ruptured skies embrace
shooting stars as violet seeps
into seams of earth
as sunlight retreats
into milky ways across a
constellation night...

The Fallacy of a Dream
There's a lot I could do,
For if my dream was true -
But my dream shuts with the night's shut,
And the fantasy retreats to the nightly gut..!...

Fall
Luke warm air sends calls
Sun retreats giving less heat
Fat squirrels take heed
Trees respond with golden leaves
Birds matriculate with calls...

His fate
And reduces' it
To a mere equation

From behind the garden shed sly eyes
observe the human condition. With tail held
high he retreats, pronouncing us unworthy of
further comtemplation...

Winter Is Coming
WINTER IS COMING
Dried leaf scratches its noisy way
Across my path.
Cat retreats deeper into the doorway
Out of the blistering wind.
Skyful of clouds, smell of snow.
Winter is coming....

Compassion sets hearts aflame,
Apathy, retreats!

As We Wait
Rain
Comes from
The gray skies
Melting more snow
One day at a time
Winter retreats
As we wait
To see
Spring

Those Man Made Skies
Sky dragons,
Mighty attractions,
Builders build,
Workers bleed
Diving floors,
Infinity pools
Imitating paradise?
Posh suites,
Modesty retreats
Trying to touch the clouds,
Are you immortal kings ?...

Light
bids me welcome
darkness retreats
Alas
poor death
thou must be alone
His gate
reopens
before yours has locked
The harp
of an Angel
—calling me home

Cycle of Color
Beauty awakens
As the icy tomb retreats
Free to bloom again
Petal lined faces
Stretch toward heavenly light
Basking in warm smiles
Shorter, cooler days
Embrace a quilted landscape
Time to sleep again...

Heavenly Retreats, Gardens
Fair image of a garden
As retreat, heavenly.
Conceived in common with all
Of a homesick longing.
Cool, moist, snail-led; far off
Life's heats; ways, rage-hasty.
To whose peace, but felt of it
The soul, as belonging....

Chasing Its Tail
Language has limits
when backed to the wall
Its truth self-defining
by sages et al.
Language deserts us
as meaning retreats
Its light self-diffusing
—when destiny speaks
