Dreams & Things
Meet me in our domain
Upon
The astral plane
Where
We might discuss: Pleasure
&
Pain.
Love & lust. Levitation inside of a circle of trust.
Encircling
the
stardust
of
Us
Like fairy lights in a night which sings
A way
which seems
like
Living life giving: Dreams
&
Things

What is a Thought Cabinet?
It is where the mind bottles the sludge of its reckonings.
Where drunken aspiration meets the austerity of fruitless striving.
Where ambition is tempered in the fires of failure, and resentment bubbles like carbonated rosemary beads.
It is the disarray that trauma wrecked, prized as ornaments or displayed in agonised crucifixion.
It is the hole that some ragged thing has crawled to.
It is a strange idea that cornerlessly yields to logic.
Where drunken aspiration meets the austerity of fruitless striving.
Where ambition is tempered in the fires of failure, and resentment bubbles like carbonated rosemary beads.
It is the disarray that trauma wrecked, prized as ornaments or displayed in agonised crucifixion.
It is the hole that some ragged thing has crawled to.
It is a strange idea that cornerlessly yields to logic.

Dream-Seeking Under Moonlight
Dreaming under clouds,
moonlight shines upon the fields,
truth is foretold now.
Beast upon the moor,
softly speaks the song of wind,
dream is given gift.
Healing in thy dream,
stone-laid path is long and hard,
light embraces thee.
Fate is under night,
dream-traveling mind is glad,
bright rest in gold shines.
Thou hast named the dream,
wind-blown was my spoken word,
moon now seeks for thee.
moonlight shines upon the fields,
truth is foretold now.
Beast upon the moor,
softly speaks the song of wind,
dream is given gift.
Healing in thy dream,
stone-laid path is long and hard,
light embraces thee.
Fate is under night,
dream-traveling mind is glad,
bright rest in gold shines.
Thou hast named the dream,
wind-blown was my spoken word,
moon now seeks for thee.

Lazy Day ....
Today I want to waste it away
In the cold light of the day
Why roll out of bed for office strife
When I could just as easily go on strike?
I will make that call
Not well at all!
Such is modern life
I want to laze away the day
Listen to songs that feed the soul
Nothing too hard -
Just something that captures
And takes hold
Coffee sounds good like it should
A full cup I'll be drinking
As you would
Netflix I'll stream while I dream
Imagining now a beautiful scene
If...

The glass sun copies

I Just Want Warmth
Oh, how I hate these changing seasons,
cold, warm, warm, cold.
Mother Nature, please make up your mind,
can I work in the yard or prepare for more ice?
Rain here, sleet there,
I just want my garden and sweet tea,
that would be nice.
Winter boots or tank tops, or a mixture of both?
Take one off, put two back on, what a cruel joke.
cold, warm, warm, cold.

Waste Not, Want Not
Ripping out my lungs and a kidney
Until you tell me you don’t need it
But it is too late
Because I am writhing on the ground
In a puddle of my blood and tears
Wondering why
I gave things I needed
To someone
Who already had them
Until you tell me you don’t need it
But it is too late
Because I am writhing on the ground
In a puddle of my blood and tears
Wondering why
I gave things I needed
To someone
Who already had them

Glass of Water
Water fountain
Spitting out hot water
Third degree burns
Cover my arm
How long have I had these wounds?
Was the water always this hot?

Veils & Veneers
Shadows over snow
Freshly fallen -
Sorrow:
Caress of blessing across furrow
of
Brow. Here
&
Now.
Yesterday-Today-Tomorrow:
Somehow.
Beholding thresholds
of
fears/tears
Functioning machines of broken sunbeams
Tears/fears
Veils & Veneers.

Smoking That Destiny Pack
Placed upon the face of this place
From whence
do
we come – To where
do
We: Go
Meet me in this place of time & space
Show me your
Soul
The embers
of
This world
Breathing: Fiery coal
upon
Fiery coal
Incinerated in shapes of inescapable fates

fact is (and always will be ..)
don’t do new musicians or authors
or films much
as I read the reviews
I prefer the old stuff like
the beatles trad jazz louis mcniece
old black and white
cinematography anything that doesn’t confuse
truth with lies
