The Shepherd's Hour
The Shepherd's Hour
The moon is red on misty horizon
Within a dancing fog, and the plains
In vapor dozing, the frog complains
Among the reeds, where chill has arisen
***
Water flowers have closed their petals
In distance far, poplars show profile
Straight and tight their ghosts unseen awhile
And between the bush, glowworms shuttle
**
The owls now awake, noiseless take flight
Rowing the black air with heavy wings
The zenith full, a fainting glow blinks
White, Venus emerges, it is Night *

The Universe
The universe is wide.
With stars,sparkly and bright.
That illuminates the night.
And erases all of our fright.
No matter the length or height.
We always look at it as an incredible sight.
Blue,purple,black.
There isn't anything the universe does lack.
Now,let me loud and clear.
The universe is the reason we are here.
With stars,planets,space.
The galaxies dance in grace.
Like dark,magical lace.
That puts a smile on your face.
With nightlights far away.
In our memory and existence,it does...

Gravimetric
The moon betwixt the new and full
goes through the afternoon,
then from the full the Earth will pull
it back to newly lune.
And thus as heaven's shuttlecock
it rackets to and fro
above the sultry summer stock
and over winter snow.
Thereby is how the game is played,
by every planetoid,
in varied orbitals arrayed
throughout the stellar void...
where nothing postulates the math
no entity at all
but nature as a psychopath
who likes to have things fall.

Moon's Day Out
Yesterday was,
I freely admit,
one of the most
fulfilling days
of my existence.
I had tons of fun
in front of the Sun
For four blessed minutes
I took center stage
blocking that gas balls
braggadocious rays.
Granted, without his
warmth and light
would no living
organism survive.
But, hey, I'm important too
Am I not the prince tides?
Could you see
the birds go crazy
and the humans shout
when I blocked the big guy out?
Man I felt such happiness
blanketing the
world in darkness. ...

Astral
Today you can find me in the cosmos
While my body lay limp in bed
A blue silk blindfold tied around my eyes
A cat purring softly by my side
But my mind is in the cosmos
For Earth is too much to bear
And I need to escape
Flesh stricken by gravity’s weight
Consciousness lighter than air
As I rise from my body slowly
I look down upon the Earth
Bones in backyards
Souls who are starved
Floating by unanswered prayers
In the cosmos there is mystery
That alters my small perspective
But...

The End
The hidden sun hides
shadows over the cosmos
a cosmic breath entombed
colliding worlds, awaiting doom

Planet mapping
Astrologically,
I am an ant
with a banana ascendant
and a moon transiting in a crystal.
I believe that all of this is very well
and that reading
my personal birth chart
would be like enjoying
a good collection of erotic poetry
from Paleolithic cave walls.
Or maybe just not really,
whatever the case may be.
I'll ask for Saturn's positions
next time...

Devil's Trip
When my sun comes down
a crimson cosmos astounds
i appear with winter's wind
I'm free as summer's sin
sing a song this mourning
telling tales of warning
purple clouds, demon bubbles
cosmic dreams, strangers in trouble
to die is to wake at the strike of twelve
he welcomes us all to the gates of hell

Star Wars
The stars are aligned with my soul,
Mars as my fingernails,
Read this brail,
We seek and tell the truth,
Venus like a belt, this loop,
Is seldomly moved,
Neptunes a lace, placed inside the loops of my shoes like snakes when they move,
My heart,
Races hard,
Mars is my guard, come marvel and march with me,
Walk quickly to saturn,
Eclipsed to the masses this glyph,
Like a lantern burning pictures to ashes,
Risk is all i have,
My eyes on venus,
Rise like creases in jeans im neat what it seems,
We speak wit a meaning,...

The Mesonoxian Order
It's in radio wave propagation
mimicking stone drop ripples in a lake
or the wave forms of a sidewinder snake
in a state of venomous predation
as constant as retro broadcasting pips
in evermore globular expansion
toward heaven's zodiacal mansion,
like songs from Aphrodite's dulcet lips
scoring all of the steady cosmic states
with the epicycling glissando beams
an angel host might see in all their dreams
where background splendor officiates,
as it does from Saturn's awesome rings,
down through all the hearts...full...

Too many
I have had plenty of many moms,
some witches, which is not that bad,
many hags, who had made me sad.
So many moms so little differences...
Some such bad opinions to share,
some much good ideas to spare.
I can recognize them with a glare.
I can sort them by a simple affair.
I spot all of them here and there.
Waiting at my classroom door...
Trying to read my thoughts.
Aiming to reach me in a hunt.
Moms should never get close
to their children teachers, ever!
Our planets are too far away...

A Sonnet for The Solstice
Here we are at winter's solstice
where it's tough to stay warm and dry.
Yet some things from summer I will not miss
such as the lazy bumble fly.
Or excessive auto exhaust.
Or thorns on blackberry vines.
And roadkill, by Goodyear tire embossed,
whereon that bumble fly dines.
Such scenes on hot August asphalt
make summer such a wretched thing,
like that whole humidity gestalt
with all of its hidrosis cling!
The best time on the calendar, or clocks,
is either one, or the other...equinox!
