No Application

Missing image




Bombastic son of a blue thunder –
he must have cycled a thousand miles
around to get close enough to her –
the way she wanted getting close to. 

A subtle diversion dipped in
a clitoralistic stream
of rendezvoused jewelry
like a slow thrum;
a warm pulse;
a thwarted steaming sheen;
a cyclical surge;
an idyllic soothsayer of litany;
a Shaman pawnism conveyor
        of spirit, light and love. 

No application necessary.
Only what she wants to be made
when she wants it and how. 
Only the inexperienced need not apply.

      Thank you, but I believe Georgia O'Keefe created the painting based on my words. Of course I was much older then...

    Er, Ed, have I told you that reading your poetry is like an acid trip? Pretty sure only you could begin a poem with BOMBASTIC and follow though. Now I have that Shaggy Song in my head. Well done

    Ahhh, what can I say about this? You are so very refreshing. Thanks for this



    P.S. I LOVE the Shaman pawnism. Why do I feel like we've just shared a cup of tea?

      I wouldn't know what that's like - never done acid - but I can still see colors, man... Shaggy from Scooby Doo plays songs now? I didn't know he was a musician. Thanks - don't know why the feeling of shared tea, but I get the feeling that the sky is waving like a ship flag at sea and I'm an admiral in the 3rd fleet...

    Better third than never...

    The night is full of signs -
    with the body and face of a man
    these signs are his journeys
    the rock splits
    and speaks to the water
    the flame burns
    and speaks to the clouds
    like grains of sand on the sea floor
    that speak to the moon
    and the loud hammering of hearts
    speak, running up the bones of our thighs
    we hear the hoofs over the seethe of the sea...
    a cluster of lights in the night sky
    faces before a pillar of fire
    watching
    while the sea breaks open
    this night
    we find the way in...


    Gotta love Georgia in all her guises.

    This poem doesn't make any sense.

    I loved the alliteration in that first line. lol.
    And your descriptive second stanza. Ending? Well, what can i say, rounds it all up. Well done.
