      Matter, Motion, The Nature of Truth

      MATTER, MOTION, THE NATURE OF TRUTH In these early hours when the sun wears grey mist, the horizon opens sluggishly not wanting to give up the night. Appearing in its April shroud Mt. Veracity guards the inner bay and more distant vistas of the Obsidian Sea. In...

      • “See the world as it really is, allowing us to change the world into a place we would want to live.” Eyes wide open. lovely

        • It’s ironic when you think about it Fia. Many want change, want to live in a different world, where people coming together to solve problems is the morality, but are unwilling to see the world and it’s me, me, me morality at its source, and so blame people, rather than a system that has created the way people are and act. It’s a daunting task, but it is possible to do.

          Thank you Fia for your comment and for visiting. Both are muchly appreciated.

      • Reading this, I feel both the vastness of the universe and the warmth of small human connections– the magic of matter and motion felt in shared moments and the world around us

        • Those moments are precious, aren’t they! We are social creatures and need and welcome those connections. I want to and work toward a world where these connections thrive and flourish. Think how beautiful this world would/could be and how cherished such connections would feel and delight!!

          Thank you RomaJ, the matter in motion that is me, welcomes your visit and your comment.

      • This is quite brilliant .. makes me feel very small indeed .. and which of course is absolutely true .. Write on brother .. Neville 😎⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐👍

        • Another ironic thought, when looked at from the vastness of the universe, we are small indeed. But when looked at from our home, Earth, what we do makes all the difference. It is up to us to decide whether what we do will make the world as a whole better or worse. Us small humans can disturb the Universe.

          I appreciate your comment Neville and want to thank you for it and of course for stopping by.

      • Everything is energy, everything is in motion, everything changes… nothing stays the same. as this might sounds scary, as this (exactly as you’ve written) holds the magic. to reach the point where what we all do is living the moment, is the ultimate power. I see You to be both, dreamy, imaginative and smart. I’m still caught in this phrase (April shroud), a phrase I wish to have written. Thank You 🤍

        • Light, I think we are magic. Our lives matter in ways we often underestimate. And that April shroud dissipates as we reach for the morning sun. Thank you for the wonderful comment and the “dreamy and imaginative”, but not so sure about the “smart”.
          And thank you for your visit, it is muchly appreciated.

      Last Night

      LAST NIGHT I awoke in the middle of the night thinking you were there. I swear I heard your heart beat coming from your side of the bed; could feel your breath softly warm my face; could smell you, a womanly musk, floating crisply like a clear winter’s...

      • This is a sweet red zone, and it gives a cozy vibe to it.

        • Dreams like this are “sweet”, Fia. They are “cozy” as well, but then there comes the hollowness when you awaken and realize it is just a dream, a memory of what once was. Thank you, Fia, for your comment.

      • Ah, we all have been there, and seek to write an adequate poem to capture the feelings that it causes. Your write does it very well, tenderly and a slight bit hauntingly. Wonderfully written.

      • A tender meditation on absence, where memory lingers in heartbeat, scent, and light. The poem makes longing almost tangible, delicate yet deeply felt.

      • RomaJ, your insights are spot on. Thank you.

      • Creatively done Adelly. I like the metaphors within this and the addiction related idea. Nice!!!!

      • Hey there Tim!
        Of course I find a typo! Hahaha
        It’s always after I post!

        Thanks for checking this out buddy.
        Just wrote today:)

      • Beautifully penned, Adel. Excellent write my friend. Appreciate you.

        Damian

      • Crisp… resounding… well done my dear

        • Thank you! It’s a phrase I’m thinking about for my next book!
          It was originally going to be Poetry Stained Teeth – The Golden Addition but me and my typos!
          I put addiction instead and I thought – Hmmm, I dig it! Hahaha

      • This poem brilliantly captures the allure and danger of obsession. The golden imagery makes the craving feel vivid, intense, and almost irresistible, while the tension between desire and self-destruction gives it a haunting edge.

        • Hi Roma. Yes, that’s exactly where I was going.
          How we can be so caught up in what we think is good for you and over do it.
          Tricking ourselves into destruction.

          Thanks for the comment!

