Pebbling Pilgrimage
un
Washing in batik skies
Tidal belly scrapes over shingle
Cobalt swimmings turn blue
Shades of arc(h)ed existence.
Fluting along whale motorway,
Crashing roll, strangled berceuse,
Collapsing lungs of caved yearnings
Since all hearts were soaked in daesin oil.
From the beginning forebears
were diving for pearls.
dau
On wet sand my bow breaks
Collecting pebbles in bistre bucket;
Moving crab-like, soft sho(r)e shuffle,
The beads chime as Shakti bracelets
Swinging from...

Stitched together
It seems I'm always falling apart
Thrown across the landscape
I've thrown myself on another landmine
Broke myself apart for another bleeding heart
Looking frantically for my needle and thread
So that I might pull my self together again
Stitched together always with good intentions
And with self depreciation and self hatred
With bleeding parts and broken hands
With busted fingers I grip that needle
And thread that finely wrapped twine
Of love and hate of mental health and persistence
I weep as I crawl for those pieces I've lost ...
Thrown across the landscape
I've thrown myself on another landmine
Broke myself apart for another bleeding heart
Looking frantically for my needle and thread
So that I might pull my self together again
Stitched together always with good intentions
And with self depreciation and self hatred
With bleeding parts and broken hands
With busted fingers I grip that needle
And thread that finely wrapped twine
Of love and hate of mental health and persistence
I weep as I crawl for those pieces I've lost ...

How quickly
laughing hysterically
can become
crying uncontrollably

A Sign
A dream came to me last night,
Of a butterfly in flight,
Upon a finger, on my outstretched hand,
It did land.
It sniffed my finger with it's antenna, and then,
Almost licked my finger with it's proboscis, when,
I awoke from said dream,
Before forgetting, after wondering and beginning to understand what it might mean...
I've always known I've loved butterflies,
But now even more so, for they give me butterflies,
For they link to you,
And the reason for your career choice, so sweet and true.
The role...

The Friendship Train (or Until Next Year)
Pushing up my glasses,
Riding the train to the State Fair of Texas!
Us three best friends,
Friends until time ends.
At the state fair,
Late at night, wind through our hair,
Fingers looped through each backpack loop,
In our little, glowing, group.
Glowing with fun and laughter,
With friendship and wonder,
Full of cotton candy and root beer,
Knowing the end of the night is near.
We've walked and talked,
At crystals and jewelry we've gawked,
On this friendship train of pure joy,
I wish every day, and...

Don't Look Back
When one door closes, another opens; but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us." - A. Bell
The water looks inviting
the churning just for me
slip off in to the magic
of new found possibility
no held back hesitation
the lilacs are in full bloom
candles brighten up the darkness
listen,
there's singing in the afternoon
yesterday laid down in the thistle
loneliness settled in there too
whispers,
calling to the future ...
The water looks inviting

loneliness settled in there too
whispers,
calling to the future ...

Anticipation
Tomorrow is just a faint shadow not yet here
A lingering taste
Yesterday, moments never to come again
Today a moment never to come again
So let us share this day
Tomorrow is just a faint shadow not yet here
A lingering taste
Yesterday, moments never to come again
Today a moment never to come again
So let us share this day

A MENDED HEART ONCE BROKEN
As with all things in life we have to sometimes even if we don't think its important or necessary for us to have to examine the true depth of our heart and soul, for we have to stop interpreting what something is suppose to mean when spoken with words, for we must ask thyself what do they really mean as we pay more close attention to someones actions instead of there words.

and you tried burning both ends of the candle
i covered your face in cum u started lickin
told me u were in love but i knew the clock was...

A Reincarnation Through Poetry
I cannot grow and will not die,
a grain outside the hourglass.
Too many tears behind the why.
A flower lost in taller grass,
though roots are deeper than the sea.
They only see a lower class.
I seek the truth, my destiny.
To offer love, and not deceive.
Finding myself through poetry.
A muse will gift what I receive.
This guide which leads me to the light.
You gave me something to believe.
My words will shine forever bright,
as any star within the night.
a grain outside the hourglass.
Too many tears behind the why.
A flower lost in taller grass,
though roots are deeper than the sea.
They only see a lower class.
I seek the truth, my destiny.
To offer love, and not deceive.
Finding myself through poetry.
A muse will gift what I receive.
This guide which leads me to the light.
You gave me something to believe.
My words will shine forever bright,
as any star within the night.

You
A cradling sensation. I feel it deep within my chest. Delicate. Surrounding me like a warm blanket. Enveloping my soul. Featherlight, your kisses on my hands bring the sensation of fluttering wings coursing through my veins. Your eyes, staring into mine, make the world fall away. It's just us. My heartbeat thrumming in my ears. I can't feel my feet and my mind is dizzy. You move closer and I feel like I could fall. Your hands on my arms pull me into you. There is no gravity. I am yours, a part of you. Your lips on mine shift the earth beneath my feet. I collapse against you. You pull away,...

Money spider
That aracnid. its just plain brown
But luck will fall where it drops down
I am so deprived of Wonga
Like dry ice it dissapeared and its a goner
Alight on me from any dark corner
My empty pockets so to honour
Left your web to stretch your legs
Let me be your landing pad
My luck to spin in silken threads
Its nurture was in vaults of banks
The interest to donate, one thinks !
So to distribute at its whims
A small windfall from Brinks-Mat
Perched on spindles dressed with hair
Its speed so fast, are you prepared ?
Screams...
But luck will fall where it drops down

Left your web to stretch your legs

My luck to spin in silken threads
Its nurture was in vaults of banks
The interest to donate, one thinks !
So to distribute at its whims
A small windfall from Brinks-Mat
Perched on spindles dressed with hair
