Psyche and Eros
radical
intentionally transgressive
sexuality
connected to deep
sometimes ominous
psychic archetypes
interrelated
activities
and relationships
combining
eroticism sexual expression and
structured authority imbalances
Psyche
(fearing Eros may be a monster)
enters darkened bedchamber
cautiously hovering
over her lover
with a lamp and a knife
classic tale of desire
longing secrecy mystery
domination submission
degradation suffering
mortal peril ...

the poetic mind
imagines
metaphorically

is not sentimental
nor inscrutable
a poet
thinks in a way that allows
layers of meaning
a poet

every dream as myth and poetry
poets foster aesthetic readiness
to be surprised to be moved
by images
visual
auditory
tactile
olfactory
gustatory
words sounds gestures
creating worlds
through metaphor
layering
piling up
meaning
poetic images ...

Songs Without Meaning
voiceless singers
quietly humming hymns
out loud or within
hard to tell unless they yell
invisible bells
ringing in silence
toes tapping
to absent rhythms

December Morn
like sugar on breakfast donuts
morning snow lightly dusts peaks
chilling eerily calm air
that makes nostrils flare
yellow green finches
bathe playfully at cracks in ice
fragrant coffee warms
icy fingers

Seasonal Change
born from winter
spring emerges
evolves into summer
summer diving into fall
autumn falling
into winter
perhaps seasons
don’t change
we do

The Care After
pupils dilated mind
afloat among celestial bodies
in deep subspace
covered in tears
sweat
flaming red welts
gasping
for breath
chest heaving
strong arms and kind words
carry her softly
back to earth
