scales that grew in the thick unknown
of past fields is put down as delicately
as a page of ancient text
in a thin shed of snakeskin that is
a shroud shrining what was has
and will emerged from elapse;
as are we, a shedding of time scales
in vast past dark fields of space;
a memory of an earlier and
still growing, both ancient
yet still infant, cosmos. -

Still as steps, I waited through the night for newborn thought to nurture. suddenly the music pounding from a passing car became the second heart of a pregnant mother beating on the outside my chest, and I became possessed like a father for the first time; in a sense it felt part of me. My fingers its arteries and my pen its pulse that could only…[Read more]

A cold wind came
from the distance I seen
in her eyes
before the last wave
died in her hands
softly on the shores of
her sea me soonFor months I blew from
room to room like dust
collecting in layers of time
across fields of tall grass
that form from the fray
at the ends of the last
memories we made.-
”before the last wave
died in her hands
softly on the shores ” and ”For months I blew from
room to room like dust” too beautiful. i don’t know how to say it, but you paint a feeling with your words.-

revision:
in your presence the company of all others goes out of business, and from the street of my stare only one lamp flares above the grand stairs of your gracious beauty of which my lips itch to kiss every step with the same busy tingle as a bee curating the first opened gallery of spring tulips. -

An old lady once told me, “Butterflies, they are like dream flowers, childhood dreams, which have broken loose from their stalks and escaped into the sunshine. Air and angels.”

pages of breath
leaf through air
dampened by the dew

I’ll always remember that last big wave…
of your hands off the shallow shores of my sea…
you soon, where a final blue goodbye bellowed deep below. -

As our eyes set,
high on your temples
my fingers prayed
in circles,
making wishes
before those
shooting tears
that fell
across the horizons
or your face. -

missing family I’ve never known.
The distance beckons. -

There are nights
I get kissclose,
laying my head
in between her deep,
soft breaths;
collecting her
exhale in my lungs
where I hold them
until I can’t breathe,
-
hoping my body will
store them away
in my heart. -
drew wrote about the word slouch 5 months, 2 weeks ago
My eyes hung heavy,
stepping down their stare
case into a brewery
of tears, aged in
stubbornness;
not to be opened
until sour shame
ferments into
an honest
sweet sorry.

I’m Sorry. -

My awe climbed its highest branch and sat still on the edge of her last thought that unleashed from out of her mouth like lions from slumber and traced around each body in the crowd weary of defeat, calling each person by the names of the dead people they always wished they could be, calling [...]
