Morning Beautiful People!
Not feeling bloggish today so, I’m gonna drop a couple of my favorite pieces from a poet/friend and then jet. I’ve been harrassing encouraging that brother to spring his website on the world so folks can just come by, saturate themselves in the poetics, and chill. We’ll see.

Without further adieu, I give you Cali’s own…Ted Bell. (Um, Mr. Man, I know I said I’d post “one” of my favorites but ‘member what I had said about not liking odd numbers? ‘K *giggles*). Oh yeah, his poetry collection is “To C, From G”.

DREAMER

Dreamers dance
on the shores of insanity
always believing that
every roaring wave
can turn into a gentle
pool of reality

when I tell my dreams of you
some think of me as crazy
because I loved you
even before you kniew me
yesterday’s dreams had me living
in your early morning smiles
yesterday’s imaginations
had us tangled and entwined
within eternal bliss where
kissing your lips is my first,
second and third wish

my dreams creep
slowly leaking into reality
and soon…You and me
become…”We”

and we make light
and we make love
and we make life
and our souls take love,
embracing it by the seams
so these doubters can see
that to be truly insane
is not having the ability
…to dream
