wordy duels and specious logic
no longer holds allure
it’s not in knowing but becoming
we feel bliss beats pure

The ego plaintiff's tool ~ oppression,
lest the house be ruled by God with intercession,
the sameness ranks and duels with fool's content ~ obsession,
and heart's song ranks with fools, in its regression!...

clashing with dues yet to heal

INVASION OF THE NORTHERN LIGHTS

            swift light loop
         lariates the mountain
             impossibly

                 nocturnal
            ancient spirit duels
                 sky terror

RECKLESS ARMS

The room shimmers –air whispers as he strides
Light duels with shadow to crown his head
Reckless love sends me waltzing into his arms
I toss and turn --sweetly restless in my bed
Into the window he climbs—on the sill his glove of red....

In school with rules,
Me and my freind have pencil duels;
My evil cat haunts the kids,
While some how opening pickel lids.

In this place,
It's not a race;
Get lots of rest,
For the big tests.

Study all night,
Don't get a fright;
This is just school,
No need to be cool....

Both speed and intensity,
obstacles on earth’s great sea.
Srong gales top the weather charts
vying winds of valiant hearts.

Freezing forces whip about,
crowded in the hold we pray.
Faith duels with fear and doubt.
Ahoy! ahead! dawn’s new day.

The vibes we ride
the highs, the lows
conversations with
conclusive innuendos
Hypotheticals and 
experiments
we engage in
acrobatics of
noun and verb duels
Your en garde
I fall hard
Butter knife
tongues
Eucharistic bread
the uncovering
of your body
unravels my
mentality
Intoxicatingly
sipping your
Lord have mercies
Amen and Amen...

“What nonsensical nursery rhymes!”
Cried Rose, “Are these verses too?” 
She failed to understand!
She failed to employ a rich tempo 
Of the imagination: wild & wide!
She cracked open a fragile head 
But left empty an emotional heart!
O many a nonsensical line 
Have celebrated been! She failed
To conceive of nature’s rhymes 
To taste of the sweet & bitter wine 
Where a lad drinks with the muses!...
