The sea has many moods
It can give the shore a gentle kiss
Its wave can get angry as it broods
Its power is futile to dismiss
As it lashes the shore with a hiss
I walk in cold snow
with gentle, fragile snowflakes
like the tears I weep each night ~
Drifting, filigree
to kiss my lips- then, the snow
falls faster 'till all is white . . .
I glide, a heavy, odd glide,
Through a moody weekend,
Its gasps choked, and;
Taste like bitter wormwood.
Fragile hearted, I,
Tears soaked my eye,
A subtle soul rose high,
And still, ended a heavy cry.
I exhaled noxious smog,
My very aura got tainting,
Whatever virtue, I cling,
It's a long glid; I'm strong.
Moods shift like a wildfire in a violet -virulent wind.
Everything that flees is freed or scorched -scarred.
Everything left behind prays with unmatched intensity.
Emotions and levity are assigned to the grave.
Some guardian angels are successful.
Others are perpetually on sabbatical.
A few are just too damned green.
Or too blind to make any difference.
I'm told to have unwavering faith.
But I always waver to the third degree.
I'm told not to question, but I always question...
With unmatched intensity....
We live in terminally moody times.
I'm grumpy and I'm lumpy
Be nice to me or I'll snarl
Hurry up and feed me

The sky cries at times;
He emits fire, when needed;
Angry with a heart...
Today started out bright and shiny
Then suddenly turned cloudy and sad
Doesn't take much to turn it around
To change a good day to bad
Something that seems so insignificant
Can change the mood of the day
Like rain that falls that wasn't predicted
Or snow in the middle of May
They call us guys moody people
They wonder why we're up and down
It's quite uncontrollable most of the time
We'd much rather smile than frown
So if you see me with a frown on my face
Remember it's nothing you said
It's just this up and down mood I get in
Much rather be upbeat instead
Lately I've been much more up than down
Happy it's not the other way round
Don't want to put an end to it any time soon
Decided I'd still like to hang around
Have no fear, love life way too much
To do myself some bodily harm
Would be totally contrary to who this guy is
You'll never say, “he bought the farm!”
My body aches
And my soul brakes
But I've grown to
Love it
("The Interworld", 2018, original encaustic)
The Interworld
An Interworld
of fading light
twilight, midnight
Never bright
Of shadows shifting
moving on
spiral ‘round
and then gone
A dance a play
at edge of thought
time and space
come to naught
To leave us right
where we started
The Interworld
Now open hearted
(9/28/23)
When you meet a peacock
In dancing moody
don't be angry,
Just be ready
to dance in its rhythm.
When you meet the lion sleeping
Pass silently in front of it.
When you meet with African leopard
If you are royalty , speak to it
and it will escort you.
What have we but life
both first and last
The rest an illusion
—of future’s past
(Dreamsleep: May, 2023)
a moody spring day
the clouds cover the city
the sun keeps shining
I am the turmoil
The thought you just can't let go
Oh, you so wish to
Darkening mindset
An increasing impatience
Do you know me yet?
Mood swings come running towards me,
Doesn't matter if it is night or early.
Sometimes I feel angry,
Which changes into glee.
Sometimes I feel happy,
Which changes into gloomy.
Sometimes I feel day-dreamy,
Which changes into clumsy.
Is it just a hormones play?
Or is it just another dismay.
I wonder if it is normal or is it just me,
Does it happen to anybody?
Or to the doctor I flee?
In a split of a second I start to feel moody,
So many emotions it's highly messy,
Sometimes I just don't know what to feel truly!

where discussions take us
from price to certainty
Costing then finds us as we
are excited to see
in awe we gloat and glare
those whos lesser understanding
just look at stare
which reduces labor
a chore which we support
then to doing
then that whats been needed
done
we applaud happy
as we prepare to drill
