A Letter To Salicious Crumb
Dear Salacious Crumb, where did you go?
I saw what Luke did to the sail barge,
as Leia jumped off I witnessed the blow;
Echoes of your ceremonious laugh
lingered after that swift disappearance;
Did Skywalker...

The Cycle 7: ProvidenceEndless machinations of celestial inclination
stretch, deform and incline.
The children’s imaginations ignore Domination.
Of only absence; it’s betrayal He finds.
Worship was briefly offered up high,
and it pleased their luminous Giant.
But then they turned to machines and...

Dear Jews Harphe had an inkling
as to what the world was
as to what the universe was
which is why
his sitting on the porch step
playing a beloved jews harp
was so poignant
among the other spheres
and as if, through...

The Cycle 6: TwinsFlourishing begins. In the balance
jewels sparkling green and blue.
Tentative fronds with daunting climb
from warming depths, ever upwards.
Scornful Giant rages above; life fuel.
Spiteful rising waters are smothering -
cooling; organic in purposeful desire.
Random chance repeats changes...

The Cycle 4: GodAnother age passes unmeasured.
Giant calms; in placid time waking
guilted warmth irradiates. Unbroken
calm aether heralds the next age.
Past embers cooled in God’s eye,
forgiveness of imagined betrayal.
But the turning cycle weighs not
amassed sincerity; the matter of energy.
Unworthy,...

Watchers?
Are there creatures of Dark Energy
Gliding through seas of Dark Matter
Weaving between the galaxies
As the Universe continues to scatter?
Did they oversee the bang of creation
Like shepherds mustering a flock
Were they there ever observing
Creations slowly...

The Cycle 3: HadeanReagent of absence, worshipped
envious desire; hatred a lonely herald.
Forever moving, forever reaching
fabled gods always out if reach.
Encroaching light focuses,
dusted halos give way
barren vista of circling rock.
Lonely envy rages. Waiting,
sleeping babes bring no joy.
The Waking...

The Cycle 2: DustDust pulls upon dust; pushes upon dust
and each drifting, spinning mote
collides; all drawing closer.
Meaningless time passes
and pursues; blindly following
The unbidden remnants
of endless darkened eons.
The cycle renews.
Distant lamps illuminate
the unbound; a tapestry weaving,
twisted looms...

The Cycle 1: ProtoDark Matters burn; a new age will beckon
Ancient plans turn; with creaking tendons
providence a blight, hidden in questions.
Made of the aether; not of the heavens.
Coalescing tangles and connections makes.
Spinning an eon; the darkness breaks
Shadows cast...

To celebrate them fearlessly
You are rarer

In the seas of seas swirling in my mind
I find myself alone in an ocean of space
Nothing but void surrounds me
As far as my soul can see
