With Love All Things Are Possible
Except Today
I sent the Law of Attraction out for burgers and fries
Yes, that will keep them all busy
I happen to know that the Law of Attraction cronies Love
Burgers and Fries,
So Good now…
I can stew here and not feel like the world may come
Crashing down with such thoughts as these..
Such murderous thoughts
Serial Killer thoughts.
There are 1,000 thoughts of you that I want to squash
Right here and now,
Like fly juice,
Squish….
Today I am running ramped with feelings unlike the
Ones I have been working out with
For the last few years…
You know,
Kindness Rules
Let go of the oars …
It’s all-downstream from here
It is never about the other person
Love will See you thorough
Ad nauseum… oppps
Don’t let them know I said that one for sure!
No today I opened the door wide open,
My cellar door,
I keep most of them prisoner
You know them …
Resentment
Anger
Fear.. In this case……of not getting what I desire
And that list goes on
Tich Nhat Hanh says I should have tea with them
But I am contemplating ‘Gin and Juice’
That would be my man Snoop who stated the obvious
I don’t think they would like tea…ever.
So here I am today in a moments reprieve from my
Daily grind of Love Love Love.
Yep … better drink up guys…
I don’t know how long Burgers and Fries take
But I feel that those LOA’ers will be back soon..
I don’t want you here
When they return
Without blinking an eye,
All those buggers cheered me,
Expressed profound gratitude that I let them out
Even for awhile
The big mean one with all the tattoos said,
‘You know Lina, sometimes your inner child
Comes down and unlatches the door …I think that’s
What happen…
Ohhh yeah.. That makes sense I said.
Maybe I better pay her some mind.
Go out and play
Go out and find
A way back..
Just reconnect,,
Simple to do…
And with that bit of reverie opening up my heart
I said:
“Wow, thanks you all, this really has been
A pleasant exchange”
I think I am ready now.
Back to the grind
Back to my mind
Back to the state of Being
Where Love is my way of Seeing.
And with that they took the bottle with them
And I told them they could have the juice.
The little one that looked like a rat said,
Hey.. We just drank the Gin with juice
For you babe.
I like him.. He’s my sarcasm guy.
Full of it!
I opened the door and closed it
Took the key I keep around my wrist
And locked the cellar door.
I leaned back on the door and heard them
All whispering something about
“Hey there’s always hope, guys..
That Expansion is just a fairy tale,
You know like Global Warming is”
And then I heard the vibration of my heart
Respond to the arrival of
My Posse,
My True Nature was there too,
They looked as they always do,
Damn Happy.
I let them in because
I want to be happy too.

It is interesting.. several faves but no comments.. always I know this happens when I write like this.. uncomfortable feelings….no holes barred.. I wrote this for me today as I was out of control sad.. as I knew would happen..I start where I am.. Then I choose a thought that feels better.. well next thought was anger, that helped get me out of sadness then as I consciously choose thoughts that feel better the LOA comes in and helps.. the scale of emotions are touched on until like the poem in the end I choose to hold hands with who I really am.. I like to consciously address my demons and give em a drink.. they calm down and then I do too… then we all go home

This is fantastic Lina…I love the way you do poems like this….make your emotions sounds like an entirely separate entity…..that would certainly make them easier to deal with huh?....very awesome way to deal with things…besides the point that this was just a flat out terrific read xoxoxoxo…great job!! (I’m out of adjectives…damn!)

Excellent, You writing is so abstract and yet |I understand completely,’ I let them in because
I want to be happy too.’ I love this part, I have spent many years alone with my art, and my feelings of Red Bubble are like this, it is the first time I let ‘them’ in and now I am happy, beautiful words my friend….

great piece Lina
It takes a person with great understanding of their own feelings
to let out their nasties for a walk and then lock them away again
BRAVO!!!

Lucky I have no dis-ease cause I love the stuff so… this is a day that I was emotionally wrought from all the lack of seretonin to my system..xox

I agree with the quality and force of this writing. Sometimes one must open the valve and let a little steam out. It helps us identify what needs to be worked on. Easy to be a Brother to your Brothers until compelled to work with them or along side of them. Of course—rightly or wrongly, they are probably thinking the same thing. For me the great truth you express for all of us (Universal) is the powerful ending of your poem—when you choose to go on and attempt to be happy. To eat our own hearts, or allow regret, grief and disappointment to consume us from the inside, would be the greatest tragedy. This poem is another wonderful example of your wisdom and courage.

thank you Joe.. your kindness is in the most gentle and God Loving Way..It is your cornerstone of who you are as a man, husband and friend.. i am deeply honored to be touched by your work as well as your comments.. I love the Spiritual Nature of Who We REally Are.. Children of God.. and a God that is for me expanding more and more into my life and my story… I only go back very little anymore.. and when I do it is a powerful reminder why I no longer Stay!! lol thank you friend.
