Frustration 10 comments

19 Dec 2005 @ 16:05, by jstarrs Welcome to The NCN Poet Tree Anthology...we hope you'll enjoy this evolving, involving and revolving selection of prose from NCN poets, worldwide - submissions are welcomed. frustration sits in the stomach till it blasts out in a scream CDs fly shoes untie in the middle of a rampage telephones answer in electronic drones nobody homes when somebody's needed time runs out when a little more would suffice a pile of obstacles lie in one's path frustration takes on weight of wrath calm cool sounds like a fool when life is so obviously urgent too many balls juggled too many falls too much too loud too impotent frustration cloys air passages clog impossible choices again come the voices you should, you could've you need, you didn't you, you, the voices nag the voices, the chorus of voices frustration like a claustrophobic cubby hole joy withers, the walls close in frustration [link] http://www.newciv.org/pic/mem/pers/lr/judih.jpg judih [link] (dedicated to my son, A) Note from Jeff: Judih was talking about jamming on the poems. I had to ask her what that was and she said "jeff - jamming is writing a spontaneous poem as response to another one. i write for example my thing on frustration and you type out your poetic response. that's open jam. Neurons heaving and actively responding." so, taking it from the last line... The walls close in frustration? then you gone end up like those arms in repulsion like pushing through the plaster cos there ain't no space only some desire on the other side of you face like outta reach and sucked inside out to the detriment of the loved ones watching you frust & thrust & kick about... and anyway what kinda life is that?
