Before I begin, allow me to explain, I too loved.. once, so think of me not as some cynic- nor as a master in the ways of love- but rather as a keen observer- now, that may mean I have nothing to offer you- no insider knowledge- no secrets of love- But I do  know how to tell a true love story - Interested? Fantastic- So let’s begin, True love, if there is such a thing at all, is like the thread that makes the cloth you can’t tease it out- you can’t extract meaning- without ending up deeper in the web- and it always remains- hidden under layers - In the end, that’s all you can really say about any True love story- They don’t generalize- They don’t analyze- They arent found- They just… happen. and that’s what makes them “true.” But what is this coveted “love” - the emotion?- the act?- the mentality?- Love, is a constant state of illusionment- A collective agreement amongst humans- that it, whatever it may be,  can be treated as an excuse for recklessness, irrationality, and misplaced strife-   A quid pro quo  between two individuals- to agree that they are doing something- anything- other than mindlessly drudging through life- Now that is not to say that what love creates is pointless- I said before, I have felt the embrace of love Love festers between individuals for so long it has no option- but to mould the physical to itself- and alter our personalities- Characterized by spontaneity- by indulgence- by risk- to love is the most dangerous experience in existence- the act of being fully vulnerable with another- while promising not to hurt them the same- Love is characterized by vulnerability- and the constant fear of being hurt- So you want to know how to write a true love story? be honest- dwell not on the “romantic” blindfolds that keep us irrationally seeking our partners- dwell not on the on the memories of a love that blossomed- reveal the core of love - A true love story comes from gut instinct- A true love story, comes from experience. A true love story, if truly told, makes the stomach believe So I said I loved once, allow me to elaborate- I too have felt the “butterfly stomach” - where the insides of the lovestruck turn on their host and manifests the emotional significance of meeting “the one” I too have spent the day daydreaming... -Lost in the thought of “the one”, seeking brief breaks from reality in my mind between moments of  utter normalcy I too have melted into a puddle of emotion…. -lying next to “the one” as we slowly spill more and more of the secrets that bound us as individuals, joining a spirit much larger than ourselves- I too have felt... invincible- -to know that I’ve found something more significant than myself. Something that replaces the fear of the future.. and makes it something to look forward to. Yes, I too have fallen in love. and I did just that- I fell. ..And that is my true love story-

How to tell a *true* love story
Before I begin, allow me to explain, I too loved.. once, so think of me not as some cynic- nor as a master in the ways of love- but rather as a keen observer- now, that may mean I have nothing to offer you- no insider knowledge- no secrets of love- But I do  know how to tell a true love story - Interested?

*Wondering, if the universe flinched, when God took you away.* - dakota Will I grace your thoughts when the moment comes? Will your universe come to a complete standstill? Will you choke back your tears... Or by the buckets would they fill? This pain in my heart What is it? I know now it's love I know now I was bit... I clutch my chest and begin to think... Of the splintered shard I had failed to extract I feel subdued and ultimately shattered By the crushing bitter ripples of a broken pact I'm hurting much But strangely so... I'm beginning to savour it More than you know...

Bitter Ripples
Hark! Take heed, for this cake be both mighty and magnificent! 1.75 cups flour 2 cups white sugar 2 tsp. baking soda 1 tsp. baking powder 0.75 cups unsweetened cocoa powder 1 tsp. salt 2 eggs 1 cup (as in 8 fl.oz/250mL.) strongly brewed coffee (make more and drink it!) 1 cup buttermilk (or 1 tbs. white vinegar+1 cup milk mixed well, blah blah) 0.5 cups cocoanut oil (or 0.33 cups basicallywhatever oil), a little less if *** 1 tsp. vanilla extract OPTIONAL: 2-3 shots (60-90mL; 0.2-0.33 cups) black spiced *** (Kraken, if at all possible) I also want to experiment with whiskey/burbon.. if you try it, let me know! --Flour, sugar cocoa powder, baking soda+powder, salt mixed in one bowl -- eggs, coffee, *** buttermilk, oil, vanilla in another Slowly mix the dry into the wet until as homogenous as possible. I use an 8"x8" (20cmx20cm) pan @350F (175 C) for about 40 minutes, but I check on it at round 30 minutes because some variance may well apply. If you use olive oil, or avocado oil, or whatever other more fluid oil, I find a slightly hotter oven (375 F/190 C) can be advisable, but pay attention to your specific scenario! The worst that's happened for me is the top gets a bit crusty, but that pleasantly works with the overall moisture of the cake, especially with olive oil and the *** addition. Do the toothpick test to see if it's ready! Frosting is applicable, as well, because this Magical Cake is not horribly sweet for how horribly sweet it sure is. I usually just sprinkle some confectioner's sugar on it to make it look all fancy for my classy friends and band-mates. ENJOY! Bake responsibly, but have some fun. Also, suffer the decimals!

