Poem: Limitless
FOREIGNER
An amazing poet whom I resonate with…
Crushing otherness today
Detached from my own skin
Only breathing reminds me
Displaced am I in this world
Castaway, renegade, exile
Standing outside of fleshy throngs
Misunderstood and misunderstanding
Craving human absorption
Desirous of the fool’s banality
Embargoed on intimacy, acceptance, love
For those sensations are for the accepted
The elect, the citizen…. the enthralled
~~Feral Goddess, A. Green-Muilenburg

Poem: Knowledge
Personal Note: I was disappointed in the fact I noticed a spelling mistake, that the ink on this machine was very faint and that the machine mechanics were filthy and sticking as it needs a service. However, the person I wrote it for liked it for its imperfection when I offered to redo it. So here it is, made from a 1921 Underwood I was gifted and used for the first time this week.
