poetry doesn't hold a candle to blather.

true, but when our world is no longer here, they are a feasable substitute... nothing holds a candle to blather

my hand holds a candle to blather when blather is lost in the cold ever-loathing darkness. i give blather a candle and tell blather, "Everything will be alright, my love...just...try to think of those good times, when you and she would go to the park and slide on the slide" and blather looks me in the eye and says, "Memories...are all i have left." and then blather blows out the candle and disappears forever inside my stomach

honey your radiance is intoxicating. the heat you give off is evident to all, even as you walk by, slow, pausing just long enough to gather me up, piece by shattered piece, and carry me along, swift yet considerate. all apologies, boy, but you don't possess me, though i'm mesmerized by your warm slight touch.

Drawn to ambition and lofty ideals, often ignoring that they can sometimes be and often are synonymous with egoism...

i thought maybe it was just the way she carries herself dancing along the lines of acceptance getting attention but not wanting it thoughts in her mind reflecting on her every word and how she could'nt just say no without feeling a little empty inside and all the while just being herself one face to million feelings to describe would be impossible like asking in how many ways can rain fall i guess then you just say well she's just magnetic

I think a lot about what magnetic forces do to us. Not on a literal level, but on a poetic one. There's a part of a poem in my head... years ago the few lines would have been sown and germinated and grown into... something. Now it's just bouncing around my head, and it needs to get out, because the other thing needs to be what I focus on. He is the sun. The centre Of the universe you created. You revolve around it, in the same Elliptical patterns you learned Beside the home hearth. I am the moon. Barely there, except In the reflected lights. I am nothing... but we are magnetic I can move The tides inside you. Then there's something about how we're all made of water and a dirty joke in there... but I'm not a poet anymore

(to finish your poem, Risen) Because the universe does not bend the way we want it to. Instead it follows shallow breaths, the pattern of heart beats, and knows that the earth does not rotate around the sun any more than the moon controls the tides. Because in dreams we whisper, voices low and deeper toned. And in the shadows with fingertips linked, We are always home.

I should not have put my username as unknown - it wasn't the one I formally used. You'll know from my poetry, I'm sure. I think. I hope.
