Cyberspace is - or can be - a good, friendly and egalitarian place to meet.

Cyberspace

Cyberspace
Acdc
(Stiff Upper Lip Tour Edition)
Oh yeah!
High tail in your face
Black hole rockin' the place
Hong Kong videos
Big bang mad to blow
Into cyberspace
Look out I'm gonna race
Eight ball in the pack
Big bone juke box jack
Hot star burnin' it up
Full moon runnin' amok
Into cyberspace
Look out I'm gonna race
Blow you into cyberspace
Blow you all into cyberspace
Gotta get out, get out of this place
Blow a big hole into cyberspace
Octane down the track
Flat chat smash the mach
Blow out burnin' hot
Mile high take you right to the top
Into cyberspace
Look out I'm gonna race
Blow you into cyberspace
Blow you all into cyberspace

Cyberspace

dahling, we meet in cyberspace
and in there no one asks what is our status
and for sure, honey, i will like it
as you like it too, because in there we are just nothing
but minds
thoughts and words and phrases
clauses: take me with you
mind making love with your mind
bursting ecstasies, moaning imaginations,

i get wet on my pants and you get wet somewhere
i don't care if there is rain or flood
of emotions

after the explosions of our secret wishes
we simply lay there
thinking about nothing
embracing this emptiness that for the meantime
at least for a short while
shall be filled by this cyberspace presence

in snow and sand

Cyberspace

To live in Cyberspace amongst the wireless whizzung binary
Puts a mask upon our face and affords us anonymity 

Its amazing how the jargon travels at the speed of light
So we shouldn't press the send button until constructed right

Some people cyber bully, some  people cyber brag 
Some people cyber buy and sell, and  some just cyber shag

The magic of the net keeps us 'caught up' and collected
It's criss crosses the globe, ensuring loved ones stay connected

Is it safe to live here and frolic in the mesh?
I'd say it's good for humans but it isn't skin and flesh!

Even FaceTime apps and Skype don't have the same appeal 
You can't give hugs in cyberspace, there's just no touchy feel!

I like the world it's opened up, It more than has a place
But let's not get so caught up we forget our open space.

Sunshine

Sometimes I can't get enough
Ooh, of you
This friendly game keeps getting rough
Think I'm breaking through
I cannot hide this well
This well as I should
There's always something left to tell
Tell me is it good?
I see you
Do you see me too?
Close your eyes and meet me in the sunshine
Come on through
I will find you
Close your eyes and meet me in the sunshine
I guess you chose a different road
I am not aware
I got the one that's been closed
Shut down for repair
I hold a highway in my head
Ruling of a king
Driving away the things I've said
And I've said everything
I see you
Do you see me too?
Close your eyes and meet me in the sunshine
Come on through
I will find you
Close your eyes and meet me in the sunshine
Meet me in the sunshine
Meet me in the... sunshine
There's something better in this heat
Getting it on
I feel the warmth, I feel the greed
And I fear the fall
I hold this window wide enough
To keep the whole world
I want to spit out all this stuff
And keep the girl
I see you
Do you see me too?
Close your eyes and meet me in the sunshine
Come on through
I will find you
Close your eyes and meet me in the sunshine
Meet me in the sunshine
Meet me in the sunshine

It's been a great place to get in touch with what people are really thinking. And to make contact with readers and other writers. Egalitarian, wide open, like the Wild West!

A gaoler instead of a gaol bird-anagram poem

If adorable as adore gloating
Adorable, original, fatso aged;
Good! A safe, adorable trailing,
A dear goofball as originated.


Good! A fair stale load bearing
Adorable of egalitarian dogs,
Fool database or agile daring
A feared aboriginal toad logs.


Alas! Good of aged libertarian;
Alas! Fair, dogged elaboration;
Ago glorified adorable Satan;
So flailed garbage adoration;


Or a garbage, fool and idealist
Of laggard ideas elaboration;
A fool, adorable, daring ageist
Bolder, ga-ga falsie adoration;


Good God! Ease fatal librarian,
Fool ga-ga, idle, sad aberration;
Good! A bold fears egalitarian
Flag, adores ideal abrogation;


Good! Safe, adorable, liar, giant;
Star, ga-ga ideal, fool debonair;
As adored fair, boogie, gallant;
Agile odor and sabotage flair.

