And he, a strange, distant friend

The Absent Spark of MiraclesBy a mysterious twinkle in an all perceiving eye

Enchanted stars into their life giving
The dance conceptual
The ballet between
Principals masculine and feminine
These consorts of the...

Some madness banter of insanity
is pulling at my thoughts
spilling effulgent
in giant verbs and huge marching nouns
collecting snippets as it walks
stomping on flowers

swirls captivated
with great toed boots

Ballad
the collective hubris of our indifference to ants
We walk the earth as lords of all
only judeo-christian types of course

Her Hobby Is Collecting MenHer hobby is collecting men

To her surroundings, often hiding
Behind certainty, wearing it
Like a wickerwork shield
For protection, but she won't go
Away or...

Voices In the DarklCautious spirits test the waters of my world

Where Angels TreadThe altar showed anomaly,
an orb of light,
a foil for small realities
that I could easily forget
but for that twilight cast,
to things I touch or dream--
that spirit song sequestered
where I cannot go.
