may
never
be wasted
but
touch
is
without
meaning
we
look
to
see and the waterfall
of
tears
is
impersonal
Eileen says:
just read ur reply to ballastexistenz about glances having meaning and touch not so
not sure i understand if i think it means what it reads wondering y u think that
i think touch conveys a lot
to me it does
u dont think so?
not sure we mean the same thing by touch do u mean physical ?
Andrew says:
poems have layers of meanings
Eileen says:
yes i know
that's y i'm asking
Andrew says:
bit hard to break them open and say well it means this
Eileen says:
well u must mean something by it
well you write poems so you know how inaccessible they are to being explained
Eileen says:
i sorta understand i think partly
mine aren't
i can explain them
Andrew says:
in the scheme of things touch is like a facsimile
Eileen says:
not the same as ur poems i guess
how
Andrew says:
because what people take as real is sorta fake
Eileen says:
i convey a lot with touch
so my wanting to touch u with tenderness is fake?
it isn't to me
Andrew says:
tenderness itself is a bit fake
compared to infinity as itself
Eileen says:
ok
Andrew says:
whereas a glance is more infinity as itself
