I breathe the coloured air
cool
like Autumn
morning
teaspoon in a cup.
A touching
clear
precision the dawn brings with it,
a focus, an esteem of something new;
like Womanness.
‘Womanness,’ he said, just a word, a new word,
or more…
a strange word,
a strange man, but real maybe…..
WO MAN (is this) NESS (ecary)
(ecstasy)
(empty)
(balance)
(desire)
desire for balance
desire for Woman ness.
Womb…Man…Nest…
more or less
I don’t know
let me pause for a moment between
breaths………………….
All That Glitters Is Not Gold
it is all just bullshit anyway.....

lol Balance is the mantra between me and one of my close friends… when we get frustrated we simply look at each other and say “Balance” and we understand… you must be a kindred heart.. because her and I were going through the same thing and we managed to keep balance and a great friendship has blossomed… life is so interesting some times

I love the wordplay here. Your style utilizes a lot of it, which I love, but it seems a little more BITING here, conjuring multiple emotions. The painting, too, is one of my favorites so far.

To exist outside the binary construction of gender and sex is certainly not easy. In fact, it can be scary as hell; but, at the same time, it is an illuminated life.

Very interesting! Like the division of words and letters … fragments, and yet unifies. Seperates, yet makes whole. Another feather in your cap, lovely!

I generally don’t read the other’s comments and replies, but I’m glad I scrolled down to this one. Stream-of-consciousness poetry is just as valid as any other. It’s like you’re a receiver for celestial airwaves. I used to create that way, once. It’s funny; I hadn’t thought have that until now. Now my work is more deliberate, measured, rhythmic, and impacting, but there was a raw flow and beauty to its body before. You have that pure emotional channeling. And if it doesn’t make sense to some, well, so be it. The words exist for themselves, and the readers are just welcome passengers!

i love the idea of the words taking people on a journey or even more literally for an emotional ride. As long as it triggers something…i guess even ‘YUK THIS IS DISGUSTING CRAP’ is an intense reaction worthy of note 😉
on one of my art sites i talk about the viewer furnishing the piece with their own story…. it is much the same with writing xxx thanks for reading, fox. have you seen ‘fantastic mr. fox? love that movie
