It was a dark and stormy night.
Outside the clouds hid pale moon's light.
The wind howled wild around the eaves,
Blowing loose the last Fall leaves.

The rain...

Burning Lights
lighthouses; beam dreams asleep, awake, between
weighted muses surface from jade pool depths
breathe gasps of fresh love, beautiful, dark
what’s born of dark often comes to light

One world 
fell into unlit hues 
black swallows 
black dogs their consort
murderous their crows
black wings of darkest blue

dark knight,
their oceans
locked in 
another's,
lost eternally,

Cave of Nothingness
Alone- wandering in Earth’s bowels-
Nighted caves heave and bellow 
clammy, cold sighs.

Within their antediluvian cores-
I seek the Solace of Despair.

Murky phantoms enchant disturbed minds

Premium Member Gospels
"Gospels"

 

Gospels are lost on a god
words are never hidden
under rocks 
unturned stones
for the hiding

Poets caress swords
a legend firm in their hearts
undrawn they hold it...

Premium Member Autumn's Princess, Winter's Queen
Clothed in robes of shining light,
That billow in the wind,
She flies across be-nighted skies,
From even to night's end.

Sometimes silver, blue or gold,
Sometimes rainbow hues,
Always glorious...

upon an earth filled with darkened blight
Fleeting shadows stir upon the night kills
as evil comfort...

Premium Member Owls and Falcons
Like wise bicameral nighted owls
we evolve co-challenges with unfolding flight-strong falcons.

Now we are co-arising
to fly above and through past dominating pain,
to fly below reductive reverse...

Premium Member Meeting V Encounter
Our Sharing Circle begins
rejoining our universal values
within this sacred listening
unitarian space

For compassionate,
and most certainly nonviolent,
communication.

We each pause
for at least one silent great breath
ToGathering

Before vulnerable check-in

There are many secrets tucked
Carefully away at the North Pole;
Santa hides them on purpose, so 
You’ll never find them.

Things like the special camera 
He uses...

when November rends our sky

A clarity of that which is bane to light
A broken mirror in the night where ravens take flight
A cloaked shadow over...

Some thing is making
me crazy
thought it wouldn't fade...

awakened from a sleep so deep
what I see gives me such fright
 
The weapons aimed at mankind
