Jesus RomanHow are you so care free?
What do you mean? I’m just living.
Huh, such a simple mindset that you have.
Well yea, where is the need to complicate things?
I…I guess you’re right, I’ve just forgotten how to ride the wave over the years.
It looks like you’ve gotten serious with the things that you should be playing with.
I love your free spirit and miss your going with the flow attitude. I wish I was able to get back to that again!
Wow… they sure did some work on us huh?
What do you mean?
You’ve lost your light being concerned with society. You’ve tired to control your life so much that you’ve suffocated yourself. I am not gone but you are killing me. So, if you want to be what you used to be, you got to let go and let me breathe.Voting is closed

Jesus, this is such an inspiring poem. It is perfectly normal to wish we still had some traits of our younger self. If you truly want to transform yourself into having a carefree, go-with-the-flow mindset, then it will all be figured out in a process. The reality of change is that it doesn’t happen overnight. Even thought it takes time, you will…read more

Jesus RomanI fall into a trance… One where I live through my peaceful desires. Seeing myself drifting on the musical waves of my bass strings, croaking in harmony.
I land into another vision, one where I’m bringing peace with my fist. I train the martial art to release the heat. I take a left and a right to the jaw, slipping out of my trance. Rattle, Rattle, as I croak in harmony.
When I wake, I shake my head in disbelief… I made it. I’m back on my lily pad just drifting down stream. Take it easy Bufo!!!

Great work! I love the part where you said “Seeing myself drifting on the musical waves of my bass strings, croaking in harmony.” Music is amazing in that it can be interpreted in so many different ways and that people can have different tastes in what they listen to. I am so glad that music has inspired you in such a powerful way and that it has…read more

Exercise and music are two very peaceful places, and I find myself in another state when I am exposed to them. You really reminded me of my own experiences that I don’t always fully acknowledge or maybe I am not completely aware of in the moment. Thanks for sharing, and thank you for being part of our community.

Great use of imagery in your story, loved the first and last sections! Especially the last part where you wake up drifting on a lilly pad, it ties the whole piece together with the other bits where you are croaking in between dreams.
I’m assuming that’s your own drawing? I like the haphazard style, it’s a great compliment to the last part of…read more
