The above is Hasty’s request for her one year anniversary in blogging and I was more than happy to meet the challenge
This third duet was done with a sort of Word Smith http://seanbidd.com/2013/03/26/beyond-the-dry-grass/
I have loved you for over two thousand years
If I could find you in a million faces
Your place
A speak-easy
They’re a million faces of you…
I can smell only traces of you
Residue and relics lost
I’m caught between worlds searching to find silk just as soft
Behold the tares of 18th Century gods
Held in high regard
Amongst our tethered Frey
Searching for the most qualified rhetorician
To convince the gods of something tangible today
Once again
Here
Caught
Caught in our slow dance
Oh I love that way
The way your words
They climb through the seasons
And give them meaning
Till here we are
With the wild sea roses
As they rise up, upon each wave of sand
Can you tell me, the direction we’re headed?
Spirit, lover, soul mate
We are headed towards ripples of sand storms
Slaying beast that come between our worlds that were torn
Through old lovers and street huggers
We are headed towards cowboys and Indians
And will move rummage any kin to them
We are headed towards Transylvania
Where we were first bitten
Socrates, Plato and Aristotle will gather the town hall
They will convince them all of why we should be together
We are headed towards Jack the Ripper, Shakespeare and Vladimir
Mozart, Beethoven and acapellas with compose a song for us
You must purchase for me a Mona Lisa or a Moana
For when the gods brings us together
It seems like centuries till the day
And not even I will tire of this search
This unquenchable thirst
So I search this bruised place leaving not one crevice untraced
I time travel
Skimming the surface
Searching
For
You
Whisper it loud into the storm’s wild wind
Let the gods give Romeo and Juliet their chance to start all over again
To take us flying above with your songs
Where each atmosphere
Sweats thick with your thoughts
If I could find you in a million faces
Your place
A speak-easy
They’re a million faces of you
I have loved you for over two thousand years
And the gods have denied our request
And now
We roam this bruised place
Obsessed
Chasing
Only traces
Of you
And so
We time travel

AND IT WAS AN ADVENTUROUS RIDE…LOL, I HAD FUN INTERACTING WITH YOU SEAN. I REALLY DID, YOU ARE FUNNY,,LOL LIKE I SAID I CAN TIME TRAVEL IN 3.2 SECONDS (;
It was a fun collaboration, and the interaction fast too, no time for sleep. Plus, always love a good adventure. All that time travel, it was a top ride!
LoL..3.2 seconds, in how far (that’s how far in all dimensions)? The universe is a big place out there, it’s a ginormous place in fact. What have you seen? 🙂
The demensions in my mind anyway, but I am not normal (;
I have seen hearts being colored in red or children being told stories before they go to bed.
I have seen pastures filled with butterflies and teachers teaching children how to make tie-dye.
I have seen how excited my grandma was when she brought my first bra.
I have seen leaves changing colors in the fall and couples holding hands while shopping in the mall.
I have seen angels being sent down to lend a hand or birds playing footsies in the sand
Excerpt from the language of love, this is the best I could come up with. https://soundcloud.com/mentalnotes-1/the-lsungusge-og-love-poetry
It’s way to early to tell you what I have really seen, you’d probably stop following me,,,lol
Who’s normal these days, everyone’s their own unique (:
I’ve seen a few of those too… Yeah, way too early for the real, but I’d never stop following the words and poetic lines that you choose to share lol
You are on a roll aren’t you…I love it!!!! Duets are so addicting aren’t they and a great way to connect with people! This one is once again fabulous!!!!
THANK YOU HASTY, YEA, AND I ALREADY LIVE WITH AN ADDICTIVE PERSONALITY. SO I GUESS I AM DOOMED (:

LaToyah…that was LONG. I envy your ability to do that all in one shot, without tripping. Crazy talent! You read it like you had it memorized. Wonderfully done.

Still. It was great. I think Jen’s was the longest I’ve done, and that was tough for me. I had to rearange the punctuation and create punctuation so it would easier to sigt read.
You are awesome. 🙂
