Her Alchemical Tools
Her magical touch
The alchemical wand
To transform
My personality.
Her Succulent skin
The playground
To sensitize
My probing fingers.
Her heart
The lyre
To render
Sacred hymns
In the holy temple.
Her glittering eyes
The light
To light my path
In the nights of adversity.
Her attentive ears
The satellite
To transmit messages
From the universe.
Her enticing words
The spaceship
To transport me
Into the spaciousness of infinity.

GOD'S ALTRUISM
GOD'S ALTRUISM
God is gentle, God is mercy.
Love for Him has not a limit.
He considers us His children.
If you are a father, fancy.
He is kinder than all creatures.
Tears were twinkling as Jesus showed
when some people died or suffered
and He does when children still do.
He directs the hands and feelings,
getting sad when we don't listen.
He resorts to tender mothers,
asking for gentle assistance.
Man imagines parents' conduct
is much softer than God's kindness,
but He does not care for all that ...
God is gentle, God is mercy.
Love for Him has not a limit.
He considers us His children.
If you are a father, fancy.
He is kinder than all creatures.
Tears were twinkling as Jesus showed
when some people died or suffered
and He does when children still do.

Man imagines parents' conduct
is much softer than God's kindness,
but He does not care for all that ...

this will be [the death of me]
there’s a nagging stench of decay
grief I cling to, entombed within
but grief is meant to be shared, isn’t it?
how many parts of me have died?
hidden inside, I collect memories
dead parts of me, mummified
I give them all a name and take
their power over me away
awake now, I lay to rest
my distress, exhale the grief
and repeat this ritual cleansing
‘til something new blooms in its place
maybe patience, or persistence
previously unknown archaic wisdoms
pretty much anything to replace ...

Red Skirt
Sprawled like so,
as if with death you sleep,
I'd think you left with it.
Your eyes as closed but flitting,
as your legs were
that first day we met.
Now, as not one thing of you moves,
I watch my last kiss dry
so slow, upon the shadowed curve
of your breast.
Your skirt, the same one
that flick-flocked across my path
a few days ago, now wraps
the bony back of my chair.
I bunch it up
-all the flowers that it smells like
-all the flowers that it blossomed like
and it pillows my head,
as I lean to...
as if with death you sleep,
I'd think you left with it.

The Blue Bus
A meeting place of vapors,
Beams stream like willows which weep;
Frost accosts
The
Window’s
Surface,
As consciousness
Surfaces
In
The
Senses, sensed -
Condensed
In
Monuments
Of
Moments,
Written in rising horizons,
Followed
From
Dust to dusk
In
A frame
Of
Pleasure and pain
That
Remains
In
Songs
Of
The end of things:
End
Of
Things.

Descent
In gothic arches of echoes,
The way of the entry
Mutes terpsichorean harpsichords,
Recorded
In
Golden chords, distorted:
The sun
Becomes
One
That is none,
As the gravity of cold
Summons
The
Soul,
Never to be sold -
To have and to
Hold,
Sole friend - next to the end,
Here -
To
Descend,
Into the land
Of only darkness,
Depth
&
Distance,
...

how the days end
laying here smoking,
thinking,
forest fires in my
head,
dogs bark outside,
prayers
to God.
aging,
hand me down
fate,
dying is the
cure.
school gym locker rooms
filled with young people
never knowing
life is a long .
suicide.
the chess board
empties with
en passant,
we are all captured
by
life feeding on
us
like bacteria,
soap sud
sadness,
too late,
too late,
too
late.

Let us leave this world together
This world is black
This world is cold
Completely destroyed
Full of hate, greed and injustice
All that's left is hope
I need to leave it
Or my wings will soon fade
Come with me
Anyone who wants a change
Leaving all the madness behind
Let us fly into a world
Full of green and warmth
No destruction
Only love, solidarity and justice
No hope's needed
Cause everything is fine
Let us leave this world together
So that our wings will grow back
Leaving all the cruel egoists behind
This world is cold
Completely destroyed
Full of hate, greed and injustice
All that's left is hope
I need to leave it
Or my wings will soon fade
Come with me

Leaving all the madness behind
Let us fly into a world
Full of green and warmth

So that our wings will grow back
Leaving all the cruel egoists behind

Lost In Space
When i try to comprehend infinity
It kind of blows my mind
As i try to unravel the myriad layers
Knowing its birth, i shall never find
I often think on how it began
Its comprehension is beyond me
As i delve deeper, and deeper
I could search, for all eternity
Apparently, outer space is expanding
Into what, i have no idea
If space has an end
What lies on the other side, is unclear
It's been a puzzle to me
For the entirety of my life's trend
As i cannot define, or understand
That infinity, seemingly, has...

We Smiled
Last night
I had an erotic dream
It was very intimate
As our breasts
Caressed softly
Our lips gently licked
And the surge of passion
Sent sparks of desire
Throughout our flesh
And thus embraced
We became as one
Tingles of pleasure
Coursed through our naked hearts
The delight
Was a thing of beauty
We remained embraced
Until the dawn
As we had been overcome by sleep
Awakened by the suns golden light
Accompanied
By a choir of birdsong
We smiled
At the tingling...
