define your life fearless in your every day walking the path i should have walked if i had courage in my veins but i was a percentage man careful always not to fail i talked of art but lived by common sense and progressed cautiously toward an unmarked death at first you welcomed me and drowned me with your kisses opening yourself to me in pagan celebration sure that i like you was of the chosen few who recognised the secret of life will only be discovered creatively how we loved to swap observations and nestle with each other by the fire and talk of love i touched your skin and felt each brush of it to be a prayer your lips for that short time were mine to kiss and face to hold wonder was our chemistry and gold the colour which framed our life for we had found eternity i lost my nerve at last and talked of safe professions a refuge from the fear that those who live to dream will pay a cost until one day that love i drank of so freely from your eyes shrank to a trickle of regret you painted like a girl possessed while i trained for my bar exams and we drifted on complicitly avoiding the unspoken truth that you were fearless and i was not an agent came to see your work sent there by a man of note and the rest we know is history you have created these forty years and i have not but i read of you in magazines and sometimes when silence fills my life i take the portrait you made of me a young man with a dream to chase staring out courageously for that was how you saw me then life becomes your memories and in that place i love you still i never speak your name out loud and make no reference to your work but in that garden where we sat innocent of encroaching truth i sit as so i often did and feel your hand move through my hair share this share on x opens in new window x

values 10 comments notes from the wilderness posted on september 18 2023 by peter wells aka countingducks i have been loved but not totally married but not happily qualified for professions i barely understood but in other ways i ve drunk at life like a madman walking the streets connecting with strangers openly and reacting to the music of the time often filled with a joy in the moment which can be difficult to comprehend given my circumstances i struggle by every measurable standard but somehow being part of this world elevates me daily what did you do in your life some man asked and i replied i enjoyed the view but without any sense of strategy hitchhiking across europe aged eighteen sleeping under hedges and living on carrots and milk playing chess with some oddly competitive man in a cafe on the croatian coast and later walking into the sea to wash my clothes launderettes being beyond my budget were the memories i treasured i ve always been among the dispossessed oddly distracted from the day s urgencies by passing events isn t life wonderful especially when we wander in a landscape untarnished by man and admire those species which dwell in it somehow in this drifting chaos i connected with another being over a number of years whose steady kindness understanding and beauty centred me like nothing has before caroline a fellow volunteer at the shop where i worked became close to me over shifts and months until on the morning of the day she left she said even though we d never spent time alone if i wasn t married i would love you till i died and i d replied it would be returned it was all i had to offer and the truth when she touched my arm i melted into her soul but of course she left me forever after that shift because she was a civilised lady and life with chaos in an unironed shirt had never been her dream whatever the different circumstances we connected in that profound way outsiders can sometimes do but life is not always about understanding the truth is her empowered albeit unimaginative husband a thoroughly decent man offered her security in a way i never could i might be her dream but i was never a reality we never kissed because some boundaries cannot be crossed but she was as near eden as i will ever reach she left my side but she will always be my home share this share on x opens in new window x share on reddit

comments silence was her enemy posted on september 4 2023 by peter wells aka countingducks solitude was her enemy filled with fear of consequence however much she teased at life shredding the dreams of fragile men fatigue would come and take her to the empty void wherein she had lived as a child without love and free of toys you can laugh at life it seems and those dull folk who turn it s wheels but some hours after dusk when partied out and lying alone you may feel the advancing years seeping through your tired dreams she had found no answer on her voyage as many people fail to do but somehow on her anxious walk she introduced herself to me and sitting under some ancient oak with nothing to see apart from life for reasons she did not disclose she threaded her arm through mine and said i could love you if you choose i am as lost as man can be i can not say it otherwise but in her gaze so drenched with doubt i somehow rediscovered hope finding a purpose in my life that she

final word posted on april 3 2023 by peter wells aka countingducks you hear it on the radio some transmission made decades before a fragment of a conversation picked up as your ship travels it s now uncharted path i ll see you soon put the kettle on then laughter and a silence which is eternal what was this life and who were they you ask yourself now on some mission and in a distant galaxy sent out to explore the universe decades ago before the earth was hit by meteorites life on other planets i hope so was all you could think of at the time as you turned to look at greg the captain on this now unrecorded voyage shall i make a note of it you ask but he just shakes his head the answer is in his lack of interest what s the point there s no one left who we can talk to and nothing but these fragments of conversation bouncing round in space and prodding at our spent emotions brief relics of a vanished world heard on this voyaging craft which travels now without reference points or purpose can t beat the view you say trying to keep it light but routine sapped magic from the flight some years before and silence has become the known companion now galaxies pass by unremarked by two souls lost in travelling robbed of home and context by that catastrophe which destroyed their home in mid evolution what does it mean you ask yourself but mute indifference has no answer at some unspecified hour you accept if you don t die before the event some black hole or other matter will swallow this last evidence of man and his ambitions and suns will rise and planets form without comment or exclamation from a lost life form now become particle in space share this share on x opens in new window x share on reddit opens in new window reddit share on tumblr opens in new window tumblr share

