split schizoid mission 

Lifting the mind 
like a sword 
counting poets 
losing self in 
unsettled love
and mysteries
plucked off the shelf 
all the Berlin walls
come tumbling down
words like dice
shaken and thrown
the electric 
black dogs barking 
call in their ebony crows
wings wind their words
shocking the lonely
on repeat fix 
mirrored stories
touched for a while
fingers crack the muse 
like an egg 
over easy 
sticking to your 
mind, acrid like 
burnt lemon rind
the way you peel 
an orange each 
piece a fractured 
story, you swallow
or a never ending tail
cacheing cold sharp diamonds 
in Her wake serpentine
on the way home 
ghosted ghostly
bent on another 
split schizoid mission 
out in the cold
barefeet dance
the jig again over 
burning coals 
collaborating
the others
in the mind

(LadyLabyrinth / 2022)

"The woman 
was given the two wings 
of the great eagle, 
so that she could fly 
from the serpent 
into the wilderness, 
to her place 
where she is nourished 
for a time, 
and times, 
and half a time."

"I come like the blind 
feeling for shelves,
feeling for wood 
as hard as an apple,
fingering the pen lightly, 
my blade.


With this pen 
I take in hand my selves
and with these dead disciples 
I will grapple.
Though rain curses the window
let the poem be made."
