reverse osmosis




i love a world
filled with Jesus
and joints, drinking smoking
joints (diversions)
devoid of
camera ready caricatures
encased
selfie's, soul seekers digitally
embalmed

there is always
room for
an emptiness - it is the
fullness
of life that scares us
shit-less, Really

think about it...dislike

requires nothing (besides nothing)
inclusion
requires a new paint set
a new rule book, requires an awakening to another's
portrait
a profiling

not a mirrored
or messaged us - but a body still warm
that inhales our space
exhales our
contribution - no camera
no service provider, no re-tweeted :)'s
relationship based not
on self obsession
but drenched in feeling
and denial - shared thoughts
at random
or in syncopated reverence

Seriously, i
could
drink to that - with Jesus
or with someone like
you

  4. What a powerful poem. I like the picture you paint, the distractions and the reality of really living and establishing true relationship. So well done.
