      So safe and smug
      in our,
      screaming silence.
      Slipping serenely
      into our
      silent violence.
      It's never much fun,
      until you have won,
      but we
      all leave
      this world
      blithely burnt
      and shunned
      to travel
      into the beyond
      well done.
      She left me sick,
      as far as I can tell,
      slowly fading
      ensnared by
      her smallest swells.
      Pulled all along,
      dragged deep
      into a heap;
      led to tunnel into
      a desolate stretch
      left unpainted
      and blue.
      Torn like taffy,
      from your visage.
      Your body
      has no faith
      But, your mind
      left a message.
      Fade away blessed,
      triumphantly tingling.
      A sensation
      leaves us
      all interwoven,
      still intermingling,
      in sad repose,
      forever ringing.
      Carved and drawn
      slowly falling out
      from flaking flesh
      filtered throughout
      a delicate sieve
      in delicious distress
      you long to forget.
      In the midst of
      lilac darkness
      you begin anew,
      back to square one
      a lot of miles done
      yet nothing to remember,
      until next November,
      when skies mix into gray,
      and in our slumber
      we have nothing
      to say.
      Our symbiosis
      is atrocious
      as a notion...
      ...given to
      pure devotion.
      your words
      writ large,
      and spilled
      like potion...
      trickling slowly
      down deep into a
      bottomless ocean
      Yet, I cannot dismiss
      all of your distress
      flicked everlasting
      onto our
      canvas mess,
      made and laid,
      inspected, dissected
      and introspected.
      Made to be best,
      by the best,
      no less,
      and better
      on all occasion
      for mass persuasion.
      For no truer words
      ring out to find,
      you in the womb
      lying entranced
      resting, protesting,
      looking askance.
      Left lightly consumed,
      you make room
      to bloom,
      into your
      delicate space,
      A race I face,
      moving apace,
      in hurried haste.
      Blinded by starlight,
      searching in tune
      for a golden goon.
      A boon to whom?
      And you left
      me so soon.
      I must conclude,
      as we alight
      onto our brood
      that it would
      be rude
      and lewd
      to end
      confused
      so
      misconstrued
      eating
      fingerless food
      with sad
      attitudes
      crude
      and shrewd
      beaten
      and blued
      still even
      then I remain
      forever in
      the mood.

      war could and what

      I would die etcetera

      to become hoarse talking about how it was

      My favourite poem is "Ode: Intimations of Immortality" by William Wordsworth. It's too long for a UA-cam comment, so I'll just share my favorite portion:
      What though the radiance, which was once so bright be now forever taken from my sight
      Though nothing can bring back the hour of the splendor in the grass, the glory of the flower
      We will grieve not, rather find strength in what remains behind...

    She walks in beauty, like the night
    Of cloudless climes and starry skies;
    And all that’s best of dark and bright
    Meet in her aspect and her eyes;
    Thus mellowed to that tender light
    Which heaven to gaudy day denies.

    God, I've always had a weird crush on Helena. She just never seems to age, even though she's into her 50s now. I could listen to her speak for hours....and I have such a love for the "darkness" that she exudes in some of her movie roles and in "real life", as well, with her sense of humor and story-telling. She's such a damn interesting woman to me. When I see an interview with her, I'm gonna click! :)

      That said, I’m not a big fan of the fact she had an affair with Kenneth Branagh when he was married to Emma Thompson. But that’s more on him than her.

      Haha, I can see why you’d think so, but as much as I admire how gorgeous and talented she is, I would never want to, well, have ‘knowledge’ of her. Not my cuppa, alas. See, one can recognise and appreciate the beauty and allure of a person without wanting to experience it themselves.
      Personally I like tall dark men with dark eyes and hair and beards that I can feel brush on my face. Mmmm. That’s what ‘does it’ for me.
      But I think every (enlightened) adult can recognise what they find appealing in both men and women.

    Our symbiosis
    is atrocious
    as a notion...
    ...given to
    pure devotion.
    your words
    writ large,
    and spilled
    like potion...
    trickling slowly
    down deep into a
    bottomless ocean
    Yet, I cannot dismiss
    all of your distress
    flicked everlasting
    onto our
    canvas mess,
    made and laid,
    inspected, dissected
    and introspected.
    Made to be best,
    by the best,
    no less,
    and better
    on all occasion
    for mass persuasion.
    For no truer words
    ring out to find,
    you in the womb
    lying entranced
    resting, protesting,
    looking askance.
    Left lightly consumed,
    you make room
    to bloom,
    into your
    delicate space,
    A race I face,
    moving apace,
    in hurried haste.
    Blinded by starlight,
    searching in tune
    for a golden goon.
    A boon to whom?
    And you left
    me so soon.
    I must conclude,
    as we alight
    onto our brood
    that it would
    be rude
    and lewd
    to end
    confused
    so
    misconstrued
    eating
    fingerless food
    with sad
    attitudes
    crude
    and shrewd
    beaten
    and blued
    still even
    then I remain
    forever in
    the mood.

    It's funny, listening to her accent change is fascinating. I grew up in North America myself but I have a British accent still and depending on whom I'm with, it becomes stronger or weaker. I guess because of all the time she's spent in North America you can hear her American twang "I wanded to be" ... and then it switches to full on english when she recites that poem.

    Poems about hope and love are always nice. I wrote this one when Hope Hicks stonewalled the House Judiciary committee hearing for Trump. True love, and hope! Lovely, oh nearly forgot poetry (well limerick) corner:
    Committee Hearings (aka Hear no Evil - Muting for Putin!)
    Hope Hicks speaks very softly to stall
    You can hardly hear her talk at all
    But a voice deep inside her
    Blows the case open wider
    Exposing her as a Russian doll
    That's how Trump sees her as an asset
    (Her posterior is a facet)
    That he likes to admire
    How it makes him perspire
    He watches on VHS Cassette
    But lately Trump's spirits are sagging
    Because his polling has been flagging
    So he orders "Hope Hicks
    Close your mouth on Trump's tricks"
    Desperate to enforce a court gagging
    Is that you ... Double Don Tinder (of Double Don Tinder's Double Entendres)? I thought I saw you sneaking around there.

      e.e. cummings wrote many poems like that. My high school English teacher kept telling me that I couldn't recite his poems in class due to their nature. My favorite is "my sweet old etcetera." It was my first cummings poem and threw me for a loop, as his poems do. When I worked out the ending, I blushed a lot. 😊

    Nugu gurunkilu bard gurutu,
    Ash Burz-Durbagu burzum-ishi,
    Daghburz-ishi makha gulshu darulu.
    Ash nazg durbatulûk, ash nazg gimbatul,
    ash nazg thrakatulûk agh burzum-ishi krimpatul,
    Daghburz-ishi makha gulshu darulu.

    poetry for me is like a perfect delusion with something beautiful, so much it would hurt, and then falling out of it because is not real, when you hit the wall of reality at the high speed of life, is better to dream carefully but wildly about feasible things, is much more productive and emotionlly safe IMO, at least I like to administrate my feelings this way
