Cold chaos, long hiatus
Hidden from the sun...

When the mind's adrift-
An idle pen sits, and

Love the only real vibration 
All else transient, an illusion
If there be a hiatus in elation
Look for ego borne delusion 

Within

Sometimes it can be difficult to understand how what you did effects what you will do. 
But once you understand that truth, you will understand how to move foward....

We were fond of breezes
Shadows in the desert
Crystal lakes on mountains
Dollars in the sand

In my days of wonder
War was just a concept
Peace was like a shadow
Creeping on my lawn

Old Jack is going to turn over new leaf
Gonna be prim and proper to everyone's relief
Been much too naughty
Getting way too raunchy
But trust me, this hiatus will definitely be brief...

Deep darkness
Gloomy skyline;
Lightning flash


Window view
Twenty storeys high;
Stray songbird choir


February styles
Tropical heat wave --
Rain on hiatus here?

crisp rainy morning
leaves blanket wet forest ground ~
hidden hare haven

barren trees sparkle
sunrays warm frosty branches ~
forest awakens

amber pine needles
hide visible forest paths ~
public hiatus...

A hiatus in my journey
Comes with the languishing
Love we once shared.
Our paths diverged,
Never to rejoin.
A hiatus is complete,
Rendering me broken.
But not beyond repair.
Time will continue
Despite a momentary breach....

I usually trust easily
In consonance with my faith
I believe what I do not know
Listening for you to tell me go
Over the fence of ignorance
She was one country
I should not enter blind
Yet waiting indeterminate
Must also be a proof of faith...

Hiatus

A pause or gap
Which if we consider
Lies between words
Between breaths and
Thoughts..
Between musical notes..
It seems that we
Must listen in the gaps
For the silence and the
Absence of measure..
For what we are:
Holy Hiatus...!...

How do I pick up after this long break
The melee of mute thought and emotion
Rims of paper, vials of ink would take
To fill hiatus of this proportion
Nights of lightning, storm and shattering quake
Giving the fallen foliage a shake

Sting my eyes with your butterfly kiss
bringing out the crazy in me,
Swing upon my highs and lows 
things can get a little messy;

Wild hearts seek wildfires 
smiled, succumbing to emotional chaos; 
Beguiled by little things, they mean so much 
exiled relishing in logic’s hiatus....

If bliss the quietus, heart glows
We feel complete and whole
Soma nectar within us flows
Remains no earth bound goal 

Purring magnetic heat
Has us feeling upbeat
Suffused with joy replete

There is no hiatus
If bliss the quietus

im back again to spit my spew
its  back again my point of view

taken back form old disaster
im back again and im the master

i can breathe a breath of air
i am back...and now i care

about the views you place at hand
i have grown
i am a man

my life is good to say the least
i am awakened
a rested beast...
