The Well

A bitter well
taps the icy waters
from the sulphurous deep
slakes my thirst
makes my transformation
into the beast
complete.


Mediation

Lake wind
slakes still water's 
need for flight-- 
its envy of sea waves
devouring web-prints 
of seagulls, a 
temporary tableau
giving it wings 
where there
are none

While claws of full moon pierce the lanes, beware

For Hallow slakes on a witching twilight,

Ghoulish tricks from dark shadows choke the air

Engraving beams with ripped imprints of fright!

sweet music swing
     gypsy bells cheer
berry wines swoon
     lulls aloft wings 
warm’d honey cache
     slow’d lyric beats
plays fork’d tunes
     sweet music swing

skirt, tango, twirl
     ruddy flame aglow
tests muddy water
     swims under brows
slakes river lusts
     brews vivid scent 
‘round robin crest
     skirt, tango, twirl

SOUL SPEAK

SOUL SPEAK

How does my soul speak to me
Not harsh, yet with firm intent
Almost like a persistent melody
With a structure, so well-meant

Its purpose isn’t so clear at first
If troubled, will be seeking calm
Sensing stillness, slakes its thirst
Using peace as comforting balm

Yet every soul knows its identity
Deep rooted, never dispossessed
And tells me what’s meant to be
To be prepared for eternal rest
