All those beautiful endorphins released to make \"that afterwards feeling\" are quite similar to what I feel now after reading your poem. Great job, N!

I measure it in blinks
makes it easier to understand
how I time-travelled
from one to the next
forgetting where all the Time went
in-between...
still that great Scottish poem being sang
by the world, while holding hands
will never get old
(to me, at least)

sadly
no, first one\'s are tepid cuts
because we hadn\'t learnt to fall
deep,
yet
but hey, later we learn
that barbies just like ken\'s
are to be played with, only
and eventually
we find ourselves a real person
to hope with...
(so graphic!
i think there\'s a horror director
trapped inside you
waiting for the right timing....
do you have a brother?
forgive me for being a little jealous
that Hyung, is more than a word to me
lol)
an energetic write this one...
Halloween themed one could suggest..
but always depth, wise Poet
always something to peel back
and appreciate
with all your poems!

Why Else Wish Him So Blind
L. B. Mek said:

ermm one of your more
ermm \'literal\' poems my friend
that imbues more emotionality
than any words could, clever
(but hey
it could have just been
a Blighty bank holiday
since, you know
how we love our screws
and hammers, and making a mess
on those Monday\'s
we\'re left having a staring match
with Time and our home..)
too much comfort
always
a prerequisite, trait
of all
two-timing morons!
(there is no gun
to your fckn head
save your partner
from needles heartache
wait, one fckn night
have a conversation
say your goodbyes
then be all the randy rabbit
you want...)
morons! I\'ll never get it
ever
there is no why to it
(unless they\'re
emotionally pushed in-to it
by their own partner\'s actions
like a retaliation thing
but that\'s not \'cheating\' per say
that\'s just a release of wrath..)
..
I got carried away again Hyung
forgive me

Bobby O said:

Love the poem love the honest admittance. As an aside , the only English girl I dated was all excited to make me breakfast and it ended up being just beans and toast and eggs and I started looking around waiting for the what I thought was a certain to come punchline and when noticed her feelings got hurt and I was forever denied more English
β€œDessert”!

A good write N, but as for me -
I never even get the \'before\' feeling with KP. And as for any bodily contact with her - bleeuurggh! Well, would we kiss a trout?! lol.

Someone once said, I think it was me, that, \"The only good year is the one in Yearning,\" for it gives tomorrow a reason to exist.
Your poem says, \"The making,\" and \"The length of a single year mean nothing.\" This is true as it is with all of time, what you do with it is all that matters. Loved this one. - Phil A.

No, it means nothing
or is it
Yes, it means nothing

If I can’t even phrase it
It must mean NOTHING

Every breath, every touch, all the kisses and the hugs!! Hard times, troubles, work and all...a lapse in time, an hour lost! The length means nothing...so we\'re told....but every moment....IS gold!! 😊😊😊 Just saying! πŸ’œπŸ’œπŸ’œπŸ’œπŸ’œ

MendedFences27 said:

Was this before or after the visit to your local. Either way a topiary of \"Barbie\" never seems a good idea. Maybe if you could salvage the important parts and cover the rest with \"very cool pink clothing\" it might just be passable.
Why would you even attempt such a zany venture? Oh well, it made for a very humorous poem. - Phil A.
P.S. - At first, I envisioned a disaster of the proportions in Frost\'s \"Out, Out.\" thank God no one was injured. Or maybe it was just an episode of \"Only Fools and Horses.\"

Bobby O said:

So true. I used to play tournament Table Tennis and on occasion find played that claimed to have never lost. I knew immediately they had no chance to beat me because if they didn’t respect the game enough to search out and find their β€œlevel” then they preferred the comfort of fiction

Bobby O said:

I did smile at the finish and really like how equal and aligned it placed Topiary and Barbie. Other than you and the catalyst that mixes in your mind that logical equanimity would be left forever undiscovered.

All I can say is \"What goes around...comes around\", and it sounds like the offending party is more than deserving. Take care dear friend, you deserve way better!

If one was blind, they could feel more about a person than they could while sighted. A blind person hears more and, honestly, they feel more in the spoken word.
Loved your poem. It was honest and to the point. - Phil A.
