Comment from I am Cat
hello dear 'boy'... ;)
this is an interesting read... I'm not sure I 'get' all of it... but the feeling i'm left with is one that gets THIS part and am hit with THIS most:
kingdom come holds fort
like a purer religion...
that conquers Jacob's self
here in Mecca begin
rare toe tapping rhythm
journeys a lovers wind
that is just wonderfully musical to my soul.
It makes me want to dance in the darkness of night... to the autumn breeze... barefoot in chiffon...
hair loose... with reckless abandon...
that's what it makes me feel.
perhaps that's all I need to know about it?
as always, you send me somewhere else. ;)
I thank you
Cat

Hey Purty...-smile-
um....not ya know sure where it came from...the song took me here.
Jacob...was ah coward...the name itself means..."sneak thief"
before he "wrestled with the angel"...and won his blessing the new name Israel.
you should read the story if you haven't...very powerful commentary...
on real love and its able force. whoops...i've slipped havent I...? ah its a gift...i'd be a great gypsy.
I guess its about crazy that just cant figure itself out so we just continue.
its about realizing sunrise and the reasons why we do, confronting them with understanding
and in doing so conquering the continuing....but thats if you want to break it down deeo sea...-wink-...ahhahaha
Hell I dont know kitten , I'm poet what do you expect...gimmie a kiss. love Michael

Comment from Gloria ....
The leaves are great, they are flying around like birds.
Well I must admit, I've never listened to Sons of Anarchy and it's pretty powerful stuff.
Excellent poem, Michael. I especially love the line carnal instinct goes fair and square spiritual. that's the point where we get to real love when holiness is the whole of it.
Excellent free verse as per your always,
Gloria

Comment from roserock
Greetings Reconciled; I had to read it a few times trying to understand the meaning. I think I finally got it. Well written; reminds me of an abstract painting; the longer you look at it, the more you can see, and no one has the same interpretation of the painting. You are as crafty with words as I think you are with a brush. I love the way you weave your words into a twisted maze; I don't know many who could do this.
I love how you started the poem and ended it with the same verse. I also love the lines 'toe tapping rhythm journeys a lovers wind' and 'eyes wide shut closed'.
I think this poem is worthy of six stars.
Blessings to you; Petra

I enjoyed the formatting here. I gathered the religious feel. I am however pondering over a close interpretation of meaning. I will have to read it over again.

Hey there...-smile-..thank you very much. ah meaning...to me it means that we are always or mostly a world at war...individually and in whole. ...and "we" have all history...that hits over and over again like the hammer of insanity. and it was just a musing about each of us waking up tomorrow and beginning a new pilgrimage...wiser from head injury...-smile-...love Michael
-

Here's to your "mecca" and "true religion"! I admired your touch of "toe tapping rhythm" and was delighted that "delirium subsides into clarity". Big hugs- Joan

Comment from Teri7
I read and reread this work. I couldn't tell if you believed in Jesus and God or were making fun of churches. I gave you a five on your merit of writing poetry. Good job. Teri

Hi Teri...-smile- I'm glad you asked...not sure why but glad nonetheless. yes...I believe in both Jesus and God...in fact I believe them one and same...-smile- but what does that mean really...? when even demons believe. I believe it matters not but to the individual soul, not to dismiss it as unimportant...but most. for the reality of Him...is either way. -smile-
church...is a body of Souls...people. We are all His church.
whether in denial or not. Yes indeed I am an admirer, lover of, and miserable servant to....Jesus. who fails more than he succeeds...but believes He sees the skinned knees of trying. -smile-
however....maam. if I were to have answered you with no.
it should give only genuine concern for a misguided lamb not ostracized distrust or condemnation for not "choosing" to openly or inside. We forget Gods time table is not ours....and David had to be taught to a King. Saul had to crawl through his own vomit to transform into Paul. and that there can be no "prodigal son" unless he first leaves. -smile-
the poem is about a truer religion. thank you Dear. l.ove Michael
-
thank you Michael. I am a true Christian that is going through a battle. I am sure you are aware ot those. Was not meaning to critize you. I have always like your work. Hugs, Teri
-
I know...I wasn't thinking you were...-smile-.....Somebody once told me that the "cross" were to pick up and follow...is us our deteriorating bodies housing our souls. Its easier at first when the mirror confirms will live forever....-smile-.....I'm praying any pain will be short lived. love-
