the sky is suddenly monet

begins beneath the solar plexus
wherein the sun is lurking
ripples building outward tumbling then
like joyous sky flower bouquets bursting
bouncing out and over Rageous dancing
envibratising atmosphere
setting dual merriments
to impossible imbobblements
a jigglement
a bubblement
of gigglings intoxicant
this fantastical array my dear
has turned the sky monet

That is a perfectly lovely image and rhyme and giggliness on a Monday morning. I need to read it fourteen times, I think… set me up for the day.

A ping-pong of colour

is this about sex again?! you’re going to have to post ratings next to the titles soon
I don’t really like to say what they are about, Samantha. All interpretations are correct because the poem is not the arrangements of words on the page but the event in the reader’s mind. However the reader responds in fine by me. But this one did begin life as a poem about giggling and its effect on certain anatomies of great lusciousness. And the idea that we live in a particularly prudish society.

Pure gingatao! Fantastical indeed – another one for the cork board in the office. When’s the next book coming out – I need to send relatives the cream of poetry for Christmas and gingatao is top of my list.
I was just talking about the next book this morning, Gabrielle. It’s underway. I’m looking for a freelance editor. I still haven’t worked out this ‘answering all the comments thingy’. But I figure if I answer the ones that are questions and then just do a big thankyou! for all the the compliments at the end, that will be alright?

Ooooh, this one made me break out in shivers of delight. You have painted a picture with your words.
Comment by Thomma Lyn— October 30, 2009 #
My goodness, you’ve gone and done it again and floored me with your creative written talent. If I could steal some words and keep them forever in my heart I would choose these, ‘this fantastical array my dear has turned the sky monet’. My goodness is about all I feel capable of saying… INCREDIBLE Paul!

Whenever I come to your blog, I am stunned.
I find myself sitting mute and still and stunned – almost afraid to read the next post because it might be even more dazzling.
Dazzled by words, that’s me. Dazzled by so much creativity, such verbose verve that I must prepare my brain, my emotions, for the next punch.
Tiny miracles indeed bloom here.
