 Catch Him If You Can

By Neil Fleischmann
G-d lifts up and counts
every single star
and mends sadness of
every broken heart
Tread slowly enough
and you will catch Him
feeding the raven bread
giving the deer water

 Gusto Va Mare

Give me a brick wall oven
European Decor
Fresh fish
empty space
and a dear friend
and even root canal fades away

9 yrs ago



A penny earned may be a penny saved,
Or a lesson onto the heart engraved
Money can be valuable like time
But it can also be a blank slated mime
Don't count on that bird in your hand
You don't know the bush G-d has planned
You can think whatever they tell you to think
But a chain can be carried by it's strongest link
If to your true self you are not blind
A good man can be easy to find

Poetry is it's sophistication and attitude, it's creating a mood, it's a disgraced Newt Gingrich, or a more recent image, it's knowing what to cut, but first unloading my gut, it's what get's me through the day, it's my non prosaic way, it's what keeps me awake with fright, and then releases me for the night, it's me saying "G-d bless," it's neat and it's a mess.

Friends except...
For Facebook
The long distance loneliness that cuts so deep
The elusiveness of peace, the need for good sleep
The darkness that through the light facade seeps
The monotonous counting of paradoxical sheep
The things we wonder about each-other and don’t say
The look in your eyes that makes me look away
The courage it takes to just face another day
The simple complexities of the power play

Colder than water
of the coldest kind
Kind is what you used to be
back when you were mine
Now you’re colder than a Rolling Stones song
Cold and you together feels so wrong

Here are 2 poems I wrote a little earlier, when I had more energy and was inspired by something going on around me-
Confidence
What you show,
How you cover
What you don't know
---------------------------
Agenda
What you're thinking
While pretending
That you're listening
