The morning mist conceals the birds,
yet still their lilting song
is heard.
I lay a while beneath my shroud
listening to the
warbling cloud.
The coffee cup drains itself
while topping up my
fickle health.
From radio's reluctant news
blooms yesterday's
emerging bruise...
to spread its spill like rancid oil
toward the day
as if to sp...

Harken
Words emerged from alphabets
born of tongues the world forgets,
hieroglyphics from a wall
their echo sent to teach us all.
The documented "Rites of Spring"
the histories that they danced within,
so frantic that they lost all breath
their language spoke itself to death.
Yet here we stand at Babel’s Gate,
tongues still tied, is it too late?
to learn from...

Tragic Bus
The bus is double decked for fear
that those below might come too near,
and break the spell of motions peace
where trials and tribulations cease.
I float above the addled Streets
on clouds of ruined ragged seats,
I see the penned in office slaves
computer screens, like headstoned graves...
Traversing through this fashioned feast
I'm swallowed by some other...

Shell
In the pit of me
my own epitome,
within which lies
the wasted grit of me.
From pearl to sand
the sea made land,
washed up and used
a gift abused.
The clam prised wide,
hollow inside,
pearlescent sheen
of what had been.
The jagged edge
remains to tell,
that trusted pledge
can be but shell.

Four Stations
Four Stations,
stumbling steps,
inspiration,
life’s precepts.
The hand of peace,
a step toward,
that distance cease
with loves reward.
Four Stations,
walking tall,
realisation,
breaks our fall.
Through perilous night
our journey’s wind,
yet we shed light
when we are kind.
There are numerous accounts of "The Stations of T...

Deficit
Dreams slither away from me.
Beneath sheets of layered retreat
they rise as conjured wishes,
then fall like chances lost.
Memory seeks what eyes can't see.
Invented glories the lies of conceit
history revised where hits were misses,
the balance outstanding, no matter the cost.

Songs to lift a heart
Sometimes like a cat poetry refuses to leave the tree,
we know it isn't truly stuck, it's up there being free.
Among the leaves and branches with jumbled words and winds
that make no sense to anyone unless the songbird sings...
sometimes soft and sometimes shrill it wisps the flailing breeze
to lift and craft within its will a moment sent to please.
All things of form h...
