Above all the spirits and blood

stained fragments


the very sun

that shone on her shoulders

   that parches your throat

   that does not reach

down

into this verse

that even now
is still

caged of this earth

.
.

Things you can count on

styrofoam rocks thrown into the wind

This Is Evening Three Hundred and Six


colder than snow-frozen tears
and winter's unbroken clouds
 "I'm sorry
 I don't know anything."

Floating under the moonlit sea
angels above
dancing on water

are the children green Giggling yet?



..

Seven thirty Seven

 words  spread
like butter on toast

 ... I still can hear
     without lips

 - stopped now
in the middle of a complete sentence

I pinch myself

 left here to end something
I don't know how to define

.

shell

Where would we
would you not like to be
 

with everything
holding on to everything else
the ocean spoke
How can my love be felt in the world
like your love in every sense of the word

of God and Forever
Amen

post needed

Remember
we used to say
what's the word I'm looking for

Wondering
like when you think you know
but still can't remember
A name

Something is about
this that's missed

Separate in  Andromeda


..

Your not far away

We freed each other
without truth or voice
 with  "what's"

hidden between words
only seen held up to the sky

Heartbeat speeches from seeds

She said" it IS
amazing how a song can make

the whole day like a musical"
he was thinking about asking
"what about if I made an 'other' choice
answered with    :more sadness

If you think about it
more likely
maybe sadness maybe joy
and the world "meaningless"
came to mind.


Well, nothing to learn here
or even there or three
places at once
because if there
then
and what I don't know
is all that matters



...

the meaning of Akin

because  was enough
and  enough had become like
the car recalled

chaos heat or a storm
neither swept through  brains or eyes
boneless  wet season
blowing dry

I admire the consistency of range but

but oh the sick days
hidden as diamonds come out
akin to a confession

.

enfolded layers

"I'm doing a drawing damn you"
A thought I've never had
It was always a chore to draw

I hear a strange sound
rippling the silence
In severed  dreams
rainbows implode and disappear
Into the ghostly rose
of some forgetful purity

A gaze into the soul of love
that keeps awake the world

Counting the branches
reaching
in space
between thoughts


I no longer need words


 click


 older and deeper than
what lies between us

He woke near a window
drowning in light

with  ocean
scents
and a fake looking sky

 i count on my tears to jump the fence and
 free my imprisoned smile


...x

towards the flat end of the sky

wide open
long lasting
heart pointed in your direction moments like these are
like


flying skyward in
smooth silence
through clouds pulsing the sky

.

thermal tounament

To the vastness and truth
of who we are

I wait in an
unfolding now blue sky
warm born inside
as early spring

 light comes down through  the gaps
amid this morning  like silence
through the high windows cut out of light
Inside the constant embrace  
wonderful
aren't  you

thoughts that are
where a heart  belongs
bring memory to space, sparrows and time
