No. 1!
As if it were
forever that they move, that we
keep moving -

Under a wan sky where
as the lights went on a star
pierced the hze and now
follows steadily
a constant
above our six lanes
the dreamlike continuum...

And the people - ourselves!
the humans from inside the
cars apparent
only at gasoline stops
unsure,
eyeing at each other

drink coffee hastily at the
slot machines & hurry
back to the cars
vanish
into them forever, to
keep moving -

Houses now & then beyond the
sealed road, the trees/trees, bushes
passing by, passing
the cars that
keep moving ahead of
us, past us, pressing behind us
and
over left, those that come
toward us shining too brightly
moving relentlessly

in six lanes, gliding
north & south, speeding with
a slurred sound -

No. 2!
Love like a juggler comes to play his prize
And all minds draw his wonders to admire,
To see how cunningly he, wanting eyes,
Can yet decieve the best sight of desire;
The wanton child, how he can feign his fire
So prettily as none sees his disguise,
How finely do his tricks, while we fools hire
The badge and office of his tyrannies,
For in the end, such juggling he doth make
As her our hearts, instead of eyes, doth take;
For men can only by their sleights abuse
The sight with nimble and delightful skill,
But if he play, his gain is our lost will;
Yet, childlike, we cannot his sport refuse.

No. 3!
"Hope" is the thing with feathers -
That perches the soul -
And sings the tune without the words -
And never stops - at all -

And sweetest - in the Gale - is heard
And sore must be the storm -
That could abash the little Bird
That kept so many warm -

I've heard it in the chillest land -
And on the strangest Sea -
Yet, never in Extremity,
It asked a crumb - of Me.

No. 4!
Come sleep, O sleep, the certain knot of peace,
The baiting place of wit, the balm of woe
The poor man's wealth, the prisoner's release,
The indifferent judge between the high and low;
With shield of proof shield me from out the prease
Of those fierce darts Despair at me doth throw:
O make in me those civil wars to cease;
I will good tribute pay, if thou do so.
Take thou of me smooth pillows, sweetest bed,
A chamber deaf to noise, and blind to light,
A rose garland, and a weary head:
And if these things, as being thine by right,
Move not thy heavy gracfe, thou shalt in me,
Livelier than elsewhere Stella's image see.

GREAT POEMS! i was so bored i decided to go online to read some poems to improve my comprehension of poems :) :)

1. Rationality

My friend said, "scientific rationality is the only thing that makes sense,
For subjective feeling and personal belief there can be no defense."
I said, "I understand this is your feeling and belief,
I shall not argue, to avoid any unwanted future grief."

haha i like the twist. :)

2. The Moon

You can take the moon by the spoonful
or in capsules every two hours.
It's useful as a hypnotic and sedative
and besides it relieves
those who have had too much philosophy.
A piece of moon in your purse
works better than a rabbit's foot.
Helps you find a lover
or get rich without anyone knowing,
and it staves off doctors and clinics.
You can give it to children like candy
when they've not gone to sleep,
and a few drops of moon in the eyes of the old
helps them to die in peace.

Put a new leaf of moon
under your pillow
and you'll see what you want to.
Always carry a little bottle of air of the moon
to keep you from drowning.
Give the key to the moon
to prisoners and the disappointed.
For those who are sentenced to death
and for those who are sentenced to life
there is no better tonic than the moon

love moons! pretty pretty. but stars are prettier laaaa. moons represent hope aww its like a good friend always there for you :)