      • Excellent ink my friend and subsequently awarded the dubble thumbs up and a gold star .. Neville 😎👍👍⭐

      • It’s cool how you left the golden addiction nameless to the end but alluded to it throughout. I’m a moon girl, myself. The sun hates me. 😂 This was beautifully executed!

        • The sun hates everyone that’s why we get sunburned. Hahaha
          A little is okay but too much is painful. It can feel like an oven.
          But I see people baking out there, loving it.

          I love the moon too:)
          It’s forgiving

          Thanks for checking this out!

      • Hahaha. I love that!
        I’m glad you enjoyed the romp amigo!
        Stay cool Adagio!

      • Hey there. I’m the guy in the back, late, but clapping along with everyone else. LOL
        Awesome write, Del. It’s a tinge on the darker hue of mood, but it isn’t depressing. It’s actually like a scowl towards the sun, knowing you have to face it. That’s an underlying strength. Which you have!
        Great stuff young lady!

        • Better late than never!
          You get special passes young man. Hehehe
          I was in a mood so I went with it and this write was given birth. lol
          Thanks again love buddy:)

      • love buddy? OMG it sounds like a reality show ! You ready? I told you that you have natural star qualities. Time to show up!

        • I’m grabbing my star studded shoes and clicking three times while chanting I want to go to Mark’s:)
          And you are my love buddy!

      • Cool. I’m your tin man babydoll.
        My gal pal! My funk punk!
        My grammarly mammories!

      • Tremendous work. I relate.

        • Hi Thomas.

          Thank you. Wanted to post something a little edgy and different.
          Sometimes I want to sound like a poet and sometimes I want to sound like a mess. lol

          Thanks again!

      • Love love this one! there is something special and alluring about it, (the sun was my omen) is a line that sticks in the head! All this poem reminds me when there is so much emotions and feelings, overwhelming and overflowing… and You don’t know what to do with them, You look at the sun and all You feel is You wanting to be it, wanting to expand with no end! Fabulous Bright Poem ✨🌞✨

        • Oohh. I dig this comment! Yes expand with no end. When our time comes our life force transforms into something else entirely. Into energy and off we go! Being on that level of transcendence, I can only imagine.
          Thanks for stopping by and commenting:)
          It was enlightening!

      • Hey Damien!

        Thank you for that. He just got home from a bike fest.
        How could I not post this! Lol
        Thanks for checking this out amigo;)

      • Great job with this… tight stanzas… great flow… I’m sure he will love it

      • He better! Hahaha
        Thank you 😊

      • I don’t need a harley. You’re all the excitement that I can handle! Your enthusiasm and sincere curiosity towards things is so addictive to me. It’s what I needed in my life!
        Oh, and the fact that you are a writer too, as well as an artist with digital imagery, just cements the deal!

        Thanks for the smile that I got from this read. And the thoughts! You made quite a Splash… lol

        • I love that movie!! You know this!
          Everything in this write reminds me of us.
          How could I not post, especially knowing you were going to a bike fest.
          Thanks for all the pics you sent.
          What can I say, you make me curious. lol

      • This was fun read. I hope you enjoyed the Tequila

      • I love the soft rhymes and whimsical flow — the poem beautifully mixes playful with intimate longing, like a tide carrying desire and anticipation.

        • Hi Roma.
          Thank you. I’ve seen a few motorcycles with a mermaid spray painted on the tank.
          Wouldn’t it be cool if they were able to come alive!

          It was a vision I saw playing out in my head so I wrote it down. A mermaid swimming towards her
          lover who happens to own a Harley. The motor is so loud she hears it even underwater:)

          Thanks for checking this out!

      • Oooo! This is SO sweet! I will love anything with mermaids! and when I was reading along your poem, I was thinking that mermaids and motorcycles (or let’s us say the RIDER of motorcycle😎) would make a unique amazing couple! this was fun to read, I bet Mark was smiling when he read it as I’m smiled too😊.

        • Aww thank you. I wrote this when I had this image of a mermaid sleeping in water. Her eyes pop open when she hears the harley motor vibrate the water. Up she goes getting all primed up for her date. lol
          It was fun to write.
          Thanks for checking this out!
