"And the older I get, the more I'm sure That more by itself never was a cure Some days I've got nothing to show for except Walking the dog and walking the floor" Mary Chapin Carpenter <><><> *it's been twenty years plus who can remember exact, the last time I had a full-time four-legged companion to share my bed, greet my head with wagging tail, and joy incessantly, overflowing and drowning me with face lickings and hugs of a topsy turvy twisty body, and smiles and curdling yowls of deep throated cries of obvious joy and the first thing I'll do when the nectar of next life's staging begins to commence will be me to get such a dog as heretofore I remember as an unadulterated purest joy, I'll still walk the floor, long walks, yup, outdoors, early morn, and late afternoon day settling setting endings, dog and me, freshly bathed, settling in to watch some British crime and ****** mysteries sleuthed and solved by folks I'll never meet, but whose company enjoyed over the distance of an atlantic sea and about seven feet, and maybe dog  curls up next to me, by my pillowed head, or between my happy to snuggle legs, don't matter much, dog & me, will discuss an alternating rotation satisfying our mutuality, and even when I  still walk the floor, which be a task for evermore, he can walk beside me if he chooses, cause choice is what's it all about* with a true companion nml

It is Whatever you want it to be. How you perceive is your perception, Your perspective is not deception -But why are we so reluctant to make use of affection? The detection of attraction exhibits bits of satisfaction That neither of us can speak of. If push comes to shove, Don't make me make you fall in love. If I can't have your body I don't want no body. Celibacy. It will be a delicacy to insituate the thoughts that insituate your time I'll obituate your loss And re-birth worth in your mind- The situation Is a mind **** manipulation. I will eliminate the No And inseminate the Yes Undressed across your expression The progression Of ********** The contents of your mind until you bare a confessional corruption For when mutuality is in play; Manipulation is just seduction.

Delicacies
. I'm so proud ! :::: Now here's how it came down // A whole lotta girls at our high school Come up with a new *** craze Literally Getting ******  up the *** by a billy goat ! In and of itself This is hardly noteworthy But (!) They took it too a new level by filming themselves Doing it While also ************ with one hand And jiggling their **** with the other And basically turning it into A sort of ***** dance competition. // Now this caught on real big And the high schools in the area each got Together competitive teams And then a city wide league Where the teams are judged on form And Creativity And synchronization of ******* And mutuality of masturbatory modalities ( like oral *** ) // It is a huge money maker for the schools // Drawing 1000 of fans Who basically **** and **** off all night In the stands ! //    At first the Christians of the town Objected But Eventually it proved to be that Not having to pay taxes is a higher CHRISTIAN precept Than ****** purity ! // Everyone here is having a good time and maybe some of your towns Might get something going // Some schools I know of Are trying to include Cutting oneself and menstrual blood Into the completion Hopefully new ideas will occur And the sport will grow .

Oh' if I could speak the language of his atraction With a generosity of exchange in bounteous metaphors Yes and let him be the quality of my oppression For there is a torture about my words when put to voice They search for plausible reasons as is such cannot be found And yet I have a trouble governing my generous impulses Oh' the inaudible corruption that is my mind, hoping, wishing Begging for a prosperity of possibilities that will vanquish tears That I with moral perspectives should bind a mutuality between us Invalidating my inadequacies thus find a resolution not in artiface But in a charmed and beautiful way that shall be the essence of love Without a prodigality of thought, but each for each, in solemnity of kiss

soliciting solitude attitude
Our immediate discomfort always feels so wrong Aren’t we all meant to get along? It starts as simply as the set of their jaw Before long it’s their toneless guffaw Then their mere presence becomes an intense irritant And you fight to suppress your instinct to be militant Forget the initial dislike that began to percolate Now you fight for control as you hyperventilate Digging deep for composure you seek compromise But then you recognise the mutuality of warrior steel in their eyes You know they know What to do; step away or let it be so?

I REALLY DISLIKE YOU
~for my dear, dear friend, T.R. who tills the soil of Jordan’s Garden, from which life springs eternal <> see your words, sent direct to my ears and all our mutuality of senses, fingertips tasting the soil, the moisture, the granularity, the chemical composition and the color, always the colors… our gardens are our children, each similar but always, unique, altogether different, altogether similar how I love the how-work of it;  how the soil, you, suckle each other with nutrients of tears, Georgia heat, outcomes of the summer produce(s), a refresher course of memories, of frustrated endlessness we see heaven only by looking down, you, me, on our hand and knee, touching each plant by hand as if soft stroking a cheek of our children in some spots, the ground unyielding, keeping its riches stored for another day, only then, when it wills, offer up its specialty - a surprise, a wind-blown in, seed sprouting it so many different ways, the work gets harder, and yet, more tender, more desirable and we do not wonder on it for this the way, of planting, and planning human desires, tempered by elements over which we relinquish a sense of control, yet forever knowing, happily, renewal~marked by the forever and ever on seasonality of a rebirthing garden that sustains us 6/25/23

