Fri 030921 Been reading/writing poetry at: AllPoetry.com; joined: PowerPoetry.org (for teenagers)
It is to be noted that I have poems stored/published online at: PoemHunter.com.
To quote one of these...
>>>
If I were the Devil's shoes,
I would be a Dominatrix's high heels;
Piercing into and through
The eye of a Pervert!

Of late...meaning, during the last week...say, 3/4/5 days...I been hanging out online at: AllPoetry.com; where I'm interested in both 'reading/writing' poems online. Here is one of mine:
>>>
Paucity; and, giving thanks...
Which is thrilling...; and,
Very deeply thrilling it is, too;
Because...
Much more thrilling than is having things...
is NOT having things;
as it makes you 'want/yearn'
To have those things
all the more.
(Quite unlike whenever you get it, however;
and, then, do eventually -inevitably- become 'bored'...!)
Not that I'm saying that
having nothing is good;
But, then, when one carefully thinks about it...;
hardly anybody has absolutely nothing;
even, the poorest of the poor,
have the grass, flowers, bees, trees, river water's;
sun/clouds/moon/stars/
nay, even this whole entire Universe...;
and, of course, God (if you are a believer);
but, if not...you still have Science...;
and, Science gives us much to look forwards to
in regards to both knowing and understanding ourselves/
as well as, others
-(human/or, not)-
all around us.
Just as there is no Light without Darkness;
and, equally, it could be argued,
no Darkness without Light;
and, these two things are both
heavily inter-dependent on one another
in order to even exist at all...?!
Similarly, there's no Love without Hate;
no Success without Failure;
no Happiness without Sadness;
no Peace without War;
no Life without Death;
and, so it is that
at the end of the day,
for all and everything
I remain, well and truly, grateful.

Today, I actually went and joined:
...where just a few moments ago...I wrote my first poetry entry as follows:
>>>
Bills, bills, BILLS...
...constantly, incoming.
Money, money, MONEY...
...constantly, outgoing.
Savings, virtually NONE...;
As soon as 'any' money comes in...;
...then, I find it's, immediately, ALL GONE...?!
Goodness, life is tough...
...being a 'grown up'!
<<<
NOTE: PowerPoetry.org, is really meant to be for those people who are teenagers; but, I just decided to go join in there, anyway. After all, the young are FREE...and, therefore, their minds are capable of creating anything...without restrictions to form/or, normal official thinking...that a poem is either this/or, that; so, basically, I feel it might be worthwhile learning from them, too.
