YOU TUBE CHANNEL INTRODUCTION, Featuring LOVE HURTS, Love Email, 3

YOU TUBE CHANNEL INTRODUCTION, Featuring LOVE HURTS, Love Email, 3 

Hello. I am Stanley Pacion. My written work and videos have received world-wide recognition and some acclaim. The basis of My YouTube Channel is the written word, poetry and prose. I read my own poetry, modern and hip, classical, yet everyday, both lyrical and narrative in style. My Channel, Stanley Pacion, is a V blog, somewhat autobiographical, though filed with flights of fancy, and all kinds of fanciful, romantic imagery. Although My Channel is a series of video uploads, it represents a literary effort entitled, A BIG BOOK OF MY OWN. Written text accompanies all my uploads. Also, My Channel is eclectic, featuring “how-to-do-it” videos, and informative travelogues from my home base here in India. I have also included several “love letters.” Those, too, have enjoyed warm critical response. I am a former history professor. You will find a few historical essays on ancient Greece and Rome. There is an account of how Julius Caesar used his marriages to advance his power, only to find himself undone by bringing the Egyptian Queen, Cleopatra, as his consort to Rome. Don't shy away; stories about Sparta and Nero's Roman court might surprise you. There is also an account of how Julius Caesar used his marriages to advance his power, only to find himself undone by bringing the Egyptian Queen, Cleopatra, as his consort to Rome. I would bet that you will find me interesting and personable, and some fun. Take a look at how I see the world with my words and through my videos. Subscribe

LOVE HURTS,
Love Email, 3

Dearest Etta,


I got off the telephone with you about an hour or so ago, and once again a flood of memories and feelings beset me. Our long distance and our long time apart may be the end of me. Poor me! Poor me! Honest, it is very hard for me to pretend I am grown up, a man about this whole separation business. I feel alone. I am more like a child. I suffer terrible separation anxiety. Right this moment I want to scream aloud, and, if it would do me any good at all, I would. I would scream aloud in pain.


Also, I am having a physical reaction. Juices are being released in my stomach, which never happens to me even when I am hungry. This is not just my imagination. No! I am physically afflicted. Longing for you, just to be near to you, causes me ache even in my forearms. My elbows hurt. I swear I feel the ache of this profound longing even in the calves of my legs, in my knee caps. I know you believe me to be exaggerating, but it's true, darling. It is true! I am now in the middle of some devil angst.

Last night I had another bad spell, very bad. I felt an exhaustion overcome me. I lay down in the bed right off my office area, and almost curled up in a ball. I was in the fetal position. I began to swoon. If only I could come up against you. I need only your body warmth. I need only to be up over and against you.

Playing on the TV set at the bottom of the bed was a PBS special, which now had a segment about the Warsaw Ghetto. I did not actually see the video portion, but the mournful sounds, oh, the so sad background music, matched my interior mood. How's that for big-time sacrilege, down right sinful! It is a terrible comparison, I know. I have no right making it. But I try to portray the mood, the dark-cloud mood over me. My pain over missing you tied to the agony of tens of thousands souls living in Hell and then about to be transported to an absolute Hell. Now you know, sweet heart! Now you know! Now you have a glimpse of the pain I am in. I am truly a lost soul.

Yours, S.

MAKE BELIEVE*


I have an idea. Why not today,
Even now, this very moment,
However late the hour,
We could act as if
Neither one of us once allowed
The words “I love you” to form upon our lips.

Come on! What's with you?
Given our situation, it's worth a try.


Let's pretend we know not each other,
That within us desire plays no role.
Make believe that soul meeting soul
Is silly stuff, a bit of romantic nonsense.
Might we suppose that memories are absent,
And the tumult of heartache, not a factor at all!

Maybe then, at sunrise tomorrow,
We awake and find that nothing remains between us,
No more happiness or sorrow,
No hint of regret or regard.

Love, what love, love had never been ours.

