Freckles

Freckles glance on her brow, smile on her
breast--glance, smile at me - at you;
but at me, Grin Love. Grinning freckles
reign on me, as Dove, as they are sung to
be, with kid claws and lip beaks.

Succulent, juicy Tangerine that I peel
easily, lithely - She lithely moving inside
and through my hands sighs grass through
her fruit. A kaleidoscope of...

I was in the town of Redkey, not far from my foster parents home in Muncie, Indiana

I was working in the tomato canning factory there...

wow. chris, wow. this, i think, is my new favourite piece by you. so honest, and so telling. do you ever have sexual feelings for men anymore? can you cum now? finding true love is not easy, you have to let it come to you. i know that sounds so cliche, but it's the truth. some people looks for years for someone to love them, when all along it's right in front of your face. have you ever been married? do you have any kids? you don't have to answer my questions, they were just prevoked by your writing.

you're awesome chris, keep it up.

XOXOXOXOXO

Although I am only 27, I understand where you are coming from quite a bit.

Since this is such an honest story, I will be bluntly obvious with somethings that I haven't told many people, which amazingly has a lot of similarities to your story, but different meanings.

My 1st sexual experience was actually with a man. Although it never actually aroused me, it was still my 1st intimate encounter sexually with someone. There are 2 main reasons for this:

1) I didn't lose my virginity till pretty late in life (at the age of 23)

2) the fact that I am a skinny, "cute" guy living in the coachella valley (a VERY gay mecca) made a lot of people think I am gay. This in turn made me start to wonder if I was also gay.

3) I never had enough self-confidence to really find a decent woman till recently.


Later on, I did enter a sexually-healthy relationship with a woman for a good amount of time. Ever since then, though, I haven't had sex with anyone. 3 years and running.

The reason why, I have come to realize, is because I personally cannot just have "sex" with someone. There needs to be a lot more to it. I do not know yet if it requires full on "Love", or just a connection, but since then I haven't found a woman who is interested in me that I can respect enough to want to sleep with.

A Mother's Love
(A Mother's Day Poem)

You give birth to us through much pain and great (Joy!)
You Love us, you raise us
You care so much! for our well-being

You worry, you fear for us
You raise us to be independent of you
But whether we're 6 or 60
We're still your little boy or girl

And you never stop being a mother...

This poem was written to a very fascinating young woman, a T.M.
(Transcendental Meditation) teacher, who passed away--to Calfornia ...

I Love; I Love

I love; Iove
Intelligent radiance
Of, of your face.
Your face, it's glittering
Glittering genius;
Innocence. Innocent;
Star-hot; snow cool
Brilliant mood moody
Reflection. spring-lit,
Daisy genius come
Near, go away.
Come back, come back.
Hello. good-bye,
I say, you say,...

IT"S A MIDNIGHT RUN TO THE SUN

You've been with me in my dreams
Ever since I first saw you
You've been with me in my heart
Even when someone else was on my mind

You were a million miles away
The first time I touched you
By the time I get to you
I will have run a million miles

Run a million miles,...

Murder, Fire and Heartaches

Muder, fire and heartahes
Horrible acts of man against man
Terrible acts of God

Why, Why, oh Why ... ?
And this isn't something new
This has been going on since the beginning of man

9 million people were slaughtered
And treated like objects during WWII
Because of one man's, one group of men's terrible vision

Earthquakes, hurricanes, volcanoes, etc.
Hydrogen...

Chris this is a great poem, sorry for being late, but i had to translate many words. Probably i'll say something that seems my grandma's thought, but i really think that we have to love God (every kind of thing you can call "God"), and not only claim. Think about how many people has been murdered in the name of God (every God!!), but this is not what He would like, i think!!! So, as you said in the poem about war, we can only "fight" to let Love win, better if before 2089!!!

THE FEEL OF RAIN

The feel of rain
Is the feel of love:
Wet, and soft
Snug as a glove

The sound of rain
Is the sound of your voice:
Warm, full of fire
Flooding me in desire

The sound of rain
Is the sound of your voice:
Insistent, persistent
Always hoping

The sound of rain
Is the sound of your voice:
Far away, very...
