Thus far my journey has been fast and frequently furious - a series of too-soon starts with sudden stops which can be likened to first attempts at driving a stick shift.
On this path, I encountered an extraordinary assortment of souls ~ seers, seekers, sheiks, shakers and movers, politicians, pilots, dancers, singers, healers, meditators, mediators, consummate travelers, artists, writers, thinkers, teachers, producers, idealists and cynics as well as plotters of good and evil.
My current fellow travelers are world citizens with virtual voices who share their life-trips by retrospection. A varied group of travelers who poem, photograph, fiction, rant and art the past and present while challenging the future.
These are interesting times with interesting fellows!
before the after
the bite of an auger
punched black holes
in the blinding gloom
mango blush flooded
the argent sky
blamed the yellowed map
mabe blue Morse code
kissing the catbrier
loosed the prick of reality
the final chart shines
under stella de ora and
bliss leaves no sign

I especially like the line," These are interesting times with interesting fellows!"
Beautiful writing... I really enjoyed reading it. Thank you.
this line "clicked" with me.....
"a series of too-soon starts with sudden stops which can be likened to first attempts at driving a stick shift"
nice piece!
I agree with Marcella "These are interesting times with interesting fellows!" was my favorite line too. Interesting to think of all of us as "virtual" travelers too...what a journey and a path we have created...I love your poetry and am glad to call you fellow Idahoan.
The internet has certainly made our worlds more colorful as beautifully expressed in your poem.
I love the poem, it's so beautifully painted, so perfectly strung. The prose is nice too!
Great post. I am proud to be one of your fellow travelers.
Sue,
We do meet a variety of souls along the byways of our journeys don't we? Getting lost even with a map can bring surprising satisfactions to end the day brightly.
People and words; two of my favorite things. ;)

"Punched black holes in the blinding gloom..."
Wow, I love your poem.
