My Path to the eighth house
When the lights are dimmed, your vanity and worth the earth consumes, a reckoning preordained I face, but find solace with a sense of grace. Meditate beyond the grave, fly on more than dreams, hold the vision my forthcoming future holds a sheen. A house that is a TARDIS hidden, and deaths dark maze has not forbidden. A promised golden Narnia awaits, as I dissolve, and earthly bonds all dissipate
The treasured strands of memories are holding fast the anchors leash
Faith to hold not to relapse for deaths it's freedoms grim impact, that house awaits, the afterlife at No 8. But Holy...

Strange Fruit In The Renewal Of Sacred Celebration
Earth tone, the melanin jazz that sings throughout my veins
The protective barriers when, Come By Here My Lord provided no cooling rain
Such a blessed skin to be, beautiful to adorn, it reproduces in so many shades
From Bronze, to Honey, Brown Sugar, and the sweetest taste of marmalade
You could say I am not that dark
Most will say, we all bleed the same when given our own foundational spark
Yesteryears denied me my rights, my land, and my mule
That old Constitution creed and the three fifth...

Water And Stones
I hear the waters that murmur
In the brook where they stream
A whisper that deeply nurtures
The winged fantasy of my dreams
I see the water that winds
Unharmed between the stones
Like a smart fish without fins
Water has charm of its own
Liquid silver silk that ooze
A child's gurgle in tender age
Soft, a limpid crystal hue
Eternal flow of the tender age
Free meander of the glassy dew
Reflection of the ritual stream
The sun dots the waves with a glow ...
In the brook where they stream
A whisper that deeply nurtures
The winged fantasy of my dreams
I see the water that winds
Unharmed between the stones
Like a smart fish without fins
Water has charm of its own
Liquid silver silk that ooze
A child's gurgle in tender age
Soft, a limpid crystal hue
Eternal flow of the tender age
Free meander of the glassy dew
Reflection of the ritual stream
The sun dots the waves with a glow ...

I don't like mirrors
they don't repeat me well.

Her Way Of Wanting Us To Join In
Zayda walked to the pool.
She stripped down and smiled before diving.
She said the water's fine.

What He Saw On One Summer Night
One summer,
Princeton stepped outside for
some air and spotted twin chicks splashing
in the water until they looked at him before
Jenna smacked him on the head and got
him to come and rejoin
the party.

The Missing Link
The tree and the bird
the bee and the flower
the sun and the moon
the heat and the shower
The silence and the sound
the ear and the music
the heart and the feeling
the brain and the thinking
The wild and the wise
The Human and Nature
the wild is inborn
the wise is artificial
From the wild comes the rule
Into the wise mind instilled
While the city is the filter
The rules then, are broken
Nature's facts disfigured
all the trees became timber
the animals...
the bee and the flower
the sun and the moon
the heat and the shower
The silence and the sound
the ear and the music
the heart and the feeling
the brain and the thinking
The wild and the wise
The Human and Nature
the wild is inborn
the wise is artificial
From the wild comes the rule
Into the wise mind instilled
While the city is the filter
The rules then, are broken
Nature's facts disfigured
all the trees became timber

move like water
aquamarine waves
tremble against roaring shore
white shells shine like stars

While Two Lovers Share A Jacuzzi
Susan was caressing Jessica's body.
Then, she saw Mark using his camcorder.
That made Susan smile big.

Fluidity
Dawn, rests on grass blades, unbending
My dry dying bones lap up her gift
Mystical rise to skies, ascending
Carried by air, barely, thick on my breath
My atrocities below, leak to above
She withdraws her warmth but keeps her cool
Falling gems, she weeps from bitter love
In her wrath, I'm hailed with ice daggers
Calling me into depths of her magnetic ocean
Resting my head softly into her dark depths
Cities and their kings fall to her liquid emotion
In you, I give final breath, because I love
My dry dying bones lap up her gift
Mystical rise to skies, ascending
Carried by air, barely, thick on my breath
My atrocities below, leak to above
She withdraws her warmth but keeps her cool
Falling gems, she weeps from bitter love
In her wrath, I'm hailed with ice daggers
Calling me into depths of her magnetic ocean
Resting my head softly into her dark depths
Cities and their kings fall to her liquid emotion
In you, I give final breath, because I love

Great Day For A Cool Swim
Preston and some friends arrived at the beach house
just in time to see Juliette swimming around
in a black bikini before she heard a
voice say "Great day for a cool swim, Darling Sweetheart!"
