The 48 Rules of POWER, Robert Greene

2010-08-21T15:57:00.000-07:00

This is an awesome book. The "laws" are
great habits to adopt. Also, the little
parables in red make good conversation.

The 48 Rules of Power

#4 - Always say less than necessary.The more you say, the more common you seem.
Basically, you will often have more power
when you zip your lips.

Spiritual truth: Proverbs 2:11 -
Discretion will preserve you.

...

#9 - Win through your actions, never through argument.
Words are a dime a dozen. No one can argue with demonstrated proof.
The truth is generally seen, rarely heard.

Spiritual truth: Proverbs 17:14 The beginning of strife is likereleasing water.

...

#19 - Know who you are dealing with. Do not offend or decieve thewrong person.Learn others. Take into account their pride and insecurities.

Spiritual truth: Proverbs 20:5 Counsel in the heart of man andwoman is like deep water.

More Power Laws will be added along the way. However, pick up this
book, supremely interesting.

On Loving Rain

I'm the highest

note drifting into

your mind

allow me to open up

your sweet cells

one-by-one

and live there

whispering poems on

the tenderest parts

of your flesh

until there comes

a time

when others say

to you:

how are you?

and you'll speak

in lilacs

confessing feelings

as perfect and small

the rain drops

hidden inside your

mauve petals...

if only she would open her heart
as easily as she opens her body
stand blindfolded and believing

falling in a moment's length
into love inescapable

"a love like ours will never die,
as long as I have you near me..."
~

tonight she dances
with her shadow

deep amber drink
half gone, my facade slips as

her lipstick forms a
ruby wet heart

at the thick edge of the glass
and I feel a desire to ...

my own heart,
unprotected

this bar drenched in candles
our bodies dip in passionate song

I taste the first tear
my heart leaps

as our masks fall away...
morning breaks

and I love her.

Five Languages of Love

2010-04-01T16:58:00.000-07:00

An enlightening read!

According to Gary Chapman there are five languages of
love and we each have a primary language of love that
particulary answers our emotional soul.

1. Words of Affirmation - hearing positive words about yourself.

2. Gifts - receiving gifts that reflect who you are.

3. Acts of Service - having a loved one do something for you.

4. Qualitity Time - spending a long chunk of time with a loved one.
also under this category: quality conversation or quality listening.

5. Physical Touch - physical affection, not connected to sex.

Naturally, most of us may say we'll take all of the above. However,
not always true. Many of us can do without one, two or three of
the languages on the list. However, there is usually one or two that
we must have or we do not connect to the person on an emotional
or romantic level.

The trick is to figure out your primary language, usually it is how
we interact - we put out what we want,{ that is not written in
stone, sometimes we show love one way and desire to be shown
love in another way.}

A good way is to remember how a past lover or loved one made
you feel - truly loved. Often why we can't forget certain people -
because they read us completely right and followed through
with action.

Anyway, figure out what you need and then decipher what
a lover or loved one: mom, dad, bro, sis, best friend, good nabe,
favorite co-worker may need to feel emotionally ecstatic.
Emotinally ecstatic = open, safe and ready for committed love.

As well as improved relationships with family members we
previously felt didn't love us or vice versa {old friends, etc.}
A matter of love language clueless-ness.

And if you have children - don't forget to take into consideration
their primary language of love - mucho important.

I enjoyed the book and find myself having a good time discerning
my primary love language - I have two, actually {so there} & the
love language of the people in my life that matter to me.

An excellent book and very smart to keep in the home library.

Nadege

Of course this entire post is a huge paraphrase, and my perceptions
naturally may have slid in.

i hear your love murmuring quietly

a nun's prayer, for me only
your form dominated by my shadow

your mouth seeks mine
and your face becomes steeped in desire

i can't get enough
of the sound of your murmurs, so i pull you

further down our faithful bed
until your triangle meets my sweetest lips

and all you have ever murmured
is answered.

undressing chloe

2010-01-16T05:25:00.000-08:00

her braid ripples around
the brass headboard
her neck as vulnerable
as leda's, the small

ache of the throat
caught

she murmurs
half-finished
poems

her eyes slow-blink wide
like a beloved doll I once had
as a child

and never got over
Chloe

she was named chloe
because I adored
dressing and undressing her
she was all about the clothes

and those deep pool eyes
my god, the lashes alone
drove me insane!

the bow of her fruit-stained
stilled mouth
with nothing to do but wait

I have my real-life chloe, now
all eyes, quiet lips,
with very little to say accept

shadow poems written in her mind
never birthed upon paper
little pieces of her she plants
inside my ear

she is held, bound at an angle
worthy of a prima ballerina
I trace her slim form

my leather gloves are scapel-like
merciless in profound attention
to the skin of her, I become a cartographer

make love to her
in any way that pleases me
charting hills and valleys
wander about drawn-out discoveries
with my hot mouth which is rarely quiet

her sublime acquiesence thrills
past boundaries previously set
in the small life she had
before she returned to me

I listen now as chloe's voice travels
beyond her sweet poems to arias filling the room

the wet roses
she walked in with
shiver their petals
onto the glass coffee table

red petals echoing
the sticky blood drops
of a virgin

clinging hysterically...

Paula is uncontrollable, words spill from her
lips as a wild river into the ocean. Sydney's
words are broken sea shells; smaller than
the pieces of Paula's heart. All Sydney dare
do is hold her love's moist face and caress
the trembling body; pleading forgiveness
with shaky hands.

The sun rises, warmth spreads gently
through the lover's bodies, healing their
pain and sealing their love, again.

can you hear her whimper ?
following the sound
most yearned for
i only want to cover her pain
but i'm selfish too
touch the part that hurts her most
past her perceived endurance
relish the tender response
drowning her before she realizes
being so steeped in emotions
she fights hard to keep below the surface
torturing herself in the past.

patience, darling:
life gives like the skilled lover
languid, in sighing stages
until each inch of skin is charged
and you implode with Joy.

her
zest dissolves
my garnet trinket

cherries on snow

here

in the snow
a faint scent of roses
I find you

waiting

your lips an impression
blurred cherries
spill inside my downy

taste

Time, passing by Joan McCormick

Midnight ends, darker.
The sky speckles stars.
And dawn unspoiled begins.

Morning, noon, evening,
As light falls into night, lost.
Grays deepen, violets bleed,

And moments are short and breathy.

for sylvia

and the fragrance
of fresh peach rises
again
seeks the flamed fingers
fiends for the hot lips
of her Muse

to squeeze out the seeds
like reluctant poems,
half-written in purgatory
waiting
to be dropped word-by-word
into this glass jar

burn

tea-
stained fingertips
burn my thighs

glow

2009-03-01T08:08:00.000-08:00

blue moon's soft face slips
between the sheets
glows my warm entrance

scent

2009-01-10T17:50:00.000-08:00

on her way to slipping down
she falls to the floor
her scent moistens my feet
