What Do You Think?

by Everlasting   Aug 17, 2016


Come, meet me at the door;
there's a small lamp - a chandelier,
hook up to the ceiling's floor,

touch it but do not see it

see it and you will feel it

feel it and you will regret it

----------------

For you,
I walk with my head not with my feet.

Look! There is the street, wait for me.

___________

Since Sunday, the orange tree
gives mandarins,
some say it's inevitable
it's roots were intertwined,
becoming one...

{Yes. it gives no more oranges but tangerines.}

*****************

may be my toe nails are hairs.
they are black and thick,

Seee....

Shh...

[ I blame genetics ]

***************

may be my feet have eyes
and my head has nails

some say when I stare,
I hammered into them chills
till they freeze
and bleed
away
from
me

****************

may be, I'm like that orange tree.

*****************

Since Sunday,
I walk with my head and not with my feet,
I walk with my eyes on the ceiling's floor
and not on the streets,

may be,
I am intertwined,
becoming one...

yes, with you:

NONSENSE!

    Hi,

    I must say I always look forward to reading your poems because they are always unique and enthralling but always so adventurous and written well.

    I've got to admit that I read this twice and both times I liked something else.

    Hello up there...

    It is clear you like to look at things in an unorthodox way...

    I like that - after all, is this not how we became to be 'we' intertwining until 'we' replaced our fins and gills, replacing them with air breathing and land propelling instruments? As for hairs on my toe nails - hmm, have you been looking?

    Well done - Nominated!

    Take care,

    Michael
