a feather in time



warning: seems like this topic has not
been posted in for at least 400 days.

and we have to ask ourselves why

unless you're SURE you want to reply,
please consider starting a new topic

because brokeback has been gone
for so long, and heath as well
:(  :'(

and jake isn't jack anymore
(at least in some eyes)

I guess that's why Jake's threads are so quiet nowadays...

To me, Jake will always be Jack, just like he is all of the other characters he has ever played - or will play. It's such a comfort to know how special Brokeback was (and still is) for Jake - he has said so many, many times.

Bittersweet memories... A feather in time, indeed  :'(

Brokeback is still very much alive in my heart, too.
Chaos is order yet undeciphered.

ennis: you won't ever forget me, will you?

jack: no way. i couldn't. even if i tried.

ennis: look in my eyes and say that.

because the mountain's been gone so long
we forget the feather in jack's black hat

but there are folks here who know
their magic tides come and grow
let's tilt our heads to the south
to say it with an open mouth
we will not ever dare forget
the film that made us cry




Lovely, Jimmy!

familiar territory






these roads and highways
traveled so frequently
etched in my mind

jack and ennis
mountain bound
kiss the moon's sky

a bitch of a situation
teeth bring blood
too much now

a stone put up
his ashes interred
where bluebirds cry

no cake right now
silence as song
jack i swear
i'll say so
long







Love this! Both map and poem!

YOU


you
a snowflake
me
a dull tent stake
driven hard
i bent
in directions my legs never went
i warned
i feared
i told you so
and now you're gone
to where i cannot go
only now can i see
that you
held the better part of me
the only thing real
a memory
i will
keep you safe
keep you now
for somehow
i must go on
before my children
too
pass as shadows
i have not known
for love i faltered
i made mistakes
i gave up what was before me
for the sake of
our place
our secret
my bloodied shirt and yours
a postcard
a closet
a house
a cave
in fields of wheat
homeless
alone
i travel
trails of dust
for freedom
from my hell
if only
i could tell
you
the snowflake
fell
upon my lips
admit to
the lie
i was wrong
you were right
more often
than i
upon the mountain
cold
has now become
what i can only call
my home
my sport of
fishing
i dipped into you
and you keep me
for all time

it's ennis on the left, and jack on the right.












howdy... i'm reposting this to fix the coding errors
that appeared outta nowhere for whatever reason! :D
also, my husband wrote this one, not me.  8)

Where is My Muse?

---------------------------------

It's been five years
since I've been here last
I can't believe
all that time has passed

the talkative one
with nothing to say
I wonder why
my muse went away

no strokes to the keyboard
talent output suspension
perhaps someone else
required her attention

so she had to leave
and inspire another
perhaps my needs
left her feeling smothered

reread some old poems
viewed with a new light
stirred something within
and I started to write

My muse has returned
she's no longer away
and I truly hope
that she's here to stay
