Struck down powerless with astonishment
as the Brocken spectre took its shape
forming one shadow breathing out
from the misted oceans a fierce bitter wind whispers
curling cries around the mountain howling suffering
Where an odd sound echos strangely
three times striking the spine with ice trembles
Then the crunch of lightening suddenly strikes this note
darkness causes uneasy feelings
when the shield of light is blinding
to the lost yet to be found wanting
opposite the sun enormous magnified shadows
begging to be seen casting lots upon the surfaces of clouds opposite
one head crowned figure emerges surrounded by glowing halo-like rings
the formation of glory rises from within shaping destiny
Where rings of coloured light appear directly opposite the sun
when sunlight finally meets a cloud uniformly-sized
water droplets refresh the misted vision held bathed
.
When in between
the black and white,
It's hard to know
what's wrong from right.
And though they say
to trust your heart,
Compassion's eye
might skip this part.
The things in grey
can sometimes be,
The truth you need
and hard to see.
So answers sought
that lie between,
With open mind
can then be seen.

I'm not looking good
as if we could know what happiness is
from the grey area
in dream
fairness is a cancer
of the float
so stop
don't judge your dreams
because you only see them in half
or neither
the feeling of devaluation
towards myself or my own achievements
strong feelings of fear
culpability
uncertainty
frustration
guilt or annoyance
change the position of the dream
and we will see
only the trace left on the sand
when he slides his body into a free zone
talk to me, thank you
I appreciate
there was a redneck scarlet woman
who screamed blue murder
after seeing red in a blue movie
making purple passionate love in the pink
to the yellow peril who was green with envy
Struck down
powerless with astonishment
as the Brocken spectre took its shape
Forming one shadow breathing out
from the misted oceans
A fierce bitter wind whispers
curling cries around the mountain
howling suffering tunes
Where an odd sound echos strangely
three times striking the spine with ice trembles
Then the crunch of lightening suddenly strikes this note
darkness causes uneasy feelings
when the shield of light is blinding
to the lost yet to be found wanting
Opposite the sun enormous magnified shadows
begging to be seen casting lots
upon the surfaces of clouds opposite
one head crowned figure emerges
surrounded by glowing halo-like rings
the formation of glory rises
from within shaping destiny
Where rings of coloured light appear
directly opposite the sun
when sunlight finally meets a cloud
of uniformly-sized water droplets
refreshing the misted vision held bathed
The Truth of the matter
Amidst Lies getting fatter
Is that THIS will all shatter,
And one day we'll fall
We'll master Disaster
And crash that much faster
Our remains left scattered
In the Ruin of All
You came in packages
wrapped in black and white
checkered abstract
ribbon
knotted
much
too
tight.
In spaces between
all and nothing
lies my patient
heart.
