of silence-

A flower to name.
Its garment and its person
Are one and the same!...

shorn when we undress in our heart...

It’s the royalty garment

Kingdom of the lollipop
Bow down and lick my garment...

Holding tight her virginity..
Timid, twas her heart's tithe
As parting her silken garment
To offer her bride love's bloom....

Here’s a truth with embarrassment:
Male and female bodies begin 
with snug and firm fitting skin.
With age and overeating they end 
augmenting into something akin
to a loose hanging flaccid garment....

My anti-aesthetic garment spews out priest
Michael stands in river between olive trees
whose roots draw libido like Daphne's laurels
Apollo wore, in my drifting slumbering
pale Astro Projection where we meet again...

At Nan's.

 The pendulum swings,
Tocks the Grandfather clock,
The needles click, the garment grows
The fire crackles with joy,
So cosy sleeps the child,
Till cups in saucers gangle,
And cake smells waft the air....

My bank balance
Stood as a false idol 

Insurmountable as bubblegums
The smack of my lips

A Hallelujah
Heralding a full tummy

My fingers lost in wrappers
Spun a yarn
A garment made

To keep my nakedness
Naked...

Waterdroplets like diamonds bright
Reflected by morn's sun
Glisten 'pon the tender Maple
Then sun behind cloud runs

The fog has covered the forest
Wrapping in a damp coat
Cool garment of moisture surrounds
Like a veil softly floats...

Shadow lights reflecting 
on the tattered fringe
of soul,
the shiny threads reminding me 
that yes,
I once was whole.
The  remnant of a garment
That they now use as a shroud
wrapped around the sad remains of 
one who once was proud....

Fantasy,
is the garment we wear
day by day...
dreams feed
the reality and we
free from common, strengthen
our reality...
the hallucination of
being clay hallucinates us,
but the reality of being
  soul...
magnifies us, cheers us up...!...

Fall flaunts, flashing her red, the blazon of the bold, 

Waltzes and whirls in winsome triumph for a while...

Fash’nably fades,  flamboyantly retreats in style,

Surrendering her gaudy garment to the cold. 
  
October 3, 2020...

Fabric torn, worn and frayed-
The owner of this garment tearfully prayed.

Not for better clothes to wear-
Rather to take away the sins we share.

By dying upon a cross of guilt and shame-
Jesus beat the devil at his own game....

Deathwards go I—
Through this needle’s narrowing eye
Called Life, — 
With mortal Thread stitched—.

If garment be weaved—
From Life by the Weaver’s loom;
Then weaved was 
I by Him— ‘til worn and creased 
Out of shape into Death’s cold womb—....

Sweat is the other garment
   You wear in the desert
When the only water is in the cactus
   And all but the flies are inert

But a cool layer of sweat
   Is a hiker’s proof of award
For taking a thin trail
   And in curiosity, moving forward....

Everybody wants to go to Heaven,
Nobody wants to die.
But we cannot wear our earthly garment
To that wedding up on high.

We must put off this robe of flesh
To enter Heaven’s door.
We’ll wear a robe prepared by God,
And we’ll never die anymore....

He looks like a good person
from the physical appearance, 
little do you know he's poison 
wearing a garment of pretence 

He pretends to be a friend 
who will always help in danger 
though his mission always stand 
to devour you up like a monster...

34.
When your spirit is woolen,
the old stains are hard to lift
Never drench this heavy wool
The shrinking soul is swift.

Trauma choose the coarse cover
For wool is as strong as steel
And sorrow filled the basin wet
No garment covers how I feel....

Shes 
that makes me smile
that makes me breath

Need a garment
woven silk

to keep her warm

To give her colour

to make her understand

that theres more

to life 

than garment

theres more to life
than silk 

more to life than colour...

petite rhinestone buttons from the forties
buttoning up the back of a size zero blouse
it appears to be chiffon, sheer, classy, chic
Old Hollywood glamour, but who can wear it?
No one in this family; I want those buttons
But dare I deface this gorgeous garment?...
