PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I'VE BEEN  HEARING A LOT ABOUT HOW UNEXPRESSED EMOTIONS CAN CAUSE SO MANY HEALTH ISSUES. WE HAVE BEEN PROGRAMMED WRONG AT AN EARLY AGE...WATCH A YOUNG CHILD THAT HAS NOT BEEN SHAMED OR LEARNED TO BE ASHAMED OF EXPRESSING EMOTIONS...THEY CAN GO FROM ONE EXTREME TO ANOTHER BUT THEY LET IT OUT AND THEN IT'S DONE AND THEY MOVE ON...IF YOU INTERRUPT THE PROCESS THERE IS A LOT OF WORK TO BE DONE AND YOU ARE INHIBITING THEIR NATURAL REFLEX TO RELEASE THOSE EMOTIONS WHICH IS THE CORRECT WAY TO DO IT...JUST LET IT OUT NO SHAME...RELEASE IT AND LET IT GO...THE MORE PENT UP EMOTIONS THE MORE PROBLEMS YOU WILL HAVE...THEY HAVE TO COME OUT SOME TIME SO IT IS BEST TO LET THEM COME OUT AS SOON AS THEY NEED TO AND BE DONE WITH IT....I REMEMBER I ASKED AN ACTRESS I WORKED WITH BCKSTAGE ON A PLAY WHO WENT TO JULLIARD WHAT SHE FELT WAS THE BEST ADVICE SHE GOT ABOUT ACTING THERE AND HER REPLY WAS...SUSPEND YOUR SHAME....MAKES A WHOLE LOT OF SENSE. IF YOU SUSPEND YOUR SHAME YOU CAN EXPRESS YOUR EMOTIONS AND NOT ONLY YOU WILL FEEL THEM BUT PEOPLE WILL BE MOVED BY THEM TOO AND THEY CAN EMPATHISE AND FEEL THOSE EMOTIONS TOO AND HELP THEM RELEASE WHEN THEY CRY AT A SAD MOVIE OR LAUGH AT FUNNY STUFF...RELEASE EMOTIONS...

INTERESTING TO WONDER HOW PEOPLE COME ACROSS SOMETHING YOU WROTE AND HOW IT MAY AFFECT THEM IN SOME WAY....YOU CAN PUT IT OUT THERE BUT  NEVER KNOW WHO MAY SEE IT  AND IF THAT  IS JUST RANDOM OR MEANT TO BE FOR SOME REASON...JUST KEEP WRITING AND PUTTING IT OUT THERE AND LET THE UNIVERSE TAKE CARE OF THE REST I GUESS...

STILL LISTENING TO ALICE'S ADVENTURES IN WONDERLAND ON AUDIBLE...SO MANY QUESTIONS ARE BEING ASKED...IT REMINDS ME OF WHEN MY NEPHEWS WERE  AT THAT AGE WHERE THEY ASK WHY ABOUT EVERY LITTLE THING AND YOU FINALLY JUST GET FLABBERGASTED AND JUST SAY BECAUSE I SAID SO....WHAT KIND OF ANSWER IS THAT...THE KIND THAT MAKES NO SENSE CUZ YOU DON'T  HAVE THE ANSWER AND LOSE YOUR PATIENCE....YOU CAN'T POSSIBLY EXPLAIN EVERY LITTLE THING...ALTHO I REMEMBER BEING AT THE AGE WHERE YOU THINK YOUR PARENTS KNOW EVERYTHING AND ARE SHOCKED WHEN YOU GET TO THE AGE WHERE YOU REALIZE THEY DON'T...JUST CUZ SOMEONE IS OLDER DOESN'T NECESSARILY MAKE THEM ANY WISER...MAYBE MORE EXPERIENCES AND OPINIONS BASED ON YOUR EXPERIENCES BUT NOT  ALWAYS WISER...JUST SHARING PERSPECTIVE OR LESSONS LEARNED IN HINDSIGHT....

LISTENING TO ALICE'S ADVENTURES IN WONDERLAND ON AUDIBLE NARRATED BY SCARLETT JOHANSEN....

I MUST SAY THOSE WORDS BRING CURIOSITY WITH VELOCITY...SORRY TO LEAVE YOU HANGING...DO I DETECT A BIT OF MISCHIEF HERE...HMMM

WATCHING G.I. JANE

THIS POEM JUST CAME

I LOVE THE SOUND OF WAVES

I GUESS IT DOESN'T MATTER WHERE IT COMES FROM

I SEEM TO BE ABLE TO RECALL THEM AT WILL ANYTIME I WANT TO HEAR THEM I CAN HEAR THEM IN MY  HEAD...

CAN YOU IMAGINE

CAME AS AN AFTERTHOUGHT LINE TO ADD OR JUST USE FOR THE COMMENT PART HERE...IT WORKS EITHER WAY I GUESS IF IT WERE ADDED OR NOT...I GUESS IF YOU CAN'T IMAGINE THEN  IT MIGHT NOT MAKE MUCH SENSE TO YOU BUT THEN YOU WOULD NOT BE HERE READING POETRY WOULD YOU...

THIS ORIGINALLY ENDED WITH YOUR EARTHLY TRANCE AND I LIKED THAT BUT THEN THE LAST FIVE LINES CAME ALONG ALMOST AS AN AFTERTHOUGHT SO I SEPARATED THE AFTERTHOUGHT FROM THE ORIGINAL POEM AS AN AFTERTHOUGHT...IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN IN THE AUTHORS COMMENTS SECTION HERE BUT DECIDED TO MAKE IT A TAG ALONG PART OF THE POEM TO BE READ AFTER A PAUSE FROM THE MAIN POEM...THIS STUFF HAS A MIND OF ITS OWN HONESTLY...
