The Voice on the Phone
When in Rome ~ Philip Brent Harris ~~~~~ This was my yesterday. The voice on the phone said tell me your name. The voice on the phone confirmed my number. The voice on the phone asked me my problem. The voice on the phone would not understand. I wanted to speak to a real, […]
Healing?
~~~~~ What would we ask for, If there were only one thing? Would we walk along Streets and lanes, searching Wondering what could be The right choice, the easy answer, Not only for you, But also for me? Perhaps, we are seeking Is not something we can have, a fortune, Talent, great wisdom, immortality, But […]
Wag Chins, Flap Gums
~~~~~ Well, they all do make really valid points, Though their topic of discussion is unclear. If we all sit down and smoke several joints; We will then believe we’ve nothing to fear. How do we deal with overdose information, Religion, drugs, sex, TV, or move a mouse? Whatever, we succumb, labor or recreation, King, […]
Still on the Shelf?
~~~~~ A dog-eared page In an old book Mirrors my mood. Phantom reason, Marked as special. I fervently hope For unknown purpose, An unremembered time Or accidental. Compressed too long, Hidden, neglected, fragile, Forest and trees Broken off, lost. Handle with care. My life attacks, A whirlwind child. Imperious Nature, Unaware, uncaring. My dog-eared self, […]
Quirks Work
~~~~~ Writing in the first person, how can I be I sure I am writing as me? Even if I think I describe true events, what in my mind’s eye I see. Can I recount truthfully pictures I find lurking in my own memory, Directly, I start to reinvent, interpret, reconceive who I was, will […]
A Pleasant Meander
~~~~~ While on a recent idyll, a most pleasant meander, I stopped a while to chat with a fiery salamander. He dimmed his flames, we talked of rain and wind And all the little embers his sisters meant to send. He sent me then down the path to see a mighty oak, Said she was […]
In Time
~~~~~ Watching any two people, like you, uncertain and alone, As they meet upon your street, to stroll along and converse. In time, they court, the formal dance, they smile and sigh, Till laughing, flushed, happy and out of breath, they sit. Talking heart-to-heart leads to dialogue, to harmony, to love, Opening, joining, sharing fear, […]
What If?
~~~~~ What if you could create anything, paint like the greatest artist ever seen, Da Vinci, Rembrandt, Gentileschi, Rousseau, Magritte, Cassatt, Ditko, Kane? No doubt, I haven’t named your favorite, your one and only most fine. The list is so long, I could fill up every notebook that I have ever owned. Then I could […]
Hear the Future
~~~~~ I see the sea going on forever Obsessively pawing the shore. Know it, of course is Luna-sea Despite how near or how far. We respond because we must; To refuse beyond our powers. We will linger until we’re dust Over the space of a few hours Will we see space and time one? We […]
Farewell – A First World Lament
Farewell – A First World Lament Philias the Lesser ~~~~~ Farewell to our freedom; It is no longer for sale. It was sold for a pittance, Don’t bother to weep and wail. Like all living creatures, Our estates rise, and they fall. We say it’s not our fault, at all. Farewell to our homes, And […]