The Iron Horse can still saddle this Coach, Whose Extract nourishes the Children he trains: One the Golden Girl; The Other a Hodge, Transpose to the Miracle-Boy remains Two-Scores-and-Four his Dedication baits, Like Tunes based to emasculate them both Here in the Pillow-Jungle Success does wait Bending limbs into Sport; Then promotes their Growth What Circus! Said the Lame Artist envine Yet in Prayer begs him to join the Fray He looked at his Pearls; And saw that they Shine Which, suspend, trained his Boon-Dogs to obey. Hence, to Devotion his Shoes retire Partner and Career; In Big Thanks suspire.

SONNET TRIBUTE: ANDY BANKS
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is not a poem.  This is about a poem. Poems require words.  This poem does not require words. This poem requires memories' muscles. This poem requires what is called colloquially love. Learn that what we share here is not poetry. Your poetic senses that produce the words that mark you present are but surgical tools to extract, release the whole and the parts of you that help shape that single sense borning in your chest that defines you at any particular moment. Quæ est mater Laureat. She is the Mother Laureate. She is the boundary you must learn to cross to be more than a re-arranger of letters and alphabets, but a translator of the human essence and fill our veins with the a sense of awe and wonder felt when we read each other and think aloud, "yes, exactly, that was and is precisely what I was feeling." She is the glue that keeps us sticking here, sticking together, each of us sticking to it.   You do not know her?   No worries, she will find you when you least expect it, perhaps when you need it. This is not a poem.  This is a human who's a poem. Understand the difference and then you may begin a journey that has no destination other than weaving the connective tissue that makes us anticipating excited when we log on. Happy Birthday Mother Poet Laureate! I do not think I can write a better not poem for you.   Forgive me then, if going toward, I repost this every October 24th as long as the chemical composition of blood, God, spirit, logos or reason runs free within,   exiting as words encased in tears that formulate into human poetry. nattyman P.S.There are 800 poems here with Sally in the title, and least 700  are about Sally B.   If you like, please  feel to free to add yours, old or new.

I was never looking into you I was only pouring an image of myself onto your canvas Of course I didn’t know it was me looking into me this was the mirage of my desire always in the shape of a question mark and you a sweeping mystery oozing something toeing the peculiar line between *** and titanium (cold, edgy, sharp - trembling between pain and principle like blazer and tie or more like halfway-unbuttoned-shirt-and-slacks on-with-no-tie (it was like you were making an effort!)) It was *** but it also wasn’t *** (I am empty I am full) I keep building up and up and up all these images in my Mind (which never shuts up) (a never-ending narrative She spins and spins and succumbs only in those rare and passing circumstances) constructing people like buildings only the scaffolding is imaginary and when the architecture folds in on itself soulless and my beloved figurines come toppling down on me why do I still get so surprised so stung so lonely in that hollow and distant way (like your Mind is echoing in on Itself)? My Mind is like quicksand devouring streams of memory with ease forever unsatisfied and craving more of the same sharp edges and all praying for a satiation in some distant future She knows will never come Only here in this tiny universe can I spell out anything resembling rationality from the mess and junk and tangled tendrils of my Mind Only here can I extract bits and pieces of thoughts and try to puzzle them together until they make sense until I can separate “Me” from “Reality" And what doesn’t make sense what I need to understand is why I feel so beset with this heavy magnetism that overpowers me to the point of paralysis (with little to no room for breathing) and why it was you who pushed me into this feeling and you who is still pulling me along far past the threshold of my resistance and I am done and it stings

It's a humorous thing How scent can take you places Past, present and future Relive fury Remember lust Extract happiness O sweet aroma Teach me to conjure these feelings again O masculine, divine smell Covering my clothes Filling the atmosphere with mesmerizing fumes Intoxicating my mind with sensual aromatics Drink me up I will **** you in, I will take you in completely Take me to far away places, dreams and memories of soft kisses and tender hugs Of romantic dances and innocent laughter Remind me of past events once enjoyed Resurface memories far and near, quiet and loud Let me live them once more