“Every garden, soil & climate are so different, so human”
Heartfelt confessions With jovial eyes of sincerity Blossoming affection With pure and Delicate mutuality It was sunrise. It started blooming Like redolent flowers in springtime. Sensible to meaningless Talks in daytime Secrets unraveled Under the ineffable beauty Of the cloudy sky Unblemished hearts Had grown to love As innocent as The newborn child. Nearly twilight Lovers in paradise Exchanging thoughts Priceless stories Hands intertwined Creating future Dreams, plans. Thinking, forever Is in their hands. The night of moonless sky Was the time to bid goodbye Forever is over now Castle of promises somehow Turned ashen gray Dust and sand All blinding the eyes As one heart escaped And the other remained All shattered and pulverized A quiet midnight Nothing but a silent cry Resonates the room Recollecting Ephemeral moments Indelible memories Both ravaging The soul and heart Hopeful for A kind of dementia To erase all The wounds and scars It's clear dawn now A curve in the lips Hiding , enduring The pang of boundless ache Wishful of the Forthcoming sunrise To bring about The celestial fate A Better tomorrow, A beautiful aftermath Of the twisted Playful life

A Bittersweet Happenstance
friends of friends and an **** of mutuality every one ripe for the ******* until we greedily eat our own tails I find myself running low on chemistry with so little reaction left inside of me the water around the plug hole no longer spins, it only falls architectural wounds cannot heal beneath this razor’s murderous haste while the cognisant weak and a capella apes deform the silent comedy of a shared space once straight tempers and scorpion kindness highball an unhappy taste, leaving who to speak for the ordinary host? the functionaries’ short practice infects the martyr’s hurried hair between the principal route and the settling irons

mutuality
To this life, replete in unconnected fragments, you are glue, bonding disjointed existence, exhalting impassioned communication, raising love beyond visible heights. There are no sounds without receiver; what good are nimble thoughts, without the same --- a lover with whom to share? Every separation is a link, making closer the rendezvous. Every revelation a mortar, cementing admiration in opposites. I need to know the unknowable you, dissimilar as we are, routinely disagreeing, reinforcing our mutuality. O delicious paradox, delight me, in the not knowing in the riddles of relationships. We both appreciate Carroll's Rules of Jam --- *Jam tomorrow or jam yesterday, but never jam today.* My trusted ally, who but we, shall prevail against such logic? Let's share *six impossible beliefs before breakfast.*

A Rolling Stone Sings to Mother Teresa
Once upon a time, on a site far far away, I would post and not a soul would comment, let alone read... Minor poet, I am not even, but odd. A truth that slaps me unto tears. I seek your admiration, admonish your failure to admonish me, fail me unto tears. Your academic hyper-pretensions gods of overlording silence, sentence condemnations of the meagerness of mine deaf, weary-worn entreaties. Your ignorance and the vanity of my weaknesses, pencil point punctuate my brain, holes filling up with the approbation of silence. Tender unto me the Onomatopoeia of a concerto of boos, barrels of bitter alliteratives regretful rainwater, send me curses of future inspiration. immoderate me re my mediocrity! Try try again, to charm thine eyes, populate your face with grimaced tears, penetrate our mutuality with uncommon verse, pricking the winter frosted windows of a enmity and a common enemy. Another day of self-persauding, un-succeeding to accept that successive minor failures, are undeniably, a success of sorts, in a minor way. A play on words, as y'all play me. Mr. Adminstrator, answer me! Are we not all prisoners of Poetry?

“*You are so kind.   Thank you with all the resolve in my heart.”* J.V. <> A thank you note, for a simple shining-of-light, stuns me into inspiration, deep chested thrombosis consternations and calculations, palpitations of the boom-boom variety, signaling the onset of  intracranial contractions of a new birth~poem aborning… who of us these days, speaks of the resolve in our hearts? who of us free confesses deep natured thanks, it is almost too old fashioned. it is powerful. it is a thanks that powers the wattage sufficiency to light up a city entire, and even though inward focused, it yet is shedding Moses-like light beams heavenward, I wrack my heart to even comprehend, that simplest of actions reciprocal: 1/Thank You can it, (it can!) steel the heart, give its truthfulness a special power, and more than resolve, even solves our equation solution so elegantly is the endless searching for the right way to give thanks, to receive thanks, it is a mutual gifting, for our mutuality is of two hearts, echoing the words of all legislative bodies: ”Be it Resolved” what is this resolution then? the consummate of English words with such a variety of shadings, requiring a declarative, not a narrative, consummation be it resolved, that two resolute hearts shall not depart this Earth before their arms interlocute an embrace, the shadows of their eyes interlock, casting away interfering long distances, a single atmosphere shall be tasted, inhaled, by their combinatory sensories then and only then: their resolve tested and surpassed will their poem commencé et terminé, begun and completed The Emotion is Carried <<>> “*The gender-neutral name Jamadhi comes from Arabic origins, meaning “beauty.” When thinking about all the beautiful things in the world, your little one, with their kind demeanor and bright smile, no doubt springs to mind! But a name simply meaning “beauty” doesn’t only refer to their appearance. This name is a reflection of their beautiful little soul, too, on a journey through this world. Baby Jamadhi could be a gentle soul or the fiercest of little childon the playground, but no matter what, a name meaning “beauty” will always ring true.”

