BORN INSIDE

Born inside a bruised dirt-womb
and tasted asphalt before sweets
and fell into the fire feet first, damn
before my first baby steps too
life is trying to kill me
no matter how hard I try
spit and words don’t help much
but sure makes me feel good
death can have me —
but not today
no matter how hard it tries
death is trying to catch me
it can take the highway
because today I’m walking
walking in the flowers
beneath the sun

GOD-POKER

I stepped outside the deck of cards
an infinite pile of here and now’s
a brand which the Gods call life
and took a peek ahead the hand
that fate had prepared for me —
a shuffle here and cut and cut
and peeked again and smiled
no need to cheat —
when one’s heart the ACE

A HUNDRED POEMS – XXI

When does that end
come
let the new shed life
what left in that past
never was
only seasons do melt
between
what, when, how

PASSION SPEAK SHY

I refuse to believe that love is fleeting
only a shadow made of lust of night
My spirit has built a castle for love
and her rooms are many to fill
each a day in my life for her
and when she comes I have room
and a land so green and grand
full of brooks and trees and life
and flower beds and a vast sky
where she is I do not know yet
but I await her and heavenly love
she will bring and I shall give back —
an ounce of her is a pound of me
and my hand is a river against
her breast that she shall feel
the life of golden years through time
a water to rock and pebbles
and pebbles to grains and sand
and stream shall carry us beyond
to the other life above heaven …

A WORLD THAT LIVES

LIFE has a reason
not just to live
it’s a lesson
to make you see
that what you think
is not what you see

what in the world
are we all
thinking of?

the burden is on
those of you
who think and feel

how is the world
gonna live dear
if not by you

so moon and stars
shine on in hearts
that life has kissed

and we all shine on
and the Mother too
She awaits that moment

A world that lives
lives as one and lives
and loves nature too

LOVE IS YOU

Wet drop heavy dew
a purchase made
in nature too —
upon my leaf
I carry you
until you roll
that fall of you
beyond the cusp
of my green love
into the air
and gather life
before the final drop
upon Mother you splatter
and feed her children

Love is you — my drop
of water but magical fire
you feed all in life
my desire for you dear
is to feed my heart
and light my fire
that i may one day
fall for you too
and feed the world
as you do my lovely one

YEA-YEAH

WAY down below the belly
of the gods and souls too
i could scream of pain
but the love is more —

and the clouds bring rain
and the sun – she screams
a light of brightness
i could live forever…

praise god and Her roles
and the people who cling
love is binding and bring

a piece of soul to my life
and this life is about more
and tears and smiles – joy

i was here before your words
and even song and praise of me
and i accept your adulation’s

but my desire is for you to live
so live yea-yeah live forward
the past is a thing – but future

future is a promise that bring
a piece of your past and how…
and now is what you eat now

time and space splits the mind
and the body is a soul-cage
and the canary sings many songs

SIX FEET DEEP

when i posted my emotion
inside the stream of media
i did not wish you to die

but you took the words
and made them blades
and cut your veins girl

what she told her mother
was a ruse made in haze
and her haste did her in

girl…you are my life
but now in your death
you turn to me and cry

after all this time…
you still surprise me
a #selfie did you in

And in your life you said
that your pain will lead
to a pleasure beyond life

ah girl…now you live
a death in paradise
and pleasure six feet deep

A HUNDRED POEMS – XVIIII

I dream to life
a life of death
and wish I dreamed

of world in love…

and dream I do —

when I dream for you
and dream could be more than me
you are my dream

and a wish
that I wish to dream…

and minds and hearts
destroy and birth

gestation and genocide

go hand-in-hand

INSTANT DARKNESS

I was on the turnpike
when the sun vanished
one moment it shone
— a coronal-bride
to be and next
a vast deep darkness
whose reach greater
than the deepest oceans

Off I crawled the turnpike
as it too dangerous to drive
for even the headlights died

and now the fields I belly-hug
knees too shaky to stand
that great be my fear —

and in the distance I hear
the guttural screams of humanity
even the creatures too
