Simple Pleasures

Since I have finished my marathon on the 30/30 thread I'm not sure where to post this. I figure here is as good as any, and better than most.


Simple Pleasures


Sometimes life gifts
with simple pleasures
a pleasing scent
on a wisp of air
a smile from someone
you didn't know was there
a word or gesture
embracing, invitation
recognition, acceptance
touch unexpected.

Sometimes life gifts
with simple pleasures
a caress in the dark
or light
a kiss from someone
you weren't sure cared
a conversation
deep
into the night.

Sometimes life gifts
with simple pleasures
a glimpse of breast
a flash of leg
an air of confidence
from someone
you have always admired
a gift
granted by life
as a simple surprise.

Accidentally poetic Babelfish translation:
You foretell of the fire
She foretells of the light
 
Faith:

Today I believe
in the white crane standing still
in the pond on highway 59
and in the endless ability
of humans to delude themselves
for good or evil.
At the moment
that's the whole list.

Could you, would

I love to taste


his balls
as tongue trails, lapping around
fingers slowly
flick. Rounding out my spot, to land

and tempt
with mouth mimics
tongue trails, body
dances. Slow, step out, then in
In deep, my digits

dial out
love, with numbered nubs
one, two
then three. Circling
in, down, around
mouth to cock, finger

frolics
tapping out my Morse code
for, I want all of you,
forever ....

well done

yum
 
and there it was
a peaceful (almost perfect) day
blown apart by
two teen brothers

thanks, guys
sigh
 
remember the days
we would sneer
at our mums
when they cheered and they beamed -
a new washing machine?

now my own's broken down
and the laundry's undone
I was told just to wait
until it could come
(the new one)

but a phonecall arrived
and the girl had her say
"there's a slot opened up
we'll deliver
Friday"

now i know history
tells us "girls, swing 'em free"
it's a sign of the times
it's emancipatory -
but I have to admit
now i know how mum felt
and my smile full of glee's
all domestically
fit to split!
 
i seem to be undergoing a new writing phase. i am finding it increasingly difficult to write unless it's live writing with almost no editing afterwards. even thinking about what to write pre writing throws me into confusion.

am i getting lazy, as a writer? it's not a case of not wanting to edit, or feel it through, go slowly, it's more a case of it not working full stop unless i do it this way right now.

i guess it's not worth getting overly concerned about; my ways of writing have frequently altered over the years. i just feel maybe it's a bit lazy and ...


shut up, butty :rolleyes:
 
jus write ...

Over the years, I've been told, I'm
loud. This coming from men, who
say nothing. words froze
ears deaf,

bodies
swaying. words come
after.

I was raised a good girl, believe it
or not but

no sound, shhhh
someone might hear.

Who?

It's not like I jump any ones bones
in public, for all to see. well,
there has been a time or two, but still
no words? no sound?

Shhhh???

come, taste these greedy
lips, drink
as mouths swirl
bodies melt, heat

erupts -

for a promise of more.
a throw down.

throw down,
of worlds clashing
clinging - to more
more

more! but
no sound?

your delusional, if
that's possible ...
