free cee COULD ROCK ANY WOMAN'S WORLD

SO WE WERE SHARING AN APARTMENT NEAR WASHINGTON SQUARE

AND NEXT DOOR WAS A VAST FLOOR OF DIRT

MY LOVER WHISPERED WITH A BREEZE "I WILL PLANT MY SEEDLINGS RIGHT HERE"

SHE DECIDED TO SELL HER AS BUDS OF COLORS GALORE

AND SUDDENLY PEOPLE BEGAN BUYING MORE AND MORE

IF A FLOWER WAS WILTED SHE KNEW IT'S NEED

JUST HOW TO WATER, JUST HOW TO FEED

AND SURE ENOUGH PEOPLE BEGAN COMING JUST TO BUY HER GARDEN'S DELIGHT

THEY ALL SAW IT AS BEAUTIFUL AND THEY WERE RIGHT

SHE REVELLED IN EVERY FLOWER SHE EVER HEALED

THEN THE GOD-DAMNED GARDEN GREW SO MUCH WE HAD TO RENT US A FIELD

EVENTUALLY SHE GREW BORED OF BEING RICH

SO SHE SET AFIRE THAT FIELD, THE b*tch

NO MORE BLOSSOMS, NO BUDS NO EMERALD GREEN LEAVES

BUT THIS IS A STORY ONLY A FOOL BELIEVES

IT WAS ALL METAPHORICAL AND SOME MAY HAVE KNOWN

EACH CUSTMER WAS ANOTHER FLOWER SHE'D GROWN

AND THE GARDEN WAS WORTH AS MUCH AS PURE GOLD

THAT GARDEN WAS THE CORNER OF BROADWAY AND TENTH WHEREUPON SHE SOLD

Maybe smoking weed contributed a lot to creating this beauty of a poem, the beauty of creation you don't even know, but you obstinately refuse to admit there are other beauties of not your making, the beauties which come with every broken heart, not precisely yours, cause there are broken hearts other than yours that need rendering on paper, so that others could hear. Ever thought of listening to them, to others wishing to tell you and me, and us how lonely they feel deep inside? Do you feel their excruciating pain? Do you read what they write for your and my, and others' pleasure? And does a form matter in which this outcry of despair or joy finds its expression? We all here are masters of art of poetry, cause what matters is others feeling the same and crying the same, asking the same questions. They don't need instructions in writing poetry, just listen to the way they speak, to what they say, cause they speak the same, feel the same, and are often disheartened and destitute the same, and you are one of us, rank and file, no better or worse, running in your worn shoes in search for that elusive something called happiness or whatever you are looking for.

Had to comment on the beauty of Marika's comment.
Interesting read, sir.
Well, I am too old really, as I am 80 next birthday, but I wish do wish you luck in your quest for love and your poetry.
Weed causes paranoia and messes you up, you would be happier without it. Kind wishes,
CJ
