No more Captain’s Prize and no more Ladies’ Day

Again, The Moon Full
It was a clear night as the Moon looked down with apathy upon the dwellers on the city
Going about their important tasks with intense intent, feeling a sense of inner pity
Meaningful and yet oh so meaningless, trying to make sense of it all
Fit everything into the quantum soup, existence in this urban sprawl
Such strange ingredients to work with. Moon, what say you?

a bear with the antlers of an elk
slumbers on glacier ice
swimming in the arctic

elk-horn bear dances
dances the Earth apart
the glaciers fall into the water
causing the tides to surge

The Hidden Essence
At the time I was somewhat cold,
A child doing as it was told,
Sitting in the hut Dad just built,
Not so solid, a bit of tilt,
The rain dripping onto my head,
Family there, us being fed,
Avoiding spiders seen about,
Waiting until we could run out,
Back inside into our home warm,
Before drizzle turned into storm,
Yet now all I...

Painted sky
There were brush strokes of cloud
Against a watercolour of blue
And, the sun gilded wisps
With a honey drizzle hue
There was wonder in that canvas
Painted by Nature's hand
But, on occasion, tears would fall
Reminiscing a green & pleasant land

Darkness
Darkness is not always indicative of sadness, maybe you just forgot your flashlight.
Sunny days and clear skies do not reserve your spot on cloud nine, maybe you just felt inspired.
Feelings and reactions are never set in stone, they’re dynamic and free.

and yet the promise of it dissipated with the conversation I often expected.
As much as I’d love to over-describe, as some might expect me to, the weight of how I feel while concocting the narratives of Univerza, my writings mislead me.
I might say the campfire stories I told, which wrote themselves, are but a light in a pitch forest as I meander away ...

An ode to Mother Nature - The Great Giver of Life!
"Take those clothes off, you smell of outside". She quipped
A perplexing concept; an ineffable part of everyday life clinging to our clothes.
Clinging to our very beings.
From that first life affirming breath as we step out to conquer the day - in hopes of slaying invisible beasts, to the soft caress of the morning dew on bare skin.
Then comes the rustling of evergreen leaves, graduall...

Seasons - An Acrostic Poem
Sing and dance before the last leaf falls
Energy flows in swirls and zig zags
Assuage your worries and soak in the golden hues
Silent is the moon pirouetting across our night sky
Oh! Where did half our year go?
Notice the liminal spaces before and after the cold
Seasons will blow our pages to turn and turn.

Feeling inspired by flowers ....
Eager to rise
Searching for sun
Spiriling vines
Quick to hold on
Striking a pose
To soak up the rain
Then onwards
And upwards
She's moving again
Queen of the climbers
Flowers free flowing
Her petals define her
She'll never
Stop growing

: Alone in the Rain :
Walking in the rain all alone.
Tripping thru' nature's home.
On the stage of the field ahead,
the water drops perform.
The trees murmur, sing and rejoice.
With the rains they found their voice.
No keening wail in tempests wry,
but a happy voice in joyous cry,
of nature reborn.
Walking in the rain all alone.
I need no friend, for company.
I want no body to come...

Part of us
Something speaks from beyond
Something writhes alive
In each of us
Something pulls and breathes
Beyond our touch
They call it instinct
But it is magically distinct
And can lead, lead, lead
To something in your core
They call it power of the brain
But it’s so much more
It cannot be explained away
It cannot be spoken out of existence
They call it the mi...

Beauty in Bass Rock
A shining stone on the horizon.
In a stunning world, it does it’s bit.
You may find it surprising,
This beauty is just shit.
Or guano to be more correct,
Though crap it is to most.
It beckons me to come inspect,
Though I’d rather not get close.
It catches me slumped in blue,
When chuckles are more sparse.
Cheers me to think that such a view

Universal consciousness is omnipresent
— living vicariously, we too are one - and the same,
Having the time of our lives
all knowing— enlightened divine sparks

This is a way of life:
Anatomic amino acid building blocks chain letters,
into the complex double helix;
in our initials is a chemical signature—me and my significant other have between us—

For Sale
It’s rare to stumble across this:
Land left without a manicure,
Raw nature, standing untended
Or, at least, unchanged for a while,
Allowed to spread its arms and breathe,
To relax, far from the treadmill.
Behind the padlock on the gate,
A run-down, flaking, disused shed
Is masked by brambles, overgrown;
A rusty post clasped half-way up
By suffocating, unscythed grass.

Illustrious Demiurge
Once in a blue moon and many light years ago,
Otherworldly starseeds began to incarnate,
and add to the menageries of the Milky Way's sacral space
in-between you and I: What a “sui generis”-jagged siamese
piece of a memory
with our other half
—filling us in—
on where we’ve been our whole life
So as to make known, any preconceived notion; shown in its true light, and meant to be…the des...

Mules
Shoulders sore, propped up over an internally burning stomach
Raw eyes anchored to keys,
Each digital page was a blanketed field surrounded by summits.
It’s no crowned jewel, although sometimes peppered by obsidian flakes,
Numbers indicating trailheads with the promise of mountains and lakes.
Following the spine upwards, eyeing the words down
Pages were the ...