Smell
if you wish to be a warrior prepare to be broken. if you wish to be a explorer prepare to get lost, and if you wish to be a lover prepare to be both. to be a lover meaning you possess a feeling, a spell or desire. that irresistible urge to be with someone. that heavenly union, that destiny conspires. to be a lover takes strength like a warrior. such as loving a person, even when they gave you a thousand reasons not to. to be a lover takes some exploring. a mere attachment, or infatuation. a bond or a yearning? getting lost on what loves really means. to be a lover we sometimes seek what it means when all its about is, the intermingling of 2 souls, come together to form a whole. we look to deeply to decipher love to code the way in which the caged creature works, we learn, get hurt, grow love, repeat. to ever extract its true essence is tough... Are you ready to be a lover?

ABC Poem (Medical Stuff )
I wish you were a liquid I could extract you from my veins and never have to see your pretty face again or if you were a song stuck so deeply in my head I would just have to play a different song instead maybe a scent stuck deep within my nose I'd could just go outside and smell a garden rose even a dream had deep within the night I would just wake myself up out of sheer fright but sadly you're a scar cast deep upon my heart growing deeper as we stay apart

My Heart
Life is full of mischief and artful trickery The way through never made easy for the foolhardy Misleading gestures only employed to solely distract Left up to you to decipher and hopefully extract Experiences teach much, had you only been accepting and learning That a dove could be made to appear; out of thin air, out of nothing When the road ahead offers no more than mere misdirections Altered trajectories stemming from convenient misinterpretations Your cards may have been dealt revealing astonishing outcomes "Not the hand you get but the game you play," said some Depending on deft wrists and a flick of the wand Overnight you'll wake to find that a new day had dawned Only would happen if into the wind you hadn't spat Hope would emerge like a hare out of a top hat The play on light and shadow, nothing short of dramatic You volunteer onstage, accompanied by apprehension and suspenseful music Faced with an eager audience; you realise that alone you stand Be not surprised to learn that love is life's sleight of hand...

Sleight of Hand
when the proficient poison of sure sleep bereaves us of our slow tranquillities and He without Whose favour nothing is (being of men called Love)upward doth leap from the mute hugeness of depriving deep with thunder of those hungering wings of His, into the lucent and large signories —i shall not smile,beloved;i shall not weep: when from the less-than-whiteness of thy face (whose eyes inherit vacancy)will time extract his inconsiderable doom, when these thy lips beautifully embrace nothing and when thy bashful hands assume silence beyond the mystery of rhyme

ABC Poem (Fruit and Vegetables)
If I could, I would pick up my ink pen and drown an ocean into you instead of drowning you in it. Extract these rotting feelings for the sake of your ignorance. Carve scriptures into each delicacy of your brain so you wouldn’t have to dwell in such misery every day. Wire faith to your blemished heart.   Imbue purity to your sullied soul. If I could, I would write you through all depths of insanity without any harm so that your mind no longer persists the thought of death. There was a time I thought you were dead. Only you were painted red in a black and white world. Like you have been walking barefoot on a broken road your whole life. Your demons imitate life And life imitates the demons. You are the one being tied down by invisible, nonexistent chains. So unaccepting of help that has come for you Watch   the sun touch the horizon reach the meeting of sun and ground and Find further still, The limits you would like to reach only run from you. You have such a murderous tongue for society   people. But one day I hope to see you write yourself into existence Rather than to let yourself drown in it. Why has you dying become something so habitual? Darling, death is not a friend of yours Nor are you a friend of his. But I know of your frequent dates with death Tell me Does his neck feel like happiness And do his lips relieve you of your suffocation Now are you lost? or are you found? Do you recognize the irony   Of the most terrifying things happening in the most angelic places Charm yourself upon that bridge Whose lights light up the city in golden arrays With a glazed look you’d think. In sadness seen go by You are charmed by either war or hope. These occurred robberies have taken much But they left opportunity Important people And a moon in your window A future that only you know the ending of   And a slice of the midnight sky. So it goes.

written at the Herzl Camp "A drunken man got mad at him / Because he barked in joy / He beat him and he's dying here today / Will you call the doctor please / And tell him if he comes right now / He'll save my precious doggy here he lay / Then he left the fluffy head / But his little dog was dead / Just a shiver and he slowly passed away." This extract comes from a poem called Little Buddy, and is controversial. Allegedly written at the Herzl camp there are claims it might be originated by someone else by the name of Hank Snow.

