Occasionally

Nod to the cursed gods in poetry and self.

Oh for the weather

that staggering beast that bathes beneath your eyes

the hook in your hand that told me everything

Occasionally I still ramble about the traps 

still believing there may be scraps of you left

here, scattered about 

perhaps just for the sense in me

Occasionally to tear me apart 

flurry and wonder over things I cannot control

as you’re always willing to settle the dye

And who really knows

But then it was God that placed you here

and it was love you refused to ingest

I was only the reminder 

and oh for the weather

that tangent blade to bring us down if not only 

for its fun

Occasionally in the thunder of the rain

when you showed yourself a woman

I'd restrain 

but then…

But then I saw you,
You were there standing, right in front of me..
Smiling in the similar fashion
Just to melt me more and bring me down in its juice of paradise
I'd refrain, refrain to go down that path again
But then..
I am a man and you are one beautiful woman.

Lovely write, beautiful poet! Take your time to complete that and still leave it unfinished so we can muse over it.

Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas in a while!

I love this one. Love how it takes the reader on a journey into the memory of possibly the one who wrote this. That being said, as one glides across the page, there are those emotions that many can relate to....

.... very well done! Quite the excellent one!

Ya think ? Just starting a series of softer screams from here to there when you something takes what cannot be lost...wondrous thoughts come to that strange surface ..but hey.."'I'm still Alive"..Thanks A.
