without a compass
frozen and rocking

soaring and forgotten
with the door locked
storms blow in

slipped skin hanging

the way I go
was not

There is an eeriness about this piece
which demands to be noted
a depth which supercedes any stint of ignorance
the mysic is overwhelming and
I just really feel the power of this passage
it' good, it's bad ,it's ugly, it's real
honestly an honor to read

I must say the combination of darkness and loneliness is effective to show that one cannot always go ones own way peacefully. Thank you for sharing,

Dearest ming, greetings & salutations :)

How I do marvel at your truly insightful & always briliant endeavors into such vast chambers as the human condition & any referencing, thereof. Your words capture & lay bare. As a result, any who take them in, deliberate & can attest, are soul-ly endowed & transformed in indistinguishable yet undeniable measure.

Even now, our base interactions & the ability to carry on the crudest of behaviors on a societal level, have & do continually leave me questioning this proving ground that we accept as life. Both in our modern-day culture & in individual inter-action, somehow, as a whole, we have, sorely, missed the mark.

As for those of us (myself, included) who have never attained one iota of normalcy. . . those who have been an everlasting bane to the insidious, cultural encroachment so carefully laid out by our forefathers. . . the ones being manipulated into an unrecognizable slant until the point of singularity. . . we, who exist in an underlying current of subterfuge, the results of which directly or indirectly cause us to appear askew & mal-adjusted. . . all the vibration of souls not lost to this illusion, (atleast). . .

I say endless power to soaring & forgotten. . . steadfast strength to traverse a path much less taken. . . truth that lies beyond the beauty in being truly & undeniably authentic. . . progressive peace behind the lambent. . . & eternal grace under sullen trepidation & the extreme pressures of the fold.

You. . . oh sower of seeds. . . BRAVO!

I slip. . . you slip. . . we slip. . .

Yours truly
elle :)
