Let me keep my distance, always, from those
who think they have the answers.
Let me keep company always with those who say
"Look!" and laugh in astonishment,
and bow their heads.
Be still, sad heart! and cease repining;
Behind the clouds is the sun still shining
A fool will always find banana skins
Robert PriestI loved you head over handles
like my first bicycle accident—
before the mouthful of gravel and blood,
I swore we were flying.

Stichwörter: poetry
Ye who have laid your love to rest,
And wept above their lifeless clay,
Know not the anguish of that breast,
Whose lov'd are rudely torn away.
Ye may not know how desolate,
Are bosoms rudely forced to part,
And how a dull and heavy weight,
Will press the life-drops from the heart.

Many of the poets writing today are hung up on language and symbolism. If the poem does not have depth of meaning or fit a certain academic styles and standards, then it is not poetry. Poetry should relate to the man on the street who has to work for a living. Until poetry connects with the working man, it’s not going to sell; it’s not going to be of value.

She was the reason I started to write but her beauty is kept me writing.

Enquirer, cease, Petitions yet remain,
Which Heav'n may hear, nor deem Religion vain.
Still raise for Good the supplicating Voice,
But leave to Heav'n the Measure and the Choice.

I make work that is many things at once: poems that are prose, that are pictures, that are poem and picture. Actions that are images using poems that are umbrellas. My best work is both/and, in-between, occupying several dimensions simultaneously.

Pearl comes over, to a shell.... so beautiful, that hard to spell.... even seems, like an angel eye.... relation with whom, gonna tie.... with Sun, it gets its reflection.... explained all without words neither any action.... such a day, as here has risen.... by heart wanna love, not by vision....
