The Plural Sky and the Temptation of Its Mirrored Eyes

its rippling tableaus of tomorrow
underneath open light waves
see-saws the labyrinth
like Delphi tendrils crossing channels
all the changing faces played
automatic, embedded in misty consort
with Hyde-Lees and Yeats
love-crushed oracles

The Mask of TourmalineTwice the night had fallen upon a sleepless slumber,
Yet again awoken by winter when the third was three in number.

Ten turns to twenty,
Then, thirty to forty,

In a moment…
Blessings are forgotten,
Sometimes simply ignored…
While hope is found in hearts

Love that abides in the soul…
