Golden you
In each of world religion teachings
Among all the self-righteous preaching
I find some things I think are true
This one is: there’s a golden you
There is a you who loves to live
To care, to love and freely give
The highest truths for which you long
Are just covered, they are not gone
The world told you you are a sinner
They programmed you to be a “winner”
For a dog eats dog world
They covered the true you with dirt
But you don’t have to be this way
For inside you there is a sun
That waits for you to set it...

forests
forests,
each tree
proudly as
individuals,
each detailed
within
their own
manners,
each mind
firm,
the place
you remember,
but their
acceptance
to be
something more,
combined,
a community.

Ever-changing
Strength
You are enough you always were , and always will be, you were just a heart block trying to contort yourself into a square hole . giving the wrong people far too much ammo , and then acting surprised when they shot you square in the chest. Living truly becomes worth it when you stop trying to fit where you don't belong .I am so proud of you .Look how far you have come my dear , color now dances across your cheeks , life flows through your veins. You are so healthy now my love . That scared 90 pound ghost is no longer you , with bleeding veins , aching bones and empty eyes ....

Twas a wear'in O the green and gold
upon Saint Patty's Day
that broke me old thought process mold
on nature and fair play
for when an ancient truth be told,
as then as well as now,
ya blow a breath both sweet and bold
as manners will allow.
Cuz after that it's off your back,
that duty to the truth,
and you can get your life on track
to never be uncouth...
since couth becomes its own reward,
(and ladies dig it too),
which even paupers can afford...
when they're not sniffing glue!

sudden illness and a nurse
Sudden illness and a nurse
it is Saturday, the air has a whiff of spring
and I was too tired to go to the bakery
to get my, one a week Danish Pastry
It was a week when my wife ended up in
hospital, I knew what was wrong with her
but I was overruled by the health doctor
In the evening, as I was having a glass of wine
and a forbidden cigarette on the balcony
prepared for a calm evening, a knock on
the door of the unwanted.
A couple related to my wife came to visit
her at the hospital (I think my wife rang)

This road I’m blessed to walk
This road I’m blessed to walk
Requires little talk
Requires lots of knowing
Requires lots of doing
Requires lots of calm
Requires lots of peace
This road I walk in silence
No drama and no violence
No hall of fame for me
My deepest wish: to just be
Sometimes I miss the chatter
Sometimes I miss the talk
But depth is my reward
On this road I’m blessed to walk
Requires little talk
Requires lots of knowing
Requires lots of doing
Requires lots of calm
Requires lots of peace
This road I walk in silence
No drama and no violence
No hall of fame for me
My deepest wish: to just be
Sometimes I miss the chatter
Sometimes I miss the talk
But depth is my reward
On this road I’m blessed to walk

Nothing matters
Submit and bow down.
You can learn alot from Me.
A woman with a very sexual power.
She be my psycho.
Our natural position is composition.
Sweet sounds,alluring,
no rules in nature.
In a pool of water,
A pair of scissors,
nothing matters.
Already dead,before dumped.
Safely made it back to land.
We went into slavery to rise.
Flow in,
flooded intrusion.
Lost,
Lost into caves.
Nothing matters.

BECAUSE IT'S YOURS
YES!
Because
you asked me to,
I will think about it;
Because I've never
seen one before
I will take a look.
Because I've had
an aversion, yes
I will touch it.
Because it is yours
I will hold it.
Because it's your
new pet snake I
will go against my
better judgment and
handle it.......
"HEY!
"I think I'm beginning.
to like snakes; especially yours."

I need for you to
SHOW me how you feel.
SHOW me your pain.
SHOW me what you desire.
SHOW me what you need.
SHOW me where you hurt.
SHOW me where you want
to be pleasured and how.
SHOW me what you don't want.
SHOW me your feelings.
SHOW me your lust.
SHOW me your secret.
SHOW me your love.
Meet me at the Kissing
PLACE and I'll show YOU.
We CAN figure it out!

Moment in time. Rare selection. Part 1
Skating between the tall bulbous trees, happily greeted by leaves.
Spring will be soon.
Empty plastic bag stopping momentarily,fluid momentum. Rests it's complex head,on grass.
So still,empty bag ripples like waves,caressed by rain,coming of age.
Moments have collapsed and still empty bag, comfortable,is approached by a solitary magpie.
Moved by sorrow, empty bag slides and glides, like on an icing rink.
I look down.
I look back up.
Empty bag passess to the other side.

the Saragossa sea
The Saragossa sea
Once I saw where the horizon ends
a ship ploughing the the sky
White tear on pale blue.
I saw the waiting darkness before
the others did
Look, I said, but it was too late
the ship cast anchor behind a cloud
loading mist for Dogger Bank
Take onboard discarded dreams
to plug the dikes in Amsterdam
Sunflowers on the mythical sea
and red-flying fish
My ship is bound for the Saragossa sea
with a cargo of old sailors
where they will stalk the forgotten

a man and his dog (edited)
Man and his dog
He awoke under the bed and sneezed as it was dusty
it had been my birthday, drinking champagne
eating Danish pastry and smoking Havana cigars
walked into the kitchen, opened the fridge, took
out a beer, which he thirstily drank while wondering
why everything was so quiet
The maid had been in when he slept,
everything was
in order, when did the guests leave or had he partied
with his teddy bear, feeling lonely since the dog died
Looking out of the window, he saw many cars but
no drivers, and some of the car...
