loving spirit
for olori
every outward or perceptible grace,
every indication, reflective or
direct, of an unconscious purposiveness,
of consciousness & a dense, personal &
collective identity into which i
escape & into which i languish; to which
i return after sleep, fever or trance &
coruscate an ineffable unity
that can only make itself clumsily known
in the aggregate, molecular fabric
of my skin & in these big arms that hold u.

ReplyDeletego to sleep, yard man
ReplyDeletehe loves me,.....oh, he only thinks he loves me!What ever it is, ....I like it !
ReplyDeleteI think that this poem is describing the joy that someone feels when they are in the arms of the person that they love. No matter what you are doing you are thinking of being with that person.
ReplyDeleteI liked this poem. It should how much a man can really love a girl and not be scared of showing his emotions. How he goes to sleep but as soon as he wakes up she is the first thought in his head. It gives you hope that someday you will find that one person that makes you feel like that. It shows you what a true soulmate has and feels for you and that feeling should be vise versa.
ReplyDeleteThis poem is telling me of a man, possibly you, professor McNair, being indulged in love and lost in someone's soul.
ReplyDeleteWhat I got from this poem is unconditional love. This soulmate is the one person or thing that you can be sure about without doubting yoursel or second guessing yourself. When you know, you know and no matter what comes it will not shake the relationship. Knowing each others thoughts without having to say a word.
ReplyDeleteThis poem sound like it the joy someone feels when they are love. Something one is in a relations and the fear of not finding anything else is so overwhelmed; therefore, they won’t go out there and experience anything different. There are many of those relationships in which the person will stay with each other just because but not because it is good for them. It is the spirit of hope.
ReplyDeleteloving spirit:
ReplyDeletethe elicit combination of over powerful and simple souls
intertwined in the pure and the intention
the beauty in the sour
and the sweet sorrow of not being able to hold the moment
but capture the ever breathing surrender to the debilitating aroma
for you are defeated ever so more you feel accomplished
This poem shows the deep, over all thought consuming feelings that take over a person when they are head over heels in love with someone. They are the first thought in the morning and last thought at night. They are your soulmate. The one person you can tell anything to without the fear of being rejected or judged. It's the feeling of not wanting anything or anyone else besides that person, because you know they are ultimately what you want and what makes you happy.
ReplyDeleteThis poem is very touching. It always feels nice to be in the arms of the person you love with all your heart.
ReplyDeleteI really liked this poem. It may me feel loved by that special someone. It's that feeling of being in love and the way that person holds and wraps you with their big arms. It's that sensation of being in love with one another.
ReplyDeleteThis poem was amazing its very romantic how it explains the love that man feels for a women and how important it is to be in the arms of the one you love. Its the beauty of falling in love and having everything around you, but the only importance is that soul mate.
ReplyDeleteI think this poem is explaining the feeling that one has when they are in the arms or even in the present of someone that they love. How their whole essence change and they feel secured and love with that special someone
ReplyDeletewhat i like about this poem is that it describes how things should be when your in love. how you should act, how you should feel.
ReplyDeleteThis poem reinds of someone sensitive. Their thoughts of a happy spiritis to love and care for others. Their spirit is overwhelming most when she is both aware and unaware but even better when she is healthy and happy.
ReplyDeleteI believe this poem means that she has a loving spirit without doing it on purpose. When she wakes up she is back to loving the person without even trying to. Her body just sheds out love naturally. This lets me know that when you are so in love with someone, it's not hard for you to express it to them. Your body will automatically do that for you.
ReplyDeleteIn my opinion, this poem is about identity and love. Only with the beloved person, people can show their vulnerability and true essence of their souls. Only with our soul mate, we could be ourselves.
ReplyDeleteThis poem portrays the essence of love, and feelings and passions. Very poetic.
ReplyDeleteI think it is about love and warmth. the feeling a person feels when they are falling in love. the security from that person when they are holding you in thier arms.
