Little pieces on my chain

Large room
Large mirror
me
naked,
naked back
tattooed
kissing faces
and sunspots
sunspots all over
my naked back

Slander like ivy,
Grows out of my mouth,
Maybe I shouldn't even if it grows anew.
Who am I to judge even if it's true.
Alone at the crossroads again,
a bug trapped in a jar,
I watch by Her window
for a world that refuses to appear.
Grand basilicas
built to papal false idols
of graven image -
to apostate relics from
pagan Rome and Babylon!
Great tiny apple
Consequence of branches untrimmed
Will anyone bother to learn
That you are
Defiantly delicious?
Knowledge
is
to thought
as
Thought
is
to intent
as
Intent
—forever ordains
(The New Room: March, 2021)
What's the point?
What's the use of a spark
that stubbornly refuses
to ignite a flame?

I have learned less
by imitation
and more by absorption
simply letting the sun speak to me
of light and dark mysteries
Brash the dark-sea sounds
stars steer the gleaming wave's blades
the impending clash
The Guard is
Guarding
Some people
Or
Some place
Or
Something
Valuable.
Who is
Guarding his
Back from
Traitors?
You can walk on the grass
You can climb in the trees
But don't mess with the flowers
You'll get stung by the bees.
Subtitle: A Zen Poem
In the bush
leaves whisper secrets
I hear no voice,
but the message is clear.
April tuned to Vivaldi's music,
Pour porto into your glass with ease.
Just open gas valve in the kitchen
And breathe...
over the mountain
those views ever so better
atop the clouds now

Written words by James Edward Lee Sr. 2018©
Free the spirit from the stone and the wood.
With chisel and mallet carve
whatever it tells you.
Spring of lotus births
Summer of forest flowers
Fall of colored warriors
Winter of lamentations
Seasons of tragic dance
Temperature dip
urban leaves turned
Autumn, sniffing around
for a place to settle
no Farmer's Market
in San Francisco today.
Blue flowers
Fragments of sky
Notions, emotions
Forget-me-nots sigh
Bring me blue flowers
When I die.
