Poem
"Blooming" In the quietening of my days there is a dream there he whispers cutting tales with sharp teeth in my mind in he swims in calm waters at the end of a long long story You are far gone lost for past glory where future curls its fingers around your fate where there you once stood so fresh and wet in Life waiting the longest re-wind like an old tape ribbons of black viciously ripped out now slack a child long gone family films on scratchy videotape ultra sound evaporates I play it on repeat the cycle of complexity yet it is far too simple with each read to understand what was not ever flexible and that which was great the sleep of Rumpelstiltskin awakening a stranger others warn you stay away from the fire stay away from the danger In the quietening of my days there is a dream there lost love letters from the soul discovered open arms, looking upwards smiling The shark planting blooms each seed found and like a pearl sewn into the cover of a new book sensed yet still unknown I calculate all the imaginary wounds Love bombed and swooning in a flooded heart blood red rose rising razor edged and naked bit large red light shining some kind love please let it be the kindest love blooming in the gloaming where an Ocean swells inside this whirlpool where an army of sharks shed salt tears amidst their ravenous timing Moon draws you in wrapping her beams around you she is swelling around you her Ocean tide voluptuous high rising (LadyLabyrinth / 2020)
