Why do I feel lucid in this poem when when I'm never sure where I am?
It seems to have an implied base of perception (but who am I to pry?).
Yet, none of that seems to matter after I'm wisked off into the Archetypal while you are announcing your new ratios (something about men and women). More interesting still, is this thrill of heights, and looking down, noticing why in this poem the concrete is vague, and perhaps nondescript tho integrally related. And then to come down again--hey there is an earth! What a ride; let's do it agian!

for the child that loved you is now the woman who holds
your memory in the space of her heart where the
fine memories--the most precious memories, are stored

What an awesome ending! Other than that I am speechless! Happy Thanksgiving my dear Sinome! I will catch up with you on Friday! Love you so!! xoxoxoxoxo

Wow - what an outpouring of introspection and emotion!  You must feel exhausted or renewed after writing a poem like this....  You spill your emotions out to us with such raw honesty, tenderness, and ease.

achingly beautiful and brings back the memories of that painful first love
I met him years later. He was nothing like I remembered.

Princess Marta, your mythical prince to have these qualities

" ... your mind containing all
present and ancient knowledge and depth,
which woman, as woman, cannot know", and  

"human and holy
until love explodes in a million blazing lights
of wonder and tired release" .....
this desert prince here finds brilliantly beautiful reminiscences. Take care of you xoxo
