All the world is a stage of some sort… some are private and some are public… Your words have meaning because you wrote them and they have value for you… Your porpoise for this journal is what you get from it… knot what others get from reading it… I fell upon your entry and was intrigued by what you wrote… I may return or I may never… two ships passing in the knight… The use of any word has value be it fuck or shit or just the… if it helps use it… and I agree all men are pigs… some are nice pigs butt they are all pigs… Knowing ones own moods by the swing of what one wears and where they leave it means you are aware of where you are and that is positive… of course I am an optimist so I can find positive influences any where at all…
Words tend to flow… they pop in and out… they swirl about me in endless bands of interest… One can read what I write and knot find a strand of reality or a band of truth to any set of words I place before them… In the still nest of the knight when all is gentle and wavering before the sun rises in the eastern sky… a message is transmitted from one soul to another in the veil between dark and light… The image is clear for one split second of time… A duel life time of changes works its magic… I am both a realist and a dreamer… an explorer and a conservative thinker… When in the throes of doubt some thing is better then the no thing… that no thing always seems to get one in more deeper then the some thing else they could have done… To decided one has to have options they can see before them… A race involves at least one… for time is the one element of life we are all racing with… To have time in your arms is a delight filled wonder… To stop time and stay within a moment is another image that transforms reality… One picture takes my breath away and another puts in back… One child was a wonder three are the sources that pull the soul in all directions at one time… I have been lost and found and left for lost in rapid succession… Hiding behind the veil of the sun is the knight in the shadows of the day he sleeps to watch over you when the dark nest once more descends upon the realm of your reality… Aware I am of the others who sit with me… aware I am of the guardian that taps at my shoulder to alter my ego and go another way to find a home… to create a home… to build a home… to be a home… to open my home to those who need the place to stay…
We can all use some one to watch over us… There is comfort in God’s word… in the word of man held to that highest of ideas… A some one to watch over me… a person… a physical some one that I can turn to that will aid me in that wonder… We all wish to feel that comfort of arms wrapped about us… warming us and speaking silently that all is as it should be and that we are safe here in this delight… Brothers in arms… Sisters in thought… a generation together with one thought in mind… A scattered thought of two or three or four or more… Time is a reality of Fate and Destiny… Never enough time to grasp all the possibilities and opportunities when they knock, knock, knock… louder each time…
Each piece of the picture arrives in black and white… a colorless image of what this present is… As we live inside that image we color it with our being… We add the life to it one stroke at a time… one bit of dye here or there and suddenly what was dull shimmers with a new energy that comes from the colors of our world illuminating the colors of another’s world… The mixing of each allows us to discover new delights… new shades of images… As the day lingers into knight we get to hang those images before us and remember this present as a time when we learned to color… when we learned to dance… when we learned to add spice to a moment by the magic of our imagination that added a little more here or there… and when the day turns to the next and a new canvas appears before us we are confident that we can color that one with just as much wonder as we have managed with the ones before…
One step forward… a couple of steps back to observe the effects… What we say strikes a chord if we allow for it… A long time is a minute when one has lost patience and is searching for them… A short time is the time between long times… pleasant times travel quickly while longer times are in between those pleasurable times… What we anticipate is what we get to have… Simple rules are the best and while black and white are not the only colors in the rainbow there is simplicity in seeing the world that way every once in a while…
Placed at a fork in the road two souls decide… one goes to the right and the other left of that right… for a time those paths seem to mimic one another rolling over hills and into trees one close to the other… then as if by magic one is gone… lost in a seconds time to the sight of the other… a silence surrounds you and permeates your words… a longing for some one is heard in your writings in your voice… you call out and there is no answer but you were just there and now you are gone missing… How can one miss place some thing so valuable? A retreat to the outer limits of ones imagination begins to conjure up images best left in the hallows of ones mind… Cast adrift the soul will find a way to the heart… and let them go for it is in the search that they will find what they are looking for… even when they donut realize they have it all along… Some thing is learned and some thing is gained with every step along another path… Some times the thought of good bye is to difficult so one says fare the well… of until we meet once more… or until the Gods deem it reasonable that we should stop long enough to listen… When the forks meet once more at some cross road farther on down the line different persons emerge from the grove exchanging glances… The anticipation of that time having welled up inside both bursts… explodes with emotions… let the knight be and the angel be and all the world stands in the still nest of a moment in time left perfect… what more need to written… spoken or debated… a little time with time is all… a walk about… time to create to play to create a reality…
