the secrets of life

Poetry by Dr. Terrell Neuage © 2025 Adelaide, Australia

the secrets of life 
I chased through your eyes 
evening rose 
your touch filled the skies 
I went to sleep
with you
in my mind
but woke 
with you
in my heart
Sometimes life is so unreal
when I think of life
I think of you more
Time is cute
like a child's flute
its magic is a surprise
even to morning rise
and it's always in rhyme
that's how I see time
NOW
when I think of you
I think of time
I think of time and the secrets of life
and I keep finding myself
galloping through your eyes.

the secrets of life

I chased through your eyes

evening rose

your touch filled the skies

I went to sleep

with you

in my mind

but woke

with you

in my heart

Sometimes life is so unreal

when I think of life

I think of you more

Time is cute

like a child's flute

its magic is a surprise

even to morning rise

and it's always in rhyme

that's how I see time

NOW

when I think of you

I think of time

I think of time and the secrets of life

and I keep finding myself

galloping through your eyes.

About Dr. Terrell Neuage

Neo-noir Neuage is a revival of noir Neuage textuality, a genre that flourished during the neo noir post-hippie era —roughly from 1970 to 2015 following the Neuage-Textuality hippie era of the 1960s. Post Neo-noir Neuage is the present time mate. [there was also the short-lived Fucked Poetry of Neuage - but we have gone pass that era...thankfully.] SEE Content/Indexof all for this cycle. To add to the possible confusion, Terrell Neuage was Terrell Adsit pre-1980 when it was changed to Neuage in Hawaii in 1980. Why the name Neuage?