countingducks here i was or there or even here and there well ok on a towpath walking back quite early in the morning after sampling the local brand of fresh air lightly seasoned with diesel fumes and a sprinkling of cement dust from some roadworks when i spot a lone lady walking towards me at a current range of approximately two hundred yards i do not like this happening in the country life is simple as you pass her by you would say vegetables failing again doris or hi there how s your mum and with complete strangers a simple bit chilly eh and onwards you would go with in my case my mind firmly fixed on a plate of scrambled eggs and some decent conversation with my much loved goldfish jacinta in london things are more complex a claxon sounds on the bridge and all senses and instincts go to action stations keep it light keeeeep it light no panicking among the nerve endings paleeeese says our noble leader who speaks from somewhere in the centre of the brain now the range is only 150 yards and you can see she is wearing a nice blue dress tucked in at the waist with a matching belt some reckless molecules from the waist region suggests you say lovely dress if i many say so and worth discussing over breakfast while remaining out of slapping distance in case your invitation is declined ninety yards and time for sensible suggestions only if we may heart rate rising slightly and a sense of unease evident in thickening neck symptoms eye contact and a brisk but courteous nod suggests someone from the earlobes while other canny folk say notice something interesting on the other side of the river and walk past without comment almost too late for strategy meeting now as we approach the twenty five yard mark no more suggestions seem forthcoming and a glassy grin rich in unease and discomfort floods across your face and you open and close your mouth weakly in the manner learned from jacinta who has no wardrobe to speak of the shameless hussy the lady looks at you and is clearly alarmed by evidence of palpitations and mouth flapping together with some head nodding to show that strangers we may be but we are all companions in the world village apart from some rough necks on the ukraine border a number of folk in the middle east and other places where head nodding may result in execution still for better or worse apart from her moving as near to the fence as possible to maximise distance the moment is over and a pleasing absence of humans is evident between you and the gate you are seeking now all that matters are the eggs and the prayer that you hope to never meet her again botched first meetings are always made worse by the clumsy efforts to explain them on re meeting for example you meet her three days later and she is getting as near the fence as possible and quickening the pace you serve towards her and raise your arm to demonstrate there is nothing to worry about i say you gush i m sorry if i embarrassed you the other day i was sliding sideways she just manages to get past you and scuttles on at speed you have managed to create an incident from poor planning and your clumsy efforts to put her at ease there is no manual for what to do on the third meeting share this share on x opens in new window x share on reddit opens in new window reddit share on tumblr opens in new window tumblr share on pinterest opens in new window

for threadbare jo and how often is that true his morale was protected by his poor understanding of his situation but even he knew he lived in an affection free zone thus it was that our jo walked into the shop of love to see if emotionally at least he could re equip his circumstances and experience a moment of living in the promised land this was no sleazy joint where women leaving the gentle slopes of youth might squeeze one last ingénue pose out for the camera or men with more desire than aura were old enough to cause unsettled comments when they entered a nightclub no this was a shop offering the ultimate in emotional experience if only for a while or possibly just a moment captured in a corked bottle which could be opened and enjoyed within the privacy of your own home or space every hue and shade of feeling from joy through to despair a surprisingly good seller was on offer samual sackly who liked to weep while others smiled and could be found walking inconsolably through the gardens of historic homes crying as he held a tender flower in his hand saying you will die all of them will die which was true but not for several months given that it was early spring used to purchase a deliciously soul bleaching bottle of melacholia to heighten the experience before he set off on his adventure joseph leek just wanted love the nice old fashioned sort which we enjoyed before sensibility barged into the frame and made strong men weep just by looking at a cloud tipped view while music soaked them with a sense of loss i m after love said threadbare and the attendant nodded sympathetically he saw every kind of ill fitting decision or no decision at all walk through the door here as i said they did not offer the physical experience of being loved but just the essence of it in every shade and strength of expression so you could return home make an egg sandwich and quite literally take the cork out of the bottle now at last as the yolk spilled down his cheek in the splendid isolation afforded by the lack of a phone in his rented room his emotion of choice flooded the space arou...
