Today’s state of mind
is not as poetic or earth-shattering
or as wise as yesterday’s.
Perhaps it is softer, subtler
in tune with the crystals
in public bathrooms. I see
everything and that is a bloody
curse. I know. A twenty-four hour
sleep cures nothing. In fact,
it awakens more dread
and sweeps the dark
under the light. I will be
fine, as you always
appear to be. In this
home, at this stop sign,
under the half-moon,
trembling at all these
diseases that eat up
my daily blessings.
I will throw words
around, too fucking bad.
Read me or not.
Love me or not.
I will not die
but it has changed me
and my hands,
they are the ones
that suffer
the turmoil
of my soul.
You go on
and build your
beautiful home,
discreet love,
Past transgressions
and future bomb attacks.
I have to keep up
with these appointments
cure myself
see you
in my Reiki sessions,
I whither with some kind
of grace.
As long as I have my memory
and the rest
could eat me up inside.
It’s all crystal clear
needs polishing
to claim
the prize.
Bring your magic.

I stop writing so I can do more reading. You slay me. Now I’m a fan of Monsters and Men too.
Heard them live from my hotel last night. Thank you for coming back~i never stop reading. Anything good?
That is fantastic! After the song you selected finished I clicked on a YouTube link that played about ten of their songs. I listened to that as I made my way through WP. Anything Good! Absolutely! besides the 5 books I find myself reading at the same time, your poetry is stellar. There are so many talented people like yourself that I find myself using my very limited free time reading blogs. I stay perpetually behind but those moments I get back are the best! I’m infrequent but always a devoted follower. 😀
Thank you for reading! I know how busy our lives get and I love to read as well and log off to remain sane! So just to let you know I appreciate your visits and glad to spread the joy of music thar touches my soul. 🙂
All my pleasure, Chrissy! 🙂
beautiful DG-you shine
