Magic Square

[westcoast]

Borrowed time and comic books

A gold fish tail
winking at eternity

Green grass under snow
at the North Pole

The State of Nebraska?

Get rich quick schemes

Buttered popcorn

Soul patches

Iranian girls

A frog boiling
slowly in a pot

Fixing broken boards in a fence

[constantine]

surreal. i like the surreal. it's so ....surreal! there's no land under the north pole, but that adds to the mystery.

[westcoast]

there is no land under the north pole ????


thank u friend.

~westcoast

[Lightning Rod]

Is there land under the north pole?
sure there is
you just have to go through the ice and then the ocean
the land at the north pole is the ocean floor
where the Russians want to drill for oil


otherwise, west
an interesting cascade of images

[stilltrucking]

there is no north pole
just a sguare hole
where the munchkins come and go
in an igloo
speaking of mike angelo

this is not a gimmick
it is has been proven scientificaly
to add six inches to your penis

[westcoast]

gentlemen,

as the truck meister notes
many things grow without soil

lichens feed on oxygen
hanging from forest limbs

bamboo sprouts
situated in glasses of water

are you so certain
grass can not grow
alone
under
nutirnet rich snow
?

[stilltrucking]

Something in the snow
under it
life opportunistic
I could believe it
grass maybe why not
blue green algae
ice worms
microbes
all kinds of life


Iwas going to delete that, just thinking about something I heard on TV the other day
"This is real"

[westcoast]

magically so!

~west

[constantine]

and that was that. what a think tank!

[Lightning Rod]

truckin'....
just fucking STOP IT!

I mean stop claiming that you are not a poet
I won't have any more of it

[stilltrucking]

I guess I could believe that Clay.
but only by accident.
thanks

This one of those poems that satisfied me with out dissecting it, with out deconstructing it

I wasted thrity years trying to read Husserl, too much latin and greek I finally gave up, but I got few things I picked up.

Williamjames warned us about setteling our accounts with reality

And husserl talked about seeing as a child, possibilities wide open.
Magic yes



I liked this poem WC, liked it a lot, it satisfied me down on some level I don't get, like looking at an abstract painting. I was not going to comment
just ruminate happily on it.

It is getting harder every day, I keep trying to stop believing in Magic, I want to settle my accounts.

I am sorry I used that example, I could have said guaraneed to grow your hair back

Red Square.
