Aquarius Gypsy
Need to take a dive
Into a past life
So I'm taking a swim with
the Aquarius Gypsy
So she can unlock her
Crystal water ball
Part the sea of me
Peer into the water sides
Of ripples and laps
Past mistakes made
Scribbled on my
Endless water wall
Help me avoid the drown
Because I'm feeling lost
Inside my thoughts
Need a fast forward
My future's mystery
So I'm sitting down with
The Aquarius Gypsy
Take my hand with your
Painted garnet fingertips
Feel the letters of my ...

Prowling predator

The Paisley River - and other poems of 2022
The Paisley River
The sun comes down to dance on the river
Its colours attract a band of nude bathers
Looking to wash the dirt
From their sweating sun-browned bodies
The river doesn’t discriminate
Like the righteous dead
Paisley currents spin and swirl
All the way from the Persian sand
Across the seas to California
They wanted to get closer to the gods
Before the sun falls behind the hills
The Leaves that fall and Grow back again
Do not sink when your sunshine fades
The joy you felt...
The sun comes down to dance on the river
Its colours attract a band of nude bathers
Looking to wash the dirt
From their sweating sun-browned bodies
The river doesn’t discriminate
Like the righteous dead
Paisley currents spin and swirl
All the way from the Persian sand
Across the seas to California
They wanted to get closer to the gods
Before the sun falls behind the hills
The Leaves that fall and Grow back again
Do not sink when your sunshine fades
The joy you felt...

HERE
Beauty in the sky
the feel of the earth
love of the ocean
together we are
together we can
feel the right
feel the good
Beauty in you
Beauty in me
Beauty in us
we,you,me
it's all here
right now
today
the feel of the earth
love of the ocean
together we are
together we can
feel the right
feel the good
Beauty in you
Beauty in me
Beauty in us
we,you,me
it's all here

water's life and feels alive
Waves on the rocks a' crashing
In it human feet go splashing
And elsewhere in the swollen river
'gator tails go thrashing
Water may be stagnant
or it may be thus moving
Sometimes softly dripping
at times forcefully gushing
In brooks babbling
In streams gurgling
In springs bubbling
In rivers running
From faucets freely flowing
or from pipes coercingly spurting
At times noisily sloshing
But in lakes musically rippling
In it diving and wading
In it refreshing bathing
Or...
In it human feet go splashing
And elsewhere in the swollen river
'gator tails go thrashing
Water may be stagnant
or it may be thus moving
Sometimes softly dripping
at times forcefully gushing
In brooks babbling
In streams gurgling
In springs bubbling
In rivers running
From faucets freely flowing
or from pipes coercingly spurting
At times noisily sloshing
But in lakes musically rippling
In it diving and wading
In it refreshing bathing

Hymn to Water
They were windsurfing on the lake today.
Storm Kathleen was rolling in after all
and so I watched them on a jetty
skim the waves with all the grace
of Bambi on ice.
The sports club owns that one—
charges exorbitant fees to dive
as well as insisting on wet-suits
and tow-floats and lifeguards
and other shit sucking the life
from wild experiences.
I don’t swim there.
I refuse to be sanitised
and maybe as forty looms
I carry with me the spirit
of my anarchic era
...

Water, A Paradox
Water, pure but refreshing,
Simple but lifesaving.
Water tastes of nothing,
Yet has a unique taste of its own.
Water costs nothing,
Yet remains out of reach to many.
Water, the plainest drink of all,
Yet the most satisfying.
Water.
Simple but lifesaving.
Water tastes of nothing,
Yet has a unique taste of its own.
Water costs nothing,
Yet remains out of reach to many.
Water, the plainest drink of all,
Yet the most satisfying.
Water.

Water
Water is the fluid that moves everything in our bodies, including our neural pathways.
(Well, for neural pathways, it is more like the medium for electricity, but still drink water for thought and movement.)

Sami Song
Hear the tale of the heart
that’s pure as the falling snow
there in the north the light
there the pale light glow
sing me a song to a passage
of a time when the shaman sing
and the eagles reply
and brother wolves howl
call the warriors of old
once more a dance
of victory on snowy shore
north of the wind
joik me a song of the falling rain
of reindeer in the wild
remember them who live before
time was counted in its ticking
let the children remember
the time of the Sami
when they...

Two Sides to Every Story
Two Sides to Every Story
Parallax
Lies between
The universe
Of one's own self
And another's
Own uniqueness.
Yet,
Who are we
To see divides
Between
What sweets
Are sweetness?
Can we really
Vilify
The curse
Of being
Same,
Or is there
Something
Broken now
That makes
Our visions
Lame?
I see into
The depth
Of you
And show you
Just as much,
Though not
A word
Reveals
Itself
Quite like
