Awakening Poem by Doris Cornago
Awakening
Always strive for fresh wholesomeness
Need not show your deep cleavage
Or too much skin to get attention
Just be kind, thoughtful, sweet
In words, don't cross swords
Don't nitpick each other's
Hair, simple honesty
Is fair but despair
Not when met
Florid anger
Give your
Opinion
When
Asked
But
Other
Wise be
Hushed to
Silence, be
Forewarned in
Advance that no
One wants gumption
Too much inattention
In a crowd can get your
Goat, but best not applaud
When you feel crappy, walk out
Not your monkeys, nor your donkeys
Don't reach for the trapeze if you can't
Swing, remarks can sting, can also kill you
Thank you to a fellow poet for bringing me water in a bucket to bathe in, Robert Murray Smith.
Mix with your own kind, trying to please by being someone's mascot is poison to your soul. No one's mediocre or stupid, maybe just a little timid. Understanding and patience bridge islands, cultivate friendship in foreign lands as poems do to open hearts and minds.
Anger, despair, stress, unexpresessed anger, sadness, emotional pain - the body has a way of balling itself up against an intruder, protecting itself against what it perceives as an attack. Like an oyster creating a pearl against a piece of irritant in its soft gel like substance, your body reacts to pain in a protective way. That's it - live healthy by what you eat but in how you handle emotions.
