On a Timeless Wavelength
Whatever gets you through the day
or night
The magic in music can lift your spirits
and mood
There’s something about a rhythm
and rhyme
When the groove is sure to improve
your attitude
Your body automatically moves
to the beat
As a happy heart synchs in
with the song
For those few minutes all is right
and free
But the positive effect can last
all day long
We can get lost in those happy
little moments
The ones that enliven and
soothe the soul
It...

Scented Mahogany
She sifts between
banister and stairs
in nudity she wears
a long grey coat
like cataracts over a fall
in shadows of my mind
across the mahogany
scented with her breath
banister and stairs

like cataracts over a fall

Voice soft echoes lingers long
Kisses warm and long remembered
Sweet times spent with you

chance encounter on a weird 3rd Friday of the 10th month in the 61st year of my life
out shopping
ran into an old
friend
lost track of
the years
( life happens)
"How long has
it been?"
"Jesus!
That long?"
we began
to laugh,
because we were
both still
alive
ran into an old
friend
lost track of
the years
( life happens)
"How long has
it been?"
"Jesus!
That long?"
we began
to laugh,
because we were
both still
alive

Lessons from a seagull
sun-sequined harbour
shifting with the wind
excessive brightness
turns my gaze upwards,
where a class of studious seagulls
practice Jonathan Livingston’s circles and dives
against a backdrop of baby blue…
…it takes me back
to my grandparents’ house…
Entering into the basement,
(oh, that smell of cool cement floor!)
Up creaky stairs to the kitchen
with its blueberry muffin warmth
and those ugly stained-glass window trinkets
that I made when I was eight, embarrassingly displayed.
Then finally to the favourite...

..unwanted learning lessons..
what if you didn't know till you know
but then it was too late
and now there's no turning back
..consequnces..
but then it was too late
and now there's no turning back
..consequnces..

Where Memories Lie
Left,right,left,right.
Glued to my feet with blood,
Glued to my mind like cold ol time frozen to a wall.
Left,right,left,right.
Fuck the pain,
Fuck these frames.
Left,right,left,right.
Prey or pray,
Play or pass!
Left,right,left,right.
To live,
To fade.
Left,right,left,right.
Dog and dodge,
Die or fly.
Where memories lie!

Lost Horizons
What's left to say of what remains
As I sit here on the other side of my heart ignored
And you keep the peace of the crypt
I wear the bloodstains of another's war
Breaking from the quotes of another's script
I won't play this role anymore
When love undone proves this love is counterfeit
And who am I to call you out
When we're one in the same kind of hypocrite
Back and forth and in between
I think of what was and I tell myself that I'm over it
Till I'm provoked again and reminded
Beaten up by these thoughts, I take a hit ...
As I sit here on the other side of my heart ignored
And you keep the peace of the crypt
I wear the bloodstains of another's war
Breaking from the quotes of another's script
I won't play this role anymore
When love undone proves this love is counterfeit
And who am I to call you out
When we're one in the same kind of hypocrite
Back and forth and in between
I think of what was and I tell myself that I'm over it
Till I'm provoked again and reminded
Beaten up by these thoughts, I take a hit ...

HUGGING
The value of human contact
Has increased
To the point of time travel
I am transported
To that moment
When you were maybe three years old
Nik had just arrived
You gave them the kind of hug
That hugging gurus give
The kind that make you
Melt and cry and that’s just
What Nik did
And that is what I want
To do every damn time
For the rest of my life
Has increased
To the point of time travel
I am transported
To that moment
When you were maybe three years old
Nik had just arrived
You gave them the kind of hug
That hugging gurus give
The kind that make you
Melt and cry and that’s just
What Nik did
And that is what I want
To do every damn time
For the rest of my life

As If to Fly
Here, in the Chronos grand town square
The immense towers overlook the city
Many of the watch makers and timekeepers
Go about their way keeping plaza pretty
I saw my father there working in the square
Helping build the hands that mark time
He tapped his hat, winked at me and smiled
Then continued working under a sign
Every visitor’s eyes looked up to the skies
Admiring the skyscrapers perfectly created
As escalators like Jacob’s ladder gave rise
To something everyone there awaited
“There” my father said pointing...

Every visitor’s eyes looked up to the skies
Admiring the skyscrapers perfectly created

A Box Of Childhood Magic, And Memories
Before me lay a gilted silver box
With an engraving of a tiny red fox
And within this box, lay five others
Memories of childhood, and my mother
There was a small baby tooth
And a wish for the honest truth
A tiny little cuddly ted
And curiously lay a broken dolls head
Lastly lay a secret dream
Of a world, of strawberries, and cream
by Jemia

Homesick
Skydiving cats with umbrellas on dots
wouldn't agree with your humble conclusion;
the witch is silently crying, the knots,
she wants to cause some confusion....
I love it when karma hits...
me, not the others - to be clear,
maybe finally my wits
will come together, shall I hear
the message of the Universe
to follow the path of the sublime;
oh but what will happen to her curse
when she has to face The Time?
I am not sure how karma unfolds
its ways and how it justice brings,
I shall not think,...
