Pralaya the Great Floods
grasshoppers cling to
the driest of all corn cleaves
and get wiped away

Grateful Life
Grateful, my life to the Lord cleaves*

Black Locust
Distance cleaves us
Though we drink of the smiles
Bubbling from the corners of our lips
The colours of courtship begin to swivel
Locust echoes bloom ever so fearlessly
As fair passion sweeps through the fog...

Belief
A boy serves his parents
He thinks they are God
'Till, coming of age
He sees them as odd...
The boy, his home leaves
To a stranger now cleaves
His mother, his father, aggrieved
-- No matter --
The boy, once again, believes...

~gelu Pectus Pectoris~
What is purpose?
When hoary whispers cascade,
turning sensuality to slush,
and within I freeze.
Each tender touch
cracks support;
cleaves the foundation,
so all I can do is shatter
into slivers of self,
then melt into absence....

Auf Wiedersehen
A shaft of sunlight
cleaves their reveries,
and the spell evaporates,
their fate is sealed,
their goose is cooked!
Morning-mouthed,
bedraggled, the reality of day
makes for a rude awakening
and reluctantly they say
auf wiedersehen....

My Northern Heart
You say I'm not romantic enough
But with you I show all my love
Maybe I just don't express enough
Maybe I have to much northerner blood
But I love you I do
Till death cleaves us apart
Or the sound of our lover quite singing in our heart...

I do not know?
He's Hers When She's His
He's Hers when She's His.
Her feelings are pure
He stole her heart to cure,
when she moves away from him
He cleaves to reach her heart's brim.
Who knows what grows
that's because he sows,
she endures in her wars
He knows and restores.

Bite Size -- Beyond Dimensions
Grows the night when breaths lay
quietly
On obscure spaces fluid as the wind,
Where clouds of rest become a
hammock ,
Lulling frayed nerves with incense
As blend of matter and being cleaves-
For beyond dimensions...grows the
the night.

Perception
Beauty is a matter of perception,
And we lack the visual empathy to truly distinguish how
It cleaves those who failed to be perfection
In the eyes of beauty,
Equated to perfection and its perfectionist
I say a masterpiece is worth
More when it’s flawed,
Flawed as is the word when, it’s flawless....

Thunderstorm
Cooler air stream rides
On back of thundering storm
Wicked this way comes
Pounding rain and hail
Weather clash of the titans
Lightning cleaves the sky
Thunder quakes the land
Animals flee fast in flight
Humans seek cover
Dark siege slowly ends
Battle clouds exhaust their rage
Scattered by the sun...

Authentic Again
Darkness cascades,
When dawn fades.
Reigning is rare
Until dusk spades
Into depth of faiths,
Not a day but decades.
Insensitivity impairs
But care repairs
Authenticity is supreme
It's not just in my dream
Anymore on just lash's rim.
Rebirth is not a flair,
It cleaves through twilight
Like an ineffable beam...

Lyric
Writer's Block
A solitary pencil line,
stretched taught
on distant snow.
Cleaves blank sky
from frozen ground.
Gives hope of where to go.
Accidental thought
creates a tree I toil towards
its trembling twigs
find only that I'm lost
and all about me
unspoiled virgin white
except the fading words
from where I've been....

Cause and Effect
Your calm betrayal
forms rivers of crimson tears
that stream down my cheeks.
Your rabid fury
cleaves trails of searing anguish
that blaze through my heart.
It started with me
creating a false idol
in your likeliness.
Perpetuated
by your homily preaching
of a twisted grace.
I shouldn’t have knelt
to worship at your alter
of fallible love....

Patterned Death
on this form
falls this force,
this elemental motion
brings to bear a center,
a thread woven inextricably
from a patterned death.
a modality of means,
pulled tightly but
too Abundant to refuse breath.
a willfull sword cleaves
the self from
any wretched root,
the dead leaves' fall
gives life to limb
and flame
as flame gives
light & blood
to our backs...

Looking Back
A high silhouette,
lucidly etched, a raptor,
feathers flickering in sunlight,
a thing carved
and branded in a window of space,
an osprey.
It plunges, strikes the filmy dazzle
a bristle of talons,
and there on the face of the water
it cleaves its own swooping shadow.
Then it mounts the sky once more;
a shimmering fish
looks back
at its last swim....

The Smile At the Foot of a Ladder
the first step’s the sweetest
the ladder steady
not splintered
no thought
of the problems up at the top.
the foot is giddy
impish, tapping
with dewy-eyed toes.
under a frolicsome smile,
an ankle circles in mid-air,
daring the stare of his mother
as she cleaves to nine feet below.

Weather
restless heavens strike
sky pregnant with tsunami ---
coal black gloomy clouds
thunderbolt assaults
gleam daylight cleaves into dusk ---
waves of cosmos break
rainbow pacifies
winds wash their face in drizzles ---
sun in day dream blinks

Black Spot Pluck
My friend,out of desperation
I need to stick my fingers
deep inside your heart
and pluck out that big black spot
Everyone would be much better off...
You could finally earn that medal
put your humanity on the podium
a halo of gold around your soul
but you won't let anyone get close enough...
so, the black spot grows thistle- cold
cleaves the willow from your being
'till you careen off the soft edge of your
dreams......
