Poetry is a channel
for one's inner directions

many keep desires
deeply hidden

those who perceive
are intelligent
adore visuals

have an open mind
enjoy some bitter
black coffee

I love red wine
then only I shine..
you may or may not
with me 'tis fine

Yeah...

Never could drink much wine. [Although I do like sweet, bubbly stuff]. Champagne?
Yeah, many of us keep our desires hidden, revealing them in poetry and writings, but since they are fantasy, we find them easier to explain away. [It's only fantasy]. Hmmmm... I guess I've a lot 'splaining to do, huh? ~ Geez.

There is value to commenting and critique, tell us how you feel about our work.
This must be the place, 'cause there ain't no place like this place anywhere near this place.
