Uncertain the journey,
Unsure which way to turn
Jump, dig, swim, burn,
Failure needs no witness,
The audience gathers anyway.

Floating through your element
To witness flowers
Blooming from my flaming glow,
More beautiful than you know.

Without Someone To Hold

what shivered 
out in the cold
thy naked soul
that we witness 
the autumn leaves 
have changed to gold
without someone to hold

It Made Me Smile

City in a fog
Morning’s bleary eyes open
Lone soul witness to 
Sixth-floor birds eye view, coffee
Whirring – warm in this moment.
Form: Tanka

Mother Nature

I Am Destruction Incarnate.
I Witness Your Worst Nightmares And Visit Them Upon You.
I Am The Cleansing Fire Of All Evil.
I Am Kaali

Memory

The joker
in the deck
The jester
holding court
The witness
at my trial
The voice
— of time itself
