The lost mirror of humanity’s soul, covered by helix threads 
Or a creature who would destroy the wall of man and beast 
Who would rip apart man’s olive crown for the kingdom of nature...

Let’s sit under the night sky,
Let our love transcend this plane,
Let it go beyond the sky,
Reaching for the Helix Nebula,
Drifting in the constellation of stars,
Glittering in the starlight.

EMBODY 

Recruit into the realm of spiritual liberty
Reawaken the knowledge there already 
Locked inside the triple helix
Hidden inside man’s genetics
The modified man

The name of the brand:
The accelerated humanity
On the pivotal brink of breakthrough or insanity...

From the navel of God
I swirl forth
helix petals unfold
the dew of His love
glistens
in the naked morning mist
sun splashes across daybreak
I fan out my wings
like an eagle
expand my chest
take a deep blue bugle breath…
exhale peace, love and good wishes
a sweet fragrance
just for you...

Spandex thighs
Spiralized my eyes
Hyper flex her wonders
Set my helix spinning

Genetic refrain
DNA slain phonetic
Double down Maxwell magnetic
Electric blues make life too hectic

Two alarm scribe
Workout overtime perfection
Repetition fired sugar glider
Run your ladder up beside her...

as swans slide across lakes - sunset rays sway to autumnal reveries

ambling across swirling helix - of deadened cinnamon foliage 

mocking greenery framing skeletal bones - of lifeless roots crackling 

the warmth of your deep saffron gold aura - harvests the depth of our love

eclipsing rippling mistrals - simmering amidst auburn horizons...

Face to face with the witches of Halloween
curse black jellybeans

Zombie doctors, unbeating hearts out of whack
raisins giving back

Mad scientists, green goggles, double helix
rejecting trail mix

Undead bug blasters, squishing out eight-legged lice
No to apple slice

String cheese does not bring
Candy's following
Face to face with the witches of Halloween...

Stinking, gassy
Lady of the night
Flinging your hate
Sharing your plight

Succubus of want
Soft and perfumed
Angel from the depths
How close you have loomed

Syrupy kiss
Dripping with pleasure
A pleasant subpoena
To a fertile treasure

Black double helix
Dressed for the ball
Come on, Witchy!
Give me a call!

Yoked and complete
Drowning in my shame
Dark and lonely son
He knows who to blame...

I gaze a stalky single-helix cradle,
Squished so in seemingly hydrous blue cover,
Attracts square substantial planes in a bundle.

I embrace now feather's mass helve to ladle
Psychic portraits siphon to it in wander.
My fist fiddles as it scribbles on oodles.

Cuts of a suckling tree, soil, river fondle
Paper, pen, poet in cahoots as lovers
Rupture of a skeptic smug gnostic noodle...

Listen to poem:

the thoughts
they circle
in my head
they twirl
they settle
one by one

words dripping
from my pen
abstract
in links
and chains

till 
in colors
delectable
appear all
the velvet images

Not even its oceans could cleanse Macbeth’s guilt,
Etched into palms and cut into lifelines, within skin everlasting.
Poisonous serpents twist like gaseous clouds acrid, in a helix of
Trust doubled, betrayed by a cousin valiant no more.
Unknown and unseen, unjust and unkempt - a fate handed down unanimous.
Nocturnal damnation circling circling, that coven three upon a heath
Erupting at the manipulation of a man come undone....

Freddie a fury to the red herring dish
                                  Felix zeroed in on the waft of the fish
                                       Freddie the dog winked at Felix
                                      The cat's eyes were double helix
                            They toggled a shark at the Barth's Park Office

Jaws of havoc tear wicked fissures

The scabs speak eccentric riddles

Distraught a creature one could figure

Double helix coarsely fiddled



Face bared a thousand frightening scars

Behind each one lied fearful tales

Time only borrowed, Fate fiercely marred

Living in quaint chapters of Hell


A mere minor glimpse upon this beast

Shall slay my questions to rest

Though I can't forsake peace

Should it be life's infinite quest...

Listen to poem:

The Double Helix Weft
David J Walker


Time is an infinite tapestry
in the warp of a double helix weft
the days unseen 
are merely the dream
of a calendars chronicled theft

Time is an illusive lover 
Promises strewn on the sill
Of a window at random
Broken abandoned on the anvil 
of what might and what will

Time is the distant galaxy 
Light years in a single breath
When the day is done
No one has won 
The race matching live against death
