Master

Master, master 
I have to succumb to your every command
Not able to fulfill my own desires
My destiny has been mapped out
By your sadistic planning
My fate sealed

Not Yet Known

start to unearth 
the uncharted 
depths not 
yet explored
beginning with the 
unknown aspects
that lay deep
underneath the 
surface of 
awareness
exposing the
un-mapped
areas of the 
self not yet 
known

London Town: Highgate Cemetery

a beautiful silence
spirals from turrets
that twist like the pathways
through the bracken and grass.

the stars that still shine here
are mapped out as numbers
in a gothic hereafter
for the tourists who pass.

A Fool's Errand

Life’s meandering journey …
mapped by a fool
Clairvoyant foretelling
the dilettante’s tool
Around every corner
the road twists and bends
A marble or diamond
— but choice to portend 

(Dreamsleep: February, 2024)

Possible

outside of all the boxes,
dwells the realm of innovation,
uncharted territory,
to be discovered and undiscovered,
once mapped, sucked into the mainstream,
boxed and normalized,
each innovation expands the known,
while also increasing the unknown.

A Guided Map

One Road Is it Correct one If you have not planned The direction you should follow Go any road north, south, east or west whatever path You want for today without a guided mapped out course life's end equal regret

The Doppler Clock

I see them mapped,
Those curious axes,
Of then to now —
And now to there —
A most uncommon graph.

Hark to the moment nearly here — 
In flash it comes — 
Mere moment to receive it —
Goes it then thence a race away, 
Inverse to how it came,
And somehow just the same.

For Her

I hope your day is wonderful, 
despite your desperate heart, 
though pain yet lingers mixed with fear
His plan was mapped from start

So I just write to let you know
I hope your day is wonderful
and say I love you so,
no other mom could be like you,
so strong, so loving too!

Stunning Flowers

Breathtaking splendid eclipsed the oceans 
yielding into the vision beholding 
born mind blowing radiant a pathway is mapped 

Carried upon a whisper love's softest voice sings 
inside the heartbeat warmth echoes 
murmurs of a thousand suns burn 
you are the creator beyond beautiful

Early Monday Morning

The progress
of garbage trucks
down dark streets
is mapped across
my waking and draws
nearer in the grind
of jaws that gorge
on what's left
of yesterday
and the morning
finding its voice
in the throats
of emptied bins flung
into a noisy wake.
I feel better after
they've gone.

Faith

On a road that's supposed to be straight
my life has changed mostly from faith
a turn from the road helped me to do
a life once mapped out has led me to you
I see the stars and I see the sun
My heart is so full and nowhere to run
My words are real the thoughts are true
but most of all I love you..

Shadow of the Grail

shadows protrude the physical realm
pilots of light at our vessels helm
directives plotted , mapped and charted
intuition , gateways guarded
competing forces triggering sparks
understanding to avoid the dark
skullcap , fortress , our mind dwells
heart of hearts , life and love
our holy grail.........

Feel

We may seek a better life.
We may seek a better deal.
But what of the questions of this life?
When a life dies, does a soul choose to heal?
If our provenance is spiritual, if our existence is really this surreal.
Is it more important to choose a mapped out life or should we bend more on what the life is we feel?

Where Do Each of Us Fit In

We are not given the choice during our lifetime Our path is already mapped out for each individual As hard as we try to change our path It is quite difficult or impossible to become Someone else, it is engrained in our soul A character of ill repute or a leader of a great nation Where do each of us fit in?

Wool and Mink

You're the April in my March, you make my tulips grow
In brilliant colors, majesty, bursting through the snow 
Your sunlit face, your dazzling smile, warm my coldest day
And the bluest eyes I've ever seen do whisk me away
To a land unheard of, never mapped, and never someone knew
Where the sunsets are incredible, and only seen by two

I Just Didn'T

I couldn't
Take a hint
I couldn't
Find a clue
You laid it
Heavy, right 
On the line
But I still
Seemed to miss
The moral
Of the story

I couldn't
See where
I was falling
Even though
You mapped it
All out
Before I went
Down the road
To where we'd
Meet

Disaster for 
The one lost
Who's only
Follwing
Their feelings

Rejection Letter

When the words don’t lure me with their muse, Desire to pour out hopes, dreams, light that bleeds, Wetting the beauty of my heart’s best seeds, Emptying the feelings, once caged by pain, shame, Thoughts meant to be penned, poetry, mapped out, Despairing of the urge to stay buried by a trail of can’t.

All about mapping

Paradox

In the telling of

A story may

Transform the story..



A map

Is not separate

From the territory..

It can and cannot

Be a guide...



The territory

Cannot be mapped

But maps

Nevertheless

Appear to serve

A story's need

For a move to

Chicago...



Separation and mapping

Are not two..

The Elder

In the shadow of this tree, 
Judas mapped his misery, 

But saw no finger-post, save one: 
A beckoning oblivion.

So up he climbed, with labored breath, 
To where he could devise his death.

The twisted tree, by time distressed, 
Would ratify his wretchedness, 

And let him fall — his loss complete, 
The seamless sky his winding sheet.

Emily Dickinson

Crowned poet,
posthumous Queen 
of the private world, 
you explored
every subtlety of the soul
and mapped the wonder
of existence 
to its last drawn breath.

What price did you pay
deep in your alabaster chambers,
charting the course 
of a nameless presence 
stretched across eternity, 
giving it a home 
in the exquisite vessel 
of your words.

Dear Friend

Hello dear friend,
It's me again,
Escaping to our secret place
Where few to none obtain.

But to puzzle together 
These thoughts we measure,
That inward may outward become,
Thrills us again and again.

When ordered and mapped
And our soul is unwrapped
And others experience our home.

We, you and I ,
Break forth to the sky
Trumpeting forth as a poem.

Arrow In the Heavens

Now all the clouds have passed
And the full moon is aglow
All the stars are shining
Putting on a wondrous show

Seek and you will find
What it is you're looking for
The stars have already mapped it out
No need to search anymore

Your solace from distress
Can now be laid to rest
Place your troubles on Orion's arrow
And let him shoot them as far as they can go

Adapting To the Good Life - Or

Schmooze me darling, my appetite is rapt. Drinks with umbrellas - a tropical freeze. Cruise for teal blue waters whilst I adapt. Shrinks the mainland - aims towards* coconut trees. Muse takes the wheel - island adventure mapped. Winks his erotic eye - how wild the seas. Weather for sailing - no longer a wreck, Tether me, baby, to your wafting deck.

Waiting

Waiting

Gone is the luster in the hazel eyes
That once worshiped you.
Gentle olive hills and valleys,
Bear spider mapped lines
Across white foothill sands and
The I that is left misses you.

Your Adonis form and chiseled face
Have gone where I cannot go,
Here neath soft clouds, I hide from you,
Awaiting that gentle wind to bear me on
Renewed to you as
Before the world, we will forever be.
