I hope to see you there
Gentle air fills dying lungs
Under blue skies and bitter chill
Folk tunes playing through blown out speakers
Nervousness fills aching bones
Picking lint off of an expensive sweater without breaking eye contact
How did I get here?
Years of dreaming was never enough
Restlessness and addiction kept me stuck
Until the final push from the one who promised to never let me fall
An open door to the visions that have flooded my brain since adolescence
A bigger view caused for an emotional afternoon
But who am I to...

Circling Back
Insanity is enchanting, madness, addictive.
Between the lines, the warmth of your smile is enough.
I know I am safe when serenity comes into view as a stray thought.
You are timely to recite my last rites.
I am content, grateful for that.
Comforted.
I watch from above as the words flow forth on the winds of time.
The cosmos is angelic and welcoming.
Traveling into my subconsciousness during my dreams is an adventure.
I become another living being.
I am assertive.
I am aggressive.
I’m a loud mouth.
I’m not...

behold
pinpricked momentum
a fleeting dandelion seed travels
in frequencies folding unfolding
tenderest tendrils
the carousel trembles
cobwebs dewed
musk healed these calf bones
spear cutting silence
re embers healing salvia
I lay in the wolf trap
amidst winter
witnessing moon
and life
is my lover again

Losing Myself
The only true image of me
Must surely be
The one that i see
In the mirror!
But these reflections
May not be
How others see me
Through perhaps
the median of photography
Or paintings of myself
Captured in a moment
then hung on a shelf
A clone could possibly be the same
Like a waxwork, with no name
As for changelings
or Doppelgangers
I may already be one!
In which case
Where has the original me gone?

Mirror, Or Mirage?
I discovered a portal, in my flat
And didn't quite know, what to make of that
So i clambered through it, to another dimension
I had no clothes on, thought it best to mention
It was warm, and balmy, and quite weird
Especially when my Doppelganger appeared
She slowly approached me, and said "nice tits!"
I appreciated the compliment, but worried about all other bits
Did my bum look big in this, or was i knobbly kneed
My hair was a mess, i have to concede
Well we got talking, and remembering similar things
Of things that went pong,...

High Noon

The world is burning
People are making irregular movements
And we don't care the relation between
Time is just right
Twenty steps away
He's standing still
like a delicate sculpture
Are his eyes raging fire?
I cannot see
I only know I'm in delight:
I've found my rival!
Right now
His shadow cannot catch me
His chips is also six
This is a fair duel!
Rejoice, my friend
This is a fair duel!

Thanking I'm Charlie Chann
To my alter ego whom I respect and trust
don't self-destruct and become my obituary
fading to dark drowning in Moo Goo Gai Pan
becoming a psychopathic narcissistic eggroll

Dust To Dust
The mirror
Lies perched
Behind my laptop
Face to face
With this mirror
That i rarely looked at
I placed it there
Not out of vanity
Simply because
There was nowhere else to go
And to heavy to hang
A large wooden frame
Knotted weavings
With various cut outs
Now pinned to its side
I pondered upon a picture, or painting
To cover the mirror
But a strange guilt came over me
As i would be denying the mirror
Its purpose
So ive let the dust build up
Over the years
And now, as i begin to fade ...

We have thoughts and ideas
Try to find the unknown
Searching for the answers
We leave no unturned stone
We look for the treasure
Knowledge is what we seek
A lifelong adventure
Our life filled with mystique
Looking for hidden clues
Try to solve the puzzle
Mix and matching items
The cards start to shuffle
A hand will be revealed
You either win or lose
Life is a lottery
You can not ever choose
Hope to see lady luck
As you roll to begin
Where will your pieces start
The wheel...

Fractured Light
Vibrant rays of light are
Bouncing and beaming
Reflecting off of mirrors
It shows me what I’m seeking
Imperfections glued together
Over cracks that split across
Dividing up reflections
From once whole solid glass
Shards of glass are falling
I put the pieces back together
Seeing myself in every
Little splinter of mirror
What does the story tell?
How do the shards add up?
This story is fragmented
But I will never give up
One day I will be whole again
And I’ll see my true...

mirrors
pull me in, hallucination
I see you vividly in my dreams
much more than just imagination
you give me life, you make me weep
longing, I reach for nothing tangible
sorrowed lullabies swirl around my mind
I believe I know much more than planned
you're ruined like me
you are nothing and everything
the epitome of my desire
slip through the mirror with me
the ocean is not the deepest water
there's a grave in me and I think you know
that love is not the safest harbor
I believe you know much more than planned ...
