SPIRITUAL POEM

the singing bowl [gong]

take me to nirvana        
down an alley            
in mullumbimbi            
            
where silent ombre hippies          
shuck faux chakras            
in temples of fire and steam            
           
sadist priests conjure            
blissful depths of inferno            
in a vortex of eucalypt ghost flame            
           
the rite of sweat and chloral rapture            
          
[gong]     
           
euphoria gurgles and puffs            
amongst the golden...

LOVE POEM
Published

pets

the art of attachment
she knows the rules    
no touching    
no friction    
    
friends for life    
     
she knows loss    
unanswered    
senseless    
     
love and devotion is only a dream    
a game    
played within the dimensions of her bed    
     
beyond the outskirts of nightstands    
she remains untouchable    
unattainable  
   
lost insight of the poacher     
my sacrificial dove
can not be held in a cage
     
she knows the rules    ...

misconstrued [man]ifestations

side [A] be a man        
         
stock standard virulent beefcake        
uncouth        
king pawn wired for violence        
through war he yields peace        
         
look back across the mountain pass        
a forged foreign landscape        
i barely recognise my [broken] self        
         
she thinks the mechanics are simple        
loving him can not simply be        
         
hearts are tempered and minds honed        
         
he is unearthed        
transformed         ...

[k n o W i t]

you dont belong here              
i know it                  
you know it                  
    they know it                  
                 
self doubt pilfers        order         harmony          balance                  
                 
atomic hour thunders down the track                  
you are a piece of grit caught in a vacuum                  
where air is soured with the stench of piss soaked shit                  
                 
the world comes crashing over in an endless wave of damage                  ...

LOVE POEM

the universe

faded memory of his mother
fragment of beauty and enlightenment  
cut short  
when she stood by the window  
lulled from meditation  

❖

the universe will provide  
 
a boy  
the love phoenix  
awoken from ashen shell  
 
a handsome jester  
with worrier mind and guardian soul  
the adorable cub destined to break hearts  
 
the universe will provide  
 
a beautiful daughter with sun-shaped heart  
unwaning exuberance  
she burns for life  
  ...

unabated truth

the land with plenty  
conceived me  
    
a generation plagued by first world hardship    
nurtured and gave rise to the individual    
   
the embellished bigot    
   
i fear the empire of conspiracy    
a world with limitations    
no pleasure    
no freedom    
no rights    
no soapbox for outspoken youth    
   
i fear desire restrained by necessity    
   
i want rebellion    
someone to overthrow the government    
defile every symbol of sovereignty    
i want to...
