Yea… I never know what will come when I start to write… I'm just following my fingers as they move on my filthy keyboard… and try to create a matching title to the gibberish… sorry 'bout that...


… as if I knew where the point should have been made

I am fascinated by words… the process…
How one single word can mean so much in one regard
and practically nothing, in another…
The versatility of words and the meaning they infuse...
… or removes from a context with ease.

Love comes to mind… as it always does…
Love is a word everyone knows…
But if I were to write "Love!"… it wouldn't mean love anymore…
I could even distort the meaning even further by writing "… love?"
and the whole emotional state of me, as a reader, would change…

Technically the actual word never changed… dots and figures were added and remove, capitalization were changed but the word remained the same…

But a single word does not a story make… no, at least three are required…
This is just my opinion, based on nothing more than my personal thought that three words are required to state something as something… In truth, this is not true…
I just like the magic of the "three word thing"… and that was also just a guess…

It isn't important
nothing really is
I see nothing
nothing and less
like a dream
like a nightmare
as if asleep
dazed and dreary
a slight unease
so I wake
I dig down
I beg please…
let me go
wake me up
I need sleep
hope failed me
I failed hope
little white lies
in dark black
on crisp white
reads as follows
there is nowhere
nowhere to run
you cannot stay
you cannot go
sealed in dreams
got to wakeup…

... and so on… three word poetry is fun… it doesn't have to mean much…
it's pretty much written to be vague and constricted in it's flow.
it might be boring to read… but it's a nice write… not really demanding…
you have to think… but not a lot… and you can always build on the end result… if you want to…

It isn't important, nothing really is...
I see nothing, nothing and less... like in a dream…
… more like a nightmare
as if asleep, dazed and dreary
With a slight unease… quiver… so, I wake...
I dig down and I beg…
please… let me go
Wake me up, I need some sleep

Hope failed me and I failed hope in the process
With little white lies in darkest black on crisp white
It reads as follows

There is nowhere
nowhere to run
and you can't stay
and you can't go
...sealed in dreams

I've got to wakeup…
