My First Kiss

I was two or three years old

in South Africa

with my  mom

at the seaside somewhere

I went up to this little girl

this beautiful little baby

she had chocolate coloured skin

and hair that felt like a sheeps fur

I touched her head

I looked into her eyes

and

and I kissed her

because

she was the most beautiful thing

I had ever seen.

Space~ two places at once

I was there...

with you...

in space

you were...

looking at the world below

and

while you were there..

I was here..on earth

laying on the beach

somewhere in Liguria

I slept near the sea

on the rocks

listening to the waves

looking at the stars

and I said to you "hello"

in my mind

looking at the stars.

looking at you looking at  "us"....

I said " hello" ...

and I imagined myself to be

where you could have been...

and I asked

"is there anybody out there"..

and the thought echoed into eternity....

"is there anybody out... out.... out ...

there... there ...there ...there..."

Does space feel empty and cold like many people imagine it to feel like?

or does it feel full of feeling and emotion? I wonder...what it feels like to be in space...

I wonder...

Tatiana’s letter (direct translation)

Translation from “Evgenii Onegin” by  A.S. Pushkin

MS 2.20.16

(This character was barely 16 years old when she wrote and sent it :-))

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I write to you – what else is there?

What more is there for me to say?

And now, I know – it is your power to punish me

With scorn and hate…

But your compassion and true self,

Will make you save me from this fate….

 

I did not plan to overwhelm you..

I always step aside, observe…

 

I would have never said a word if there was a chance, a glimmer of you approaching our abode..

Not every day but maybe once….  a week a month or just sometimes… some regular rotation visits…

.. To hear your voice to see you speak to listen to your thoughts and logic,

To share a word, and then just think and dream of what you could have said next time you are in…

 

Sweet dreams of our next encounter, your thoughts your hopes, but ….. not a chance…

I’ve heard that you preferred a solace -

There was no interest in romance.

They say you’re bored with our sort.

So simple, and naïve, and happy.

We opened wide our doors to you…

Sophistication and high matters

Are not our strongest suit, that’s true…

If that’s the case, why had it happened?

Why ever have you come to us?

I would have been so calm and happy without you in our lives.

Eventually, I would have gotten married

And knew no torment and no fright

 Of love and hope, and delight…

In time I’d been content as mother, as friend, and capable consult..

I would’ve gone on and I’d been happy and sure of duty in one’s life….

It pains to think, it’s quite unreal to picture me with someone else..

For you’re the only one who matters - the core of life the light of day..

I’d give my soul, my heart, my being for you to keep and use at will..

I am certain it was predetermined

It was a plan from up above

It’s in my gut, resolve, and soul;

It is my focus and my might.

My life till now was just rehearsal

So I could meet you, talk to you.

I loved you long before I met you

I do so now,

I always will.

That’s it…

It’s out there now..

It has been said…

Enough, I’ll stop.

I have to send the way it’s written…

Right now….

No proofread and no sort…

One thing…

Please let me know somehow..

Perhaps a sign or just a thought..

Do you feel different or nothing?

Am I confused or is it right?

I am so afraid, it is so unreal..

But there’s no any other way..

 

My only courage is your honor

My only hope is your heart….

Quietstorm

Oh silent storm 

Let the rain past and thunder rumble

Quiet wind thats soft and humble

Let your voice be your beacon

and the love that you're seeking

Sing and sing the praises of pain and paradise

subtle sweet voice with a delicate rise

let go of the thunder 

and smile and just wonder

of the tomorrow 

today 

and forever laughter...

Sail to the moon

Thoughtstorm

Feeling nervous, anxious, frightened,

worried, on edge?

Hearing voices--

and they can all hear your thoughts,

and you can hear theirs too--

Feeling detached or distant from yourself,

not knowing who you really are

or what you want out of life,

Not feeling close to other people

Feeling down, depressed, or hopeless,

Sleeping less than usual,

more risky things,

aches and pains,

valium and glue

//(thoughts strung together while working... phrases pulled from the DSM5 Cross Cutting Symptoms Checklist that seemed like they should be a poem)  

_________________

Stop thinking so much! It's making your head hurt and making it hard to sleep. Breathe in and out again. The world won't fall apart while you close your eyes. Breathe in and out again. Feel the spray of the fountain, the sun on your arms; make eye contact with every stranger that walks past. Imagine what their lives must be like—no, stop. Focus on not focusing on anything. Stop thinking so much!

