Premium Member S Memo

I treasure that which cannot be found.
The antecedent at a juncture.
Your face laying on my timeline.
A just God somewhere.


Timeline

In a blink of an eye,

the Future rushes in,

becomes the Present

that bursts like a bubble,

becomes the Past,

and is forever gone!

Premium Member Life and Death

Life and death

Are not two..

The story of these  

Finds a timeline..

Start and stop..

The separation

Necessary for 

A story of life...

Timeline

Tell me when
I will see
My great departure
Even if I'm not prepared
Long have I waited
In great despair
Not knowing  Lord
Everything I will go through

Premium Member Her Choice Her Pace Her Timeline

truth may take a while to reveal herself
But she will appear eventually
Either by light of sun or dark of moon
Her choice, her pace, her timeline
her decision

Preset Order

Nightfall and daytime,
Dusk and dawn,
Sunshine and night gloom,
He calls them to order, 
He dictates their timeline.

Premium Member Simultaneity of life and death

The simultaneity

Of life and death

May appear as

A timeline of life..

This is simply

Just a story which

May tag time as an

Illusionary veil of

The simultaneity...

Premium Member Timelines Intersecting

There is 

An apparent

Lifestory 

Which seems to

Fill a timeline..

Life stories

Intersecting 

With conflict and

Peace and claiming

Understandings..

Apparently...

Forsee Map of Dreams

My way back home, follow the moon
I see shadows in the dark, follow the moon
Ahead of the timeline,  follow the moon
Bow to him, he's the on, follow the moon
Full or half when it's there
follow the moon

Timelines

All my hope is in that other timeline. 

The timeline that grew up beside me like a friendly neighbor. 

I have moved past what I thought was fate. 

Surrounded by old wishes-

That have turned into new promises.

New Age Fight Club

I broke myself on your busy mischief
Impaled my heart in community spaces
Rearranged my timeline and still wait

Now, as ever seeing the carnival tricks
Elbows flash, i'm ready for the quick hit
I will never submit or quit

You Are Now My Forgotten Password

After unfriending you
from my life,
I am scrolling down 
a fresh timeline...
your posts are not appearing in it...
My dreams are not streaming 
your videos anymore...
And heart has promised not to tweet about you...

Premium Member Timeline Tableau

pleated mountains peaks
     clockwork waterfalls
       chiseled crevices
  pressure etched artwork
      cascading timeline
         gliding the dial

Final Gift

When the timeline
of days and nights becoming scarce
finally we will be nothing...
We will have nothing...
You still won't be alone...
Fear not... it will remain for you
as a consolation, all
my eternity of silence...

Art of My Own

I'm in no way an artist.
My eyes burning.
But my tears are the paint, 
Lashes the brush,
My bed sheets the canvass.
My eyes burn.
Tears flood.
Mind shut.
While the painting unfolds in front of me. 
A timeline of such....

The Rain Fell

Clouds withhold
tears
of Heaven’s
delivery

Thunder
marks a timeline
of new
discovery

Lightning 
the force
that rebrands 
our arrival

Flooding
our existence
in memory
— alluvial

Premium Member Illiquid New Moon

signal of approaching cataclysm?
we can't see the gauntlet
it's past the cunning poison
a villain of his own timeline

piqued by an illiquid New Moon
Level 2 risk for severe stratagems
Earth braces for an apocalyptic slap
this time it could break

Good Day

The only good day is a day that  is ended 
Newdays bring on new threats 
New threats new stress
New stress new diseases 
New diseases a chance of death 
And on a long enough timeline 
Death brings a bad day 
The only good day is a  day that is ended

Premium Member Life

(“Nonbinary”, 2023, original encaustic)

On the timeline of Life
Past, present and future
All interpenetrate
Back and forth, forth and back
Constantly adjusting and upgrading
Experience with experience
In a loop
Möbius could clearly see.

Premium Member Scar Tissue

Creature claw marks crisscrossing,
Reminders on your skin
A post-it timeline 
Of fear and then
You climb the grapevine
To your vices, apprehend
It all entices again
This prophecy,
Of the knife and me, 
Feels like it's gonna be
As pure as milk and honey

Timeline

May your days be full of memories
the kind you like to share
May your weeks be full of peace and joy
by showing that you care
And as each month slowly passes
and turns into a year
Always remember the ones who love you
who are no longer here

Paris, Seven Months From Now

then you rushed into the leafy courtyard late
like you’d just been thrown in by some hand
but we hadn’t actually arranged it yet 
I knew immediately the timeline was 
malfunctioning, still, I went with it anyway
for old time sake and the yesterdays to come

Timeline

I cry without knowing,

Sadness seems to cloud my pain.

Love is a hopeless dream,

Death wheels its self-gain.

Emotional daggers thrown left and 
right,

Life flips for endless time

War starts as a sick joke.

Peace begins a picture in a child's 
mind.
