My first post! yay! ;D
Just wanna say hi and i'm glad to be here, i've checked out the whole place and i like the personality and vibe, and i think i'm just 1 drop in the flood of newbies yet to come.
I'd like to give a shout out to the kind head that turned me on to this site, and the good folks back home that i know are lurking around these parts, Yo!
I'm pretty fascinated with consciousness and it's multi-facetness, and the connexion between the mind and brain, and more generally, the connexion between the phenominal and nouminal. i'm so glad to be able to learn about this stuff and i hope to be able to share some useful insights.
Hey when i saw the poetry forum i got all excited to post some stuff, but when i saw how talented the poets are around here i suddenly felt pretty shy about it. Good stuff, poets!
That's basically it, just wanted to lift up my voice in thanx and praise to everybody here, and say i hope to see you all walking around in the invisible landscape.

Please don't ever feel like you shouldn't post poems! You are more than welcome to post poems here...and I am sure you write just fine!!

Nice to meet you, please tell us where you are from, and a bit about you!

Love, Dara

Welcome! Welcome! ;D We love new people here it is so great to see how this site is growing! Hope you enjoy it here! Never be shy! as Shawn our admistrator no need to be shy speak your mind! your vioce is wating and begging to be heard!  Hey I think everyone has the great ability to write in their own way for qriting to me is just feeling and we all share the ability to feel in common in fact alot of us here share alot of the same feelings and experiences that is what makes us to close knit around here! We are as I would say one big and getting bigger family ;D Yaaaayyyyyyy I am eager to get to know more about all the newbies here for I was once in your shoes! Check out The abuse forum or the disabilty forum or thee 9/11 forums Gosh There are so many boards coming up these days! Great job all!

well thanx for tha nice welcome !
Hmm, been tryin to think what to share about lil ole me.
i think of myself as a hippie, but at 35 i'm too young to be an old head and i'm too old to trust myself anymore.
i aint had no real edumacation other than the school of hard knocks, which reminds me, this morning i slipped on the icy steps of the deck in the backyard and now i have a big sore bruse on my butt, ow!
Besides english i speak ebonics with fair fluency and some french and german, and i'd like to re-learn the esperanto my sister and i used when we were younger, but we've both pretty much forgotten all of it.
i'm a big fan of cannabinoids, but i had not had any for a long time till today. Woah, man. i'm hella baked right now. We should all take a moment to give thanx and praises to Jah, or Krishna,since He claims He's the same guy. These are just metaphors.
If i ought not to be shy, here's a haiku:

waiting for summer
ouch damn hell f*kin-A!
slip'd on winter ice

Hey don't worry bout it we all slip on the ice now and again some of us more than others(like me for instance! lol) I hope you heal soon...... ok people are going to start kicking my my a** for going around saying i am stupid but forgive me I have no clue well I am thinking bout I am not sure if i am right plz don't honer my mind as it is fried at the moment anyway what an canaboids or what the word was anyway it's all good honer the gods we all come from the same place anyway
Rock on....................................................Love =peace

well i won't kick your a** but i can tell you're not st00pid!
Cannabinoids are the excellent chemicals produced by the cannabis plant  -yeah, man! i mean pot, weed, ganja, kind buds,... i thought it would be good medicine for my owie. uh-huh, i got stoned pure-ly for medicinal purposes
hey i wanted to mention i like all your poems, i could go to each one and post a comment but since i'm kinda lazy i'll just give you an overall statement here: they each have a good shape, and a strong feeling, if you kno what i mean. i like 'em.

Thank you I can just laugh now as I was having a bad first few days to my week! No you are write I am no dummy I thought you were talking about weed but I didn't want to say oh yeah weed bud you know the "happy stuff" : then I would have really "felt stupid"!! I learned my lesson saying i was stupid! hehe thanks for your support on my poetry I have so many lazy days myself it's ridiculous but I whine and complain about everything anyway so what are friends for right? well I hope we can be friends. Thanks again for your support and reconizing me for me being me! That's all I am and that's all and only who I want to be I learned not to try and be someone I am not to much work and engery wasted for dumbass reasons like get real!  Medinicipal purposes huh? hehe so did it work!? if so send some my way I could use some of the happy stuff.
