My thoughts

On a Basic Level

November 6, 2018November 6, 2018 ~ purloinedpoet ~ Leave a comment

On a basic level, why cannot we as humans look at one another as equals? As the same? We are all humans. Different perhaps in appearance. Unique in personality, way of thinking, emotionally. And yet, fundamentally we are the same. Science backs this up. A human is a human, nothing more, nothing less. It is … Continue reading On a Basic Level

Woe Be Me

October 31, 2018October 31, 2018 ~ purloinedpoet ~ Leave a comment

Woe be me. That’s always a good way to start a rant. Or even just another thought piece. What the absolute and dissolute hell is a thought piece? How incredibly elementary. It’s nothing more than a desperate attempt to make something that is purely emotional, intellectual. But that’s not possible. And so, it is a … Continue reading Woe Be Me

Surprised By “isms”

October 29, 2018October 29, 2018 ~ purloinedpoet ~ Leave a comment

On January the First of 2019, I will be seated in car pointed west, driving into the future to confront and overcome my past. I expect that this journey will provide bushels of content for this blog, and my writing in general. Until that time, I worry slightly about this blog. I believe that much … Continue reading Surprised By “isms”

Ease and Comfort

October 26, 2018 ~ purloinedpoet ~ Leave a comment

It is both interesting and a bit saddening to me that the vast majority of the views I have been receiving has been reserved for my poetry. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the fact that people are perusing and seemingly enjoying the poetry. That being said, my self-titled "thought pieces," which in essence get … Continue reading Ease and Comfort

What Do We Know?

October 23, 2018 ~ purloinedpoet ~ Leave a comment

The greats say, “write about what you know.” Of course, why not just write what you know? Why the clarifying and mystifying “about?” The crux of the matter is, we cannot know anything. Think of even the most basics of commonly accepted facts or notions. Take for instance the idea that we are awake. What … Continue reading What Do We Know?

Waiting for Genius

October 23, 2018 ~ purloinedpoet ~ Leave a comment

Here I go again, sitting here with fingers poised above keys, waiting for genius. The wait may be long. And so I do what I always do...I simply begin writing. How often is it that writing does not occur because we are waiting for that perfect idea or concept to strike us? Screw that. A … Continue reading Waiting for Genius

One of Those Moments

October 22, 2018October 22, 2018 ~ purloinedpoet ~ Leave a comment

This is one of those moments that do not come often, but strike with heart-wrenching force when they do come. I speak of the strong desire to have a healthy and wholesome relationship with a woman. It hits me sometimes. Maybe when I am lying in bed alone. When I just want someone who truly … Continue reading One of Those Moments
