A HUNDRED POEMS IV

What this life — explain
nothing dear lover
we give and thou take
a summer breeze and leaf

that oak tree does know
solid and unmoving
seasons tease its leaf
thou eye is steadfast

i walked that path
honey sickle taste
bitter heart nonsense
and lemon smiles sun

my bird sings song
and hast cage iron
what will break wrought

my vortex of life dwell
between and beyond all
phantom dreams us love
and love dance life’s ball

A HUNDRED POEMS III

and today I slay death
it was my way
knife  heart
blade and life

what light
reveal
strength or frail
truth for a man

and the council
those pompous twelve
non-human but eager
to learn

and
Earth is a grand
battlefield petal rose
red soil and bitter torn

in dream or fear dear
lackey heart weak near
the hand grab my heart
hero save what shadow

old man or bag lady
do not stare this way
for all had is given
move along tomorrow

today the gift is given
softly   we praise Him
who always gives more
those flowers in fields

A HUDNRED POEMS (ii)

II

What dreams sweet life soul
that Earth soil so wet-dew
that
touching

tears feeling
my council doubt this dream
but
release

thee
budding light this day
such philosophy stab
thy heart

love     now
skip treacle and grail
passion fuel thou vessel
tickle-being spur now

and
truth

in heart bleed red now
and breath push you
rhythmic
lover

thou gave me

the reason in moment

spring time lips

FETUS SONG

Water break fetus breath
slap-sting learn to be
earth-life bitching be
mama gives touch-love
baby-breath upon skin
reality-here so raw
sucks-to-live-now
let me get back light

SUMMERS ARE PURPLE

AND which feather has tickled you
the one of sorrow for perceived lost
or that one which bring joy and tear
I confess that both have touched
that grand heart within that cage
— hush now, feather-heart
there be always summers each year
and many sunrises-surprises-smiles

LIFE-OCEAN

We parted beneath ancient oak
horizontal place in frozen time
the hand I held I begrudgingly gave
ignoring pain and the cry of angels
a Holy fracture within tar pit soul
that feature falling frames of time
Immortal circle we dance ignoring
what futures we hold — perchance
Sweetness and bitter moments
no tongue could clearly explain
nor words convey in human language
such ceremonial moves that life-ocean

SEASONS LIVE

AND when your heart
was an open book
you gave yourself
and love — the season
you never knew fear
and ever changing
shades of life
was your rainbow

But rain comes down
and flowers drink
the tears of broken
hearts —
live and let die
I say live and let die

The jester motions you
upon heels you sway
but the job you have
you got to do well

Seasons burn kisses
and horizons blend well
but that heart of yours
will live and let die

live and let die
live and let die

WHAT THE HEART NEEDS

I walk around and down the walk
just another day minding business
and I can hear the people saying
nothing matters but what’s in heart
such a thing needed is more song
about love and life and smiles too
And what does the man say…
listen to what they all sing
It’s what the heart needs
and it needs…LA LA LA TA DA LA LA
and the flowers twirl float soda
and sherbet paints Mona Lisa
and she is singing LA LA LA TA DA LA LA
it’s what the heart needs yes it does

NEW ORLEANS

New Orleans I return
for just a moment
to kiss the witch I know
and drink and eat blood
A most mysitcal place
and most enlightened
spot for me to frolic
Five days from now
Prepare yor proper
I come warlock fashion

GALLANT BALL

That slipper from a night
I found upon my doorstep
So elegant thou foot be
That I should die to know
the rest of you jewel-eye
Mystery woman of night
I fall to deep dreams
and die each heart-beat
Come to me woman
there within your garden
eternally I shall always wait
