An Ode To Hearts

Nestled
within 
monumental 
versions
of herself,
among 
nights
spent
losing
doctrines,
she forgets
devout 
habits
for love
because 
fire 
speaks 
back 
to
her.

Kaleidoscope

A cluttered mess of random pieces
Multicolored multitudes
The many versions of you
Fitting perfectly together in brilliant patterns with each turn
Becoming more beautiful as the light flows in

Not Dandy But Beau

A dandy I’m not, although I’m named Beau
Waiting to date you, I’m end of the queue.
Believe me I ain’t
A devil or saint
But gladly I’ll be both versions for you.

Tired

I'm really tired
I've got to go
Hope that I didn't
Steal the show

Sleep was elusive
Most of last night
I won't even fly a kite
I'll dream and dream

Happy thoughts of soup
So many versions
So many flukes
What about you

Keep It Superficial

superficial  
don't delve deep
within  
focus on 
the external
surface 
no need to 
go any further  
limite knowladge 
no need to get to know
the inner person
no need to get to know
the past versions of self 
who truly cares
anyways

Joseph

Seventy five pounds
Aloe, Myrrh, linen wrapped 
him. 
Joseph's own, new tomb

One hundred pound weight
Aloe, Myrrh—linen wrapped 
him. 
Joseph's own, new tomb

Two versions I've seen. 
There's yet another version. 
Does't really matter?

Versions

The version you had of me 
Never existed 
Just an illusion 
You created.

The story never ends
I exist in different shades
Hidden behind masks
Or wearing tinted glasses.

Mind games
Spells  to entice 
Cards played right
A hidden fire ignites.

One Way Or Another

one way or another 
everything will just 
end up finding it's 
way back to were 
it all began 
back to the 
point when
alternate 
versions of
the self will
meet up 
once more 
to try and 
improve upon
the past and fail
each and every time
in the end

Poetry Conceived In Poem

Letters are skinned
in the memory
by whose hands
they work with them...
even versions
from the folds of the soul....
tear the physical body
through the portals of feelings
housed in the recondite...
So they practice all the time
to give birth to life poem... !

Mission

I slept in vision,
Wake up with a mission,
Of different versions,
The version to fulfill my vision,
he mission to uphold my vision,
The mission to make it in life,
The vision of excellence,
The versions of success,
…Integrity and landmark,
A footprint in a globe.

Emotional Keep Away

why are we 
playing a game 
of emotional
keep away 
where the new 
versions of the self 
are standing outside
of the cycle trying to
keep emotional attachments 
away from the old versions 
of the self which are standing 
trapped within the cycle of time 
gone by

The Chameleons

Bravery and fear
  not either or

But versions of…

Valor and shame
  brought heretofore

Mixed pieces of…

A riddle to confound
  the poet’s mum

As glory weds disdain…

Courage and fear
  not zero-sum

But oft times look the same

Mary, Mary, Not Quite

The oldest version dates from Tom Thumbs' 1744 songbook. Modern versions keeping with times, caused 'Mistress' to go dark. 'Cockle' is a seashell.

Mistress Mary sang like canary,
When they surround her stronghold,
Swiped silver bells, hid pearly shells, 
And pretties weigh all in gold.

Playing In Prime Time

Rad non-duality

Is simply the notion

That there is no one:

No separate one

To do or to think..

In other versions

That one seems to

Linger..albeit in 

Rarer and rarer forms

To finally disappear..

A story of lingering

And disappearance

Playing in prime time...

Tragical

His lover died
upon a cold, stone tomb floor,
poison on her lips.

How could this happen?
Shakespear miss-translated an
old Italian tale.

A fairy tale commits suicide.
Alternative versions collide,

sad endings multiply,
for those that watch
their own days play out,

and wonder.

Diamond Dreams

Tulips of morning just waked from amaranth dreams, meet glittering sun. Dogwood rose opens redly Pink dawn's jewel shines steady. Beautiful flowers respond to warmth's mute caress! They're a dream come true in varicolored versions 'ere dusk dreams, in beds again!

When We Shall Be New

When we Shall Be New
By David J Walker

Of this monastic island earth
we share in the birth of each
evolution of tomorrow 
embracing the diverse versions
of the same things 
we have known all along
We came
We learned
We left
And in the coming 
Mentored dawn
We shall be new
We will be gone
