Descartes Reborn
L. B. Mek said:

divide conscious from intuition
fraction thought within dreams
multiply feelings by perspective
then calculate
worth, in deliberating what comes after
before we fathom, what\'s needed in our now...
consciousness is a thread, connecting
all that we are, to all we were
and may yet still become..
it\'s etymology, a derivative of humanity\'s zeal
for sharing stories
well then, dear Poet
let\'s live life\'s
worthy of tomorrow\'s story\'s
and let that be understanding enough
for us
(a Great write!
I imagine in another consciousness
sat at a subtle cafe
maybe near Piazza della Signora
in beautiful Florence
we could have a questing conversation
so diversely resplendent
we would make the universe jealous...
lol)

If consciousness dies in the forest, does anyone hear it die? Consciousness is hard to fathom, and almost as hard to spell. Colorful take on the questions.

Descartes Reborn
Kurt Philip Behm said:

Thanks, it was written as a question because how do you know it never dies?

There\'s a difference between fact and belief.

Ok Waleed said:

Assuming that your consciousness is the only consciousness is foolish, consciousness never dies,
it can only continue through all consciousness that is connected… ehh well that’s my take. Good poem

Trailing Regret (+1)
L. B. Mek said:

Amen!
(so true wise Poet
another insightful exposition
of our poetic souls)
we surf the backwash of fate
while dogpaddling
what hope fuelled, brooklets
we\'re afforded in life...

Dear Kurt,
Wow! 🤩 You definitely piqued my interest to know more about Juan Manuel Fangio.

For certain a special and an amazing individual.

Loved the entire poem, especially
“ Chasing defiance
the sweetest
of wine”

Martyrs & Clowns
L. B. Mek said:

\'of legacy we quest
in water\'s, muddied by circumstance
since before, birth\'..
Poesy as our window to questions
that unveil
what Truth, we\'re afforded in life...
A great write!

\"Blessed Be The Meek\"
L. B. Mek said:

Amen!
(\'The meek shall inherit the Earth\'
well then, as like Seamus Heaney
with our snug, QWERTY keys
upon fingertips that dream
let\'s get digging
inking, in search of that most perfect-fit
syllable
to farm our blank pages of poetic
chance
and unearth that good, good
turf, awaiting
cloistered and battered, in our heart\'s...)

The First Daffodil
L. B. Mek said:

Brilliant!
\'The whirlwind dharma
that so haunts my dreams\'
(Wu Wei quietude, escapist dogma
to juxtapose, mind\'s zeal for chaos)

Before The Fall
Laura🌻 said:

Dear Kurt,

• “Before The Fall”
“The mirror once broken
—each crack filled with pain”

These words reminded me of a recent faux pas I regretfully made.


• “Invisible in nature”…

A powerful force within us that will
“rise to the surface
when conflicts begins”

This reminds me so much of Cutty.

Laura🌻
