IT IS
Something else and something else,
why does that sing a song
one where the words
forgotten
keep on coming along
beside me, through me
as I go
to where I do not know
who is looking,
what is looking
our consciousness
the brain its ticking time
where does awareness go
when there is nothing to be aware of
any more
we are a part
apart
yet joined to all that is
what is,
is something, nothing, nought
and yet its there
It is.
Nordic cloud.

yes, i love this topic, its there, the answer, the question all in one before us, we all feel it but don't comprehend it...but "it" is there...nice one :)
I suspect you are playing a wee joke on us
with the meaning of this, poetic pragmatism?
Well I got a giggle, appropriate or not.
You are sensitive to things
You are sensitive to things Jess,
this was in answer to someone else's poem that was humorous and musical,
I danced the style as if it were musical too
and used one, or two of his words to set me off,
perhaps I can find it, I'll try, its not in here.
Yes you can giggle, I love it that it has all sorts of messages
in it in spite of being simple in its facade.:)
Cheers skaal Ann.
Dear Ann,
Very well done! My favorite lines are:
we are a part
apart
yet joined to all that is
what is,
is something, nothing, nought
and yet its there
It is.
I like the paly on words and that fact that you used "do not" instead of don't in an earlier line. I don't like contractions in poetry as they feel common to me. I like the title and they way the words flow right along like humming a simple tune. the poem may be humerous but it sparks something deeper, like one of life's truths.
I have no suggestions, just appreciation for the work.
always, Cat
Thank you Cat.
Yes like Winnie the Pooh?
Then one is wise, or one is not wise,
the answer never given.
Ann
You all amaze this one in an isolated cage
You all amaze this one
in an isolated cage
when you all are switching over
to abject simplicity
from poetic complexicity
and
help a smile across my while
in free verse as
all you say
which clowns like me too
cannot betray
how I love the entity in you emerge
and
with time hopefully
it will surf
like the tide we all are aware of
