a new reason to fight The boy on his island, soon to return, Will see that the shipwreck upon which they met, though not yet quite perfect Trawls the coast to find an isle of its own And though different to first-envisaged, Bristol shall be its home.

I don't speak spaceman she said with a grin. When into the craft she went. Was parked on the grass at the rear of her tent. There met an alien ugly as sin. Invited her in to join him for gin. Or maybe a game of rummy. Neither one could understand. Non-verbal communication ensued. They had a hug and laid on the rug. When sipping their gin. The two of them, The alien invader, ugly as sin. And maiden fair who chucked her hand in. By ladylivvi1 © 2014 ladylivvi1 (All rights reserved)

Spaceman!
Often times a question regarding death, "what happens, where do you go?" I'd say it's neutral, no ringing ears, nothing at all. Though I've grown up neck deep in the tired and frightening atmosphere of death, nights spent as a child contemplating my own existence, I had learned to accept it at a fairly young age This question no longer bothers me Before I walked, before I talked genuinely, I was a million questions, a million ideas all kept under lock And the way I walked and talked was not my own And now, some days they'll call me a "man", but what I am is a hybrid of all of these thoughts bright and faded colors, painted fingers and toes, distorted and vulnerable And that sudden burst of consciousness at birth was the same I'd come to know in that moment, at the bottom with the fishes, counting pictures and having visions with my last bit of oxygen. Mermaids, gold glitter, and snakes in the water. Never had I known such a gentle touch, among some collapsed lakeside cottage. And that is why I am no longer afraid of death, because to cease to exist is not any kind of experience. And I will always remember, the sudden burst of consciousness just before the renaissance that ensued from your touch. And I will not wait And I will sing in a violently feminine fashion before the day my lung collapses

On The Day My Lung Collapses II
Her timid, inexperienced hands Young, unsure and insecure Didn't understand The power in her touch soothed his soul. She had no idea she was the chosen one As an evolved woman in her 40s She now understands that Her hands felt like heaters when they touched his soul. Penetrating his skin Skin smooth like silk Passion hot like fire The majestic curve of her hips The fullness of her ******* The softness of her lips Had a hypnotic effect Shaking this very powerful man To his very core. To see your soul's mirror reflection In another being Was completely unnerving The vicious battle of wills and ego That later ensued Was simply a defense mechanism For the both of them This level of intimacy Felt like a personal invasion What felt like an attempt Of mind and body control Or strategic manipulation Was truly the essence Of old familiar souls Reconnecting with each other This unbridled passion Was electrifying Every nerve was a live wire Intensity so strong it was alarming ******** full body electrocutions Powerfully addictive Never underestimate the significance Of the soul tie For as ancient energies exchange Souls intertwine This is an unbreakable bond Stronger than betrayal, conflict or estrangement Its unforgettable Holding this queen to your chest Without uttering a single word She was "home" Only the two of you share this special space With the ability to speak to each others thoughts And feel the others' soul cries You are deeply connected You are not alone So in the next lifetime Be brave enough To trust each other. Respect this bond as something far more than simple lust May we seize the opportunity And learn, build and grow together May next journey not be so lonely Marred with confusion, insecurities Ego and self doubt May we find comfort In our shared heartache Of the loss of our earthly mothers We will forever be connected spiritually Throughout the passage of time And the rest of eternity Until we meet again. © 2017