We talked… we listened and we held one another as close as humanly possible and for that split second in time I was with you… Today my magic rests within your heart… with each breath you take… with each step you move you will feel my presence with you… I will stay with you in the realm of the other side until you sleep… I will walk with you this day and all the days you are away from me until once more you return… In a real sense I am with you always… The distance that time places between us has never faded the spirit… You are the inspiration for my words and while you may go off in another direction or search for some thing more… I am still with you… I am still beside you… I am still inside you… using the magic we share as a means to find you peace… The peace you search for… You are a magical loving creature you deserve the best that living can offer to you… You need only to believe you are worth the time and you are… you are worth every minute, every second, every hour to share…
One day soon after as I laid down stripped of my emotions… physically exhausted from the thoughts that wandered within my mind… I spoke your name out loud and you entered my heart and sat with me… held me close and let me know that it was okay… that night you stayed with me… holding me to you so that I could sleep a perfect sleep… Such a gift I have attempted many times to return… Maybe tonight before you close your eyes you could think of me and my spirit will come to you… to hold you close and cradle you while you sleep that perfect sleep… It is my gift this day to you…
While walking about take time to listen… all that is seen is not heard unless we truly listen for the sounds that are there before us now rises a glimpse of what we miss when we traverse the natural boundaries engulfed in our own minds… A mind field of traps voids barriers to sounds that are filtered out for us as we are absorbed within… Layers upon layers of sounds exist if we open our ears as well as our minds to them… The hidden meaning reveals itself… to the watch full ear…
Time suddenly took me away from the focus of my attention… distraction was the lure that dangled before my eyes… gone in an instant… only to return to the good byes that must come from feeling left… Such is the way here lately as I play at doing what I do… it is work and work is trying… to get in the way of my fun… succeeded it did and so I go off and now when I returned there was silence on the other side of the madness that is my window of opportunity… Caught in the act… pants down… what can one say…
A quest… an adventure into the day… once we roam with the knights we are destined to question the air or are we? To ask is to find out… Curiosity is a sign that you are about to learn… confusion is the first place to start being curious… A choice is a decision to go or to stay… a cross road or fork demands a decision of one becomes stuck in the middle and will be run over by the advancing horde… Anyone who has experienced NYC on a normal business day will know the truth to that… Move or be moved… press on or be pressed on… it is a choice… of course all choices are ours… if we choose to make them ours… A smile last a life time… a hug is remembered for its warmth… a touch across open space is felt in another’s heart long after… Sentiment is what carries one from now to then and back again… It is a choice however to smile and to live…
One gets to have what one creates… what we grant we are blessed with in return… they are equal and opposite distributed in threes… for each good three are returned equal to that one… and so on down the line… One wish granted yields three… one wonder opened yields three more… A very unequal process…
Share what you wish… a single piece is some times worth more then the whole it comes from… One chance is taken… one word exchanged over a space… Time hinders the process… space allows for a restlessness… dreams are what they pretend they are… words are the only means of saying but they are limited… while the heart speaks volumes… what is shared is a glimpse of another’s place in time… What is the dream exactly? What does one wonder about? The quest for a porpoise mostly occupies the mind after a while the time here is limited by our time here… We are products of our own making us limited in view unless we open our minds to the other places in witch the see is not in the sight but in the heart of the matter…
Crisp is the air that brings tidings of the morning… cool to the skin it refreshes the soul as it lulls the earth to sleep… A tree turns… slowly at first and then in rapid succession… We fold our tents… we bring in our hearth… we occupy the mind with the warmth of the fire… a good wine… a meal and a story to read or write… Sentiment creeps in and wonders aloud… A dream is a wish your heart makes… reality is a collective dream…
