Short Gallivanting Poems

An empty space
Fade to black
Exposed for the taking
Vital is this
Open lot to sanity
Brace yourself
Darker than the night
Brighter than the sun
Bask in the glow
Of peace and calm
Life is started here
Ends here and
In every sense
Regenerated here
Brief recesses
Gallivanting in the cortex
Refresh my soul
Priming me to face
The universe once again...

Gallivanting about with doubt
You could fly to natural high
Hades called, saw you fall, like
Bottomless bucket unfulfilled.

Life became blue/black strife
Stripped your will to climb
From valley to hill, until
Your empty soul lamented thirst.

Such fog like state of zero visibility
You heard of fountain of faith, and
Felt grace ushering you forth, one
Snowy evening of warmth you knew.

Curiously creative critters crowded confused Crystal
Deliberately demanding diverse diagrams during depression
Eliciting extra enthusiastic energy entertaining elves 
Formulating fresh flippant flares for Freddie
Giving generous gifts, gallivanting gleefully
Heartily having healthy hopes helping Henry
Igniting imagination inducing interesting investigations
Jealous juicy jazzy jabberwocky jitterbugging...

These are the steps I've taken:
     the unique skip tap jump,
     nonchalant stride, slow stroll,
     precarious perch of Bible on brow,
     Finnish finesse of skiing hard,
     wild gallivanting gallop
when we rendezvous, just us two
in an ecstasy of expression:
     play horses, play snow,
     play desert dying on the way home
and so it was I learned drama
with friends that didn't freak out....

Grotesque green grandpa and grandma goblins gratifying greasy gravies.
Gregariously greeting grateful guests who are going goat-herding in Greenland.
Glimpsing grievous grandchild who gobbles greasy gravies greedily, 
Grandma and Grandpa gives Gabe, their gallivanting grandson a glimpse of
Grotesque germs giggling and gallivanting in grease.   Gabe is good-natured
as he gobbles, and gasps at the germy gunky gravy....

In our last rendezvous
We sat in a precarious way
On the ledge.
But our ecstasy was unique
Collected, composed, nonchalant;
A perfect blend of finesse
In our mutual heart,
Both acquiesce to the objective,
a promise for both,
Wherever we are
Whatever we are
Whenever we are
Unqualified, unconditional
And not to play around
Gallivanting.

Serenity

Nonchalant was not in inscribed in their Universe 

A rendezvous lived coming round full karmic circles 

Precarious only to uninitiated tantric disinhibition

They taste sacred ecstasy and follow the script

Acquiesce moons stars comets milky sunny ways

Kindness love caressing compassion’s subtle finesse

Secure in sensual expression unique to their bond

Gallivanting to each other’s lips and to heaven below

romance of a Roma waggon
tinkering around the world
dreams of blissful freedom
no possessions nothing to lose
bells and whistles violin music
horses with intricate saddles
gallivanting on free reins
crackling camp fires

before you unsettle
look around you
scapegoating and othering
xenophobic attacks
even a tramp under a bridge
has less ill repute
at least a German born hobo

last caveat
visit the museum
at Auschwitz Birkenau

Thought of her is gallivanting 
on the boulevards of my brain 
like a wild river in spring 
roused by the pouring rain. 

Thought of her makes me alive 
everytime my soul wants to surrender. 
She's the reason I survive 
the wild storm and raucous thunder. 

For even if this mind does not care 
whether this wretched body will live or die, 
thought of her makes me aware,
and what makes me want to try.