Robert Zimmerman Poetry 1957?
http://m.wikihow.com/Unhook-a-Bra Pinch the eyelets but oh so gently, To properly unhook the device to safely release paradise From it's containment chamber. This be one of many secrets to unlocking The mechanism that holds some of the happy things The human body artist conceived To perpetuate the Species. According to the internet, To extract joy to the world correctly, Depends upon both your station and your Positioning. Thus, it helps to have GPS, Which most men think is that pointy thing Between their legs, But is not.

SONNET TRIBUTE: BETH ANDERSON
There are trees, And buzzing bees, There are mountains, Between them the sun rises, Like a beautiful golden fountain, The Cool wind blows, And some prancing doe, It exists amidst a forest, There is a flowing brook, Inside the Hut is a singing cook, Cooking a tasty meal for the tribe, There is no electricity, No gas mobility, No Internet, People using fishing net, To reel in their catch, During the campfire, They have a singing Match, At night, The mosquitoes bite, But no one puts up a fight, The wolves howl in the eerie night, Howling at the moonlight, This is what other tribes pillage, And this is an extract, Of my hometown village

Village
Her cunning eyes he spied, slyly write the usual evaluation note any guy is familiar: "His eyes are right there where the difference lies grazing my curves as if it is all his; on the edge he is, I am sure his eyes are heavily laden with lust".His eyes, are they any less? "She has decided in an instance to extract a big price, need to conceal well emotions like an unfinished sculpture, till the exact time to unveil" he gets his report, immediately acts, her face falls with a thud.

At the first sight
You claim a fortress you've built of yourself To guard you from feeling anything Why the need? We've all been hurt, even us two, and yet we still let people in Let you in You say the ache creeps in anyway Until you focus on anything else and it fades You don't need to salve the ache yourself Admittedly the tendrils of feeling are seductive indeed You said yourself, hold on love Let us sit in the stars with you, and disperse the chill in your bones Take us to your cabin all alone, together We are not the malicious, mocking, twisting agony from you We will never extract from your veins The poison of your pain For us to drink later, and make ourselves feel powerful We only lift, and cradle, and cocoon We never step aside, laughing at your failure, Yourself shattered into a thousand pieces on the pavement Why the fortress? Be an openness Reveal to us, your fears, your questions, and dreams and we will give you calm Fight your demons Rejoice your triumphs Not for you, but with you Are you truly better alone?

Re: Fortress
*How much do you have to hate life, to not be scared of death?* - ThePoet I'd be lying if I said I wasn't Because I really am afraid But life has only sharp things Wonder if death is willing to trade... Longing ...a splinter Embedded in the recesses of my core Nestled deep, this tiny thorn The source of my disconcerting sore Need ...a shard That stabs itself deep Extract it I will not Think it's worth the keep Miss ...a knife With never a dull blade Stabs itself right through Pain that will never fade Want ...a syringe Injecting the good and bad Side effects loom Driving me quite mad Love ...a stake Rammed into my heart It doubles me over It rips me apart Life ...a spike Impaling without fail Siphoning my soul Through the holes in my mail These are the few sharp things that I own The only things I've learnt to savour I've nurtured them large; now fully grown Always wondered what death has got to offer...

Sharp Things
Heart of mine you ache ****** truth-teller be silent. As I lie here alone with my spirit flailing wildly normalcy and whatshouldbe hold a pillow and smother its breath. **** opressors they are everywhere they're in marriage and picketfence but some cellular drive made me leave you for them. I want you so physically and cry out in pain as my heart begs and pleads for the one that it loves. I need you you know me my mirrortwin, completely Never have I been so naked as I am beneath your gaze I look into a liquid reflection that adores me, ether, bone. I have simple words only now they squeeze out of me bloodied bullets I wince as I extract them my gutless runner's high of a promise of security wears off now and I notice and I notice and I notice the pistol lying comfortably in my own hand. Oh! my love! I feel I'm dying. You were beauty...... On the wind now the warm, bitter wind you are gone.
