Rare talent,born in Kinross
His early death,poetry's loss;
To God he gave all his praise,
Famed now for his verse paraphrase,
A legacy on which we all may gaze.

That you were the village
And you were the world."...

[paraphrase of a Svan folksong]

I left only a deep hole
I put the sword to Constantinople
I drove them into the sea
I made their lands my lands....

Hangovers are a back-tax on fun.

To paraphrase T.S. Eliot: 
"Can last night just belong to last night?”

I’m not thinking about sins and penance 
or making any bound-for-failure resolutions.

I’m giving myself a mental health break....

Emotion & feelings,active, no longer passing fads of intervening years. A latter day passion,now fading from view along the different path I now stride. Hastened by love,poignant,as a moth to a flame to paraphrase a truth. Willing to take a risk,each aspect leaves its mark as sunlight upon the mundane....

To paraphrase the greatest of masters -
You may cast a stone

And if you say you have no sin?
Thus you have no need of healing.

What say you
now..
what likeness
do you display today..
what image
do you contrive..
which trademark
will you leave
for others to ponder-
will it be tempered
by love or
merely
a paraphrase
of the truth
which you so carefully
conceal..
I'm intrigued
I only ask..
is there someone real
behind that mask?...

Dark Fight With the Midterm
Moving on into the night
I struggle with ideas,
Trying in desperation to fit words
To a subject I don't even understand

A train sounds its horn
A sound born of forlorn lament
A cry shorn of language
Torn between anguish and mourning

Research work
Rattling across my inner landscape
Paraphrase paraphrase paraphrase
Mindless conglomeration...

Humble stirrings of our spheres,flowers of inner feelings in a retrospective of words,made now,for the moment.From heart to pen,to heart.Inner & outer thoughts this capacity to evoke,soul to soul.Roses from the flush of youth,petal by petal the unconscious to impart.Moving images of the intellect,intangible yet speechless,felt &seen,said sounds to paraphrase the resonance of truth....
