come to visit<br />
bring your light<br />
and spend the night<br />
touch me with your joy and sorrow<br />
we can save the world tomorrow<br />
<br />
some understand<br />
so many don't<br />
some hold a hand<br />
so many won't<br />
creating pain<br />
is so insane<br />
we can let it go<br />
a moment or so<br />
<br />
sister spirit<br />
can you hear it<br />
that's my heart<br />
beating for you<br />
and every living energy<br />
we are part of everything<br />
<br />
there was no choice<br />
when I heard your voice<br />
I knew you were part of<br />
the infinite love<br />
all we can do is share<br />
all we can do is care<br />
and feeling everything<br />
all we can so is sing<br />
<br />
feeling everything<br />
one with it all<br />
there was no choice<br />
we had to fall<br />
so we can fly<br />
just you and I<br />
always hello<br />
never goodbye<br />
<br />
no matter where we are<br />
it is never too far<br />
to share the song we sing<br />
feeling everything<br />
for we know we are<br />
part of everything<br />
part of everything<br />
part of everything<br />
<br />
sister spirit<br />
come to visit<br />
bring your light<br />
and spend the night<br />
touch me with your joy and sorrow<br />
we can save the world tomorrow<br />

If only he knew how much his gift of space and time means to me, he would be filled with so much joy and gratitude, he would feel his value as a human being increase exponentially with each passing day of peace and night of comfort in this sanctuary he provides. From such a heart, this gift provides belief that the human race still has hope to survive it's infancy and evolve into beings that can share this world in peace. I am inspired to remain, to continue seeking income, to return to the madness of the working world if only to return some tangible gifts and favors to him. For he has restored my faith in humanity... and in myself. <br />
<br />
I shall find a card and write this into it with hope he hears me.<br />
<br />
<center>From this human blessing<br />
safe haven you provide<br />
I can write <br />
to keep myself sane<br />
to keep fears calm in my brain <br />
to believe I will rise again. <br />
<br />
If only you knew <br />
how much this gift of space and time<br />
means to me, <br />
you would would be filled with so much joy and gratitude<br />
you would feel your value as a human being increase exponentially <br />
with each passing day of peace <br />
and night of comfort <br />
in this sanctuary you provide. <br />
<br />
From such a heart as yours <br />
this gift provides belief <br />
that the human race still has hope to survive it's infancy <br />
and evolve into beings that can share this world in peace. <br />
<br />
For you are who you are<br />
I am inspired to remain <br />
to return to the madness of the working world <br />
if only to return some tangible gifts and favor. <br />
<br />
For you have restored my faith in humanity... <br />
and in myself.</center><br />
My hope is I do not overstay my welcome. I must maintain alert communication and acute sensitivity in spite of instinct pushing to be as still and quite and invisible as possible so as not to intrude any more than I already do just by being here and filling space and using resources he pays for. <i>Imagine no possessions</i> is a wonder ideal, but I know it is not realistic in this world at this time and I must sense his limits even if he says I have not reached them. If he was such a being who truly could actualize having none as I have at times in this life when I had the space and means, he would be the first I've met. <br />
<br />
How do we know how close we can come to existentially enlightened until we actually do it?<br />
<br />
I name him The Maharaja in my daily blogs because that is my way of offering some privacy to the people in in the physical world as I express my experiences, thoughts, and feeling in worlds online. He has given me shelter from the storm, a room, a bed, a safe place to rest and cook and eat and exercise and bathe and search the internet for a job (and do all the other things, paperwork, dress properly, fill out the online applications, write cover letters, appear as though I am not homeless so I might have a better presentation to prospective employers). This would be so much more challenging from a library living in my car. <br />
<br />
His generosity, hospitality, kindness, and understanding comes as a wonderful surprise just when I needed it most. A large poster of John Lennon adorns the wall right outside of this room and this man opening his home to me is showing me <i>Imagine</i> is not just a song. The dream lives in him as it lives in me and now, it is actualized. <br />
<br />
I hope it feels as good to him in his heart as it does to me in mine. candoorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16247345559618328103noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4719506942084762784.post-31854533862767073382016-04-14T03:23:00.001-07:002016-04-14T03:26:30.192-07:00Lenka<center>Lenka you inspire my smile<br />
the child inside of me laughs when he hears your voice<br />
yes, like a song<br />
you come along<br />
and soothe and lift my spirits (that have no choice)<br />
<br />
Lenka come and sit a while<br />
the poet in me would love to write with you<br />
I love your show<br />
it seems you know<br />
how to be happy like few others do<br />
<br />
It is a secret only children understand<br />
I don't know why most grown-ups forget<br />
We can choose to see life as hell or wonderland<br />
Or somewhere in the middle<br />
Well, I am not there yet<br />
<br />
I still turn my lemons into lemonade<br />
And I still see rainbows through my tears<br />
All the raw emotions are just life's parade<br />
Like a roller coaster there is joys and fears<br />
<br />
But I will always choose love after all<br />
I will always choose to get up when I fall<br />
I will not stay down for long<br />
I will listen to your song<br />
And remember that perspective is my call<br />
I decide what to do with my ball<br />
<br />
Gonna bounce my ball<br />
Wanna play with me today?<br />
You can bounce the ball<br />
We can choose to be this way<br />
Let go of the pain and worries<br />
Pause the troubles and the hurries<br />
You know, just enjoy the show<br />
Feel the wind blow and <br />
Watch the garden grow and <br />
Roll 'round in the snow and <br />
Ride the river's flow<br />
<br />
Let your freak flag fly<br />
and feelings show<br />
Let yourself go<br />
Cuz you know<br />
We can enjoy the show<br />
<br />
And still turn lemons into lemonade<br />
And still see rainbows through our tears<br />
All the raw emotions are just life's parade<br />
Like a roller coaster there are joys and fears<br />
<br />
But we will always choose love after all<br />
We will always choose to get up when we fall<br />
We will not stay down for long<br />
We will listen to this song<br />
And remember that perspective is our call<br />
We decide what to do with the ball<br />
<br />
Gonna bounce the ball<br />
Come and bounce the ball<br />
Let's bounce the ball<br />