“*You are so kind.   Thank you with all the resolve in my heart.”* J.V. <> A thank you note, for a simple shining-of-light, stuns me into inspiration, deep chested thrombosis consternations and calculations, palpitations of the boom-boom variety, signaling the onset of  intracranial contractions of a new birth~poem aborning… who of us these days, speaks of the resolve in our hearts? who of us free confesses deep natured thanks, it is almost too old fashioned. it is powerful. it is a thanks that powers the wattage sufficiency to light up a city entire, and even though inward focused, it yet is shedding Moses-like light beams heavenward, I wrack my heart to even comprehend, that simplest of actions reciprocal: 1/Thank You can it, (it can!) steel the heart, give its truthfulness a special power, and more than resolve, even solves our equation solution so elegantly is the endless searching for the right way to give thanks, to receive thanks, it is a mutual gifting, for our mutuality is of two hearts, echoing the words of all legislative bodies: ”Be it Resolved” what is this resolution then? the consummate of English words with such a variety of shadings, requiring a declarative, not a narrative, consummation be it resolved, that two resolute hearts shall not depart this Earth before their arms interlocute an embrace, the shadows of their eyes interlock, casting away interfering long distances, a single atmosphere shall be tasted, inhaled, by their combinatory sensories then and only then: their resolve tested and surpassed will their poem commencé et terminé, begun and completed The Emotion is Carried <<>> “*The gender-neutral name Jamadhi comes from Arabic origins, meaning “beauty.” When thinking about all the beautiful things in the world, your little one, with their kind demeanor and bright smile, no doubt springs to mind! But a name simply meaning “beauty” doesn’t only refer to their appearance. This name is a reflection of their beautiful little soul, too, on a journey through this world.

losing you and it's effortless
Climbing—it’s a calling: everyone’s calling! The climber climbs on, on and on, perpetually; The ladder dictates, and the climber climbs; Fate! No discretion! And no choice to make! The ladder is to the climber, climber to the ladder; Mutuality: Each fulfilling the role of the other. The ladder knows not why the climber climbs, And the climber knows not why the ladder dictates. The climber reaches the top, and then, what next? Whether to descend, or jump down, or take wing? Dread-apprehension- trepidation- distress! It conquers the climber, then the fall! Defeat! But I climb on, both in rise and in fall alike; Path clear, vision fixed, destination well-defined; Clouds, ether, blaze, radiance, doorway, chorus, Throne, corona, nimbus, glory-bedazzling! Beauty is forever Truth, and truth forever Beauty!

Mutuality of Follow: Suddenly, I will know you
Last night I melted into you - Didn't I? It felt like an eternity It felt like a river flowing Into an intense tranquility Uncertainty tries to unhing my sanity But I know what I know To be true I flowed into you Until we became one And for once - I didn't feel a lone Because I knew - I knew this is where I belonged. -

Mutuality of Being
Glint Reflecting mirrors, Each leaf glints, An illuminated individual In a stadium pool of Waving faces. Paying homage by shining, Mutuality of existence, Chlorophyll for oxygen Light for life, A fair bargain.

so you write a lot, pouring entire waking existences, current n' prior, into a long and crafted 'pistles, and pixels and you got jive pride and then, the poem, you worked so hard for, ups and dies gets a few middling fingers of reads, dying on a vining of Juliet's pseudo poisoning elixir, no big deal, happens all the time but here's what's wielding & weirdly wilding: ***A poetpourri. of newly found co-inhabitors, from around the universe, from places unpronounceable, unlike Venus & Mars, (very poet-popular) and from previously places were never or seldom was heard a discouraging word, igniting a rewarded mutuality of a following up embracing*** par example; Tirunelveli Poland Lisbon Cyprus Bihar Uruguay Ankara Vienna Albania Tanzania India Bangladesh New Zealand/Australia Soldotna (Alaska) plus Texas, West Va., Ohio, and other exotica, like Nowhere what a blessing! Blessed art Thou o Lord, that permits the miracle that my integers of 0 & 1 can be translated into such varied exotica, in harmony, thus permitting this discovery of never visited oceans and landfalls of poetry never heretofore to join as one.
