Long Unbinds Poems

In mania, the body unbinds itself.
The skeleton’s dense marrow becomes hollow,
an avian adjustment. It is accelerated evolution.
Fluttering and floating in a slew of thoughts
like nervous wind chime chatter.

My brother blew in through the rattling gate
accompanied...

Your viewpoint can be comforting,
Or your viewpoint can be troubling:
Either comforting as a safeguard,
Or as troubling as a canard.

A safeguard tunnels Saints through sin.
A canard tunnels sinners through spin.
Though God created man upright,
He schemes to...

My momma and my papa
we eat out once a month;
not too near and not too far
a nice and quiet lunch.

We went this time for chicken
they make it oh! so well;
it's all the same, no difference
i...

(Mise en Scène* ‘meez on sen’ - French theatrical term meaning “placing on stage.”)

A word has weight 
I weigh each word
lest the wrath of god 
unbinds the bird
that holds the night 
inside its throat ...

Jesus walked up that hill to Calvary
Freeing a sin filled world from slavery
To evil that was caused by God’s enemy
A fallen angel who was filled with jealousy
Because he knew God was the mighty one
Who shaped...

THE SUN BEATS ITS DOWNWARD GAZE

The sun beats its downward gaze 
Onto a spread-out garden,
Shimmering among the arrayed blossom,
With sultrily humid, sweat-inducing rays,
To break up the encrusted ground.

A resurrected form unbinds itself
From winter's hardening strictures,...

Tiny bar percussion instrument, I am in awed.
I rhythmically stroke my thumbs across your tines,
My soul floats upon your notes; my heart applauds.
Tensions and sorrow float away; your music unbinds.

It seems natural to hold you...

As will of God files way, upon consign
His will in me is filing ~ full resign
like aptitude resolved, but not assign
I file forgiveness, that my own not fine~

The will of God in you, His whole...

Eyes are closed but souls are not yet
A wrap of white envelopes glow
Holding the four sides with a heavy toe
Darkness unbinds the weeping flow

A bed of dazzling flowers welcomes the white
Angels of love enchantingly bow
Birds...

long scarf of a night
 clasping the bracelet of a moon,
 what emptiness is this when i have you not near?
 the distance of a thousand galaxies collecting stars
 unbinds me,
 when once i could...

In a lonely garden there' s a shrine
where upon a rough hewn stone is writ:
“GOD IS LOVE.”

The devoted supplicants make wail,
water the flowers, feed with crumbs
the sacramental dove.

A priest, decrepit, feeds the holy fire,
rakes the...

I pull the silk drapes of night back,
and I watch as my darkest reality 
merges into nothing 
and everything


where the beginning and the end 
are cradled in the hands of Mother-time 
and fold together, forever...

It was when the bowl
smashed,
and my hands slackened


I knew


lips were moving
a throat was talking nothing
and my eyes were seeing
what my ears could not follow


the ties that bound
had been cut


as each piece of glass
shattered into moments
of...

It binds firmly
Leaving no room to ramble
Of an unsweet taste it is
Yet in naivety we hasten to taste of it
Until the flesh of our tender hearts
Are scarred by its unrelenting grip
The memories forever tattooed on...

Orb of no entropy unbinds the soul
It can grow beyond the soul
 Abstract from point of view of beyond soul
Shakes that very soul

Time has no meaning even at the base
Master of time is master of...

Dreary dream dies
Entice each eye
Trust truth to tie
Opt open orbs
Use unbinds urge
Reach rides research


Do discern dare
Eat egg éclair
Thrill tragic trounce
Observe odd ounce
Unfurl unveil
Ride roomy rail


Dote deep desire
Etch end empire
Troubles trim top
Old options opt
Urge unzips use
Ripe...