the moment i saw you<br />
i knew everything i will ever do<br />
i will do for you<br />
<br />
i fell in love with you<br />
so deeply completely<br />
your eyes saw who i am<br />
at the center of me<br />
<br />
dia will you ever know<br />
how much i want you to stay<br />
with me forever and a day<br />
i die every time you go<br />
<br />
dia can there ever be<br />
enough time for you and me<br />
to make all the love we feel<br />
nothing was ever so real<br />
<br />
and no matter what is said<br />
there is nothing else in my head<br />
but you, just you, all of you<br />
so beautiful you<br />
<br />
and no matter what is done<br />
every moment we've just begun<br />
to create the passion of love<br />
others look for high above<br />
<br />
higher than holy<br />
deeper than truth<br />
never so lonely<br />
without you<br />
more amazing than magic<br />
more precious than youth<br />
we are what everyone wants to be<br />
love so true<br />
becoming one being<br />
who used to be<br />
me and you<br />
<br />
i fell in love with you<br />
the moment i saw you<br />
i knew everything i will ever do<br />
i will do for you<br />
<br />
i fell in love with you<br />

dia can there ever be<br />

to make all the love we feel<br />
nothing was ever so real<br />
<br />
dia you wrote the song i am<br />
and only you could understand<br />
everything i have never said<br />
everything that is in my head<br />
<br />
dia i see deep in your eyes<br />
a silly child so beyond wise<br />
the yin and the yang you always wanted<br />
everything you dream of<br />
that is what you can find in my love<br />
<br />
your turn, your verse, your choice, your voice<br />
tell me i did not read you wrong<br />
dreams really do come true<br />
when you finish this song<br />

This entry is simply a snapshot of those faces inspiring the most list over the past decade or so. Many others might be added representing past or present sensual preferences. This may be just getting the party started. If you look like any of these people, you have a much greater chance of melting me physically into your love slave, at least for a night or lifetime. Hey, time is relative. A sense of humor is the most attractive part of a person to me, but on the purely physical libido (maybe superficial, but I'll write profound love songs for you, really I will, if you have similar looks) level, here are some of the most inspiring people of recent years. If you don't agree, that's great, go get your own lol :)<br />

how can that be, will you tell me?<br />
do you see the safety in my eyes?<br />
do you see that there is no disguise?<br />
no doubt, no lies<br />
<br />
it is not ignorance<br />
it is accepting what i do not know<br />
it is not superficiality<br />
there are depths far far below<br />
where anyone will go<br />
<br />
are you as curious as you appear?<br />
how far have you gone, when you are on?<br />
do you see the trust in my eyes?<br />
do you see you can have anything from me?<br />
no rules, just free<br />
<br />
it is not weakness<br />
it is accepting you may be the one<br />
it is not fear or fantasy<br />
this is as real as you want it to be<br />
your reality<br />
<br />
are you as wise as you appear?<br />
do you know there is no end to true love<br />
do you see the love in my eyes?<br />
someone will know how unconditional love can be<br />
when she loves me<br />
<br />
and now i open my heart to you<br />
you can choose what you want to do<br />
you can go anywhere inside<br />
i have nothing to hide<br />
<br />
and if you if you want to play i will play<br />
and if you want to go away<br />
you can go anywhere you want to go<br />
only you know<br />
<br />
how much you want to share<br />
how much you want to care<br />
you are free to be as you want to be<br />
where you want to be<br />
with or without me<br />
<br />
are you as innocent as you appear?<br />
how can that be, will you tell me?<br />
do you see the safety in my eyes?<br />
do you see that there is no disguise?<br />
no doubt, no lies<br />
<br />
it is not ignorance<br />
it is accepting what we do not know<br />
it is not superficiality<br />
there are depths far far below<br />
where anyone will go<br />
<br />
what is you love<br />
what is your pain<br />
what is your fear<br />
what drives you insane<br />
i will drink it all<br />
your poison your pleasure<br />
i will give you all<br />
no force can measure<br />
<br />
i give you unconditionally<br />
as no one has ever given before<br />
i give you honesty<br />
no one can give you any more<br />
<br />
i see the truth in your eyes<br />
i see the world in your eyes<br />
i see the love in your eyes<br />
i see everything in your eyes<br />
<br />
i am more innocent than i appear<br />
are you aware as you appear?<br />
do you see the truth in my eyes?<br />
do you see the love in my eyes?<br />

