Beauty In Still
Beauty In Still
I threw a glance through the window
The moon was there, nestled in the air
Among the stars, within a misty halo
The time was calm like a flat eternity
Nothing affected its purity, its clarity
Like the moon, the sky is darkly clear
Its width reflects the void it quietly fills
The vastness in which how fast it spins
Then, i regained my seat, that hides the truth
The false space that hides any shade of proof
Where the moon is such a grandeur in heaven;
Even the mundane...
I threw a glance through the window

The vastness in which how fast it spins
Then, i regained my seat, that hides the truth
The false space that hides any shade of proof

Where is the moon
It should be full
No shadows
Yet spirits pull.
Evil that lurks
Cautious and confused
Cosmic forces
are amused.

Honeysuckle
Honeysuckle smells deeper
After June’s violent rain
Dogs bark incessantly
At echoes of themselves
Sofa sailors gaze
At reflections of themselves
After the molten sunset
Twilight bruises the sky
Then the moon’s acned face shines
Over wild and sticky fields
After June’s violent rain
Dogs bark incessantly
At echoes of themselves
Sofa sailors gaze
At reflections of themselves
After the molten sunset
Twilight bruises the sky
Then the moon’s acned face shines
Over wild and sticky fields

Mother of Bones
There it is
The moon
Up high
Suspended
For what seems like years
Before it goes down
Being swallowed
Like medication
So many moon pills
The same color of skeletons
I’ve held in the
Palm of my hand
Miniature in comparison
Resembling the river stones
Embedded in my freshwater veins
The perfect remedy
To help me sleep
And continue to spin
Towards the next day
Towards the sun
My blazing vitamin
Who I absorb daily
Warming all the
Variety of bones
I’ve been...
The moon
Up high

For what seems like years
Before it goes down

Resembling the river stones
Embedded in my freshwater veins
The perfect remedy
To help me sleep
And continue to spin
Towards the next day

Tear from the Moon
A glowing pearl
From the heart of the sky
Fell with delicacy
Along my lachrymose eyes
A tear from the moon
From the heart of the sky
Fell with delicacy
Along my lachrymose eyes
A tear from the moon

The Magic Rhyme
The faires spirit of the wise woman dance on to bring the night, casting a softly spoken spell bringing eternity to them as they dance around the heath, forrest and the bog.
The magic rhythm echoes into the universe carried on whispers of secret rhyme into the cosmos, suddenly a great spark ignites an the ancient tale unfolds, the cosmic force awaken.
Rays unimaginable burst through darkness like golden thread, brilliance and beauty cast as light is softly spread, the midnight lakes and streams of the forest shine with crystal frost, while luna...

Arisen Moon (Haiku)
You have felt that I -
the moon, is arisen,
here’s the tides!

The Peaceful Night
The moon, near but distant, full and brooding.
The mysterious glow of light that rests upon the surface of a lake,
Casting shadows on the water.
Shapes.
Tones of colour.
The whisper of a breeze, the rustle of hedges.
The moon hides behind a cloud.
All is still.
The observer walks away.
The mysterious glow of light that rests upon the surface of a lake,
Casting shadows on the water.
Shapes.
Tones of colour.
The whisper of a breeze, the rustle of hedges.
The moon hides behind a cloud.
All is still.
The observer walks away.

the future has stars in it
I see his indigo silhouette
a lonely astronaut
untethered
reaching for the man in the moon
Sometimes I wonder
if I just imagined him
treading dawn
as the electric dark
gives way to unholy sunshine
I'm learning to see
through the fire
and over the walls
but I'm numb to the inferno
that rages around us
heralding a future
we can't set right
I think he's got the right idea
my indigo astronaut
dialling off world in the hopes
the stars hold something more
for...

but I'm numb to the inferno
that rages around us

So little
Territory
Ends up
In the news,
Small enough
Acknowledged,
Despite its
Many views.
Tiny
On the map
Of worlds,
Yet infinite acclaim,
And often given
Slim attention
For such
A well known name.

pale moon
I lie awake to note
with something close to wonder
just how
the moon tonight is wafer-thin
but still has light
that’s bright enough
to silver all the sleepy mystery
that is my lover’s body.

wooooooo....
the spirits ride
they look at you
they see you
believe in them
they're with you
ride with them
don't look back
they look at you
they see you
believe in them
they're with you
ride with them
don't look back