Spanish Guitars A few years ago, in 2011, I went to a concert of young classical guitarists.  Just before or after, I don't recall, I saw an exhibition of Picasso's guitars at the Museum of Modern Art in NYC (http://www.moma.org/visit/calendar/exhibitions/1101). This poem ensued.  This is one of the lost poems I mentioned, recently rediscovered on an archaeological dig. Spanish Guitars two weeks pass. I have seen two guitars one of wood, one of sheet metal. both were alive, both were inanimate both birthed for display, useful for granting pleasure and heating up le jus d'creation products of a tradesman's craft, animated to pierce my brain and pleasure me with the realization that when you see what I see When you, you hear, What I see we all perforce speak but one language, an alphabet of music, art and love A young, oh so most beautiful Croat guitarist girl, Ana, coaxes an urgency from her love, the blonde wood, she takes Piazzola's notes, as if they were Picasso's thoughts and set them within so days later, the resonance plucks at my temples Picasso, like a little boy, collects collaged bits and pieces of life's stuff most ordinary, postage stamps, playing cards, wallpaper, pieces of cardboard, cutouts from Le Journal, and with fingers delicate sticks and glues discrete notes, individually nothing but pieces of this and that, bits and bobs superimposed on faux woodwork, presenting an instrument tooled to conjures up a milonga^, the sounds of angels dying, a fandango of trembling tones a sonnet of sounds, celebrating human touch upon animal, strings taut, feasts both, a banquet, a  triomphe of sounds that tutors my senses to hear sheet metal guitars imprisoned in museum glass gush sounds of parallel lines and delicate contrasts, A duet of animate, inanimate Virtuosity All is clarified. One language. Many dialects. Both, Spanish guitars. ^ a milonga has many meanings, but here, refers to a Argentine tango dance party

I wish you had died on that day then maybe I'd only face grief and not the betrayal of that double-edged sword you jabbed into my back. you said that you also wanted to die on that day then maybe you couldn't have to face the stress of killing me, and the depressing aftermath of which you ensued on yourself.

Apathy
Hips hunkered, rise to dapple-blue-toned dusty seat Flush arch cheeky blush, excitement Droll eye-glazing blue pupil toned in sleepy drug haze Wind whipping wild air rushing through tempered glass Wubing whoosh of wheeled blacktop pavement Colored in eerie sunshade yellow Lined, darting-flash gold white boundary crossing Tight knuckles, two hand hold Blinking brown doe-eyed drowsy heavy lidded Lolling head knocked back, head bash rested caressing faux blue Ploom of dust Dry-mouth open to catching fly’s Or what’s left of dank-infused air Quiet stillness Blond hair crawling in busy wind, Equally as gone Thumping, jolting-momentum White line boundary lost, wheels ended grass Ditching down, dirt slid slide Floating weightless suspended-nightmare phase Snapping, Awake! Awake! Screaming slotted terrified, Panic! Painful-heart-wrecking rob breath Nose dive, mounded metal drive inching closer Hairs-breath away Afraid, screaming ****** ****** inside sealed lips Brown eyes; lid white Hands upon steering slack, loose light Asleep, peaceful in calamity Unnatural shake and tumble Nail dug bleeding ache Skidding gravel, tree lined doom A god not believed in a prayer ensued Shaking, the calm unglued “Baby, wake I beg you!” Brown quick electric wide Screaming, Screaming “Oh my God! Why!” Swerve snake skin peelout Black lane orange in night An almost death.

Accidental Journey
hand in hand and two bright lights moving through the calm night leaves lit by the moon hoping to find water soon an eerie calm loosely clasped palms a sudden hesitation and running imaginations whispering with you over a noise or two a light disappeared slight unacknowledged fear ****** rising emotions heightening a disturbance in the leaves a tighter hold, a startled scream you called my name two large ears hopped away laughter ensued steps continued the destination seen piece by piece place to rest and regain peace a rushing water found feet slowly moving with arms around to an unheard beat water and rock beneath our feet under the flecks of stars through trees perfect night with you next to me

a night hike
Wave after wave Of chilly fresh air Washes over me, Slathering me Smothering me In your intoxicating natural perfume, Wafting in from the door you just waltzed through. Confident, Assured, You silently entice me; Quietly luring me into the spider's web To devour me mercilessly , A wiling sacrifice to the hedonist gods. Wrapped in your firm embrace, I melt, Overcome with the sensations of ecstasy and elation, As your warm fingers wind through my hair, Pulling - tugging- Bending me to the passions of the moment, Where I exhale my simple reality, And sink deeper into the fantasy that you lend me; A dark and sumptuous world Full Of bare skin glistening in moonlight- Writhing, And shining In our our titanic efforts to go to new places, To attain new highs. Melding- We drink in the sultry air As if it were the wine of the heavens, Each breath, a prayer to a distant god Each sigh, an escaping gasp of praise to the distant stars, Bestowing their blessing upon our arching forms. A place of exquisite torture Where we waver in wanton abandon, Unaware of And without care for the fleeting worlds around us. We exist, In bliss, In utter ecstatic pleasure, Making monuments meant to be remembered And worshipped; And as our sweet comedown lays us prone, Gasping Struggling to make sense of the sensual chaos That just ensued With blank minds that threaten to shut down all together My fingers hold yours, Locked in And intertwined with a strong link- Like a life raft To carry me over these waves of bliss.

