"Scattered leaved with poetic imprints." My new collection of poetry.
P.(tree)Log

** Images For Use By Upgraded+ Only **

Well, it's now mid- 2019 and this is still the only book I use to house part of my new poetry.
I began using it years ago due to a lack of storage space in my over-700 item WDC portfolio.
I really need to do some spring, summer, fall and winter cleaning.
There are still lots of static items which have never received any mention by other members here.

But that's part of the problem of being a writer ( musician, artist, actor ... ).
I do not know how to network.

Thanks for discovering this link. Please leave a comment.
Bookmark it, please....
This is a writing site and not FarceBrook where it's so easy just to press the button "LIKE."
(( And I am not a fan of the fact that WDC has added it. ))

Not directly in the alba series. Almost its contrary ...


so, love doesn't freeze well, its duvet ices over -- not
that we can't walk in a hefty Canadian blizzard hand (glove)
in hand (gloved) -- but love, honeyed and bouncy, tends
to crack like the chocolate icing on a Magnum, consumed
quickly, like tinder on a poorly stacked bonfire, marshmallows
melting into a gooey slop like adolescent first kisses that still
augment the sensation of heat [i.e. heartthrob (aching but
to avoid attacks)] although later it will take much more
to extinguish the passion, lust and Wunderbar flames that
nurture love, and in (throughout, beyond) love, frozen or
overcooked, two hearts never fully touch, their embrace
is imaginary, fleeting, phantasmagorical, life-sustaining
and every other word-paint poets invent to give sustenance
to that which sustains the unsustainableness of life -- love --
and we pray (how we pray) that it sticks like the first snowfall
before we squander it mushy and stomped upon and we give
anything reasonable not to damn ourselves (the beloved?)
when it turns up white-dulled and mulch-like in a post-office
lost-and-found bin without a proper return-to-sender label
legibly written and pre-stamped, yes love gets forgotten



after e.e. cummings "the snow doesn’t give a soft white damn whom it touches"
