on double entendres and inuendoooooos...

You see, I think in eight dimensions

and ever anything I may say may or may not

appear to be eight of any given things at once

and yet I only mean what I say quite

specifically having not the thought process

intentionally though I know I've done it

as soon as it's said and oh how I do snicker!

dreamin is free...

Someone but the right one...

let me turn your bacon

into fresh veggie pies,

cool scented linens, wine,

a clean mowed lawn

fresh trimmed bush.

I long to read, to write,

to nourish, twenty plus

years of labor have I

to throw to the wind

weary of the constraint.

And what if

I worked part-time in some small café near the beach

brought home pastries and cream, made sure you ate.

Went to school, yes I'd like to eventually teach, summers

to play and live and there could always be the café

when your job was more demanding and until you quit,

yes I want you to quit, me teaching, the tables turning

both pursing what comes from the musings we play

and bring passion

to each day and eve.

Ah but a dream and yet

that life would I lead

ever if I could find

someone but the right one.

writing is...


when asked what do i do? i rarely say i work in academia and am a goddamn underpaid...

anyway, i say "oh i write"

and of course they ask "oh and where do you publish?" or "what have you written?" or "do you have a book out?"

i of course am thinking "how bloody damn conformist of you." but i turn the tides and say

"what a lovely..." and they preen and puff at the compliment to thier a p p e a r a n c e.

and i am happy having not shared my passion of writing my soul like ink on paper with someone so low as not to be able to understand...

writing is breathing, one breath at a time, one heart beat in a moment captured and expressed.