The title is a line of the poem ''Wages'' by D.H. Lawrence. The poem is the anagram of the title.

0106 To Rilke

Unending one, you’ve shown myself to me.

In the place you wrote into being
where the image of God made Man
and the image of Man made God
meet – there, in that friendly place

where such daunting names quite disappear,
where the eternal becomes practical
and the Word is heard as if I spoke it,
and myself is every self,

and I am free of all preconceptions,
neither Christian, Jew, Moslem, Hindu –
the place where all may be discussed,
where all may be heard,

where two voices become one certainty,
where unicorns may be seen,
where there are no secrets,
where poetry arises

in that place
you’ve shown myself to me.

A friendly smile

A friendly smile

Just your friendly smile
When I think of, it makes
Me smile and afloat on the Nile

Absent, no matter long it takes
Your smile stands vividly still
In my memory and can it fill

Offered, your friendly smile
Is lovely for a being my kind
To love you I made up my mind

With your friendly smile
None of smiles can your place
Take and shrink back my pace

When We Made Love

i made love to
a doctor of medicine
in cyberspace
sort of floating and
swimming in black space
feeling this black hole
within us
i felt like
a stethoscope
hearing the beatings
of my heart
but she loves most
and opts for
this colonoscopy
thing
after the
endoscopy
prelude
i complained
because
what i really
wanted
is something like
a bikini cut
something frontal
not this pedal

whatever
but i felt lousy after
when she said that even
in cyberspace
i must wear
condom.

Not a Good Place to Die

Not a Good Place to Die

Not a good place to die,
Airless room.
Blank walls.

Not a good place to die,
Here death hovers.
A disinfectant smell.

Not a good place to die,
Hid away from all.
Arid stark.

Not a good place to die,
No cool breeze.
Warm sun on face.

Not a good place to die,
Alone and scared.
Cold dark.

Not a good place to die
But die he did.
Non mourned.

On Not Writing a Poem

and sometimes I’m sitting, quiet,
wondering whether a poem somewhere
would like to speak through me
and it doesn’t

but the stillness as I wait -
that’s good.

Then just occasionally, when
I’m not visited by a poem,
I visit – without planning - Poetry.

It’s a place without a name
where many things meet:
there’s space, and hope,
and possibility, and, out of the present,
a future growing..
and something that’s not less, or
not less bright, than gold;

where all the poems that have been written
mix on friendly terms with those
that are yet to come;

with a sense of company, humanity,
very undemanding, and what Pooh Bear
would call, Everybody Listening…

and there’s no claim, no need
to write about I Was There
and Experienced This, and do you wish
you had too, and here’s my name
so modestly after a line space

and it’s very refreshing, even
reassuring in its way. Maybe
if we were back in, oh, Greek times?
I would wash, put on a white robe,
take a sweet cake, some oil, some wine, an olive branch,

walk slowly up to the temple,
tap the road dust off my sandals,
then between the cool pillars,
place the offering at the feet
of the golden goddess; silent
somewhere between thanks
and praise and the place called prayer;

and then I’d return home, peaceful
as if blessed. A more poetic image? Perhaps
it’s the same place: the mind
was there, the body’s here.

It’s good. You were there too.

Mr. Radio

Hello, mr. radio, you friendly station,
So glad of your company, your morning music,
My wife she ran away, she left our home,
And though you're here with me, i'm on my own.
Hello, mr. radio, you friendly speaker,
You played my request today, request to see her
Your voice comes riding home across the air,
You travel 'round the world, but still you're here.
I heard on the news today the world is no good,
But if she returns today mine could be so good
I look into the sky, your waves rush by,
The weather man has lied, it makes me cry.
Hello, mr. radio, do i disturb you?
Sometimes i forget my place, i seem to know you
I miss you when you close, you'll never know,
And when your programmes go, i'm on my own.

