I don't like the nasally, cry in your beer stuff of old. Quoting: cosmicgypsy I mean, I can't get on the bus, or go into a store without there being Country music playing...and much to my BIG surprise, I'm liking it. It's making me smile, even chuckle, and tap my foot, but I have NO CLUE about who's singing or the names of the songs. So, harhar, youse guyses that know country could you post some contemporary foot tappin', even foot stompin' and rebel yellin', tunes so I can learn? Here is one song I do know to like, and like it very much I do-- [link to www.youtube.com (secure)] Also, who of you know what the "b'donkey donk" (sp?) song is? I used to work as a bartender in a bar called the North Star in Sheldon, WI and my regs would play this song for me. This is back in '07, but it was a popular song...anyone know what I'm talking about?...post it, would you, if you know what I'm referring to? Thanks, y'all...  Lol....that's my favorite country song ever!! |

The words rose from deep within me, my heart speaking louder than any words my mind would have before ever allowed to fall from my lips. In the following moment before you entered me I thought about how it was the most romantic proposition I had ever uttered in the whole entirety of my life. As you entered me I realized how deeply I loved you. I felt vulnerable and unafraid all at the same time. I felt free. In that hour you did, you came into me bringing all that you were to rest in my body and spirit. We shared the moments of physical bonding in all its passion and, indeed, when you left my side your spirit remained. Little did I know that the spiritual bonding would become a binding entanglement. In the following weeks we lived together, laughed and loved, and planned a bright future. I nicknamed you "Farm Boy" and you nicknamed me "Short Stop." I had never known such happiness. We were inseparable. To lie in each others arms just only to feel the warmth of our aliveness was the greatest pleasure we knew, bar none. But that brightness dimmed as we began to grow apart in the following months. Despite my asking, tempting, and begging you not to bottle yourself up so often, you still did. Your love of Mr. Walker drove a wedge between us, and cautioned me to consider a timely departure. You were so selfish when you drank. And dangerous. Eventually, I did leave you, although you never left me. All that you were had been invited in within that one moment when my mind betrayed me and my heart overcame me. It’s now been months since we’ve spoken. All should be lost and gone, and I could live with that, except I invited you to build a home inside of my everything. Now, that home is my prison. Now, it is merely a loveless hovel of grief and sorrow. These recent weeks my heart has wandered about like an abandoned child in the orphanage I have become. I've wondered if you somehow know what I’d let you do to me, if the bond travels the distance, and you too can feel the despair. And even if you don't, my mind would never allow me to tell. My mind is keen with knowing when enough is enough, even when my heart wants for more. You know, they say time heals all wounds, but it’s not the wounds that concern me, it’s the bondage of your spirit I feel fracturing me and breaking me down from the inside out that is complicate. Your walls are overshadowing me near blind. The other night I lay down to be quiet within myself, to think through what to do about you being all over me, inside. I entered that meditative state of being between awareness and sleep, and stepped out of my body and into an altered reality created by the dark quarters of your Scotch soaked spirit. I found myself standing in a dark and gray cemetery under an eclipsing moon. The wispy dream scape was barren of life, save for the fog of my warm breath. There were no trees and no grass. There were no flowers of color resting at your grave site as I stood before your headstone. My discontent had etched an epitaph there that read, ‘Fucking hell. He loved Johnnie more than he loved me.’ I stood there a ghost of myself all the while feeling tears stinging my eyes as my heart ached in my motionless, vacant body. My experience was as real as it was candid. I dropped to my knees and felt the hardened earth meet them with pain. I fell onto my hands feeling the cold dirt not give way to my ghostly featherweight. I raised my head to the epitaph and felt my eyes curse you for your weakness...and for mine. On my bed I was weeping while my heart was at its end-stage of shattering. I slowly lowered myself to cover your grave with my body. It was so very, very cold as we lay apart. I prayed for healing while you preyed within me; the cemetery and dirt that held you, held me. I prayed that my tears would hydrate your dried bones and that my warm blood would rush your heart to beat again. I prayed that you would rise from the dirt and ascend into my arms. I prayed that my spirit would enliven yours so that the epitaph could be overwritten with one single word, ‘Resurrected’. I prayed that you would stand before me, a sober man, look me in the eyes and say, “I love you more than anything else on the entire planet, Short Stop.” I wept in my bed while it didn’t happen. You remained stone cold in the dark recesses of my being, the walls of your barren, deathly home caving in on me. Just before the suffocation took the last of my breath my eyes opened as I gripped my body, leaving the dead zone asunder. I wiped my tear soaked face to dry and pulled myself out of bed. I bundled myself up in my coat, hat, gloves and scarf, and stepped outside to view the lunar eclipse in the frigid night. I stood there and watched as the earth passed between the last of the sunlight to illuminate the moon. I watched as it blinked out into the edge of darkness, my heart’s strings being pulled in so many directions like a wild, acyclic tide. While viewing the bereft of light, darkened moon I reflected on how I never foresaw any of this coming. I reflected on how little did I know that in that innocent moment of love and trust when my heart whispered in your ear to build yourself a home inside of me that I would be living there alone, without you. Then, like a foreign radio in my head, I heard the words to a song playing in the far off distance of the barren cemetery, “I want to know what love is, I want you to show me.” Even now, a week later, the song still haunts me. If only I could know whether it is your or my spirit that is singing.....maybe then. --2/08 You never change things by fighting the existing reality.
