As the title suggests I have decided to re-jig the whole NaPoWriMo thing to be more accommodating to my own demands and desires, so sue me, but this is a personal blog after all. I’m just exercising my artistic rights 😛 I started the month in earnest with the poetry, intending to see each day […]
Going Home – Day 11 – NaPoWriMo 2014 (MPoWriMo)
I’m so excited To be flying home, To be with One Of the ones I love; To feel his kiss Upon my face, And his fingers Clasping mine. I’m almost there, Once again, An echo of Forever after. I’ve waited years, What’s one more day, To see my man anew? […]
Quiet Song – Day 10 – NaPoWriMo 2014 (MPoWriMo)
The world I see is full Of colour, of quiet shades Of iridescent noise, Shimmering like the Light on the lake, Making the winter Glow with amber delight. Turquoise reflections, Mirroring the flying sky, And the flame-red Cardinals that Simmer and dart Between silvered branches, Encased in ice, Melting thinly upon The path below. The […]
Walk, Don’t Walk – Day 9 – NaPoWriMo 2014 (MPoWriMo)
Walk, don’t walk, Don’t ask me, I’m just passing by. I’m minding my business, Thinking of nothing, Absorbing the tones of the street. Then you come along, And my lens re-awakens, A moment where I stand quiet. Quick as a flash I point and I shoot, Before you can even react. We share a […]
La Duenda – Day 8 – NaPoWriMo 2014 (MPoWriMo)
Do not knock upon my door! Do not call me by my name! Do you not understand, That I will not leave? This is my home, My soul and all that I am. Go and find your own, For it is you that do not belong. I am Granada; The grain of blood […]
Endurance – Day 7 – NaPoWriMo 2014 (MPoWriMo)
Truth is rarely understood; For all the kicking and screaming we do, It is still there. If but for a moment we could stop our rage, An avalanche of emotions, And oceans of tears would follow, Laying bare the lands of our soul, Allowing purity to blossom; And glimpsing for a moment with our […]
Incandescent – Day 6 – NaPoWriMo 2014 (MPoWriMo)
I’m tired and incandescent, Only half here, barely present. I savour the taste of chocolate on my tongue, Trying to speed those connections With the rush of sugar that cracks open My heavy awareness. Consciousness Thick with last night’s travels, Misdeeds, and losses. Memories Relived, and desired to be forgotten. But their taste […]
Muro – Day 5 – NaPoWriMo 2014 (MPoWriMo)
I place my fingers in-between the cracks of your walls, Paying attention to the crumbling stone, The silence that greets my touch. So much past, So many idle conversations had right here; Exhalations and tribulations spoken Like rising smoke, curling around the yellow Light of your singular lamp. Beneath your Watchful eye; you, listening […]
Woman – Day 4 – NaPoWriMo 2014 (MPoWriMo)
Have you seen this woman today? She makes me smile, cry a little, She blows me away. She takes my words And weaves them into silken strands, Fine and eloquent and full of poetry. Lyrical treacle running down my spine, Coating my every sensation with pleasured pain. This woman I love, She makes me […]
Octopus – MPoWriMo – Day 3
Love is a many tentacled octopus That crawls out of the sea. From the deepest shores of deep blue wild, To consume you whole, And pull you under the velvet dark Of its salt stained folds. To hold you still, against the Rhythm of its wake, As it ebbs and flows over once jagged rocks, […]
