Take er Easy!

“Our individuality is all, all, that we have. There are those who barter it for security, those who repress it for what they believe is the betterment of the whole society, but blessed in the twinkle of the morning star is the one who nurtures it and rides it in, in grace and love and wit, from peculiar station to peculiar station along life's bittersweet route.” -Tom Robbins, Jitterbug Perfume

Got to love that square format!

Another one of my messy-any-kid-can-do-that style of abstract art pieces.  Want to say it's about 10"x10".

I like faces. Faces, faces, faces...

{ Heart In A Diving Bell } by Big Sway

Our love is deeper than the situational

Beyond the trends of the mortal mind

Beyond moments tied in bows of timelines

We are energy of Velcro variety -

A face constructed of distraught yesterdays

& immutably grand futures -

Two needles in a haystack

Flotsam in a field of debris left by hubris

Of a deed as selfish as loving another, wholly

& with no expectations

You are so angelic

With yr derelict youth, scarred

Drinking under bridges with ratty white beards

Running from yr heart

Stained, sullied & deified with love for a dead-man

You were so vacant when I needed you most

My heart was heavy as a glacier under yr monster indifference

But a wiser artist than I saw

That in opinion/truth, I was something more than the status quo

You were never a slut,

You just listened to others too much…

I want to see nothing but yr beautiful face ascending

Past my station

Past my sadness

To a place of complete self-love

A place past me

You don’t need to work for other’s love -

Yr a dynamo that masses bathe in

You love yrself

& I love yr love

So fully

That my heart breaks apart

Every time I think about my death

& the things I’ve let slide

Left unsaid

By the roadside

I’ve been in love with you since we first met

Going around & around

Around

& around

Pretty soon

(1 to 70 years, hitherto…)

I’ll be dead

Pretty soon

So will you…
