In the moonlight...

Head over heels
Sun glinting
On its edges
Dreams afloat
On riffled air
The splash
A cool see-saw descent
Of hope’s
Last penny

Lunged with disdain and fierce brutality

Glinting, steel tongued cruelty

Hollow of joy, music and grace

Snowflakes falling, silently glinting, melting,       
Gracing wings of chickadees chirping gladly... 
Wistfully dreaming...

glinting like a lonely star 
on the closet floor
looking as lost as I feel
pining for your star-bright smiles

Yet darkness reigns as truth through fallow lanes runs hoarse and shallow;
So light as heaven's feather be the turns of ray and shadow....

Tapestry 
Weaved silken strands
Studded diamonds
Adorn the spiders craft

Clinging to green hedgerows 
Glinting. reflecting

What better sight could warm my heart than…
Sunlight glinting off the water
Where you swim in harmony
With Neptune’s own rhythm
Dancing with the waves
Sweep, crest, surge, rest…
Natural
As the
Sea...

rising on the dark horizon
of my turbulent little world
beaming, sparkling, gleaming, shining 
lightly from cloud to cloud
your love comes to me 
as a glimmer of hope
on a stormy day...

The white house on the hillside
Bright as ivory,
Entombs lost generations,
Coffined lovingly.

The mausoleum glimmers,
Glinting skull-white pale
A marble paradise where
Ancestors prevail…
Hearken!  Hear them wail!...

I need a blade of grass
dancing in the wind
I need sunshine
glinting on pedaled waters
I need a vision of life
forever changing, forever pleasing
I need more time
One more day
One more hour
Soft, it's done
I am no more....

Blood red sky
Crimson glinting
Hoping to flow
From the body which wish to die
Pale and white
From the loss of blood
Thick and dark
Escaping one’s wrist
To the once white tiles
Body and blood
Both leaving its home
Of life...

Night of full moon sky rise
Bathing all in soft white light embrace
Moon face reflecting from still lakes and ponds
Casting gentle sharp shadows   
Taking control of tides
Lighting the way for those at sea
Glinting from lovers staring eyes...

who is this woman who stands to claim you
twisted face and ratty hair
eyes glinting with greed
hand in your pocket
deceit in her words
I will smite her
like the bible
I'm sure God will lend me a lightning bolt
to put and end to this
misery...

message, and their medium


--- all-in-one ---


--- things-in-themselves ---


restless glinting fish


thrash this way, that,


only thinking that they're trapped


behind four glass walls,


inside their glass suburban house....
