Feeling good today, moving faster and faster, loving the feel
I wrote this a few days ago, enjoy or run, we live :)

Infatuated

Words, wonderful scary words
Chase me down stairways
Across old covered bridges
Begging to be heard, made real
By some speak easy poet
I love the idea
But I am one man
So many words
I try as best I can
Pen in mind
Paint shadows to light
Voiced of long lost poets.
Langston Hughes, Edgar Guest,
And Pablo Neruda,
Salute the brotherhood
As I pass near their souls
Respect shared, life grows
Rare be I stumble
The words drop in line on there own
Order chosen long before,
I hear even one word
I guilt in realms of endless buttered emotion
Accepting praise, for art so cleverly scripted
I ache in the guilty pleasure
Riding wave after wave of wonder
Until reality crashes the moment
Glass shatters, words oh beautiful words
Flipped, tossed and strewn all about
Nay, I fear to tremble
As again they fall in their comfortable place

Sorry I haven't been around, seems my drastic diet change made my body argue with me, we had a long two week discussion, and I finally convinced it this was going to happen, I won. But not before it gave me weeks of feeling sick, weak, worn and worthless. Again, in control I submit a new poem, from just this morning. Hope you have a wonderful day, and if you know what Twitch is online, follow me there, in creative I stream my work live. Find me using HellBentVet, respect.


The Walk

Lonely today
Feeling so empty, dull inside
Longing to share
The crisp morning
Until the warmth of day
Has driven the chill away
Walk with me, only for a moment
Or forever, if in my words
Should you feel at home
Out the door and onto a path
One to an imaginary painted forest
Tell me, do you know the one?
With silken lavender dancing treestars
Tenderly whispering each step of the way
Trees, their bark smooth, they give pause to nature
As if sanded, then painted by the hand of an skilled artist
In swaying long strokes, brushes hue the colors of grassy green rainbows
They tease at your senses, and capture the canvas with ease
Your body quakes ever so slightly, as your hand touches the surface
Reminding you the caress of a certain lover, many long memories ago
You sigh, as you give way to the feeling to rush, yet again to the feverish craving
One, truly you would have sworn, only an instant before, you had never missed
Suddenly you rise from the memory
Gift a thankful kiss upon my cheek
And run away giggling
As you leave me alone..

Smiling

Six Days

Six days today I chose to change, for me
felt pains in my chest, that were not pains of me
Feeling them pinprick under my sternum
shooting spearing waves down my stanch belly
electric, lightening fast, painful like fire
scared awake my senses
Caused me to consider myself from deep within
The place we lock away truths we have known
but not accepted... until forced to peer inside
walking slowly past both mind and aching body
One thing was certain, this way to large body
had to be stressing, fat entombing areas fat should not be
The body as marvelous a wonder as wonders can be
finds no way to counter, repel or cast it away
our mind knows it has been screaming
for years now, stop wait, you can't do this
you're killing yourself...
we don't listen
On we eat on, unhealthy
comfort feeding life, devouring our days away
Our bodies grow, no choice or say in this peril
We guide this train right off the tracks
smashing our senses, dulling our pride
So today, six days now
life adjusted, wiser
I went shopping, ignored most of the aisles I loved
Stopped at the clearance Christmas candy
and smiled, snicker'd even
and pushed past with none in my cart, a small win
like playing some video game, seeking achievements to unlock
This achievement is life, my life, I need this for me
easy so far, surprisingly so
enjoying the new family I have met
here in this chat blog, friends
yet, only found seeking
... the calories of a chicken breast.
6 days, 11 pounds gone... little arrow down!
