Crushing Me Orange Twilight Rose
Crushing me orange twilight rose
in the dark faux bed lit chamber
from my desk sopping deck
listening to the cock crow
at the window of my squeaking Victrola
and shadows hung by a "danse macabre"

Nicking Shticks
Send me a song
fifing the dawn
of rainbows
and fiddling the moon
of the fires that burn
turning the key
as shadows comfort me
fifing the dawn
beneath blue denim skies
tinkering with a calliope
of god's musical clouds
nicking schticks of rainbow sticks
fifing the dawn
of rainbows
and fiddling the moon
of the fires that burn
turning the key
as shadows comfort me
fifing the dawn
beneath blue denim skies
tinkering with a calliope
of god's musical clouds
nicking schticks of rainbow sticks

Buckle The Knees
The sounds of the twilight
tucked away in drawers
with shadows on the yew
as autumn whispers winter
with the falling of dew
crossing the bar
the sounds of twilight
buckling the knees in prayers
tucked away in drawers
with shadows on the yew
as autumn whispers winter
with the falling of dew
crossing the bar
the sounds of twilight
buckling the knees in prayers

Where It Goes
Love is like a butterfly
it pleases where it goes
finding memories to light on
waiting for one to reply
with frail blue wings
until sundown creeps a tide
and then it dies
till dawn in the sky
it pleases where it goes
finding memories to light on
waiting for one to reply
with frail blue wings
until sundown creeps a tide
and then it dies
till dawn in the sky

Hypnagogia
In my Charles Dickens'. Between wakefulness and sleep, lucid in daydreams of hypnagogia. Of goddesses and ageless mascara worn beneath the skin of a flawless mime. Whispering to me in shadows of sleep. In dreams of homily and petite fleur.
With the essence of green tea teardrops. Emanating the mandarin red topaz rose and herbal scent of wellness. Cascading over waterfalls and cataracts in the abbey,
of peace where olive trees grow. In the sanctity of my mind's closure, as eternal sleep steals upon my composing.

Moonbeams
Put on your "big boy" pants and tattoos
deal with life without the nonsense
it's time to shed your bullshit and fantasy
of little green men and moonbeams in jars,
misleading from caviar to plastic catheter

From Cacoon
On Heaven's canvas
touching scented braille
from cacoon to mariposa
emerged blue wings
my frail butterfly
like a parasol
neath rainbow sky
feeling God's kiss

Nest Eggs
Under the treetops
of heaven's nest eggs
the sun meets the dawn
after night's starlit moon
as birds sing songs
over the dews crystal glaze
of heaven's nest eggs
the sun meets the dawn
after night's starlit moon
as birds sing songs
over the dews crystal glaze

Night's Pulse
With a shadow of "flat-foot" platypus
giving rise to the dark's ovaries
from the uterus of my poetic mind
conceived by the night's pulse
as thunder howls of hailstones
and flying monkeys scream
in Hell's twilight
giving rise to the dark's ovaries
from the uterus of my poetic mind
conceived by the night's pulse
as thunder howls of hailstones
and flying monkeys scream

Everyone Hurts
Everyone hurts sometimes
as the memories exhale
missing you when I breathe
what is remembered, dies
and all that remains is love
as the memories exhale
missing you when I breathe
what is remembered, dies
and all that remains is love

Sauteed Memories
Sauteed memories
of love's tarragon
in red wine dreams
stirring my mind's roux
of toasted garlic bread
in shadows of velvet sauce
dancing on clouds of béarnaise
of love's tarragon
in red wine dreams
stirring my mind's roux
of toasted garlic bread
in shadows of velvet sauce
dancing on clouds of béarnaise

Feather's Opera
..of lust's Hypnotica
and lock and key
with death's encore
falling in gravity
to my feather's opera
as memories never die
penned in the mind
of my macabre
at twilight's sobriety
in dark's circumstance
as dawn's death rises
of my eternal dance...
and lock and key
with death's encore
falling in gravity
to my feather's opera
as memories never die
penned in the mind
of my macabre

in dark's circumstance
as dawn's death rises
of my eternal dance...
