a window with a broken seal
me caught between the glass
looking in, then peering out
sweat rolling down the pane
polishing up the outside
the fog will still remain
running hot, cold, humid

Beautiful !

Sometimes you have to wait for things to crack. 😉
March 12th, 2010 at 4:27 am
nice, but not where i would want to be trapped…
March 13th, 2010 at 10:55 pm
I know, tight fit. lol
March 12th, 2010 at 5:35 am
Oppression of our own doing? How did we get there? How do we get out?
The moist heat envelopes comforting and uncomfortable. I can really relate to this today. I’m in a tight spot myself.
March 13th, 2010 at 10:55 pm
I always seem to have a hand in…even if I don’t realize it at first.
March 12th, 2010 at 7:04 am
to be in this paradoxical position…but once free, it feels amazing!

I see where you are,
wild place,
I hope that you did not get hurt!
Happy Friday!
March 13th, 2010 at 10:56 pm
lol
March 12th, 2010 at 8:05 am
Please feel free to take one of those,
no obligation!
Happy Friday!
March 17th, 2010 at 8:30 am
Thank you J! You are always so kind and gratious. 🙂
March 12th, 2010 at 11:37 am
Another awesome, evocative piece, Jaymie.
March 17th, 2010 at 8:31 am
Darn job hunting limbo has me squeezed between the panes! 😉
March 12th, 2010 at 1:03 pm
Wow. Stuck between 2 worlds. What a scary place to be. This has a lot of punch, Jaymie. Good job!
March 17th, 2010 at 8:31 am
It is scary. I hope I get out soon! 🙂
March 12th, 2010 at 3:49 pm
Love it, Jaymie…
I actually HATE it when there’s stuff between the window panes, and you just… can’t… quite.. get to it!
I guess, sometimes, we just have to take it all apart… spend some times… un-trap that fly… or ourselves. Let things out.. or in… Not just scratch the surface… with a quick-wipe. 😉
March 17th, 2010 at 8:32 am
You’re right…a quick-wipe won’t fix this one. 😉
March 12th, 2010 at 10:12 pm
You have such great talent, a real gift.
Bill
March 17th, 2010 at 8:32 am
Thank you Bill. You are often my inspiration.
March 13th, 2010 at 8:37 am

I did post the picture, it was amazing. I hope this is alright. If not, let me know. 🙂
March 13th, 2010 at 10:59 am
Good to see you writing again. 🙂 I missed you! Be sure to fight off all those things in life that do not need to be in your world! 🙂
March 17th, 2010 at 8:38 am
I need to get back to daily writing. It is good for me. I am working on a remedy. 🙂 Priorities, you are so right Luisa!
March 14th, 2010 at 4:42 am
Jaymie, previous request refers apologies. Please disregard comment. I understand now. Have just seen your other page.
Warmest wishes, always,
John
March 17th, 2010 at 8:38 am
I still love to post and link back. I just get overwhelmed with all the extra instructions, lol.
March 14th, 2010 at 9:41 am
interesting and very stark imagery.

Thank you for visiting.
March 14th, 2010 at 11:57 am
how are you?
mad,
sad,
or busy like a marrying lad?
March 17th, 2010 at 8:42 am
Just busy J…too busy to be mad or sad. 🙂
March 14th, 2010 at 7:35 pm
I am so excited to see you back on commenting!
a feeling of warmth and trust at birth instantly..
Happy Sunday!
Good Luck on your life and blogging!
😉
March 17th, 2010 at 8:43 am
I have spent hours catching up today. It feels good to see everyone’s work. 🙂
March 15th, 2010 at 12:10 am
That is ‘way cool! We have a few windows with broken seals in our house. I will think of your poem when I see them!
And… a bit of news what’s up in my sphere…
I’m excited about this week, and all the upcoming give-ways on my blog — including 7 poetry books by Billy Collins and 7 of my cds, (of songs I wrote.) I am giving things to spread some happiness around. Come on over!!
xo
March 17th, 2010 at 8:51 am
I’m not really sure how the give-ways work but I sure had fun leaving some of my history in your comments. 🙂
March 15th, 2010 at 4:14 am
Wow!! very nice.
March 17th, 2010 at 8:52 am
Makes me want to get new windows. 😉
March 15th, 2010 at 4:14 am
Lovely…..beautifully written Jaymie.
March 17th, 2010 at 8:52 am
Thank you Collin…was trying to write out some feelings.
March 15th, 2010 at 4:31 am
Awesome….very beautiful. 🙂
March 17th, 2010 at 9:03 am
Thank you Sandra.
March 15th, 2010 at 9:04 am
Impressive that you can say so much in only a few short lines. I am still trying to find such a talent for myself.
March 17th, 2010 at 9:11 am
Funny too because I can be long-winded in person. lol
March 15th, 2010 at 9:42 pm
I enjoy reading your words, letting the imagery sink in, waiting for the murky water to settle revealing something gold and glinting in the muck and mud. And I am never disappointed Jaymie. Your poetry is so multi-dimensional.
March 17th, 2010 at 9:13 am
Wow, thank you. I write to deal with my own murky waters. Sometimes it works.
March 16th, 2010 at 3:30 am
What a beautiful poem,my friend!!!
I like how you think a lot!!!
I wait next poem 😉
Enjoy the moment!!!! 🙂
March 17th, 2010 at 9:14 am
Some say I think too much. 😆
March 16th, 2010 at 6:07 am

March 17th, 2010 at 9:16 am
You are an amazing poet yourself S. Is there a way to grab your blog feed? I tried once before but it didn’t work.
March 17th, 2010 at 5:34 am
hey, i feel the stuckness in this one. almost too well! what a gifted poet and artist of soul you are, jaymie.
March 17th, 2010 at 9:17 am
I don’t know if I will ever learn to be comfortable with limbo. Perhaps we are not meant to be?
March 17th, 2010 at 6:53 am
I’ve been there!
March 17th, 2010 at 9:17 am
Still trying to shake it loose here.
March 17th, 2010 at 7:21 am
I’ve seen small bugs trapped like this, and I feel helpless because there’s no way for me to save them. Metaphor? Probably. Or maybe I’m just one of those crazy animal people who never squashes an insect.
March 17th, 2010 at 9:18 am
I’m a fan of trying not to squash. Just seems like a better way.
March 17th, 2010 at 8:09 am
Happy Wednesday!
I appreciate your kind comments,
you rock!
😉
March 17th, 2010 at 9:20 am

We’ve been crossing paths for months. I hope it is okay that I added you to my blogroll. I’m trying to improve on my blog housekeeping. 😉

March 18th, 2010 at 5:57 am
Wow..this is awesome! I think we’ve all felt like that at one time or another. You “captured” it perfectly!
March 18th, 2010 at 6:31 am
