Exhal'd Lunacy

Thanks for the 'lunaticism' Cassie ;-)

You tripped over my exhale

I plummeted into your anxiety

my tongue was twisted in your head

as I breathe in your vibe of misfit disparity

surrender deafen'd my equilibrium

in your attempt to polish our symmetry

checks & balances fell like insufficient collateral

wound up in a flaming well of a dried wicked asylum

inky promises that were deferred as charged

negotiations postponed without further adieu 

locked and vault'd as another lunaticism lesson learned

Again, I am speechless...it blows my mind that anybody could be this good. I wish I could say more love...you know I love to offer as much input as possible in my reviews, but your spell over me is intensifying...your words are overwhelmingly potent to me...it is criminal that I am published and you are not Mrs.R. You really would have at least one book out there by now if you wanted it...you're the best writer I've ever known, and the best friend I've ever had...xo

Geez are you trying to make me cry Benji, mission accomplished my sweet friend.....xo

[kublakhan27]

My dearest friend, you've always known I speak from the heart, but with you I speak with my mind as well...you're the only person I know with which I can successfully combine the two...you know the difference between my venting and my sincerity, and you're the only one for whom the latter comes naturally for me...and I'm not saying all of this just to make you cry ;) xo

We all have a certain amount of this running through our veins. Some more than others, but regardless it is still there. In all there is there is more than one...it takes a little of everything to makes us who we are. Some like us and some don't...some see it and some fear it and some don't care one way or the other. We are who we are and if that includes some lunacy, then it does.

My sweet friend, no subject it seems can defeat you...you wield an amazing pen, your ink flows so that we may receive your words as gifts...and they are some of my favorites gifts. Crazy, yep I sure am...crazy about your poetry.

Thanks so much Jack, your kind words on my poetry always make my day...

Those "crazy" lessons are the toughest...but essential. Hard enough to deal with ones own lunacy issues....but another persons is just a ride into hell in many ways. Of course theres crazy...and then theres CRAZY!

[Frieda P]
