I AM UNRELIABLE

Ah, those wing-tip shoes

a hipster attitude to boot

an unreliable man-animal too

I walk the footsteps you choose

dinosaurs walked them too

but a real man — fragile yes

I am unreliable but undeniable

I am a whisper upon your heart

a feather-tickle on your soul

take-me-break-me-make-me baby

I am here for you and only you

and the mighty dinosaurs

will finally rest this day

SOOTHES SOULS

TIME only abides those souls
who try to keep hell below
baby footsteps walk above
and clouds float and taste
a lick of love and passion
no hell or war to imagine
and society will follow
waiting for a voice we say
but our spirits sing today
ocean shells speak the name
it’s easy to hear just try
not a human word but more
it’s love without a name

CELESTIAL POLYGAMY

My heart aches — fossil time
a secret kept close —
beneath breastbone
no macabre dear
easy one this day
but a fact parlayed
in truth today
i am crushed
in realization now
that not one but two women dead
who passed a long ago — past time
that my heart finds deep love
who wishes to know i ask!?
and for what reason compels you
oh! Dickinson and Browning
is polygamy  accepted in heaven?
only cupid knows yet…

THE TRUE TEST

THE test of life —
not one of salvation
but that nature
allow us to remain
upon her paradise

THE GRAND SECRET

MY confession to mortals
that I do love death
it has a tender touch
to never hurt beyond
that fire of separation
It only asks a piece
of life’s fire to move
beyond your soul today
That grand secret spilled
we all die day-to-day
and born between moments

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 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

A HUDNRED POEMS (I)

I

into that fire so brief
Death:
an organ untuned
Spring, the last

we spoke tear;
and gave console
eternal words
not from fear

you beauty cry
my resolve strong
an arm upon heart
cascade tears girl

(does she know) that
love and life demand
joy, fear, life, love
her dress dipped blood

(so long dream here come life)

WHALE MOONLIGHT

Where that ocean screams
and her wave licks light
between promise and realm
sailors scream tomorrows
beneath that watery dream
baritone whale sing sweets
mermaids swim toward seam
A whale tooth bites you
and barracuda needles zone
flotsam drinks too foamy
jetsam dreams sand pebble
and salty eyes crying
sand crust skin itching
that heart beating waves
sperm whale moonlight swell

LET WISDOM SHINE

I watched the souls depart today
and a gray sky cried out loud
“what you give to me I take”
and I said let it be this day

You take the low fruit my love
but all life is above — up there
climb in front of me and higher
and eat the fruit of love dear

What is this fruit of life
if love is not in the mix
let wisdom shine for all
and darkness is turned light

And what you give to me
I take and your heart too
and the world does agree
let wisdom shine for all

Let wisdom shine
across the world
and let it today
and forever more
