 Farewell,Pioneer
 



First Pioneer-its sad to see the blog close.But I really want to thank you

in so many ways.I have six years of poetry work at blogstream-and there were

really great editing tools-I just want to thank you for your dedication- you mean a

whole lot to many of us;-all I have always been so aware what it is that you have

made it all possible. So the change is quite big! I use a different password but if

if is not a hassle are you able to see that I was wrod@slingshot password mango999?

I may be wrong with that. Wordpress seem to need evidence of being with Blogstream.

Now(basically to slow the spam and email down) I write under this name and to contact

you will find me here: serviangray70@gmail.com.

If its possible to confirm the blogstream password it will be very helpful.

So buddy,some new trails for you eh? You have made changes in my life completely

possible-and the vibe at blogstream was very kind and caring.

Trust that we can sort the migration-its already April the 12th.So this

resettlement has to happen now.

Hope to hear from you,Pioneer--I am in New Zealand pioneering writing

and poetry-(some six years work on the blog.)

Seem to hear Wordpress are very good-so one question>

you have a "download" tool-will this function post by post?

I do really ask timeconsuming things.Such as seeing I have to cut and paste

everything over. So perhaps you may help me along on that one.

Ride the beauty path,Pioneer--you touch lives with your work.

Please accept my Gratitude.

Sincere regards

Go Well

and Peace be with you.

 How absolutely brilliant!
 




Oh look! There is Lalaine
Riding on the train

she is off to Cebu
then a plane to Spain

Oh look! there is Ashley Brilliant
playing with the kids
she is ready for her dinner
so she opens all the lids!

MarkIan is my Daddy
Lala is my mum
both are with me when
I am asleep-mama is so tired

I love Mama and Daddy
specially if I have cried

Then the morning comes
This is what I see

Our house and outside
all the trees:
this is where we all live.

Ashley Brilliant-that’s me!

 Once more at the beggar's Gate
 

And so they sang along
Singing that mournful song
oh willow;yet Willow is
wondering where the money went

sent to dust with
the duke of Kent
alas, oh lack a day
they could pay no rent

their dented world
their dart of love
singing somewhere
above

yet gravity frowns
upon their love

for love is everywhere
even as the writer rights
this night of longing
love sleeps-the sickle

moon above even so this Love.
the lute is silent,the song is gone
yet even in this world love goes on.

 flying with WordPress!
 


This i pad thing is just a toy.And toys are fun.Like the
Newton.Wow.I could have have written by hand.Useful Tool.and the
Palm.Gone.

. Zing..so now we have both ears covered,a mike

and speaker set up for a seminar..and you still have this hunk of
meat to take to the grocery

store and you get on the bus and keep tactile..one hand on the
ipad,other hand on the bus

ticket and you have those drop-down vidcam eyeglasses and to all
intent you are nearly

100% percent cyberical in public.Until its like wearing clothes,talk
speaker-ear and this is

the kind of wierd withdrawal from cellular interaction with other
bodies Gibson et al warned us of.

But wait. Perhaps its evolution. the rapidity of deep search
information is insanely fast,

as to be dromological.and if you have Word Pad and Firefox
4-heck--you want to show off

like "so much for the android" huh. And as for Philip K Dicks
question "Do Androids dream

of electric sheep?"--we have our chance to investigate. Somewhere
somewhere some

person knows..oohh so kewl the ipad and Wd Elements in the lizard
skin hard drive holster

Not Billy the kid--but a person sure feels armed,and so good until
"Hey!" and so you stroll

along "Listen buster!"..vague strains of species humanus from the F2F
space."You just

knocked my kid over on the road! What are you on?" Ohh..Im sorry.."You
are sorry!

"I called the police and lodged a charge of assault on a minor"
"what?"you say,tracking from

the jagged cut into sunshine,pavement,police and"This guy! He is
insane! He knocks small

children around like they were not even there!" Police-and-"I am
suing this loser!" "Calm

down"says the officer" "Is it true this child was knocked into the
road thereby causing a

traffic hazard and posible violence upon a minor?"" Ahhh."Are you on
medication?"

"Well ahh"You are on medication.And what is all this fancy gear you
got?" "Oh Well thats an

Ipad this is a double visored vision relay unit and these are the transmitters?"

"Buddy,I think we got a fruit loop here"

Yeah-wanna book him?"

Have to. You want to make an official complaint?"

"Sure do"

"Then you get to the station""

"All of you -in the car"

And you."

Me?

"Is that surveillance gear?"

"Oh no! its the next leap forward for mankind!"

"Are you on WordPress?"

"Absolutely!"

"I still have to bust ya"

Thats okay..

So now you are sitting in the car and this guy is glaring at you
and this child is saying"hey Mister You got King of the Vikings"
it's way cool"

Hey buddy" says one of the policemen/"Anything you say/
"right to remainsilentalthoanythingyou say may be,Evidence!!

"How much for the ipad?"

" oh,its a around a grand"

"lunch money"

what???

How many addons you have with Wordpress"

"All of what I can get"

"I see"
"Okay-the whole lot now twenty bucks".

Whaaaa?

"Twenty bucks or its the slammer and no parole.

I will lie like a rug.Do this deal-you can walk free"
Give"

And so you did. Gave it all away-No more country pie
no more cyberic ruined cities It was Word press.
So darn powerful! It rules the world!.

 'State of the Nation"-for David Mitchell poet. teacher.
 

Dave is in Sydney now.Martin Edmond and Nigel Roberts worked
with Auckland University Press to release the 'Complete Collection'

Thanks,Martin and Nigel.

Thank you David.

This one is for you.Be Well.

State of the Nation

the poets on tour
checking the pulse
"the poets are in town!"

I was beside you then
listening guitar playing the wood
you brought the world around

I am with you now
time to
weave for thee,
shirt of sandalwood.

russet red- gold
and apple green.

'deliver me o sacred tree
from my hard silence'

David you shall have two trees
800 years of aging cypress
and cornfields
oh

deliver thee
olive tree
from this

hard silence

silver skin
lizard boots

cornfields dotted
scarlet traces of poppies red

a breeze awakens you
stretches into us upon your
recovered word.

Tane Mahuta.The oldest sacred Kauri

Enter the Cathedral of the forest king
steal away Tane heals the apple green

footprints traces
where we have been.

When you were reading as we did
upon the road town to town
so much going down

I was with you then,
bent over the blue guitar

'things as they are are
changed upon the blue guitar'

songs of cypress trees fell in Quebec
crafted into the neck of guitars

the word aged and turned inside the wood
echoes of your voice in the wood.

so the silence
so the dove-

offerings for you
David-

in the name of
Love.
