Ouch - - hope that scene with that lady whatsit never happened in reality my friend. Surely nameless is not in love\'s game.

A Cautious Distance
Suresh said:

It\'s always been a cautious distance -
All the poems recited in mind alone

My intentions were never sent out, so, no postcard expected

Those questions remain unanswered until that cautious distance becomes closer.

A Cautious Distance
MendedFences27 said:

They say that normal personal space is four feet. I want to know where? Have they not flown economy? Today\'s youth want to know, \"What the hell is a postcard?\" Oh yeah, and they don\'t call, they text. So yeah, these days one must resist nature and remain aloof. Apparently the danger outweighs the reward. Never speak to a stranger, they may be a serial killer, terrorist, pervert, religious fanatic, or even a politician, Probably better to just stay home and not go to cafes unless you are looking for trouble.
Now your poem calls into question a lot of social norms concerning space, intimacy, technology, and the postal system. Frankly, it\'s just too much bother going anywhere these days. At least, you do not have to consider if you should bring your gun. Anyone for ice cream? - Phil A.

A Cautious Distance
Fay Slimm. said:

A weekend tale of entanglement which threatens order and told with panache........... answer ( but sans the postcard) - - - when in doubt think seriously about that cautious distance and handfuls of promise.

..postcard text...
Dear poet, saw you in the cafe drooling over a really timid looking lady. I thought to myself.... why doesn\'t he send her a love note with a small gift ...\"Roses are red, violets are blue, the ice cream heres lovely, this ones for you\"

Would you, should you, could you?

Suresh said:

In imagination, there is another world
What is aloof here, is abundant there

Thnx for the gasps and sighs

A Single Breath
dusk arising said:

Something mesmerising about a single breast, ... the i realised you had written \'single breath\'.

Most definitely theres this other world and its full of the ones that got away...... pretty people but rotters every one of \'em.

Fay Slimm. said:

The way to an amicable ending is found in this expressively tender verse - - fondness never begrudges the sight and experience of another world....... good read, nicely put and thank you Nev.

dusk arising said:

I most definitely shell have to agree for there was a time when all i could do was clam up.
Now fortunately i am able to reveal the occasional pearl.
As are you with this initially perplexing piece. Now i see it clearly.... i am a bottom dweller... some would say \'an old fart\'.

Fay Slimm. said:

Clever comparison here Nev. to the cling of seashells with our lonely need for special togetherness - toxic or not. Another verse full of artful expression and composed with such finesse........... Fay

Aww, is you an amoeba - \'pond-life\' in some cases? \'Who you calling pond-life?\' you reply. You with your pseudo-thingy. lol.
But we are specks in the universe, it seems. Man is dust, but important dust.
