parrarell paths, experiencing same things yet in different places

Never easy. But your poetry adds life to diverging paths.

looking back, who knows what it means. not even sure what I mean, but this is good. D.

Very beautiful and creative
love and peace

Jude,

This speaks to and from the innermost psyche, carrying
triggers of the highly evocative nature!
This is my favorite stanza (I lingered in its space for a while
before I commented)...
"The cul-de-sac of our once proficient dreams
Now lay before us
As if we were on the edge of the earth"

A stimulating write Robert. Not only to the imagination but to the soul as well.
We all need acceptance, whether we are willing to admit it or not.
As always a grand write from your pen Sir.

Lisa

Ah, acceptance, now that's the tough one...
A pleasure, as always, Sir Ace. Love the way you phrase and amaze.
Best,
Carolyn

Hot Romantic You Write!

Merging into separate goals
Becoming one in diversity

Marvelous, Robert!

Robert, within your reads lay a whole world of creative splendor. You are indeed a living poem in progress.

Allen

Ace, never let it be said that you ever disappoint the creativity that was entrusted to you by the Almighty Muse of the Universe. The first like was a bungee jump of titilated dreams come true, and the last line sways the gentle cords of memoir so gently, wishing that life didn't have to get in the way of things that could have been in one's grasp.

blessin's to you,

You have truly defined the word "magnetism" with this write, Robert. No matter the differences of life, we are drawn to certain people and there is nothing we can do to stop what was always meant to be. Sometimes logic will tell us that there is so much wrong with the coupling but our heart and soul force us to jump headlong into the relationship. Your images are wonderful and your use of language so very profound. I like this...I guess it must appeal to my "odd" side as Nordette put it. Whatever side, in my opinion, this is awesome poetry.
Take care,
Sherry

Backward blood must be like tired blood.

Ron

Its amazing how our preception changes as events unfold and we become more aware. This is a fantastic write.

I'm with Nordette on this...then again I am odd lol. Excellent write Jude.

Paul:-}

I get backward blood. But that's caused by a valve defect in my heart.

I think Kate has said it all.

LOL . Nordette..

On one hand, this is heartbreaking. But on the other, it is a blessing because it just wasn't meant to be. You always write such rich, meaty, secret, spiritual, revealing, intensley emotional words.

Excellent write!
~Carole

The last line says it all, we need differences
I think. Great write!

One source/differant paths. Each must follow their own path. Wise is the man who understands this...

Well, this is somewhat of a Big Bang write, Jude! Or rather, a Creationist's one... this has the very breathe of life in it and the energy teeming through that hotly flowing blood is like a lava-flow as it bubbles along... I'm with Nordette; it's kinda hot and "yeasty" (sorry, have got yeast on the brain today, so to speak!) In fact, I think it gives me vertigo! This degree of intensity that is so very visceral brings you to the height, perhaps, of your poetic prowess and takes us all along for the ride: passion obviously becomes you! Love the concepts of "Becoming one in diversity... Our blood Transfusing from the source of life's multiplicity"; life around you is never boring, Jude, that's for sure! Don't know about old Walt's "Body Electric", but the hive is certainly alive and electric, buzzing around these Leaves of Grass!:)) TY Kate xx

I think Jay had the perfect answer!!

Therefore I will ditto him!!

Love Tinka

Merging into separate goals
becoming one in diversity...
Yes one has to accept the unacceptable.

"Merging into separate goals
Becoming one in diversity"

Potent dichotomies. I'd like to hear you read this one.

Merging into separate goals
Becoming one in diversity

Our blood
Transfusing from the source of life’s multiplicity

Just one word needed....PROFOUND!!!!!

Guess I'm odd. I find this sexy.

Exceptional verses here filled with a committment to passion unequaled. As always you not only cature your subject you retrain it to obey.

Felix

Much to chew on here.
A fine piece

Best wishes

An excellent esoteric poem full of intrigue and what sounds like an acceptance of a situation you have finally come to terms with.I wish you the best with it...Life certainly is full of multiplicity!

Alrisha

Jude,

I'd love to know who this is about. Spacially sound. I love the traffic references that flirt with the notion of predestiny.

Peace in all things,

Backward blood, hmm.

Worthy of further study, Uncommonly descriptive.

Enjoyed it very much.
Mark

excellence :) (as always)
