the ruling of cloud 9

with our found memories
snuggle birds, clearing the ice
fourth dream of the night
clear from their minds
everything related to the past

The big inning

This stream has stretched
into an ocean
into the widest of seas

 
the beginning how one can be
faintly bright
in this darkness
walking through 
the city of big innings

.

I knew that was up there

within Love and the
cosmos
it's
  inevitably
  simple
better  matters

swinging through the carnival of air

The road ahead
empties into
the sky
What's loved and lost
left spilling into an ocean
sinking down tides pink purple and blue
like wet sea flowers beside a human
describing movement with still images

Drink Recipe: Riviter's Friend

4 oz. dark coffee  
2 teaspoons brown sugar
2 1/2 oz. milk
1/4 oz. Vodka




This drink came from right before the Great Depression. It was used to keep the liquor tolerance
from rising. The theory was that if you drank a little liquor in the morning and then waited
at least until around dinner time to drink, then your body wouldn't build up a tolerance.

from the pantry

 

Sad ocean urged into
a faded sky
breathing
a quiet reproach of clouds
The vast night shivers
bone cold, deep, and
blue, as the universe’s ghost
walks by

..

at the edge of the thought of meditation

the truth beneath the sky
evolves across a
distance of light
and again this

rising and falling in stillness and quiet
just as you do

what practice
leaning back slightly
it's okay to
remind my ears 
I lessen 
senses gone
so way inside me that I can't end this

double now times four

as showers stall the afternoon
and heartbeats rock between the
soft gray lights 
only once didn't mean I won't forget
the absence of things
holding upon me
this world
more still than
before I wrote this
.


.

part of the forgotten shadow

 eventually comes
 rain  to fall
on all the no longer needed words
un-erasable without tears



..

perth antoine

the beautiful uncertainty of
a horizonless fog is hanging
a dreamy jacket
over melted shadow
 
like words wearing sunglasses
removing days from the calendar

.

close in a few ways

Sky spreads
looking through the lens of sea and fog
how much gold is in the sun
below rain and dreams

wonderful islands nobody owns
between the pages
that were made truly good
  
how fast  moves

I'll be In the stands
close in a few ways
Whenever you wanted to look
here there one or nothing
