A SLEW OF PHANTOMS (photomorph) & TOO MUCHNESS (non-dream free verse poem) by Roswila

TOO MUCHNESS

youch! the truth crashes into her
like a wrecking ball, taking her breath
and hard-won composure away:
she really is "too much" ...
but, whoa!
wait a minute, she thinks,
as breath returns
with a modicum of focus, maybe
this just means she should seek out a
"too much" man (there has to be at least
one such creature in the slew of men
around here) who will not only be able
and willing (you should pardon the pun)
to handle her, but grasp with his intuitive
heart whatever may be the creative
possibilities of their complementary
"too muchness"


[non-dream free verse poem written 4-12-18. ). Sigh, seems I'm sort of "fated" right now to not even vaguely like the poems I'm producing. Because today's is another I'm extremely ambivalent about (most of the extreme-ness landing on the negative side). Photomorph "A Slew of Phantoms" (12-30-17 009v12d) by Roswila]

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,
