untitled

a mystery

without a key

to unlock your inside

door to your mind

the wheels of time

keep turning

and I keep churning

 

out the same nonscensical bullshit

 

dripping from my tongue, my heart, my pen

 

lie awake for awhile &

 

remember me

This poem is very near to my own attempts at unlocking my truest self...... funny that you pair a pic of a Buddha (is it Vajrasattva?) along with it. From my experience, this is really what life is for...... being active in our own evolution. That "nonsensical bullshit" is part of it, but taking the time to "remember me", as you say, seems to be the higher self tapping your shoulder?
Nonetheless, a great little noodle about your experience! Thanks!

I like this poems thoughts trickled down the page as I read it. There is an ease and a free-flowing feel to this write and the last lines remind me nights when I try to go to sleep, but lines of poetry keep creating themselves and I have to write them down.

Very raw. It makes my heart ache because I know that kind of unGodly pain. :+(

I hope your doing okay, it's been a long time- I know.

Spoken with the passion only a true artist could render, imo, the way you capture
such raw emotion, and truth, the heart cant help but to be caught bty the moment,
I really like the form and style.

mysterious and enigmatic, I keep looking over my shoulder. Time is flying and all isn't what it seems. I will remember. No choice.

[The Rock And Roll Cowbo..]

The mind can be complexed and many things can set off old memories, a scent or a song... woderfully expressed my friend.

[TL Boehm]

there is something wonderfully 'cyclical' or circular in this poem - the words generate a spin of their own..I find that appealling - and don't know if I could duplicate the effect even on my best day....

[Flying Bull]

It starts off feeling like you are going for a dark interlude, a remembrance of love lost, then bang you throw some humor in there and it changed the tone quickly and makes it lighter. Nicely done.

[Lyra H]

I like it too!

[Travis Lawrence]

I've often felt this way in the past, that the cycles we go through are a useless waste of time. I like it!
