Long Enchanter Poems

“Words We Cannot Escape”

Words we can no longer speak

we tap dance over keys 
bruised blackly numb
Winter palette in hand 
Autumn now gone 

across white-washed notes fixated on stark enclosed walls 
the scent of old Lavender...

Canadian Ocean Gate


O beauteous land of mirth and Glee! 
O land of falls and seas and lakes!
Which shadows row in horrid nights
Which sorrow in Thee circulate
O start of mystic Nile gate
In which Thy goddess contemplates

(A lone voice whispers by candlelight)

In a dark dream, 
Every night

In The Great In-Between, 
Whenever I dream
It's always the same

I hear you scream

"I'm here"
In your soft pulsating voice

Just hidden unseen
Not wanting to be seen

Then right...

SCOTLAND

Very big sign on highway A1   going southways    
Out of Scotland into England,  
Painted with thistles, tartans, bagpipes,  says
“Haste ye back to bonnie Scotland”.
The  other side of...

The rolling hill leads to the castle wall
The fresh air and beauty of the landscape brings ache to your soul
The wall leads past the meadow to mountainous pass
Before the traveler there is sea of grass

The gray bearded wizard in its night blue cloak,
two ravens and a wolf are his recognition flock.
He has the ability to shape shift from the dead,
into animals speaking the language of same is said.

Horse


Sixteen point three hands high sparkled with sparkles
with a sparkling bay colour covering his coat
shimmering in even the darkest of the darkles
every part of him had a shimmering mote
a white mane that shines with shinning...

From Maidum staired beginning
Walk me north to Cairo
But keep your eyes on the pole star
The moon meanders like a whore
From year to year waxing bright
From bed to bed in spans of light
Her cycles wane in...

with unseen bloody fingers she sings a melody but with
purely visual aesthetic and woos even the strictest stoic
& with subtle soft petal bells hanging,
now 2 years old, standing nearly 8 feet tall

To the closest call she responds with her resilient wolf’s howl.
Understanding and realizing the hook for what it is.
An Icarus full of cockiness and bold flair
daring her to draw closer to the sun.

He casts his...

Who can view me behind the fence ferrous! 
Those infiltrating eyes bear me desirous! 
Unveiling what was previously hidden. 
Keeping this same watcher has striven.
 
I figure you should say, "What's in plain view!"

I’m a cleverly cloaked demon, seraph skinned.
You’re my seductress with your songs luring me in. 
I’m beautifully scarred and vainly sinned;
Disguised enchanter, deceiver, My heroine. 
Bewitched, entranced, taken to another dimension.  
 
I’m a...

The semi dessert place of the beaten track,
a little oasis of orchards in the dirt cul de sac.
Where no one can find that man anymore,
stone walls full of herbs in bloom adore.
Walk through overgrown Granadilla,

Tears, like raindrops they fall
and I, can't control them at all
I, can't help it or stall
these emotions that call
 
deep, inside of my soul
these, emotions control
feeling, the heart that you stole
dig me, deeper into this...

In Marked Territory

Midnight tightly clasps the darkness,
Like a wounded heart,
In between topaz edges of twilight
 And pastels of first light.

Jealous of its cosmos
Shoos away the master of the...

I am here to catch your words before they die.
Reciprocating and recycling emotions
crawling, without fuss toward my heart's chamber.
Locked, without comotion, for the remainder of time.

You are my light borrower. You wear the cast-off
from the...

SECRETS IN MY PAST
LONG OVER ME, OUTLAST
TRUE I GIVE WITHOUT TAKING
TAKING FROM ANYONE SHAKING
FROM THE EARTHQUAKE 
LIFE'S LIES I FORSAKE
TO IGNORE BLISS
BECOMING MERE MIST
MAGIC TRICKS UPON MY DEATH
REASSURING YOUR FAITH
THE CANOE ROWS AWAY
TO THE FLIPPED...

Bereft of the poetry of his soul
The knight took refuge in the house of death
Into darkness he went with his mind crushed
Wandering lust gone and with his own trust.

The enchanter gone
And disenchantment entered
And the land...

I sit, listening to the whisper in my breath,
shaping my expressions is safer than meth.
A voice among others, I am poet progenitor.
Do you see what I have wrought?
Heavens to metaphor!

As originator and instigator, I wordsmith...

Like dark chocolate,
She is my favorite.
A redefined taste of perfection and originality,
An embodiment of beauty,
Not in some quantity,
But with endowed with plenty and quality.

Enchanter with a pleasant oozing odor,
Giving her epicures an...

Have you ever looked into the eyes of madness
Someone who brings only sadness
Seen into the eyes of someone with no conscience
They are usually obnoxious

A person with madness in their eyes
Live their lives in disguise
In their...

There was once a time
When magic was truly real
And he had a force
A large legion of black cats
They followed by his side

They licked their black paws
Desired to be with him
They loved his powers
For he was...

Sometimes superstition mates with
scare in the wilderness of the
subconscious mind – some
apparition will be 
the offspring.

Janu made just a shriek in the darkness.
Like a fried sardine, her body 
lies on a mat within 
a human...