she came to me in the form of starlight<br />
with a promise of passion's paradise<br />
it felt so real, so sweet, so true, so right<br />
<br />
then lost and found between dream and memory and yet<br />
it will appear as prophesy in both autobiographical and play<br />
for i do not discuss my intimacies unless a partner seeks vignette<br />
affection or expression or more in words or touches for public display <br />
<br />
as long as there is space between us and no permanent one <br />
there is longing for more and hence, the reality expands<br />
through imagination that fuels intense sensual fun<br />
in reality, but then, who truly understands<br />
<br />
the difference... </center><br />
<br />
and so i write into the night and stare at stars for in their light i hope and dream for better ways as music plays and better days for love that stays and sways from innocent passion to uninhibited intimacy and a world of people without fear or greed or hate or need beyond love... and so it came to me and it was beautiful and while beyond words, this attempts to paint a glimpse of how it felt and what it was as she came to me like starlight and i see the star again each night and i smile... and then there are the links i add for depth and flavor and tangents and paths to explore and they may be playful distractions, or deliberate obscurity for privacy, or even random chances for expansion of thought and feeling, wisdom and folly, seriousness and irreverence, dark and light, opportunity for communication, for sharing even... and in the end, it is a wonderful exciting and sometimes tremulous circle of longing and fulfillment, wanting and having, hunger and satisfaction, and in the extremes, agony and ecstasy... a wondrous cycle built for two...<br />
<br />
<center>yes, it was somewhere in the <a href=http://wordsfromotherminds.blogspot.com/2008/10/wanderer.html target="_blank">middle</a> of the night<br />
as i pondered <a href=http://wordsfromotherminds.blogspot.com/2008/09/alone-ea-poe.html target="_blank">weak and weary</a> here<br />
a <a href=http://wordsfromotherminds.blogspot.com/2008/10/madhouse.html target="_blank">strange glow</a> from within called me to <a href=http://www.pandora.com/nat-king-cole/very-best-of-nat-king-cole/when-i-fall-in-love target="_blank">paradise</a><br />
and <a href=http://imaginena.blogspot.com/2012/06/stranger-in-night.html target="_blank">she</a> took me <a href=http://relayshunz.blogspot.com/2012/06/one-look.html target="_blank">there</a>... </center><br />

<br />
<blockquote><p align=justify>the first time i saw you from a few feet away in the myspace tent on warp tour your smile told me there was magic in you... the first time i read your writing i smiled to recognize a kindred spirit with similar synaptic firing (and mis-firings lol :)<br />
<br />
and once again i send you some peaceful energy and hope that you continue on your path to finding the peaceful balance inside (something like you describe Blake having) so your magic can shine through without the worries and distractions all around... <br />
<br />
babble on, D, and stay true to you :)</p></blockquote><br />
the babbler fell in love with her at first reading... i love the way her brain free-flows through her thoughts (or is that her thoughts free flow through her brain?... not that it matters)... an example of the synchronicity of synapses is this answer to a question from one of her fans... <br />
<br />
<blockquote>Katie: What is your favorite movie?<br />
Dia: The Princess Bride. Hook. Big Fish. The Gladiator! Labyrinth. Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. Amelie. Wait until dark. The Sting. </blockquote><br />
if you know me then you know <i>The Princess Bride</i> and <i>Hook</i>, the first two that came to mind, are usually my first two too... <i>Butch Cassidy</i> has been a favorite longer than the others cuz it's been around longer, as has <i>The Sting</i>... and the rest connect too... and other synaptic connections can be found clearly and intuitively throughout her writings which are babbles... <br />
<br />
for now, i leave this entry... i am not sure whether i will come back here or write a new one the next time dia inspires me to want to document the inspiration she inspires... we shall see when it happens, aye?... in any case, here is now a new space for people who inspire me :)</b>candoorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16247345559618328103noreply@blogger.com0
