• Litany of False Worship

    (To be recited in twilight, before extinguished candles and broken mirrors.)   I kneel before the god who never asked. I light a candle that was never wax. I speak the name that was never given. I offer truth wrapped in illusion.   You wear robes...

    I keep searching

    I keep searching for a heart I will never findI should stop looking Before I loose my mindIn the beginning I thought I found one of a kindBefore realizing It was just someone to unwind They keep telling Me that Love is blind It’s terrifying To know...

    • Great write Sam

      Not sure if the universe lies or we just don’t know how to read it properly.
      Lust drives us to love and more often than not love drives us to lust.Its the impermanence of both that we don’t acknowledge.

    • Sam, I agree with Peter. Unsure if the universe lies or if we don’t know how to read it properly. But who ever said it would be easy??

      Cheers to love, and to lust. May we find it many times in our lifetimes. Hear, hear! Great write xx

    • Beautifully penned, Mark. A very passionate write my friend with excellent execution. Nicely done. Happy Holidays to you and Adel. Appreciate you.

      Damian

      • How’s you Damian? I hacked this write to death! I like it, I hate it, LOL.
        But I thank you just the same. I wanted to post something… Life is a bit busier lately, yet I still always have the craving to write and/or edit something.
        Del was here for ten days this time. And it’s always too short a visit.
        You take care out there, and have some awesome holiday times!

    • This is beautiful.

      • Thank you Amethyste. I appreciate your kind comment. This write was a struggle, so thank you for the note of encouragement.
        Happy Holidays to you!

    • Powerful work, my friend.

      • Hello Thomas!
        This write has some good parts, and some clunky parts, I know. I’ve been all helter skelter with the transition of ideas reaching the written word. Yet I am sure we all have the lulls in our writes.
        Have some happy holidays over on your corner of things. Then perhaps write something awesome, as you tend to do!

    • From the title to the stanzas within, this is a gorgeous and tender declaration Mark. No thrills, no spills – just the soft thrum of union. Rob

      • What a great word; Thrum.
        The title/name I totally made up, because I wanted something different. It also helps me remember my writes, by giving them some unique titles. Yeah?
        I appreciate the nod, Rob.
        I hope you are doing very well and finding inspiration in your world. It’s there, amigo. Just grasp it.

    • So touching and sweet.

      • Hey Fia! I had to feed my page something! LOL. I beat this write to death, and unfortunately it shows some scars! Choppy stanzas and such. But I’m moving on from it. I have a pretty good idea of what to write next. I just have to apply the time and mood to it. Soon!
        How’s you?!

    • Dear S,

      Well, you’ve still got it I see. I was riveted from start to finish as per. For me, there’s always a double story of the characters you write and the ones I superimpose over them because your writing is so alive and energetic. Wonderful write. H🌷

      • But I’m scrambling, H !
        I’m supposed to be finalizing them into book format, but I keep editing them more! I need intervention! lol
        As long as there is someone to tell me that I’m doing okay, I will keep going with this writing curse. So thank you for being that for me. I do like being engrossed in it. Don’t we all?

    • Tremendous imagery. You paint this scene well.

    • I love the painting with eyelashes! I might have to steal that!
      Being with you is home to me.
      Everything is relaxed and I was comfortable in my own skin or my bath robe. Lol

      This write reminds me of our time together. 10 whole days. It went by too fast but I cherished every second.
      I remember you bringing up a ballerina vibe for one of your writes. You did her justice with this. Very eloquent with just the right amount of angst. Thank you for posting this baby, gave me a smile while reading:)
      Love you and sorry it took me forever to comment! It’s been a crazy month at work and off as you know.
      Call ya later this evening:)

      • You don’t ever owe me a comment. As long as you wear my t-shirts like you do… That itself is quite a statement!
        As you know, there is no specific “Tey Saree”. It’s an image from my mind wandering like it does. Which is filled by you.
        I just come up with names to title them, so it doesn’t get too repetitive.
        `I just had a bag of popcorn for my bedtime snack. I’m a rebel! Thats why I buy toothbrushes in bulk.

        Hey, I missed you as soon as that shuttle pulled away! What a great time we had, punk!
        I love you too babydoll. I’m still smitten!
