a twilight sonnet
Twilight tiptoes through curtained clover leaves
Cape starlings stanzaed thank mighty Lord
spindly legs shake on spritely evensong breeze
closing chirp reminding that day is just a chord
What achievements marked chanting hours
manifesting with helio hands and heedful head
paper, pencil, thoughts danced about in bower
patterned sensations twirled needle and thread
A silent hymn I sit awaiting

On the Banks of Needle Brook
I would sit on the banks of needle brook
And dream of faraway lands
To where I would go
Nobody would know
I would dance upon clouds
And ride on the tails of comets
I would swim in oceans deep
And ride on the backs of wild animals
I would swing on vines in deep jungles
And skip

Needle Thrill
Step all over your footsteps of past
throw away your tear wet napkin
slowly cut your wrists than touch your lips
as if death can't come soon enough
call all your selfish ideas, pick one
hopefully one will end you forever.
Stand still sudden feel of needle thrill
high and free you live the dream
that smell won't leave my clothes

ETERNAL NEEDLE TO TREAD-
Before the dawning of this world age
My Father spoke, exchanging premise I was in Him needle to tread
In the grace, His space
A line define energies graft through the tunnel in womb needle to tread
~
I come, I came through too needle to tread, I bled
Awaken fully physically dead yet I live eternal needle to tread

Seamstress
I whispered goodbye with my forehead pressed against the pane.
My breath fogged my words as I watched you walk from my thoughts.
The loneliness is longer this time.
My side seems so bare now that the threads are undone.
I should find my sewing box.

Needle In The Eye And other Fun Things
I disclose that I
Have regular appointments
For a needle in my eye
A thing I dread
And I'm afraid of most
Is when I see that Javelin
Getting close
It hurts so much
I want to die
And like a little girl
I cry out NO sob and cry
Don't move the nurse said
As she tied me to the bed
Ouch and have you

The needle trick
Put a nickel on the needle
Hold me down so I won't skip
Spin the red top round and round
Catch me before I hit the ground
You sunk my battleship
You knocked my block off
You catch me quite off guard
Should you ever breathe my way
You'll wreck my house of cards.

A needle more than scissors
There once was a noble man, a tailor,
A great soul disguised in a routine role,
In sea of humdrum life, a skilled sailor
In search of a hallowed path of plain goal.
A king when came to him, homage to pay,
Gifted a pair of scissors made of gold
That left the sage ponder,

Drop the Needle On the Record Baby Head and Heels Deep In Love
Drop the Needle on the Record
And that sweet soul music blast
" Baby "
Sorry
" Grandad "
A relic now from a previous age
And when you do and it begins
Listen very carefully to whence it starts
To that beautiful cracking sound it makes
And just sit back relax
As it slowly takes and makes you
drift further back and back in time
And

Refining Conciousness
the brain is a quantum tunnel
acting as a needle eye
photons entering a shallow funnel
allowing either side to spy
how it does not explode
i do not know… why?
why wont it go down that road?
why does it not just combust?
0……
……1
the sun shines its rays
and the brain sheds its rust
the moon becomes a maze
and the rest is turnt to

Affectionate Needle and Thread
On the bottom of a swiftly flowing riverbed
Emotions are being polished, in rocks stead
More than can be imagined in anyones head
Joyfully, our two hearts stories are being read
Tangled and entwined, us in this watershed
Sewn, we are by affectionate needle & thread
Eyes locked in conversation, no words ever said
I long for every moment as we cuddle
