Night Moods

Night Moods Stars weep, they cry in the night sky for those who laugh in the light of day, yet, not with spirit, heart soul or eye. They see not the game they play, nor understand what laughter is about, nor can they know what laughter is all about. Dreams Some cannot see by the light of day, only in the darkness of night can one say they see all, for that is when the veil slips away to reveal all that has been blinded by what may lay before the mind’s eye in the bright light of day. This night brings This night, as so many have come before, take flight – life / night, brings nothing more than those that have been, will be born. nights waiting, harbingers of the forlorn – as I sit before this one eyed monster. For life’s many moments – the creator as we exchange glances, stare into the abyss, the windows – and share – of each other’s lifeless soul,. To learn, what ?, what is there to know !,? Easter Time’s light, dances across the crucifixion, falls upon the cross, the spaces in-between - two thousand years is where we have been - and on towards the light of resurrection. Springing out from that darkened cave, came a man who was not, yet was brave. I, and this place, in time, dance alone. Then, as before, we were on our own. Not once – by anyone – was it shown, - nor by any means we have known, - that the hearts who know and are known, took the time, the thought to care, or a fleeting moment, in which to share. Passions lost to the past - passed a long time ago The childhood of Linda B From the sickness of a father, came bricks ! From that denial by mother, came bricks ! From genetics, experienced sister, came bricks ! from the same, created brother, came bricks ! From fear, denial, burial, nothing will fix ! Walls, fences, barricades, road blocks does the trick ! The pain inflicted by the hands of father, brother, perpetrated by sister, a blind eye, turned, by mother have been the masons, laying all the bricks for this wall, walls that have created the rough ride to your fall, keeping you uptight, in fear of one and all. Searching, finding, experiencing, all seem to lead back. Throughout the years, nothing found to put you on track ! Reaching out – Touching Grappling hooks tossed to the top of this wall - catch !, -, yet, are unable to pull it down. not one brick comes lose, wall will not fall to earth, will not touch the ground. the attached rope, a possible means by which to scale. with every attempt to climb over, to allow, doth fail’ Try, as one might, to scale these walls ! Try, as one might, to knock down these barricades ! Try, as one might, to go around these road blocks ! One finds these walls to high – far too high to climb, the bricks, far to secure in their mortar to be dismantled, the barricades, of cement, cemented in time – immovable, the roadblocks stretching out into infinity, no way past. All merging, meeting, greeting with restricting rejection. Hands, thoughts, feelings protecting the soul, with a piece of cloth that tells a story, has more to say then words ever can. It prevents freedom, the motion of every man. Wilderness The bush within which I live, the wilderness of my life, - life created by the hands of men, men I know not - life created by the very hands of this man. Wilderness lies all around me, in lifeless memory, memories of a life lived in the realms of others. A life once lived ?, now but a memory of another life that overwhelms. Melanie My heartache weeps, profusely, for you Melanie !, knowing that my tears will never wash away the pain, the fears you are feeling within your growth, your understandings, your desires, your desire to be needed, appreciated, loved and your need to be. All I have to give you, is all the love that is within me Melanie, and I pray that it is able to help you through, allows you to see the roads clear, the paths far and near and is able to allow you to set your soul free and not to be waiting on life to happen, waiting for life to ring. Open the doors and, my Dear, sing ! B. J. “A ” 2 April 13th 2002
