FAN DANCING (photo) & TO FEEL DESIRABLE (non-dream free verse poem) by Roswila]

TO FEEL DESIRABLE

yeah maybe I am too much
I've been told so often enough

but who says you must take me in
all in one swallow

instead think of me as a ten course dinner
from which how much you partake
is totally optional

or better yet know that like grazing
across a wide green savannah
a series of hungry nibblings would be
just fine as far as I'm concerned

I do not need to be taken up entire
to feel desirable

PLEASE NOTE: in most browsers you can click on the above image for a larger version. Also, the photo accompanying a post is not necessarily meant to illustrate it, but to reflect some small, even slant aspect of the verse, similar to Japanese haiga (illustrated haiku).

There are many other sorts of posts on this blog. I indicate which are about or influenced by dreams. Some non dream focused posts are book reviews, "regular" poems (some by other writers), scifaiku, writing exercises, Tarot haiku, photos, haiga, and so on. However, most of those are in much older posts. There's a listing by month going back to early 2006, at the end of the sidebar.

until next time, keep dreaming,
