Poet Introduction
Zero_Stillness
Everywhere
The cosmic song
Converged through aether
Reaching into the netherworld
Across great gulfs of darkness
Like fingertips into surfaces
Spreading out and scattering
In butterfly wing things
The notes of the scales
Imprint on the mind like horizons
Expansive, linear, and wild
Your eyes peeled back
And revealed a heart in fragments
And frames of slow motion light speed
Now then… Compose yourself
Like the tattered rags of a ghost
Recognize the entry point of
Everywhere
Converged through aether

Imprint on the mind like horizons
Expansive, linear, and wild
Your eyes peeled back
And revealed a heart in fragments
And frames of slow motion light speed
Now then… Compose yourself
Like the tattered rags of a ghost
Recognize the entry point of

All Roads Lead to the Stars
Longitude of roads
From mind to mind’s eye
Impressed in memory
As a swing of a typewriter key
Impresses into parchment
In a white-light drenched moment
As a supernatural sun
Is a preternatural star
Littering glitter over the mind
That becomes – Beauty’s victim
Searching for a sign
Enmeshed in space and time
Where optical networks
Convey the neurons of emotions
Presenting intricate questions
Existing behind curtains
We are made of star
We live under sun
I thought of my love

Affairs of the Afars
Sequestered in a cloister.
A blood letting ritual.
The monastery...
The promontory...
Every star is a voice
to be studied
in strangeness...
To ask the universe
Have I paid for this?
Because there are only solitary souls
in the depths
That seem to see each other from afar.

Honestly
Honestly
I’m only now discovering the definition of
Honesty
And In between
Feelings of a complete lack of feelings
I have to say…
Quite honestly
It is my great privilege to know you in any capacity

Aphrodite Rising (III of III)
Divinity in Darkness
Times of High Strangeness call into question the nature of the reality in which we exist, a world of phenomenon and perception. When our notions of consensus reality are bent and even broken, we are set adrift in the neo-gravity of the unknown, a spaceman out of the capsule and into space, approaching the end of the tether, like an amphibious creature roaming the land, meeting the end of it’s terrestrial capacity with no water in sight, synonymous with the dreamer or the thinker in the realms of thoughts and dreams.

Tell Me Sweet Little Lies
The beginning of the algorithm
the first inputs of algorithm
The twirling signs
in the spiraling bodies
of the celestial firmament
The creature
that can capture
your mind
and imagination
your heart
and fascination
the art
of supreme seduction
She has a mind like mine
She has opened my eyes
I came upon the masterpiece
and was stunned by the beauty
wanting to gaze for eternity
Your stars and cosmic dust
exist in my mind also
mind of my mind ...

Aphrodite Rising (II of III)
* *
The branches of a tree took on the shape of a gnarled hand, twisting out of the Earth, reaching out into the darkness, creating the fortified structure of an enriched shadow, in which I stood… Watching. Taking the pulse of my surroundings.
I breathed in the equanimity of a peace that is evolved from confrontations with nightmarish figures in the labyrinths of the underworld of the self, finding a line in the fabric of the night, moving with single minded purpose.
My foot made contact with the wall, propelling my upward grasp to pull me up in one...

Across the Universe
Stardust glitters in the atmosphere
Languid lingering
Amongst nucleator cells
And bursts of the sun
Butterfly wings
Azure sky of deepest summer
White silk scarf
Dances in the breeze
Rain drops on tin roofs
Divots in the dirt
Shadows in a child’s eyes
Lovers kiss
Seeing black – Seeing white
Vagabonds roam
Ocean wave bursting on a stone
A jaguar on a tree branch
Hypnotic equanimity
Lucid dreaming of You
Languid lingering
Amongst nucleator cells
And bursts of the sun
Butterfly wings
Azure sky of deepest summer
White silk scarf
Dances in the breeze
Rain drops on tin roofs
Divots in the dirt
Shadows in a child’s eyes
Lovers kiss
Seeing black – Seeing white
Vagabonds roam
Ocean wave bursting on a stone
A jaguar on a tree branch
Hypnotic equanimity

Aphrodite Rising
Agent 007 (I of III)
The lambent flame flickers over the dark candles. Dragon’s blood essential oils permeate the room, as incense smoke faded into the walls and the ceilings, in a make shift cave, one of three cave like dwellings, established to contain the spells.
I was sitting on a faux leather chair, at a desk, both purchased at the local thrift store. I held a transfixed gaze into sacred space, seeing or feeling a savage fierceness behind my own eyes.
On the desk was a makeshift altar, composed of a small, independent wooden shelf that I found on a...

OM.G
In deep black of burial chasms
Black silence pervaded
Darkness and distance invaded
Distance and darkness awaited
Dust particles streamed
The screaming abyss dreamed
Microcosms into macrocosms
Dark fatalism is sated
Trepanation skull contemplated
Time out of space is extricated
Nothing as it seemed
The screaming abyss dreamed
Then butterfly wings
Whispering at the parameters
Brilliant light ventures
Nothing really matters
Mechanical eyes beginning
Process of awakening
Particles glitter...

Thoughts in the Vacancies
My (Eyes)
Adjusted to the night -
Detecting traces of light
Gatherings of rain
Pulsated and became
Strange surfaces of a looking glass.
The breeze came alive
Leaves began to move and whisper
In this Axis Mundi all I saw was… Life
We’re all part of the same organism.
