find a reason

Post by creativesoul » March 4th, 2014, 2:46 pm

last weeks power surge
thought i could
pretend i was wonder woman
at the gym
in the mountains
by the falls
chopping wood
wood stove blazing

laughter

dreams of another time
carried me
to find many reasons
to be happy

the alternative
has been had
see sunrise when the dog
summons me to open the door

[size=150][/size]just happy- so long I carried the rocks of dispair- so throw rocks into the river - yelling sometimes into the sky

Asking why

Today
All that is old
Cold sad crap
Internal rap

a woman is the wonder of the world

men have much to be humble about

I ride the ego trip

I am up I am down

and when I am down

it cheers me up to think it could be worse

I could have been born a woman :P

don't mind me baby sister

I just dig your poetry :mrgreen:

it maketh me want to jam 8)

I got no reason to live other than I enjoy breathing so much.

Perhaps the only thing that I wonder about on this Sunday night is why I have a toothache ? Monday at 8:30- that smell- of the dentist office- ugh/
Is that really your picture- ? Anyway - I love being alive- but " reasonable" implies compliance : 8) and maybe I'm not ready to be docile in any way- I think that anyone that wants me to be " someone for them" is nuts..... My stomach gets sour late at night- now I am an obsessed painter getting my prints and little canvas s to the island where I was born/ a few times - inside -

No its not me, you are probably too young to remember Gabby Hayes I guess. He was Roy Roger's geezer sidekick in the movies.

I got addicted to the grind, sometimes I like to stay up late just to remember what it was like taking it to the max on a cross country haul. That beat feeling of giving it everything I had. I sit in this chair and imagine it is a windshield I am looking at not this screen.

classic- i have this thing that happens- i went into an art supply store on the 1st- [i should know better]
now all of the sudden i am laughing- slightly flirtatous- grabbing a few too many tubes of paint and sort of abstractedly putting it on the counter- i was totally elated-
i think i understand why men like porn

Porn deflates me
I don't get much elation from it
only desolation and despair
I got on a porn jag more than once
it was depressing
don't want to go there no more

elation is

an open road
an open mind
an open heart

make me a poster of an old rodeo

i was more = trying to make humor out of the way each person gets stimulation- for me - new paint brushes and paints is as good as a new outfit for a hoe- sex toy for the fet--ish person= and cowboy paraphanaila for the rodeo junkie- oh i love old funky hawaiiana like some like betty boop-
but tonight i have something on my mind-

i was trying to find things i didnt like about him- and i was running out of dumb shit that bothered me
i look at him
i say' i wasnt supposed to like you, i have to go now'
like our afternoons after the gym-
- hot- three blocks away
i wonder
if reasonable has anything at all to do with it
thankfully he is an educated horticulturist
green is gold
i am great with that
organic food

he cooks for me
i listen quite a bit
botany has a tendency to make people
'forget what they are talking about'
kind of like that
he looks like jesus but talks like a new yorker
likes the yankees
mr hanky panky
weeeeeee
so i am pretty happy
