Enchanted

Enchanted with one look, one phrase
Brings to mind the old days
when the one I adored was so inclined…

Now the mists have covered up
that door
where he and I used to travel through
day in and day out

doesn’t exist anymore

Except in my mind, where I’ve tried to forget
but you and your obsession have managed

to open it.

Stop, before you go too far
Your life will never be the same
You don’t know what I could do to you
you are too new to this game…

KBR (Another very old poem :-) )

You Win

Why did you call?
Was it just to tease?
To make me remember
just as I was beginning not to

I know you still care
I heard it in what you didn’t say
when I mentioned him
in my clever off-handed way

I know you’re growing weary
of the distance separating
you and your latest
Perhaps you’re considering a diversion?

Could you, would you
use me
like before
when she was busy working
and you needed a
lady’s voice in your head
and a warm body in your bed?

Yes baby, I’m thinking of you again….

KBR (A very old poem)

Paige Bradley created one of the most striking sculptures I’ve seen in recent times. Her masterpiece, entitled Expansion, is a beautiful woman seeking inner piece but fractured and bleeding with light. “From the moment we are born, the world tends to have a container already built for us to fit inside: a social security number, a gender, a race, a profession,” says Bradley. “I ponder if we are more defined by the container we are in than what we are inside. Would we recognize ourselves if we could expand beyond our bodies?”
