Sensitive

Post by hester_prynne » September 18th, 2008, 2:31 am

Sensi finally decided
to leave tive,
despite having been
one word with him
for centuries.
She put on her fedora,
stuck her tongue out,
slammed the door,
and left.
She sensi'd
an immediate shift
in herself,
without that
t i v e tail.
As if shackles
had been lifted
from her very soul,
as if she might very well
be able to fly,
in the vast broadness
of what she sensed.
It was revel rousing,
to be freed from that
boorish old
grammatically correct
suffix,
holding her prisoner
since the first writes.

Without tive,
sensi could mingle
from her gut
full throttle.
Transparent with
the moon,
fired up with sun.
The very air and light
were more than
precious like,
now that tive
had been severed
from her word origin.
What an ish he was.
Tive and ish should
get compounded.
(Tiveish.)
(Drop the e maybe.)
Avid describers like that
deserve each other.
Sensi wants
no part of it.
In fact,
Sensi is gone already.
Melded into a vibe
off a high energy driven circle
of now.
Tivelessy rendered,
into who she is
at any moment,
which forces her,
to forget who she was
a second ago.

Aw Perdida, you're a real pal...thank you for reading this and commenting so kindly, I appreciate that...
I was sorta playin around...and it was fun, and then bravely, I decided to post it, risking all my fears of rejection, and nerdiness. Not to mention my fear of exposing to every one the fact that basically I am a square.
Thanky....

Sensi was a nickname
for Sensemilla, the herb
without seeds, she was
the goddess of smoke-
filled nights.
Over time she morphed
into Sensei, the Japanese
teacher that had long since
given up on the antics
of the renegade tive,
no longer able to tolerate
his tivish behavior.
Sensi knew there was
no turning back.


loved it hest, that's why you should always post here among friends...sure we deal out a few clinkers here and there, but
creativity needs exposure to blossom, ..to create wondrous hybrids
of imagination......enjoyed the ride....
If you do not change your direction
you may end up where you are heading
