A pure weep choking the steadfast ground
None cast the symmetry....

My hand on your shoulder
Soft skin
Soft touch
My anchor to reality
My lifeline, my touchstone
My source of stability
My grasp of solid ground
Peace, calm, safety and light
My hand
On your shoulder....

I'm alone
No mourn I've for it at noon,
at afternoon in nasal groan.

 And I'm alone,
No mourn for it at evening, 
at night in dark rattling bone. 

And alone I'm
Through all born I feel touchstone
at shining life in active zone.

In this world
with changing masks on
all measured, with a touchstone

People judges
and are judged
on mere words, mugged

I am no saint
nor a devil
a mere human, being civil

How i yearn
and burn
to be free and just be me!!!

great poetry Dave ole mate,
the inner soul protects your fate,
something holds my wrist,
when i try, 
heal remote cancer,
and i cry, 
when death wins the debate,
the karmic touchstone gate,
release by death,
comes late...
but we try :(

Upon said corridors heard
Within these walls, stirred
Throw them to the sky
Good Boy Psycho dead

Corridors Epiphany, no dread
Shine horizons, on Half Moon Meadow
Eventual be
Sleeping Giants

When Shadows Fall

The City Sleeps.



For Moo xx

Without Touchstone, I just couldn't xx...

Remastered memories
renovated compromises
Say thy brother's name

Touchstone compadres
Manifest of broken years
Be thy brother's keeper

Astral time prisms
empirical passengers
Keep thy brother's heart

Light years of reverence
99 flavors of forever
Hold thy brother in arms

Detour ahead----
Over the rainbow realm...

It once was a dream,
To manifest this life that
Couldn't be seen
Struggling to rise
But
Seamlessly falling seemed to be
The touchstone
Everyday foreseen
Gloomy days
With the sun shining bright
Low skies but high nights
To think with just a thought
May lead to a prosperous life
Action if lacking no outcome will come
Show the universe you deserve it
Earn the wealth that shall come

Hark, what force formidable of a creature That proceeds thy self is this?
Reckon and wreckin' my heart
Doth not hath resist !
Dawn to Dusk my soul requite,
Waining and waxing far from slumbering relaxed respite.
Ill-fated mine heart was from the start,
That worn it was on thy sleeve everyday,
Forelorned my touchstone ever so frayed,
And so it came to pass,
Time would not erode the memory
Of your gentle smile ever-last....

Love is my passion
Love is my creed
Love is my touchstone
Love is all that I need.

Without love there is no reason
for each new day, new year, new season.

From the day we are born
Till the day we depart
Love is there buried deep in our hearts.

So starting today, lets make a pact
That love will decide the way that we act.
Give love to your neighbors, brother and kin
And then maybe more love will start to come in....

Give love to you neighbor, brother and kin
Then maybe more love will find it's way in....

You're the only thing that seems real 
By Michelle Morris 
13/08/2020

You're the only thing that seems real 
in this crazy universe;
A touchstone of pure when 
everything is in reverse... 

I look into your eyes and see 
my love for you returned;
Of passion and friendship that 
will continue to burn... 

Like a cleansing flame
that cannot be doused;
We're soulmates together always,
like the fairy tales espouse...
