Greetings, all. My latest poem, not about PD or medicine, but about love/life. --------------------------------------------------------------------- stargazing from the edge Beyond the edge of the modern, where it no longer casts its pale glow against the night sky... ...the best place for Stargazing We embrace on a blanket spread thin upon the moist ground, your shoulder conducting my shocked touch, my rigid trembling traveling straight to your Heart We are hopelessly forever falling, tasting the wind in the silver grass beyond, invisible movers and breathers, sculpted by the darkness, coming awake to the sound of your beauty and the scent of your Voice. And it doesn't matter if your sky metaphor is a blue-cast bedroom Ceiling After the star party dims and winks and everyone has spilled outside into the damp, your cheeks still glow like a galaxy being Born You tease and invite me to stay, as Always I tease and agree to stay, as Always. You are as exquisite as eternity, and our bodies hum with cosmic Radiance Your eyes shine with comet fire blazing across my Soul We defy modern light invading through the detached observing window, and create constellations in the shadows, birth-space of a billion Suns j.r. romanyshyn 11/2/95 ----------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Peace from the Clouds" \--*MH*--/ Jeffrey Romanyshyn Email: [log in to unmask] "Myth Hawk" 28/Diagnosed 3yrs/Sinemet CR 2x/Sinemet 10/100 as morning booster and as needed/Eldepyrl 5mg 1x/NADH 2x/Rolfing (Deep Body Massage/Lift Weights-Cycle--4-5 times per week "Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist after he grows up." - Picasso. "A society that has long lived with oppositional thinking and a deeply embedded belief in dualism denies the dynamic interdependence of the opposites--which pulsates at the core of myth--what a mythic way of knowing is all about!" - (C.A. Burke, L. Hogan, & J.R. Romanyshyn) If you wish, please check out some of my poetry (written under the psuedonym ROM CARPATHIAN) and other fine literary creations at the M.