How can I stop thinking when I have the potential to save the world? How can I go to sleep when I have the power to save lives, or—by inaction—to forsake them? How can I rest when I feel the weight of the world on my shoulders? How can I pass this burden on to anyone else, knowing just how heavy it is? No, I'm fine, really; no, I don't need to sleep; no, it's quite alright, I'd love to help, no problem really.

__________

42 dollars in my bank account--

I really should know better by now

and I don't know what all this fuss is about,

why my mind always swirls up with doubt,

why I only hear in whispers or shouts

but am deaf to anything in between.

And I don't know how to turn down the noise,

how to weather the storm with grace and poise,

and I guess it just comes down to making a choice

but again and again I just self-destroy--

That's enough!

time traveler

It's all so tired,

all so familiar

I find myself 

in the same hole again

Different day and

different signals

but I feel it tugging

again and again and

again and again and

again I am falling,

slip through a portal,

this one's a wormhole

that bends air and space.

I've said it once but

I'll say it once more--

It's hard to find meaning

in time or in place.

Mother fucker of the moment.

DO YOU WANT TO READ SOMETHING FUNNY?
Did you hear about the news in Mexico? all the violence against teachers in Oaxaca, the clash of federal police against them, death and rape? The educational reform turns public education into private schools all around the country, no more free books, or infrastructure, no more dignity for the teachers, everything has to be payed by parents.
The actual secretary of the department of education (SEP in spanish) Aurelio Nuño, STUDIED IN OXFORD. he graduated with the thesis “Building a National State ‘without’ taxation: the Political Consequences of the Fiscal Evolution in Mexico after the Armed Revolution, 1920-1930.”

Poemlets

You catch more flies with honey--

well, honey's all I know,

and these flies keep buzzing 'round me

every which way that I go.

Come on in and stay awhile,

I'd like to know your mind

'cause all I've got is this one

and it's getting awful tired.

----

When all you see around you

is a mess of hurt and pain,

you know the flood is coming

and they're predicting rain,

you don't know how to get up 

out of bed again today,

I say, I know just how you feel--

it's shit, isn't it?

I know you won't believe me,

I know it's hard to see--

the world would make more sense

if it was them vs. you and me,

but to say it so would be to draw 

a false dichotomy

and we wouldn't want to do that now,

wouldn't we?

----

Why build a moat

when we've got a boat

and we'll float, we'll float

across the sea?

Why hide in your bed, 

oh sleepyhead,

when there's so much shit left

that we want to see?

Why complain

when it starts to rain

when you know that we'll

dry off again?

Wipe your tears,

and kiss your fears

goodnight--it's time

to lay them all to rest.

----

Will you praise my relativity

or tell me it's a sin?

My head's the only head

that I remember being in,

so of course my truth is relative,

and so, in truth, is yours,

and that's the only truth I've found

in all "why"s and "wherefore"s.

----

Patience is a virtue

but all I know is vice.

I know I should wait for you,

I know I should be nice.

I never learned to whistle,

I never learned to try;

I don't want to be ordinary,

never want to die!

Why does this melancholy

never go away? 

Doesn't seem to matter much

what I do or say.

I have to keep on moving or

I grind right to a stop--

have to keep on moving 'til

my body finally drops.

Jolt

MS 3.20.16.

Did not have the money,

Did not have the time..

Really did not care if I lived or died.

Overwhelming darkness with no light ahead,

Was the only beacon that had lain instead.

Truly, when for years, there is no happy reef,

To retreat and breath in positive relief,

You become quite certain

Good will not prevail,

For you feel it deeply in your every cell.

Well, it’s true - nobody will come ‘pick you up’.

No one should be having all your life trued up.

Even if they try it, they will not succeed.

For quite soon and swiftly trash will pile back in…

Go to the mirror or just hit the wall,

Bend down in the corner, stretch out on the floor –

While you’re at it,

Strongly, deep within yourself:

Say assertive, clear:

“Light and nothing else!”

Cause I want to make it – I will do it all,

Everyday as manic, I will move this wall!

I deserve the freedom,

I believe in love,

I will climb the mountain,

I will feel the Life!
