A stranger falls, and

as he falls he is breaking --


in into my life.
Poem "Weet nog wel" ("I remember", 2022, Ester Naomi Perquin)

A door may open,

in any blind wall, it will --


be a door of love.
Novel "The PowerBook" (2000, Jeanette Winterson), chapter "CHOOSER"

Collection "Within the walls"

There are just no ways

to our goals, we hesitate --


and saunter about.
"Es gibt ein Ziel", aphorism II,4 #26 (1918, Franz Kafka): "Es gibt ein Ziel, aber keinen Weg, das was wir Weg nennen ist Zögern." ("There is a goal, but no way, what we call the way is hesitation.")

I think I could have loved you,
O, how you stoked passion's fire!
Or was it just the madness of Spring
That kindled such wild desire?

Was my lantern's glow too faint
As our ships passed in the night?
Or perhaps Fate extinguished the flame
Before you could see its light

We may well have been lovers
If given the proper chance;
But why did the music stop playing
Before we finished our dance?
Robin Carretti Jun 2023
Are we only spiritually one
A glide or mask
Love burning task
Chosen red brick
Dreaming what's real
Or forever to be tricked
Building sea castle home
The chosen one alone

       *       *       *       *

Is the chosen one cleverly smart?
What's truly inside our hearts
Only one wish

Stars and the moon rush
Shinning on one thought
Cheeks glow feather light- blush
Like unique creation
*       *       *       *
Follow your mission
Be happy make a
new transition  
The chosen one
Chosen One, how one thought can change our thinking
Join the global revolution
A once in a bloodline chance
Join the peaceful grand solution
Seize the offered circumstance

Come and make your contribution
The Bitcoin standard rings out true
Free from value dissolution
Instead it lets our wealth accrue

Your children may not get the choice
To own a healthy Bitcoin share
Unless you choose with acts and voice
To opt away from fiat’s snare

Rise up - expand your comfort zone
Conquer what you need to learn
We can help - you’re not alone
Once in a bloodline chance to earn

Some times
I think about it
It suppouse to be me
But I don't do that
It could be any of us, could be me too
Everyone has a chance to marry you
But I never take it
Why?
........
You're my wish that never come true

Place your bets, you’re just in time
for the game, the fix is in.

What a thrill. Is it a crime to cash in?
The winners do, and that could be you.

You’ll be a witness, as wise guys smoothly step in
- it’s basic greed - and never a sin, as long as they win.

Mr slick ricky, you’ve got to be bold to win gold -
winners never just fold - betting never gets old.

The winners will add your few spare bucks to their *** -
let’s admit, all that you’ve got - isn’t a lot - it won’t fuel a yacht.

Place your bets, you’re in the front row all the time,
don’t be lame, be part of the game, the greasy bigtime.
I LOVE NFL football, but now every commercial is for some sports book like “Draft Kings.” How can the NFL, increasingly in league with gambling books, not end up mobbed-up and fixed?
It’s ruining NFL football - the illusion that it’s a real sporting competition. I’ll tell you, Once they start calling the NFL “entertainment” and not sports - it’s over - the game I once loved will be just like pro wrestling.

The misty murky forest deep
Forewarned his frantic finding flight
A chance to search without a peep
The misty murky forest deep
The only chance her heart to keep
Was finding her to make it right
The misty murky forest deep
Forewarned his frantic finding flight
Triolet form
