Woodsprite——————————~*
villanelle/fantasy]
Whilst wand'ring through the woods one sunny day,
I came upon a sprite so wondrous faire …
she danced ~ then, whirled and stole my heart away.
Oh, how the air became so light and gay ...
each sunbeam glinting through her golden hair,
whilst wand'ring through the woods one sunny day.
'Twas once her hand brushed mine in gleeful play,
with tenderness and loving, gentle care ...
she danced ~ then, whirled and stole my heart away. ...

Evolving beyond all time
Gaze out into the distance
see me just searching..
The stars are on my mind,
I’m feeling shapeless..
and in the chasms of my mind
I sense you lurking,
you just lead me but don’t deceive,
I’m left weightless..
I’ve trekked through each timeline
a thousand times,
I saw no end in sight or signs of sureness..
It’s not known just when we’ll break through
but you’ll see me
I’ll feel you..
with our essence evolving,
essence evolving
evolving beyond all time..
We can leave behind what’s lost but ...

unsounded.
I can't fully remember
how you sound
not exactly
not anymore
Not your timbre
or sass
distinctive in style
Nor the retorts, so slick and searing
and not that laugh
yeah—
That. Tremendous. Laugh.
I'd barter away most things
without an iota of care
to hear it.... just once more
My mind accesses it
as warped and warbly
What I think-perhaps or maybe
what I once thought
so sure, of what I thought I remembered
Close, but not quite
almost.... but just out of grasp ...

Happy Holidays
I notice the cars now.
The lot is empty.
Has been for 4 days.
That's when the last snow was and there's no tracks.
I haven't left home in 5.
It's around Christmas now.
I imagine i'm alone in this apartment complex.
No tracks for 4 days.
I light up.
'No ones around to catch me'
I feel sly but its too cold.
I check the mail and walk back upstairs.
And am hit with a sad deja' vu
Something in BIsmarck, H-----n St.
The apartments where at any given time 4-10 people lived at in a small 2 bedroom.

A Garden For Your Ghost (9/11)
The day you left, Autumn went with you
It was winter right away
The city kind, where snow falls heavy, and gray
-and snowmen slouch to their knees in muck.
While I stood in the archway
of a cracked-face store
staring at the sky,
waiting for the rain.
-Waiting for you to walk up
and show me that you're okay.
I know, in the illogic of my heart
that you've not gone,
you simply left to follow the sun.
I know, as I fall to the fate of sleep
that you stir awake.
Not so far off, that I can't hear you still ...

The obscurity of lavender wishes
Permanently damaged
that tender underbelly
of cosmic purity
rots away
diseased by a singular gesture
to a final wish
to blow up the ground
of multi-colored
or another
and then the night
breath is not predestined
but the way
of her mouth
and even more
then can be found
The very ones whose love
is withheld,
now are the only...

Pathways
Many of the pathways I take in life will lead to nowhere
And I shall find my self there
***
I seek a far and shadowed distance
Deepening shadow 'neath the fir and pine
A place where silence speaks if you but listen
And in the silences I shall learn to hear again
And to see anew
There
Where pathways are dappled by sunlight and shadow
And colored with greens of varied hues.
What is distance to the forested hills
Which roll like the swells of a living green ocean
For one cannot travel as the crow flies here ...
And I shall find my self there
***
I seek a far and shadowed distance
Deepening shadow 'neath the fir and pine
A place where silence speaks if you but listen
And in the silences I shall learn to hear again
And to see anew
There
Where pathways are dappled by sunlight and shadow
And colored with greens of varied hues.
What is distance to the forested hills
Which roll like the swells of a living green ocean
For one cannot travel as the crow flies here ...

where the sun greets the edge of the sea..
.. through the trees
figures appear..,
as movement get closer
and focus is clear..
realizing now
“hey that’s not a deer”,
strange beings dressed
in threaded skins,
awkwardly walking
they came crumbling in..
hands in the air..
a shout “hello”,
others wave back,
“we’re not a foe”,
“we plea for help
to survive these lands”,
”of course we will help,
we’ll give you a hand”.. ...

… crossroads: respect
hold the door open
not just for a friend,
charge like a boar
to be the first in..
hold hands tightly
to show where you
stand,
view of affection
not in the partner’s
plan..
pardon me
works any given day,
...
