i just danced to
the entire 1812 overture
and in doing so
i added two
additional seconds
to the life of
our universe.

i just found them there.
they were idle
and without destiny.

so i blinked my
butterfly eyes
and grabbed them
by their hands
and we together
the three of us
danced beyond infinity.

When power leads man toward arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

you all are quite the
humble bunch.

i emotionally
integrate delusion,
confidence, and insecurity.

the ladies here
have a crush on me.

and some of the dudes.

plus im a veritable genius.
i recently paid off my house.
you wanna know how?

i applied to the state
for a graveyard permit
and now my front yard
sports headstones.

the state paid me
to use my land
and i charge kin-to-the-dead
a nominal fee.

my resident ghost
gave me the idea.

the curb appeal suffered a bit,
but the dirt
is alive.

Nice when you're young, healthy and arrogant. Not so good, when you're old, sick and humble.

i am invenerable

So the opposite of "venerable"?

ven·er·a·ble
ˈven(ə)rəb(ə)l/
adjective
accorded a great deal of respect, especially because of age, wisdom, or character.

Freudian slip? ;)

invenerable, meaning unable to receive love

in this case due to head up ass

you got it backwards, dog

oh, but you can't get it, forwards or back words

but you're right

i'm all humbled by your arrogance your assertion your confidence your decision

so why ARE we infeebier types here?

weave, bob, dodge, hem, and do a little haw-ing, too, and tell it like it is

My old 'Top' once told me the difference between arrogance and confidence was having the ability to back it up.

from sea level over Mojave
across the Colorado Plateau
and above the Great Divide
come flittering and fluttering
to me

magnificent breasts and smiles and tanned freckles
the glowing eyes and kind words, with desire but no need,
of a woman that defined lust for me a
decade and a half ago, to whom I have never
spoken, with whom I've not embraced

summer will be good.

On a smoky evening in August 2015.

Still are ok to look good,
