The Mirror Dance

In mirrors’ dance, where shadows glide,
Where swinging doors did once reside,
There stands a girl, by glass embraced,
In wings of salt, her form encased.

Oh very young one

From distance vast, a figure nears,
A motionless stance, he veers,
He queries you, the mirrors sing,
In whispered echoes, they take wing,

Reflecting truths in swift ballet,
Like birds that grace the sky’s grand play,
With love’s sweet swing, they shimmer bright,
In endless flight, their hearts take flight,

Oh very young one

As dreams of salt, the girl envisions,
Mirrored in her soul’s collisions,
In Dickinson’s rhyme and spirit’s flight,
This tale of glass, in dance, takes flight.

BLUEJAY EGG

Like a bluejay egg
broken life awakens
like a first bird
praise for the ceiling
pray for one fresh
in this world

Morning opened
like first bird
pray for the chick
fresh in the world
is the love of heart

Sweet fawn below
mother gives
she obvilates her
newborn loved one

Mine is seeing
Mine is Eden
praising Life
God’s creation
of a New Day

FICTIONALS

A blank slate of paper,
At birth, no marks to see,
A story yet to be written,
What character will it be?

What narrative to drive
That actor’s soul, and make it thrive?
A setup from the start,
And conflict lurking in the wings,
But how will it play out,
And what resolution will it bring?

We, the fictional,
Take our lines from the Divine,
But the genre we choose,
Is what makes it truly shine.

For me, romance is the way,
Not this horror, please, I pray.
Let the pages turn,
And the story unfold,
Let love be the centerpiece,
And let our hearts be bold.

So let the ink flow,
And let the words take flight,
As we journey through this story,
With love as our guiding light.

The Year 15,000

(The Planet of Humans)

1.

What spirit imbue that flesh!
a love as thy mother in her best
twinkle eye too, heart of gold
the spice Melange
that mystic flair balance dew
upon the blade of orange soothe
And touch thy father’s heart, too!

2.

And thou tend to good deeds
that love and life bequeath all
a fire and tender twinkle too
thy father so joyous tears sing
and moon and bird-song along
shall forever follow you!

3.

Her lovely grace in turmoil say
and his heart too shall always beat
for you the world and all its gifts
not of gold or position in world
but that tender spot angels dance
that room which first I met you

over 5 thounsand years we have
traveled. In true freadon.

Also known as

Dune.

LOVER SPEAK TO ME

I love you not for your beauty
I do not love you for your skin
I do no love you for your lips

I love you for your mind
I love you for your heart
love you for your soul

As you walk through the night
while the moon follows mortals
the meadow lit as the loving soul
which heaven and Earth never denies
half of day between the night
is more than shades of any light
as lovers kissing within twilight.

Don’t You Forget About Me

In the quiet realm where shadows weep,
Do the dead find solace in eternal sleep?
I, a wanderer in the land of dreams,
Ponder upon life’s relentless streams.

Beside my mother, where safety lies,
Amidst the echoes of bullets that flies,
My face, a canvas of fear so deep,
Haunted by the secrets that I keep.

In the midst of chaos, my soul takes flight,
Lost in the darkness, seeking the light.
What is this existence, this dance we tread?
A gap between teeth, or a soul unfed?

Does life consist of mere worldly gains,
Or the whispers of wind, the patter of rains?
Hit me up when the monsters play,
When murderous babies and priests hold sway.

Actors on channels, their faces masks,
Burial plots leased in the shadows’ grasp.
My father prays, my sister bled,
Like Jesus, she rests, among the dead.

Ghosts, like lovers, court me near,
On this night of fright, where darkness sears.
Out of sight, my fears take flight,
Kiss me, Mama, in this endless night.

I slumber now, as the dead may do,
In the embrace of dreams, I find you.
In the silence deep, my soul is led,
Sleeping like the dead, I rest my head.

NATURE HAS TWO PEAKS

…MY  borealis lit the lip-sky! EVER!
and she walks,  her remaining
soul forever   sweet roaming.     moving like
two [opportunity] rivers chasing
the dream of me
And my mind tries when gazing upward
from the ground to the sky i saw
two peaks like a flavor [so much
so much more than creative paintings]
— it’s man.
We need our dessert before
death…yeah I possed you and hated you.
My shyness//her [va]kindness
I kissed the pink flowerLOVE
she shivered i lovely death.

A HUNDRED POEMS – LII

MY thoughts SO LARGE!

An undetermined SIZE!

ONE below the trees

as another above the skies!

THE elements shaped that which perceived —

and the rest by humanity!

with the sun in her eyes!

Passion: whither is thy heavenly gift
Beg: i doth for pastures of romance
love thee — angel followeth me too
Kindness: compassion for all thy life
Understanding: wisdom from burning fire
Heaven: thou, dream I giveth prayer to thee
Love: is thy reason for living life
and desire for love
escapes thy flesh
afire angelic wings
kissing devil’s lips
a Christ-passion
for all high and base!


I AM SAD THIS HAVINGEST

The tongue of sweet spring is your
remembrance of time : an embrace
of springtime is love and memorytime
and veserial sweet time

(the world will die/and Souls live\
the very Spirits singing in lovely
bar chords: as once lovers come
and then go but two perfectly alone
while weeping no one else alive \

breathing the beauty of a sky and
such a sun ; as how we both never knew
that no other ever breathed : so mamy
various forms of love and yes.
That pieces of falling of love as
tiny darting and floating . . .
is the quietly screaming words
saying, “I LOVE YOU.”

IF PEACE IS LARGENESS

IF peace is largeness within the many chambers

of you i should dream a world of loveness

a n d  m a n y  t e a r s  b y  j o y

to tell you the dream when smallness was

the many vapored obscured heart-tied hands

hanging upon the highest star

There is within me enough room for you

as words from distant cousins lock meaning within

a single stanza the numinous feelings are that much

nearer I — the pupil of Life and my sight

is becoming more clearer.
