b132 (5.17-1.2026): seeking mayfly love

seeking mayfly love [i]
by a. male mayfly
 

alternative title: 1,440 years!

 
i was born a mayfly so i lived the mayfly life
forever seeking mayfly love (and maybe mayfly wife!)

seeking love at mayfly-high, then mayfly college games
seeking love in mayfly job and mayfly marriage (tamed)
seeking love while raising kids (with mayfly soccer moms)
seeking love while passion waned and mayfly marriage bombed
seeking love in post-divorce at post divorcee pool
seeking love while getting old (still trying to look cool)
seeking love (like groundhog day) i find myself in tears
seeking love (this move-ie lasts another thousand years!)
seeking love (i wonder how much longer i’ll pretend)

i fly toward y/our windshield, now, my final act:

-the end

________________________________
 
·       humans think that i’m living the dream: a whole lifetime of mayfly love!

·       the truth of my nightmare is the 1,440 year turmoil: hopelessly romantic, unsatisfied ego, diminishing value, and being outflown by younger (more powerful) mayflies.

·       event-u-ally, death-highway’s windshield provides more of a relief than an ending. 

post-humus re-velation: i'm grateful for every, single phase. i'd do-Be-do it again.

*the mayfly lives for 1 (human) day, or 1,440 human minutes (each of which [might] seem like forever... to the mayfly). 

b124 (6.27-2.2025): love is like an onion

love is like an onion

by onion esque 
 
love is like an onion
bittersweet, at best
whole (yet multilayered)
yum (from east to west)
 
love is like a juicy onion (dynamite, at least)
peel and cry (and don’t ask why)
fun (from west to east) 
____________________
 
·       best when savored.
·       never eaten quickly.
·       accentuated.
·       relished.
 
i was wondering how the word 'relish' was going to sneak its way in 😊 as this onion-love-thoem was developing herself and writing her auto-bio. 😊

b115 (7.23-2.2023): the birds and the bees

the birds and the bees [i]
by d. oit doit
 
the birds and the bees
nanobots and trees
propagate species
the birds and the bees
___________________________________
 
·       when the birds and the bees are bots, will the new God propagate in HE/R own image?

·       is the expression of thoetry akin to propagation?

 didn’t jo & al = joal?

·       isn’t evolution (spelled backwards) no-i-to-love?
   o   is evolution, then, the propagation of the ego, in its own image?

·       is the urge to Une a Spiritual practice – in action?  is it an IS?
   o   In other words, doesn’t everything on the physical plane (in its own false sense of separate self) Connect with the All that IS?

b88 (3.1-3.2020): let me sip your nectar

let me sip y/our nectar ^[1]            
by m. arch & m. addness
 
let me sip y/our nectar
let me pour y/our wine
let me help erase the pain of past and troubled times
let me touch the deepest depths of y/our communication
let me set y/our table
 
sweet and smooth (sensations)
_______________________________
 
·        the symbiotic relationship between the hummingbird and his/her lover begins with an offering… …and continues – in a passionate affair of flight, fight, addiction, control, release, vulnerability, love, surrender, sex, birth, territorialism, family, frolic, and fun.
 
while each hummingbird is (essentially) free to seek out his/her own niche’, s/he is also bound by a survival/thrival instinct that pre-includes risk, excitement, communication, danger… and making friends with strangers.
