whatever happen to the beauty of immortality?
be under no illusions
times are changing
but some things will
stay the same
but to 'feel' the seeing
of spaces amidst
epochs and ages
can leave one merely
moving defiled in the
soul
it's
unresolving'ly punctuating
when tasting survival
and intimacy become
bloviated between
feminine and masculine
masterpieces
...

Choice And The Adversary
In the sky amongst the stars or in the fields howling with wolves.
Swimming in water or flying above, real life unfolds. Humans often dream, seeking greener grass, a return to the wild... expecting to live without disease.
While a bear will eat the fish, and a spider will grab the bird. The big cat and the wolf, are but a predator.
Same as dying stars turn into black holes to swallow everything in their way, expanding another universe.
It seems everything moves on through the energy of bitter destruction. The creatures of earth feed off of each other.

Birth to Islands - snowglobes
Your eyes are in an ice storm,
baby red-raw
see underneath your glassy
shield a coral
and curious fish
sniffing tips
of fingers probing
then turn to leap, plastic sick
with wings that make you yelp
from out your bowl.
You are dancing in a hurricane,
wild ballerina
see you lose yourself
in chaotic patterns
yearning to perfect
and home in to the source
of the display of bees drunk
on the beats of their own wings.
Your soles sticky on lemonade gravel ...

Revolution Ad Infinitum
I need to get up
and let my apparent sins
boil in the morning kettle.
The snake I was afraid of as a child
has now drowned.
At the T-junction I will turn left
and heading in the other direction
let opposites-of-true pass me by
on the other side.
The edaphon* are quietly at work …
a glorious display of co-operation.
In a few months
I will put my spade into the compost-heap
gently lift out some humus
and spread it around, cultivating life.
As a closing ceremony I will...
and let my apparent sins
boil in the morning kettle.
The snake I was afraid of as a child
has now drowned.
At the T-junction I will turn left
and heading in the other direction
let opposites-of-true pass me by
on the other side.

Dear Earth
Dear Earth,
Hi there, how are you? I thought I'd drop you a line, because some of the family are a bit worried about you. They're saying that you're not too happy about the way things are going at the moment, that we might be abusing your trust? I really hope that you don't think that this is the case, because we've put in so much hard work to get where we are!
I've got a few bullet points for you -
* We own the place! (we've got the paperwork, OT & NT etc) I'm sure you remember agreeing to this? If not, consult your legal team.
* It's up to you...

So, let me take you on a sweet journey with me, let me help with your understanding that you is a beautiful woman and that you can do anything that you put...

birdsong
Are not five sparrows sold for two cents?
Yet not one of them is forgotten before God. Luke 12:6 (NASB)
wonder what little birds
say to each other
when they tweet-tweet
in treetop branches
and when they sing
their lovesongs
do they make
the lyrics rhyme
or fix their verse in time
upon the changing
metres
of the breeze
do they rehearse
war chants
for leery men
with traps and cages
and when they hurt
do their sad hearts...

Rockhollow Series: May, come in
Weather: Heavy raincloud, spitting rain only late afternoon, very little breeze, humid.
Plant of the day: White bells
Animal sighting of the day: Chaffinch
Rockhollow Series: May, come in
I saw a chaffinch today, flit from a hazel,
above the bed of the stream
to a fallen branch on the other side -
In Britain that's nothing fresh
but for 'Hollow it is.
His red and blue markings were made brighter
beneath the weighted cloud, the lack of Sun
and his head was tilted slightly as...

URGENT
You want me to believe in God
Yet pray to the Marquis de Sade
Content to be what humans be—
I pray my kids grow up wild and free.
What did nature do so wrong
That we must interrupt her song?
Like Kanye in his foolish rut
Imma let you finish, but…
Got parking lots to be laid down
Got permits to build out more town
Got money in the bank so sure
That you don’t need to worry ‘bout her—
Well Mama Nature worries ‘bout you
And there are plenty things she’ll do!
I urge you all to practice wooing
Her so she won’t end up...

I think Mother has been very patient
with us... but we're now at the end of our tether
of course...She can afford to wait...
if we wipe ourselves off of the planet
She will just adapt...as She has always done...

Rockhollow Series: Earth Day
Title: Earth Day
Twenty Three of Thirty
Unique Words: One Hundred and Six
#NaPoWriMo19
In tiredness I seem to write for the soul, her soul or mine,
yet when the Sun beats down in this aggressive display of Climate change
and as I notice cracks in the Earth before May,
my soul seems to fray.
I like to believe that in doing my part,
litter picking, planting, not using chemicals, giving wildlife a home
that I can aid, in a peaceful, solitary way
but not today, when the Earth seems more mindless rats in a concrete jungle...
