"The Dreams of Bedes" 

Jewels they found 
dripping like diamonds
from the overflowing viaducts 

scattered on the ground
at the feet of disbelief
barely seen 

shod lost and disobedient
counting the cost for 
unwanted inconvenience

those bridges burn now like
scarlet rubies blood read
the swords dipping

like dancers tango 
tripping machiavellian 
tomes marked requiem 

for burying
tongues caught 
between teeth, closed lips

dance ruthlessly 
through all the walls
biding their time, what is left

rustling 
the notes felt
in an unseen breeze 

opening doors
tinkling keys for all
riders on the storm 

to take their discourteous leaves
from the exterior world
to make pearls on strings

of words
recounting station 
to station 

rosaries each 
scored venerable 
for the dreams of shining bedes 

broken and restrung 
never over
just begun

music 
for 
Black Boy Roses

smiling
with the Sun

(LadyLabyrinth / 2022)

"Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Into this house, we're born
Into this world, we're thrown
Like a dog without a bone
An actor out on loan
Riders on the storm..."
