I never realized
what I meant to you.
What you’ve done to me
and what I’ve done to you
is joy
is pain
there was weakness
and there was hope
there was sorry
but lots of joy.
It hurts to move
it hurts to think
of you
without you.
But sometimes
there’s more solace
in the sanctuary
of solitude
how to use:
as common as carbon is a poetic stream of consciousness.
there are 3 categories of “poems”:
(i) heteroglossic synesthesia (complete poems)
(ii) hobonyms (words with no homes)
(iii) mind jerky (thoughts to chew on)
after reading a poem you have 3 options to “turn the page”
“RANDOM” – takes you to a random poetic expression
#hastags – take you to another random poem with the same theme or motif
#category – takes you to a random poem in the same category
“no one can step in the same river twice, for it’s not the same river and they are not the same person” – possibly Heraclitus
just as no one can step in the same river twice, no one can have the same experience of “as common as carbon” twice
