Shadow Dancing
I live with myself full-time
The perception of others
Is temporary, a pit stop
Dancing in shadows has ceased
How my life is interpreted
Is no longer my business
The perception of others
Is temporary, a pit stop
Dancing in shadows has ceased
How my life is interpreted

Love called New Orleans
Radim Sychra & Inside Roare
Love called New Orleans
You pour foamy blood into my veins.
How a mute voice sings to me
so that I may come to life.
He flew over the rooftops of New Orleans
and sang into people's windows.
That it's me
and with me there's a new day.
You wash away our tears with seawater.
Your hands are lost in the darkness.
I'm probably late, I'm probably early,
I probably shouldn't have been here at all.
I'm probably late, I'm probably early.
To be a stone wall.
He flew over the...

leaves on trees
Leaves on trees
the trees on the great avenue
are contented this morning
no wind has blown yet
upsetting remaining leaves
that hope to be overlooked
and last one more summer
the trees are happy for them
they know, as the old couple
on the park bench know too
one fine day it all ends
the trees on the great avenue
are contented this morning
no wind has blown yet
upsetting remaining leaves
that hope to be overlooked
and last one more summer
the trees are happy for them
they know, as the old couple
on the park bench know too
one fine day it all ends

WHAT IS POETRY? (2)
I
am often asked, "What
is poetry?"
In attempts to give
academic answers that
I rarely try to practice nor
can practice very well;
I let my heart and soul answer.
NO
I cannot and would not dare
to answer for anyone else.
Poetry is like beauty, "It
is in the eyes the beholder":
IT IS IN HOW AND WHAT
IT MAKES ME FEEL--both
to write and receive.
POETRY
takes a desire and makes it real.
POETRY takes the soft
and makes it hard.
POETRY takes the dry
and makes it wet. ...

Egon Hedin the cook
Egon Hedin the cook
When I joined the ship as a second cook I had trained as a baker, on a tank ship with forty crews, one, who could bake a passable loaf was needed
The cook’s name was Egon Hedin, he had an ascetic face with an aristocratic nose, one felt like bowing to his lord until you saw his arms they looked enormous which would in a boxer
the vessel left Antwerp for Russia the journey took us through the Mediterranean Sea and since the weather was fine the deckhands wore shorts that excited him greatly, he tried to sneak up to one of them to stroke the boy’s back, this...

Sea Of Silence
there is a place where the sea is still
where the waves never speak
where the sky pulls the light away
and all that remains is quiet
a wound that refuses to heal
i stood there once
eyes closed against the salt
waiting for something to surface
but only the weight of absence
answered
you were there too
or maybe you were not
just a shadow in the space between
my breath and the earth
and i could not tell
if you were a memory
or a future
the sea didn’t care
it never cares
it moves in a...

IT WAS YOU ALL ALONG
IT
has just dawned
on me that the new
snap in my step, smile
on my face, racing heart,
and desires of fire are
not my doing or found
on a hunt.
THEY
are the results of YOU;
amazing and beautiful YOU;
no equal to YOU...never.
I
used to think it was a dream
or my runaway imagination,
or fantasy of unrealized desire;
or some other trick of my mind.
BUY
now I know it was YOU all along.
My blind eyes are wide open and
my soul is committed to an unending
adventure with YOU.

Ballerina in a Box
Tunes filled the room
Sailing through the air
In harmony with my every spin
My mind drifted with the clouds
Magenta glow shone upon my skin
As I hummed in ecstasy
Chasing the shadows away
Becoming one with music
Like a porcelain ballerina in a box
Sailing through the air
In harmony with my every spin
My mind drifted with the clouds
Magenta glow shone upon my skin
As I hummed in ecstasy
Chasing the shadows away
Becoming one with music
Like a porcelain ballerina in a box

the lay of the land (e)
The Lay of the Land
If my thoughts had wings
Or better still, had arrows and a bow
To pierce your heart
You will open your emerald eyes
As only seen in the sea of Greenland
Seek my embrace
We will be the sky and the earth
Filling the air with fog
Before we make love
Our Titanic love is too great for
Sluggish humanity to clasp
Kiss me slowly, caress me long
we will purify a putrefied world.
If my thoughts had wings

Before we make love

The Titan
The Titan
They say he is a callous narcissist, all great men in our civilizations were self-focused it is what made them hated by some and loved by others We are confronted with a person who only appears when history demands a change, who thinks the impossible can come through
People ask, is he evil or a demi-god? No, he is a man whose vision stretches into the future and beyond, while we think of what’s for lunch
The problem is he burns the candle at both ends should he burn out and disappear, he will leave us the power to think practically, but also to dream, which is...
