And acts on them

my integration as a person is
a construct
from a larger wholeness
a world? a universe?
from within I cannot see it
this larger is replete with
consciousness

There is no thing
and it’s moving

when we touch
that’s conversation
only then do we
exist as persons

Exploratory poetry

:- Doug.

Elusive friend, calling me on and out, calling me to you in yours, growing on ahead of me, burgeoning, billowing, roiling, self-creating, unfurling, slipping around the corner: I run after, and maybe sometimes ahead, just for play. There! I see you fluttering the leaves, they flash in the sunlight!

:- Doug.

There’s something elusive
and maybe it’s me

:- Doug.

What’s the mystery today, friend?

:- Doug.

In us
Aliveness

this calls me on and on
I’m like the elusive part of it all

Approach the elusive
it is beckoning thee

We all have a genius
It’s what makes us odd
Often ashamed
A trait in need of fixing
Until we fix our seeing

My poetry to ears tuned popular is not so concrete as the most nuanced music.

In seeking to express the elusive, I am coming to realize it is elusive because it is growing on all sides—in my mouth and out, in my head and out.

:- Doug.

It’s not much of a marketplace, is it, if everyone sells the same wares? We’re just manual laborers welding pre-cast pieces together if we don’t think unfamiliar thoughts.

:- Doug.