Meet Me At No Special Place

(and Ill be there at no particular time)
(pyle/robinson/terker)
Baby, we two cant get along,
Im never right, youre never wrong.
So meet me at no special place,
And Ill be there at no particular time.
Baby, it just aint common sense
Mixin up love with arguments.
So meet me at no special place,
And Ill be there at no particular time.
Im all fed up on stormy weather,
Im going where its june.
Heres hopin I see you never
cause if I do, that will be too soon.
Now that Ive put my heart on ice,
Missing you will seem paradise.
So meet me at no special place,
And Ill be there at no particular time.
~interlude~
Youd better bring along your glasses
In case Im hard to find,
Youll wish you could see before you
As clearly as you can see behind.
You can turn back in retropect
Of the times you stuck out your neck.
So meet me at no special place,
And Ill be there at no particular time.
All we do is make up
Then quarrel all over again,
But this is it ~ the breakup
From now on, you knew me when...
So meet me at no special place,
And Ill be there at no particular time!

You & I Will Meet Again

You and I will meet again
When were least expecting it
One day in some far off place
I will recognize your face
I wont say good-bye my friend
For you and I will meet again
I heard you singing to no one
I saw you dancing all alone
One day you belonged to me
Next day I just wouldnt know
Someday all the rules will bend
And you and I will meet again
Ive got a feeling
Ive got a feeling so strong
Maybe someday our paths will cross
A red-winged hawk is circling
The blacktop stretches out for days
How could I get so close to you
And still feel so far away?
I hear a vo ice come on the wind
Sayin you and I will meet again
I dont know how, I dont know when
But you and I will meet again

To my lost one (villanelle)

If you come from a unknown place
from where I am, as if thrown
into my life and we again meet face-to-face

it may be by God’s grace
and we may leave the paths well trodden and known.
If you come from a unknown place

wherever it may be, carrying just one suitcase
I will be happy to meet you, if you come alone
into my life and we again meet face-to-face

and if you want to, we can disappear without a trace
be on our own, without anyone.
If you come from a unknown place

and walk into my embrace,
my lost one, come without a chaperone
into my life and we again meet face-to-face

our pasts will be erased
and all unhappiness will be gone,
if you come from a unknown place
into my life and we again meet face-to-face.

Born Cross-eyed

Seems like Ive been here before,
Fuzzy then and still so obscure, good-bye, good-bye, good-bye, good-bye.
And I dont want to see anybody cry,
Meet me some mornin in the sweet by and by, by and by, by and by.
Song commin on,
So pleasin to see, come and gone, good-bye, good-bye, good-bye, good-bye,
You dont have to tell me why,
Meet me some mornin in the sweet by and by, by and by, by and by.
It aint cause Im the only one left darlin,
Bout the time the sun rises west,
Feelin groovy, lookin fine.
Think Ill come back here again,
Every now and then from time to time.
My how lovely you are, my dear,
The ball game has gone much too far my dear,
Sing to me, do your thing to me,
Ill meet you some mornin, meet you some mornin,
In the sweet by and by, by and by, by and by.

12/09.....Meet Me At The Ocean

Meet Me at the Ocean.........

Meet me at the ocean
where the water meets the sand
Our world alone,
this is our eternity

I dream of this place
we have never been
You are my only escape from reality

Endless sleepless nights
take me to this place
Waves crashing restlessly
on the beach
Where I can feel your body
and see your face
You are all I need
but still out of reach

Meet me at the ocean
A place that is my home
High tide will come
Will come and carry us
Away to the unknown

My Ex-girlfriend

must have i done her such an
unforgettable wrong?

after 25 years her name pops up
somewhere in cyberspace and i tried to call her back
not for anything else, but for friendship's sake of the good old days,

without giving me a little dignity of an answer
she leaves right away

to her, i am non-existent, a non-entity, not even a name of someone
she used to love.
