                                             Over And Echoless

                                        Sometimes cornered and
                                        desperate, I search for
                                        death's blessed sleep after
                                        wandering down desolate
                                        roads, convinced only of
                                        deeper darkness ahead.

                                        But, ahh, sometimes I'm
                                        wondering through
                                        sudden fertile valleys, where 
                                        youthful sunshine, playing 
                                        through the ripe pear trees,
                                        dazzle my wind-blown hair 
                                        as I pull you close, grasping
                                        for the universe itself in
                                        the splendid mysteries
                                        of your yielding thighs.

                                        Yes, sometimes we're
                                        cornered, sometimes
                                        soaring. sometimes
                                        neither until all at last is
                                        as over and echoless as
                                        yesterday's fleeting wind.

An existential take on the nature of total bliss--that elusive reality known as nothingness. Sartre would be proud.

All good things and bad do come to an end. Each must be experienced to appreciate the other. Patrick

I like the almost weak resistanceless voice becoming the passionate, grasping intensity. It really works.

I wish I could just hold onto those rare, blessed moments where the world expands and everything is okay. Then I feel trapped, hemmed in. Wanting to escape in to oblivion, change the way I feel. AT ANY COST! Then it passes. The key is to stay centered. I suck at it. Wonderful poetry Ben.

as I pull you close, grasping
for the universe itself in
the splendid mysteries
of your yielding thighs.

I do like very much the way you put this, Ben; and the whole poem. Love and peace to you,

Regis