*Josephine L.A. Ranes' poem, “Let's Pretend,” prompted my own verse version on the topic of make-believe. http://abeautifultragedyjosephine.blogspot.in/
Let's Pretend

We'll act as if
You never said "I love you."
Pretend like we never wanted
One another.
Let's pretend
We just don't care
Today.
Maybe then
We really won't


Tomorrow.

WINTER LOVE MELANCHOLY, 
Love Email, 5,
Originally composed, 8 January 2008


Dear Etta,

Forgive me. I write, while I wear my heart on my sleeve. The Holidays have come and gone, and the last few days have been ice and wind.

I have no idea what the future holds.

I think of you often. Now we have been apart for three long months. I am anticipating your return home and into my arms again, but have some trepidation because I surely can not read your mind nor really know that you will keep your word.

Still I keep your memory vital. Your voice resides in my ears. The picture of your loveliness is in my mind today, fresh. That image remains the same today as it was yesterday, when I had thought about you throughout the hours, and the same as it was the day before, and so many of the other days, the other days which had gone before yesterday.

I write this poem for you.

WINTER LOVE MELANCHOLY


The seabirds cry by the sea,
Their songs are sad,
Their refrains freight my melancholy.

And in the distance a fog horn,
It, too, sounds a plaintive note;
It repeatedly revives my sorrow.

There is a damp, hard, winter wind.
It beats on me, causes terrible chill.

The nights remain very long;
I fear that I may have lost forever 
The memory of how the summer sun warms. 

And now my mind succumbs to the foreboding;
Oh I dread that I might never kiss you again!


I hope to have you here with me, again, shortly, your warmth in my arms, your smile illuminating the depths of my bosom, and the rooms of our house once more.

I am very truly yours, S.

PSALM 23,
A Psalm of King David

1 The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he
leadeth me beside the still waters.
3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of
righteousness for his name's sake.
4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow
of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod
and thy staff they comfort me.
5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of
mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup
runneth over.
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all
the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the
LORD for ever.

TRAVELER


I have a happy heart. Yes, indeed!
I smack my lips at the prospect of life!

I’ve said it!
Knock me out,
Or knock me down!
Otherwise I would like to float around,
Flying in the sun. All I ever wanted,
All I ever wanted was to fly in the sun!

Yet, though not to forget,
Nothing quite matches
The overall sensation of a hard tropical rain.

O' me, I just want to have some fun.

I love being a man about town,
Chauffeured all over. Here and there,
Like some impossibly fortunate traveler,
Who, whatever the turn in the highway,
Always sees great expectations,
Blessed with the wisdom, which says,
That within this moment rests all delight.


How lucky I feel inside!

I am just that type of guy,
O' me, yes, why indeed,

I just want to have some fun!

ALWAYS, After Pablo Neruda


Do not believe,
Do not suppose, if even for a moment,
That I care.
Forget about it!

I am not concerned about those other men,
The lovers who came before me.

Your friends, the guys who once had staked,
Had boasted title to the blood rush of your heart,
They mean nothing to me.

Come to me carrying an old boyfriend on your shoulders.

Show me that picture,
The one which has a hundred men sniffing your hair.
Conjure up a mother goddess image,
A thousand guys nestling between your breasts,
Or tell me you have had acolytes adoring your feet.

Flood me over as were your memories
A monsoon river torrent, when in mid-July it empties
The mountain-gulley slopes of Goa,
And speeds all great, red earth out into the Arabian Sea.

Roar into me with the tidal wave of all your mementos,
The debris of your keepsakes,
The twisted wreck of every precious gift,
Which once had been bestowed upon you
From the bleeding hearts of your now-drowned lovers.

Let me see the length and width, that terrible demolition,
How long the debris stretch as all your memories hit the beach,
How deep and far its tear inland, up, over the coastline!

All humanity succumbs to the timeless motion of the surf.

Yet here I am.
I wait, I am waiting for you.
No matter what, who you bring along.

We are alone, we shall always be alone,
We shall always be you and I.

And here -- here is the time when,
The place where, our love begins anew.
Our affection reaches beyond the stint of ordinary dimension,


It has settled in for the term we call immortality.
