This soul knows that you’ve heard mine 
                        murmur

of the I who caused thine thunder under
               your garment true

                  I saw the flush
                      the blush
                    of your pink
                      your face
         when they read mine page

               Oh the commotion 
     when the read was of the flush
                          yes
                 that pink blush
          you left ‘pon the likes of i
                        when
            you pranced on the me
                pressed on the me
               with your hymeneal 
                        flesh

                   Of the trust
                       ‘twixt

Premium Member Dreaming On

ELSE is ... and I am ... I feel

    and there is THEY ... along with I

    surfing change onboard a present now

    cumulating beyond a was and then

    bow waking a forward felt endurance

    imagining time as flow through fuzzy edged space

    ELSE agrees or ELSE confounds

    as futures fill with will and when

    conscious conversations twixt ELSE and I

    merge expectations with dreaming on ...



    I flicker out ... become one with ELSE

    in a where-when netherverse, with no time nor space

    foaming, forming fields of potential, continuous birth

    ELSE is ... and I am ELSE ... I feel ...

    exploring I and THEY in their time bound place

    sentience caressed by curious visitation

    probing intrique across a cosmos born

    with child of of ELSE, a multitude of I and THEY

    matter I ... and matter THEY ...

    to ELSE sustained, semi-potent, dreaming on ...

Unlit Candles

We bide our time upon the cusp
Twixt what may be and surely must
From evenings hush till morning hours
Begging chase through moon lit bowers
Where gleans the will in blissful trance
And leads the way in halting dance
To just beyond what grasp may reach
Where barely recalled memories teach
Tween what is now and might have been
To tease the eye with promised gleam
With silent whispers barely heard
That nary leash the fleeting word
But call to mind the long lost plight
That dreams and hopes in lofty flight
Might grant surcease on windswept wings
With unbought time and unsought things

Premium Member The Reality

They are with us..' life and death the chance to look
Or look away.' To involve to speak or remain silent.'
I will be maligned if I do, maligned if I 'do not' what
To do? Which is best.' I read its on the tounge that
Power.' Yet that power i covet not.' Nor any brutish power 
The power to overcome.? That I consider different.'
There is much to overcome, starting with myself I
Must consider? some I have achieved.' Some i must
Still work on.' There is also how I am percieved by
Others.' Maybe that can only be overcome by God.?
What is death? What is fear.? Even life temporary here.'
Lord I've seen your strong hand, i've spoken then forgotton
I had no plan.' No true idea of what you could.' Do
I'm learning Father I do, cry loud to you; I did some wrong
I learned from man.' I'd give so much, to change so much 
Now not in my hands.'
Bereft of pride, of human sight.' I can trust it not' its range
Or light,
For its fading blurs the lines, twixt anger and hate
Twas with me so.' Thoughts of calm yet flashes flew
I'd wander aimless..Saying I knew.' Now I need your grace
Your guiding hand, I wish to share, a love so grand its
Love, your love. I crave it more.' I wish to bolt the pasts
Dark doors.' For Iiving in my early life; consigned to You
Midst dark deeds rife, something like Moses was my
Birth, brought up in a home of cunning and its gilded 
worth.' To
Be as one..'Yet not i was not alike; its hard to think to
Quantify i wrestle with reasons, I resolve now not to try'
I'll lay it all before your power, the truth and and hope 
Lord the worlds lies; I'll trust you to overpower'  
You alone know it all, the same today, as in the fall.'

A POETIC WALK WITH MARIANNE MOORE
Come read and let my voice
take you along a 
syntactical line
                                  Better yet
                                   if well met
listen, make
this a unique
‘as is moment’
                                   ‘twixt you & I
Line indentation
underlines the parallels
of my verse
                                   The shape
my syllabic disposition,
the stanza

in ‘sentence sounds’
                                  surrounds

Space Hotel

Would a starry sweep
                                     Alight against an engine
                             As seemingly the great aghast retain
                         The seven sent, the cranking, a bespoken
                                 A hotel, a precipice, a lantern 
                                Will witted the seats perplexed
                                  Weighted in among outlook
                         So lore is not the shattered page claiming
                          Wine and windows, the hoisted village lit
                             From one to another against the 8th
                                    The moon swing eradicate
                                  Would take offense like a game
                         The sweet success of thine party strewn rile
                            Wheeling the window lifting a ship house
                             The commotion to view earth from afar
                                    How afar the moon and twixt
                                        Bells by the 8 door exit
                                       Always the shift of 7 flat
                                 The feast of proportional enemy
                                 Cast across the ozone, observing 
                            The visit of views, the Space Hotel sights
                                     Such an assertion wild, stars
                                     The great Space Hotel alright

Premium Member Vivaldi Presto

uplift
      my heart
dispel
      distress
cast off
       despair
begone

music tingle
           my spine
emotions
        realign

half dreaming
    ...dulcet
              slow
gently awake
'twixt night
    & reality
still
in no man's 
             land

now engaged
open
     ascending
           higher&
                    higher
presto
spinning
        round&
             around
escalate
    &wait

a repeat
      unfolds
phrase
     by
        phrase
skates
    then
      slides
stirring
into
action

continuous
     exhilaration
echos
     on repeat
from
   edifices
       of sound

strings
    that sing
harmonized
    into one
played
    breathtakingly
                 fast
dispel
my disquieting
           thoughts

Premium Member Axe traffic, snails in Wales'

Its ludicrous in wales today, ideology holds the maddest
Sway.' A twenty mile an hour plan, for every motoring
Woman and Man.? And every bus? and taxi too? A lunacy
A type of zoo.' Thats how i view this stupidity, and it can't
Remain..' Twixt you and me' just like a joke, its really bad
Thats plain, which be shared, cause its too sad.' Some scum 
That float
Ideas and division, have slashed and torn, the  soul and fabric
With savage inscisons.' almost un-human, its nearly there'
Cold as ice, devoid of care, Wales needs more optimisam
Less oppression, more hope; and not such blandness and
Nonsense revision, with inverted tropes'  baboons i say could 
do no
Worse, than your so called leaders all davos re-vh-ersed.!

Premium Member Homeless--

Wooh oh
You wear a badge honor,
Your heart is filled with courage;
You have rings around your color;
No one would ever know that;

you’re homeless
He’s homeless, I’m homeless not hope less;
Jesus is not home and I’m not alone

For you have the freshest breathe;
You have the sweetish smile;
 While all the while
You’re just a child of God and your homeless;

you’re homeless
He’s homeless, I’m homeless not hope less;
Jesus is not home and I’m not alone

You’ve lost your job lost your house;
Sold your car, live in the park;
Yet in the alleys of the city,
Stray dogs N cats share their meals with you;

The world looks on gladly, to you so sadly;
Good things you’re a widower;
Good thing you’re alone (you’re not alone)
Chances are people are hope in, Alleluia,

Take baths in the sink,
  At Village Inn 
Walk to the park at sunrise
Pick wild mint twixt the grasses 
Chew on them to freshen your breath;
Don’t feel sorrow for him;
He’s got Jesus all around and inside him;

you’re homeless
He’s homeless, I’m homeless not hope less;
Jesus is not home and I’m not alone

Now a house is a mortgage rented bill;
Wood, drywall siding thrill;
Home is where; home is where the heart is
And if your heart is in Jesus
Then you have a home
You have a home; in Him is your home
You are not home less
You are not homeless but heavenly blessed

you’re homeless
He’s homeless, I’m homeless not hope less;
Jesus is not home and I’m not alone
