I can't decide how I love you best
or when?
In company of your men, unbridled
purely reckless
Refinements made by this one
loosened and defunct
Your eyes cast piercing glimpses through smoke
lost of its blood and jungles
now clouds and slivers of truth and lies

I can't decide how I love you best
or when?
Alone.
Studying the image of yourself.
Vulnerable, disastrous
Content
Pressed by grit and shaken by the tumult of life's waves
you lay upon the rock
anxiety of change seethes below,
while you befriend the sun

I can't decide how I love you best
or when?
I know I loved you as a child.
Sweet on dreams and limitless
you and this world were separate
yet,
youth was weaned by earth's wilderness

So you trusted this and ran and flew from inhibitions
they surmised

9/10/08

Where I come from, we eat strawberries by the fence
The wind by the shore blows into your face
and the waves from the sea blanket your legs always
Where I come from, the lands weave together, their edges tucked into mountains
The sun is always painting its mural across the sky,
emboldened, the colors are raw and shatter into pieces
at times when the sun feels displaced, the painting seems so vulnerable
My minds resolve
I am shifting and stretching for comfort
This weight in my hands
hashed into my eyes
my bonds to break
My eyes scan and fly over it all
My body,
strenuous peace
my body between the blanketing sun and hallow ground
flowing between stones and rails and bones

Buildings

You'd never miss the rocks
solitary, shameless
barbarians of the earth and mockers of time
stubborn like you and I
without any trace of reserve
At least you escaped the wild
No longer rooted to the ground
weighted by no man's law
that conviction of harmony
No, you surpassed these stoic giants
and you carved victory into their flesh
yet still you grovel, still in your darkness your inferior
So hide
Build into the grace you refuted
sculpt tremorous beasts that spout the thirsts of the earth
and crown these upon you protector
these silent bodies
that hold you ambitions
and glower in your humility

Slumping correctly mid hall
I stare halfheartedly at a stretched flight of gumtarred stairs and watch my body melt and ooze to the bottom of the room to where the grey suit makes piercing points that pain my spirit, I ignore and ride the steps in hopes of a bumpy massage that begs my thoughts to CEASE

To the world
hear me now
lioness with ember eyes
the dawn will break with my roar

feel this flesh
seared by space and sun
limits of the sky and the bonds that lie
this is the body that knows none

touch of dark
in the way age knows
light is tenfold treacherous
to tip the scales, I slight in both

Hunt for me
I scour but famish never of hunger
rampant, fervor of life
my soul, my loyal traveler

Anticipate intensely
I will bare that which bares me
engorge upon the mass
succumb and I will become

WELCOME THE FALL

Fall and turning leaves
Fall feelings of fullness
denouement of summer
daze of what went on
a sigh of relief for winter comforts soon

Think of evening breeze
slight chills and soft sweaters
hands wrapping and wrapped by
the heat of earth's fruit

sip on a velvety mocha
chocolate sultry with espresso bite
Fall fullness, fill your soul
with the turning of leaves
and watch the moon

Morning Glow

Morning glow
I awoke to sounds
trains calling, chasing the endless
the clutter of steel surrounding the lonely
the race across the bridge gate

morning glow
moon setting on deep ceylon
that runs awash
making depths in waves
running into th sublime of the dark

morning glow
I crave the night, the still
to watch the play of light
to reverberate, to pour my hearts fill

but the birds are taking flight
the sun tears gold and red into my blue
and it too
it too is restless for living
