"To make things a little better somehow / Because I am here and always stay near / Those truths taught me by those who went before / Who watch from the other side of the door"
Transcendental Sonnet #1350: Poetry Lived As a Pilgrimage
I want to live life at the leading edge The tip of the spear and the blade of time My poetry lived as a pilgrimage With spirit animating every rhyme My heartbeat and my breath the meter now
By the grace of God with a few good friends I want to taste all that time will allow Nor worry about means nor hurry ends But be a simple and an honest man
Simply and honestly do what I can To make things a little better somehow Because I am here and always stay near Those truths taught me by those who went before Who watch from the other side of the door
Steven this is a very fine poem, written so eloquently and with a desire to do all that you can that time will allow. Great write Steven. May the Lord Jesus bless you, and be with you always, and at your side constantly. With much love in my heart, joy to the world, peace on earth, & ((((((((((MANY SISTERLY HUGGGGSSSS)))))))))), your little den sister, Barbie

You and Freddie Noodles have a Great Day! Every Day!
37 xoox to you and Freddie Noodles from me and my gang.
This is a beautiful as well as intriguing look into the heart and soul of a poet. I liked the other side of the door part...I think we all feel attached to those people.
Take care,

Robin Ouzman Hislop's poetry is certainly in dialogue with some of the key architects of the 'poetics of indeterminacy' – both the Modernist strands represented by the likes of Beckett and Stein, and the postmodernist strands represented, initially,
Contraband Marriage, traveling along the hemline of loving after incarceration, is a love story written in lyric and free form, set in reality with a different ever after.
