It seems
there is now nothing
I cannot witness
A girl
across the world
aging three years
in one minute
A 79 year-old man
telling immortal stories
of blood, war, death
motorcycles and joy
Teenagers from the middle of nowhere
beating the gatekeepers
and signing big
Hollywood deals
A one thousand pound gorilla
walking just inches from men
bored but wondering if
the human neck snaps much like a reed
It seems
there is now no person
I cannot potentially reach
1500 views
for this unknown writer
reading a poem
in an unknown restaurant
Though the hours of my life
are a
moving freight train
about to pull into
the Last Stop
I cannot stop
I cannot jump clear
I want to see it all shot
every angle
I want to shoot you
And I want to make sure
that you shoot
me
The wild, wild west
has nothing on us
baby
And it is now certain
that the future
will be
uploaded
shortly

Most excellent. And true.
And even still, there are those without Water, Food, Shelter, Medicine….. but I’ve seen them on T.V.
You rock AND roll.

Killer close. You are the man!
you’re cute.
It seems there is nothing I cannot witness
nothing I cannot reach
But so much I cannot touch
I want to talk to you.
Will you talk to me?
A poem that sums it all up and that it does with style!
Looking forward to reading more of your poetry.
Thanks all. Truly.
I’m absent from this place as my wife is heading home today from Romania. I’m a dead man if the house isn’t in order, which it hasn’t been for two weeks…
Catch you later…
Will be in your lovely little burg shortly stop
Would delight in your company stop
Your work simply gets better x2 stop
Will call soonest stop
Mantooth
Uh-oh.
For those of you who don’t yet know Mantooth, prepare yourselves.
And the name is Mantooth Redgrave…
The evil twin?
Candice - Very close, but no. If he actually decides to make a public appearance (as in video), I’ll introduce him properly on KGP.
I can’t believe I just said that.
hey man- good to see a fellow P-Towner out and about on the interweb!
Good stuff, man…
bob - Yeah, I figure there aren’t enough Portland weirdos representing out here…
Thanks for coming around.
So happy I happened on your poems, thanks to 9rules.
I will be visiting again. Very nice.
