MONSTER

I WOKE you from your slumber
not knowing the animal you were
and you ate me — heart and soul
Your bites made me cry

I dove like a feather
against a hurrican sky
you were busy — so busy
tasting my spirit and soul

You were a monster
living in my heart
just a monster
doing your part…

I want to have control
give me the reins of life
I just want to move on…

I want to start over
Yeah — but I realize
there’s nothing left of me

You were a monster
living in my heart
just a monster
doing your part…

I’m half of what I use to be
just a pie in the sky
a slice of a feather
floating from hell to heaven

I’m a broken record
nothing more than a skip
across the stylus of love

You were a monster
living in my heart
just a monster
doing your part…

I want to have control
but my head is in my heart
nothing good comes from this
so I cry and laugh all the same

WHEN THUNDER GREETS

WHEN thunder greets
a tender thee
shaken bolt
tremble-flee

Lovely one – tears
river-sing flows
carries tender-be

Woe-the softly fragile
soul-dew upon me drip
enclose your pedals
within my greater-see

GHOST IN YOUR ARMS

UPON empty midnight streets
a washed in silver night rains
I carried your ghost in arms

Not once did you say —
or breath upon my skin
your ghost declines such pleasure

And on that cobblestone night
clickety-clack of horsemen
I saw your shadow in the park

Frozen-stare in congealed time
then in action I ran toward you
there by the grand tree of oak

Moonbeam drops through pale skin
opal hair distant stare
ruby lips love-drench gems

Away the world fell
cascade-passion drowned
eddies swirl-lust despair

You are the ghost
within my arms
moon-leaves fall
sparkle-night burn
one body–two hearts

I carry you today
— tomorrow-eternally
one body
— two hearts

THE SUN CAN STAY

WHICH way to Summersville
where the sun never stops aglow
wish-may I could go — all day
and bask in summer glow

You say the fire follows
Me muse-way what I love about you
Fire starter kindling my heart
Lets stay in Summersville till May

And the sun burns its tales
and spreads its love across the world
And the sun yearns for its lovers
and dreads the stuff of broken hearts

And the sun can stay
and the fun inside
remains all our lives

And the sun can stay
and the months can fly
but our love is here to stay

:::::


WE — LIKE TREES

WE like trees sway
in the winds of life
Always shading
our lover beneath
our firm branches
Deeply rooted
— standing firm
The sturdy oak
— immovable
Come picnic
beneath my shade
Where the grass
Is lush and cool
Kiss me my dear
Embrace my passion
Water my soil
With joy-tear

UNE LARME [A TEAR]

UNE LARME – douce libération
froide ou chaude
coupe la corde
de l’amour ou la vie

[A TEAR — sweet release
cold or hot
cuts the chord
of love or life]

Telle est la vie
aimer davantage – que la vie
et chérir toute vie

[Such is life
love more — than life
and cherish all life]

Un tel amour que la nôtre
coupe la corde
de la vie éternelle

[Such love as ours
cuts the chord
of life eternally]

La larme si doucement
puits sous le coeur
libérer nos âmes dans la vie

[The tear so softly
sinks beneath the heart
release our souls in life]

Apaiser la déchirure – peur
dément la vérité
l’amour est plus fort que tous

[Soothe the tear — fear
belies the truth
love be stronger than them all]

I’M SO CUPID

SEEING you and him in a wish
I shall not pass by this night
but cast an arrow across your hearts
spark the light of love — your souls
light breaks — daybreak loves you most
a new day of love for you both
and I sling my arrows your way

All I want is to give love
and love is all I can give
and all is the air I need
to breath the love into you

Tomorrow comes and many other days
gracefully taking time in stride
and loving your time eternally
and all you want is what I gave
and give I give each and every day

I am so cupid — loving you all
nothing greater than giving my all
farming a soil rich in lust and love
nothing better than to give my all

Tomorrow I bring
another lover
to their love
its all I can do
to give to you

WHAT TRUTH DOES SOOTHE YOUR HEART

WHAT truth does soothe your heart
blindly believing just the words
or that fire within the heart that burns
forging from grace a sensuous smile
great winds that carry it toward you
befitting the Queen you are so quaintly
Royalty in blood and spirit — ethereal
my sword at your beckoned call —
I slay the demons that climb your wall
and quench the thirst of your gentle throat
Gently I stroke the mane of silky hair
and fall do I into that grand land of lush
plushing thrusting bewilderingly rushing
across the field of yet another battle
— to conquer your love and heart

:::::


BE-TENDERLY

BE-TENDERLY sweet-kissy
playful nymph
catching fire upon
my surface-lips
warm potion-love
drips hot
barely control-shivers
tingly in all spots
abate your spell
save you burn the lot
pray-tell go gently
such love explodes
my life-will bends
to each gust of wind
that carries your lust
Go gently!  
It is all too much!

MYSTICISM

WHEREBY it may be declared
that mysticism is union
or absorption into that Diety
of knowledge barred
by the intellect…

I do contemplate
nay — surrender
that my character-soul
dreamy thunder-confusion
understands — and knows

The ultimate reality
is more than mere words
practised by unknowns
incomprehensible to minds
but deeply known

Feelings, intuition
beneath the bedsheets
of mistress-whole-mindness
