Dance Upon Thy Sweet Gravesweet death

not afraid
to
dance
upon
thy sweet grave
while

a mean red fiddle
kindle the fire with flame

dance
upon
thy sweet grave...

WAITING FOR THE MUSIC TO PLAYWAITING FOR THE MUSIC TO PLAY*

she’s poised on her tiny stage
waiting for the music to play
she wears a pink leotard and white satin tutu bordered with lace
waiting for the music to play
she stands en pointe in perfect form
waiting for the music to play
she is perfectly still on her shapely, porcelain legs
waiting for the music to...

Waiting in The Lion Dance Chinese Take Away
I sit on a straight back
red vinyl chair
in a Chinese Take Away
waiting for my beef
and black bean sauce,
pork chow mein and a serving
of special fried rice - hear
from behind a beaded rainbow
coloured curtain the sizzle
and spit of hot oil, the constant
sound of a ladle scraping
the sides of a wok,...

In the silent depths of the night, where shadows dance in secretIn the silent depths of the night, where shadows dance in secret,
I wove my fears with threads of stars, into a labyrinth of the soul.
I withdrew when the light began to shine, when dreams took flight,
Fleeing from the fear as old as time, an ancestral echo whispering constantly.
Silent steps on unknown paths, I navigated through...

In the depths of silence, where shadows dance in circlesIn the depths of silence, where shadows dance in circles,
A veil of illusions settles over lost thoughts,
Philosophers wander on misty paths, seeking truth,
Yet in the abyss of their minds, the phantoms of their vanity hide.
Through labyrinths of melted wax, they weave words of smoke,
In their temples of thoughts, they raise walls of self-deception,
For each knows...

In the deep silence of the night, where shadows dance in the abyssIn the deep silence of the night, where shadows dance in the abyss,
I wonder if I tread again the path that once tore me apart,
The wounds of time hide beneath the skin, memories that seem extinguished,
Yet their blood awakens when oblivion becomes a sweet deception.
How to endure the storm pouring from my troubled soul,
When hidden...

BALLET OF WORDSBALLET OF WORDS
Thoughts pirouette light,
twirl on the blank screen of night,
a ballet of words.
Ink swirls with a dancer's grace,
a grand jeté through the stars.
Ink flows like soft rain,
her verses spin on the breeze,
gentle, yet profound.
Spirit spills onto the page,
a pas de deux with her soul.
This poem was written for and published at Writer' Monk's weekly...

In the depth of silence, where shadows dance their eternal ritualIn the depth of silence, where shadows dance their eternal ritual,
A song of the heart is born, a call piercing the veil of forgetfulness,
There where the soul travels through abysses of light and dream,
Seeking meaning in the chaos of stars that unravel into memories.
The river of thoughts flows incessantly, whispering tales from foggy times,
Where ancient...
