    • Ok So I'm back in my house after the eight months in the woods because of the fire. Everything seems to be ok now. I guess we will have to work with that. btw I do have my lip redone. Yay for quilting needles.

    The sun shines only in dreams

    This light I see inside myself
    Is nothing
    more than a figment.
    I try to hide from the stares and voices
    they follow
    never stopping to breathe or think or live
    Why do i see through the fog of such putrid lies and blind myself to
    everything that matters
    nothing matters

    I am the darkness that lives inside of all emotions
    The imbalance that causes the world in my mind to shift so suddenly
    like so many leaves in the wind
    It is nothing but thought
    simple and unnoticed
    Simply unnoticeable.
    For it is nothing but the clouds
    drifting across the make believe light,
    through the beams that mean nothing
    for they are nothing

    Blue skies are a trick of the eyes
    The sun is a part of one
    Or none
    Or all?
    waiting for the fall

    very nice! and familiar. the unasked for crosstobear of being too empathetic and effected/isolated. be patient with yourself as you find the ability to accomodate the "vapors" of being in life.

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