Another thought sparked my imagination… another wisp of wonder floated past my mind… I wonder if… started to rumble inside me… I wonder if… my words touch you the way they touch me… I wonder if they spark the flame inside you now the way they warm my hands as I write… I wonder if you feel each word as I do when I write to you… I suspect not for it is an addiction for me… and you are much too wonderful to suffer from such an affliction… that is a lot being an inspiration and it does take its toll… time to step back from it all and allow the wonder to walk a bit and time to let the wonder in and to let the wonder know they are what they are and they are appreciated for who they are and loved for who they are… Magic is the blending of wishes to create another wish… and like magic’s spark not only those that use it but those that it touches… and I have been touched by a unique and power filled magic and I will never be the same again…
A word dropped in edge wise and stuck a bit in the door jammed it was with that kind of jam that tastes so sweet… it was worthy of a lick or two or a sampling or as he wood say a smackeral or two for the road was long before me and there are miles to go before I fall to sleep… perchance to dream… and if I dream when I sleep I know it shall be a wondrous dream… all dreams to me are wondrous for my mind holds the images of those I wonder about close and then they talk to me whilst I am away on the other side of my own mad nest walking the other earth in search of a good conversation to start or to stop… to just sit with some one and listen to life pass me by and bye… The word held the door way open jammed with tasty morsels to savor as we spoke on into the day for my night was their day and my day their night and the cycle rolls on some how we manage to know… and when it is time we reach out and touch as we say our fare the wells and until the morrow brings us once more to thee… a wee bit of poetic injustice we practice in our imagination… that word that jammed the door was hello…
Many times we skip off to some place… lost in our own wondering… we drop everything to run and from that we scatter our thoughts… we unleash our minds to investigate the ups the downs the very pinnacle of our being and we feel it in our hearts… We are at last as free as the child within us… I am old and in the way of things… Yet I sense a need to hide away… A long course is taken… one filled with challenges… We need only see them for what they are… The music rings… the imagination runs… and we are free…
Gone for a run in the wilds of my own imagination… I some times wander the high ways the bye ways the avenues of the Americas in search of the past… I find wondrous things back there in the recesses of my imagination that explain very clearly the place I am today… A whole or void exists when we fail to bridge a gap in time… Distance is knot what it seems it is an illusion… for all exists in the same space… in the same time… in the same moment… What is there is here and the reverse is also true… We are not separate we are the same… The one constant thread of humanity…
A share word carries one for a time… a shared emotion carries one to the next… a shared spirit carries one for a life time… You can knot abandon me for I will never abandon you… Even when I am hurt by the slings the arrows of indifference or what I sense to be indifference I will not abandon you… There will be times that I will hide myself from you for the pain is so great… the ouch so big that I am unable to bear it… Tears are shared… tears of joy… tears of a sorrow that express the hurt that is deep inside ones being… I can wipe the tears and I can sit while the joy spreads about you… I am knot alone ever as long as your spirit lives inside me… I share that one nest with you alone… I shall always find a paradise on this earth as long as we share that witch we do…
Freedom is given each day… to be free… to be unchained… unshackled… to be apart from the peace that is within me… I have that freedom and I have that choice… I have that wonder that floats inside me… I am as free as the birds that soar with the winds…
A litany of words placed one after the other… a string of laughter herded in ambiguous directions all at one time in the same instance the sounds filter in tickling ones soul with the music of the night… the day… the delight… In side the mixture spills forth a glow that wanders from one soul to the next infiltrating them with an inspiration to search for the mores of life… A little more desire… a little more lust… a little more passion… a little more of feeling a little better now each day and starting a little bit higher on the morrow’s wing… a higher high to swing from… to glance out from… to be the party of the first part… the words cling to one another and they spread laughter and joy and a sense of belonging to a larger circle of nomads… the creators of small miracles called laughter… smiles appear and they remind once more that there is more to the mixture then meets with the eye…
The door closes on one being… a name is all… I existed here all along… What of this new me that eludes definition? Is it the same nest that it was or a different one that holds a different potential? The remains will be seen over time… An illusion life has become… a high degree of chilling desire has wrapped its grip about me… What was once is forever now… a call… a whisper… a grasp of ones being… the cold does chill to the bone… it does do that… it also reminds one of the change… from life to dormancy… the circle of life completing its turn… the cycle of being going one more around… as there is always room for one more… there is always time for a ride on the wheel… a turn taken… it is time to get off the center and on to the part that turns, turns, turns…
