solution

[Shem]

So what do you do?
The woman is there.
Though possessed by another
The understanding between the twixt of you
Complete
But the moment.
The moment is off.
So what do you do?
Ignore the possibilities?
They are there.
No denying.
But she is already engaged. So what?
Nothing?
The fools move.
Confess your feelings?
The possibility of retribution is slim.
So what?
I ask
Is the solution.

Oi, it may be the vodka or the wine talking, but it has been a fucked up few months wherein I’ve lost the woman I’ve known, my children’s paternal bond, the main tool of my artistic possibilities and I' left with what? My piss poor poetic ratings, my so called job, and the possibility (though far fetched and unrealistic) of a meaningful relationship with a lovely coworker who may not be quite ready for my ideals. Oi! I guess i should just go drink some more and regret posting this in the morning.

too much wine, seeing double!

[mnaz]

ahhh, seeing double. that's when true poetry begins.

I seem to be in a similar fix. Over and over.

[Shem]

Oi, there are things I would rather not repeat; I guess the scream of KATZ is supposed to release me.....

[mnaz]

the scream of KATZ??

[Shem]

The true expression of Zen my friend, what else can an artist inspire to?

[mnaz]

or conspire to.

many paintings yet unpainted.

much verse left unwritten. it just kills me.

[Shem]

Every moment a koan, every second a poem, every instance a pice of art missed.

if we live our lives artfully, then our lives will be a masterpice. i've heard that in the east they play at work and work at play, sounds like a sound ideal to me....

[mnaz]

'Every moment a koan, every second a poem, every instance a piece of art missed.'

Wow. Now that's some pressure. It's a long game, or so it seems.

[e_dog]

within each second is a second second.

the momentary in-stand.

like a gallery of smiley faces
waitin to be iconographied.

oh... sorry for your loss, Shem!. "Life goes on..! - if you are not too much idealist-" (it´s a free-version of the sayings of the most famous politic here in the last fifty years )..!