Melding- We drink in the sultry air As if it were the wine of the heavens, Each breath, a prayer to a distant god Each sigh, an escaping gasp of praise to the distant stars, Bestowing their blessing upon our arching forms. A place of exquisite torture Where we waver in wanton abandon, Unaware of And without care for the fleeting worlds around us. We exist, In bliss, In utter ecstatic pleasure, Making monuments meant to be remembered And worshipped; And as our sweet comedown lays us prone, Gasping Struggling to make sense of the sensual chaos That just ensued With blank minds that threaten to shut down all together My fingers hold yours, Locked in And intertwined with a strong link- Like a life raft To carry me over these waves of bliss.

Darkness leaped in, smothered my psyche. Led me down a hall, into the cinema I went, not willing. A theatrical presentation, an outcry ensued. Perception forever altered. A mind completely new.   My ideals, my dreams, dissipating with the ending scene. Go forth I did, dashing into the illuminating beam. A challenge of realization, no immediate hesitation. Advancement granted, the understanding, of another dimension.   Speechless, words cannot explain. Abandoned, with nothing left. An experience to entertain, while under the dancing rain, Vanity's Game.

Vanity's Game
I recently got into a little kundalini yoga and joined the Zen group on Facebook, and it was like being plugged into an electric socket. I didn't sing the body electric, I freaked out. Panic, anxiety, and mania ensued. This **** can be dangerous. I saw my doctor and he gave me more medicine. Now, I'm fine. Whew.

I'm Scared Shitless Of The Body/Mind Electric
Fortunately you are not my muse I've worn out muses by the dozens cast them aside like chaff and cherished the sorrow that ensued Sadness was my calling card my tragic handshake a testament to a life gone wrong Age improved me I survived the madness came back to life gasping for air And so to your door to spin the wheel of language to glory in its intricacy Two poets alive in the same century two restless souls under one uneasy roof We will survive our families yet raise a toast when the day comes to the dear and thankfully departed We'll leave poetry like confetti in our wake and touch the holy stone once or twice yet in our lives I pray it will be so.

Not My Muse
'So It Begins...' once upon a time there was a girl who always ran around in circles figuratively, of course not literally, because if she was literally always running in circles, she'd pretty soon be dead but that's neither here nor there. back to the girl she had no idea that she did this but everyone around and about was painfully aware of her issues she was convinced that she was always coming up with new and exciting ideas when really she just spent all her time recycling her own idiocy and she became increasingly irate as all the things that she kept around even though she would never admit that she intentionally kept them around started to seem wrong or used or just completely foreign until a magic prince with a magic want who totally dug the fact that this chick was entirely self obsessed and weird and pretty much certifiable snuck in the middle of the night and robbed the ***** blind however because the guy took all her worthless pointless and in the end meaningless baggage away with him she replaced her former obsessions with stalking him and he became her magic want which he severely regretted soon enough because with her circular habits her stalking efforts were not unlike being relentlessly pursued by a small angry but not entirely unaffectionate chihuahua he fully intended for her to stalk him from the beginning but unfortunately as he had been raised in a pseudo-feministic yet highly romanticized society he was under the false impression that once this chick started pursuing him she would give in to her basest wants and deep seated but repressed desires that every girl has but doesn't admit to ending up with a magic prince he was wrong there was no fairytale and once she caught up with him the relationship that ensued became a vicious cycle of marriage, divorce, and remarriage because he had been ****** in to her circularity. the end
