Ataraxia

Let me hear wind's voice
     When it dance with grace
          Upon the leaves of the trees

Cantrip

Under my shelter I hide, I flee
For the burdens amidst fetters me unfree
I ask, I wonder-questions resound
Of hypnopompic anxiety; the chains I'm bound

Where will I go, what will I do?
These days brought agony-inviting ado
Which will I choose, where will I stand:
For the passion or for the future at hand?

Beneath my doubts, my hope thaws within
The solace of desire-my calling's a sin!
Still I wander like a pilgrim lost
If this path I'm to trod will outcry the cost

Yet the whispers of lust to do what I want
Hinders the fear: a devouring chant
To be at my best, to pursue my craft
This is the cantrip, an unveiling draft

But what of my tomorrow, what of my coming years?
If everyone I hold dear ask that I hear
The inherent vision for me let be done
In prudence and intellect-an educated man

I grasp the air though it shatters my sanity
The key at its absence, my mind in mutiny
To where shall my days, my mission be spilled?
To where will my spirit, my existence fulfilled?

I ask of You, the One whom answers divine
Enlighten my despair, rescue this shadowed child!
Alas, tired in my shelter I can't hide, I can't flee
For the burdens amidst still fetters me unfree…

Midnight Psalm

The sun's reflection sparks

      As I embrace its sanctified shining...

Ars Labia

I swam in ecstasy for that fire.
Seized me nigh, lo, sweet body's ire
Drowning me 'neath hell's desire.
Let lips dim innocence
In foreplay's cadence
Tis flesh is yours
Forge our warmth;
Devour
Me!

Waiting

I ought to have 
a penny for my thought 
Even if its not much worth.

A Bellman Harks Temper

Isn't it amazing
   to reap what you sow?
      Now harvest. Before, plow.

Reflection (Englyn)

Time's memento unfolds a thousand lore;
Soul's ode is forged, behold!
As tides approach, a tale's told
Adrift every spirit's mold.
