Question: Could you share with us a favorite poem of yours and share what it says to you?
Answer:
"THINKING"

Ineffable words pray on the collective consciousness
The day will come when all rebellious souls will dance
Swallowing infinite ideological possibilities;

Thinking
Only
About
The rapture
Of Sublimity

So WHY NOT ignore mouths that are linked to DISDAIN!!
They can be filled with anguish
Marked by jealousy and envy
Love isn’t the reason behind some words—

She---

On airy Saturday afternoon with flight driven feet
Make the world of light penetrate the ordinary

As her sticky thoughts cling to moments like crazy glue to surface
She gives her dream to the Goddess
So she can travel light

Her power is her power

Presence is her nature

Magnificent is her scent

She is the divine

Wait and see

Wait and see

The Goddess will expose her

Give her back her grace

Give her back her heart

And remind her why she was brought here.
