"Having entered these doors with a desire
to listen to others who think similarly, you
might find long held views countered and
questioned, as you travel from one thread to another: and whether or not you agree, you will see and learn of things which may open your eyes, if you wish to allow it."
"Seeking connections with people, to see if they might want to know you, or rather,
you might want to know them; one often
looks for commonalities.
Yet, there is one thing for certain; the lack of certainty you may find, from your fellows, in their desire to learn."
"As eloquence pours from the mouths
of my friends, my ears burn, as they
take turn in their mutual delight, of
embarrassing Angelus…"
"With opinion shared with people who cared, I wandered from thread to thread, sharing words, with people I’ve chosen to know."

Endless Flight
With a slow beat of it’s massive wings,
this Behemoth rises high, over snow-clad
peaks, as it sweeps its passage through
an azure sky towards the crimson
setting sun; its long neck craning, eyes
seeking into the distance, as the beast
continues onward.
Its strong heartbeat as slow the wings
that hold it aloft, it snorts heavily,
labouring somewhat, in the thin air;
so, drawing back its wings, the beast
begins to dive earthward, as it begins
its descent; then nearing the ground
it unfurls its wide wings, to arc back
toward the sky, with a quick flick of
its powerful tail.
And, as the wings beat to a resonant
flow, the animal’s eyes glance back
and across the open plain below; and
its shadow falls across the herds of
bison below, creating panic amongst
them, driving them madly to the left
and right, as they run from the shadow,
of the dragons flight above.
Alone for many years, it has soared the
skies the master of all it surveys,
a creature of myth to some, of awe to
others, the dragon wishes to find a mate,
before its time passes.
Yet, for now its content to be what it is,
the King of its element air, for which it
is known, the great and wonderful
mythical beast.
I’d said what I had and she’d retorted,
“You’re a romantic’ and I don’t know
if it were a comment, or question.
But, either way, I’d rather this, as is Now,
than cold and in pain, as I had been…
So, I’m neither, I’m a romantic.
Can you see as I can see?
Will you listen, as I listen
to you? As I tell you of the
things that I see…
I don't want to be an ousider, looking in; or an insider looking out; but want to participate, on simple ground rules:
treat me and my family and friends, as you would want to be treated.
I'm a Wirral Squirrel,
from
the insular Penninsular!!
