ElectricPoetry Post: New transcriptions 1983
"Lesson in Communication"
Poetry by Michael F. Nyiri
© 1-20-83 8pmWhen I relate my massive musings
Scatter tales to test misgivings
Only wish that words which mean
Less than the words I'm using
Used to mean.I only want to say let's get together
Let hearts which beat erratic
beat in tune
Please tell me if our spare sprite thoughts
Are even in this moment
opportune.If I would only laugh
and point the way to coupled bliss
Erase confusion with
One thought provoking kiss
Might come to thisPoems sung at midnight let the
songs be heard anew
Please tell me if my spare sprite
thoughts
Might give me cause to think of you"Esoteric Underpinnings (Grab words with no meanings)"

Hello significance once more
I just found my keys Shine a light on me please
Let me open the door
Hello bright futures my dears
I will pay all the fees Gain responsibilities
And close out all the fearsI can dance I will dance with delight
Never found true love
But no shadows could ever dim it
from my sight
I used to laugh and I would
dance through my decay
But the sun came up
I welcomed another day.Hello rest, hello soft comfort once again
I found my money Coincidence funny
I forever shut out all the pain
Hello my life, my love's own recompense
I relish my poem right in this tome
And my words will be heavensent.A cloud will cover up my moody glooms
But a lightbulb soon will brighten up my rooms
Smile
It's yet another way to pass the while"For You Whoever You Are Again"
Poetry by Michael F. Nyiri

Here's the refrainI see a verdant field in your vast vision
I veldt inhabited by animals with charm
And as I see you are a spirit of the morning
I know that circumstance will
never show you harm.
I glimpse a flowery bower in your meanings
A gazebo filled with fragrance in your hair
And as I trace my life upon your seasons
I'll never find a rock or sharp place thereA verse can spill from poets' lips
But sure beauty is touched by your fingertips
And a kiss is filled with passion
Enthused by your touch
Sparks poets to reasoning
Life can't be much
When compared to the feeling
I'm feeling just now
You can spur me to passion
Cause my deep thoughts to flowI see I touch
I exist - not that much
But you are there in all of my dreams
No rhyme no reason
Sha la la
Here's the refrain"Sublime Shortcomings"
Poetry by Michael F. Nyiri
© 3-30-83 6:30pm
Another exuberant ecstasy
Milked for the moment
Training in timeless reverence
Seasoning on the salad days
Writing instant memories
Sometime todayCall me mixed emotions
Saddle up my happiness
Riding the range of experience
Totally tantamount to
Surging perfectionShe might sit on the cornerstone
of memory
Waiting for the bus
Call me the busy interloper
Take me for a rideInsistence supreme
Hark heave my heavy burden
Wait for the oppportune moment
And experience
Another exuberant ecstasy"What Are Words But a Hindrance to Communication (Essay Three)"

We can't relate
So leave our opinions to fate
And always tend to fail
When we attempt to tell the taleI could tell you better what I mean
If I knew what I wanted to say
Brighten my language to a sheen
Bring down the curtain, end the playI'll say hello
And you can scream with meaning.
BEHIND THE POETRY: In early 1983 I was about to enter my 30th year on Eartyh, and I wrote 35 poems during the year. These new transcriptions, which will eventually find themselves on the 1983 page on my ElectricPoetry Website, are mostly all concerned with my state of lonliness during the early 80s. I was working at a new job in 83, at Gemco stores, and my schedule was erratic due to varied shifts including an overnight stocking shift. I lived in a two bedroom rented apartment, and had a series of four revolving "roommates. 'The first poem was written in late January, and was the second poem penned in 1983. The next two poems were two of three written on March 13th of that year, one right after the other. The last two poems in this entry were written on March 30th, so each of these poems are from the same time frame, during which I was floating in a sea of ennui, trying to rediscover my poetic voice, ("I relish my poem right in this tome", "writing instant memories"), and also trying to find love, as I was wont to do all during my youth, with little result. I felt at this time that I was merely repeating myself when writing, so I experimented with form a lot.
The "ElectricPoetry" banner at the top of the entry was just made this morning, and uses one of my Dana Point photos from last month, repositioned, and overlaid on a blue 'sky' background. MFN/ppf

The power of poetry is awesome.
I really liked "For You Whoever You Are Again".
Hah, I'm trying to find my poetic voice. I might already have it, but I probably don't know it yet.
I like the idea of a "thought provoking kiss." I also like your 'behind the poetry' explanation. Very cool.
You write good poetry Mike, I truly enjoyed reading this. Nice work.
Hey Michael! :wave:
I always love your Electric Poetry posts. This is no exception. Well done, my friend! :goodjob:
Breathe,
Steve :sunny:
Hello, I saw you stopped by & wanted to say hi. Your poetry is very nice!
Hi Michael,
I am impressed by your dedication to replying all your comments, when you receive so many of them on your featured post! I am really glad you still keep the collection of poems with you, because from this very entry itself, it is evident how much your poems can speak of your feelings there and then, each poem somehow fetches you back to that particular point in time when you pen down your 'instant memories'. But somehow or another, i dread how emotional i get when i do think back into the past, my mind subconsciously focus on so much negative comparison between the present and past, i just get myself upset. Even so, i refused to just throw away things that 'lived' in the past, even if all it remains as of today, is a physical object with no much relevance to today, it is a piece of memory i cannot let go. It doesn't make much sense now that i see, when we will only base our recollection of what happened before on objects, and memories hardly get remembered till they are stirred.
A brilliant poet you must be, to inject emotions of yours then through words into another. Keep writing, and i look forward to more beautiful poems from you.
I wish I could write even half as good as you. Incredible job!
Hi Mike..........RYC: no one to jam with at this time. A good friend and and I used to play guitar together, and we were getting rather good at it for a while, but his time is so consumed with family obligations that he could not continue. So I'm just doing it all myself now. When it comes to recording, I like it that way, because "too many cooks spoil the stew" you know? Glad you liked the tune.
I feel your passion here. RY(II)C: You're so good at pushing me and making me feel good at the same time
No, I didn't answer all the questions. It's hard to come up with a unified, cohesive thesis about something as complex as intelligence. I could have shortened the post and stuck to things I could prove, but what fun would that be? Your prompts may get me a Master's in English yet 
Hi Michael
I was at Tricia's site and saw your response..I came by to see your site.
I really like your writing. I especially like "Sublime Shortcomings"
Have a Great day~
Hi Mike,
I liked the first and last poems the best. I checked out your poetry site too. I find it amazing that you've kept all of these. 5*s for you!
Your post is always inspiring,give us some very good reading.
I enjoyed your poetry.....a true perspective on life. You have a lot of stuff here and I will have to stop back when I have more time. I plan on reading your essay on history soon. I teach history in rural Alaska and stuying philosophy (existentialism) in my spare time. I also like your morphing experiment. Good luck on your day with the computer.

Those are awesome poems! I went through a similar phase in college and wrote nearly a whole notebook of poetry, though mine's a lot darker. Some was written for two poetry classes I took, but most was just from what I was going through. I like the fact that yours gets your point across but isn't dark at the same time. Nice job! As for my original, lol, first novel, it's been through Editing month twice, but it's still not done. Last March I got all my changes down on the paper but now they have to be put into the computer. I was going to reedit it again in March 2008, but I like this Trilogy idea a lot, so who knows. We'll see when March gets here! lol, and thanks for the vote of good luck! It's going to be a total blast, and I can't wait! hehehe, if I don't blog so much in November, now you know why! -QL
