Pose a point at precisely
here, a moment mentally
a true once,
any once, but really,
realized and reified, made

mere mind matter, rare
--- just a seed to consider

What once grasped never
once lets go?

When is a lure
benign, re-coknown safe,

lacking hook, line and sinker,
have you ever seen the banner
of the Company

the fabled red. white and blue,
thirteen red and white stripes,
with a rectangle of blue, right,

next to the pole,
where children gathered
when America was repenting,

for believing lies about Why Vietnam,

or for not once giving a dam', tinker
thinking once more… eh, one reader

makes the whole weform blossom


As a weform in an ag arrangement,
agriculturally aware of most ways
bits and pieces all fit reality before
lack of peace
ever was a problem, like,
no worries, mate, if this is hell,
well, it ain't for every sorta bloke.

But, kids who raised birds, even
city kids, who tried pigeon keeping,
such kids knew, life is hard to start,

from the egg on, life is hard,
but
yeah, but,

in truth, it's not cruel.

If there was Hell for stupidity,
that, used to be a make believe,
that justified much cruelty duty,
duty to say you know it must be,
so, or else, you know,

oh… original chata, missed,
on second look,
by recognition,

spark ignorance forgiveness,
go again, think harder, push
re al weform
Individuation,
self as not another,
self as one counter balanced,

upright bipedal five point body,
container of life support facility

the medium of thought and feeling,
the media holding learning generally,

the tree of knowledge, a good tree,
capable of holding wrong ideas without

means to balance whying upon without
some inner knack in tool using mankind
that makes us think more effectually,
toward one's own usefullness to life,

in truth, with no dissembling or disguised advantage to the authority
granted children's confidence, in stories

told with the intention of making believers, carry the message,
information, shaped to support
the colonial power allowing teaching
of new truths to children reared
to serve defeated authorized
institutions of proper order
among unequal mankinds.

In the hall, on the wall,
a mass produced poster printed
using some serifed italic type face,

a font that leans right, forward,
onward reining the reader, forcing
eyes to discern line upon line, a poem,

purchased as a gift to my spirit, a thanks,
perhaps for leading any to read Frost,
proclaiming the different ends

arrived
acausally
at

unless,
in truth, the path less traveled by
always makes each traveler privy
to the way truth makes life take,

make believe we still pretend,
while we examine worth
of your attention paid

me, the finisher of my generic faith,
substitute comfort
with knowledge, we used

to tune to freedom in windform

the possession of which remains,
in right Christian excuses for the Cross,
taking knowledge fruits from sacred texts

long hidden, long forsaken, forgotten

forgivably, long sense, as general truth
ignorance becomes in madding crowds,

good thing all of Jesus prayers
got answered, ignorance
gits forgiven, ever' time.

------------------------

Few care who dares whom,
but wise persons past discerned,

as do birds or any energy users do,
discern seed from stone, sensing use
for each… seed
or each pebble, picked
as hard enough to polish,

diamond on diamond, gemstone wise. Yeh

said, how do gizzards work, me to we,

as we are a pair morphically resonating,

peace bubbles, bits
of wonder if made
what ifs we did and did not claim, we
rethinkt a thunk link,
we realized hens do have teeth,
eschewed rural riddle, riddles well,
to a chance, tasted what the cunningest
creature in Genisis saw as good to eat,

the first seer is a she, Wisdom, principle thing,
soother of the first ever ego manifesting being,
in perfect balanced still life reignited cognition,

as that which opens the eyes, to see,
Hosea, hidden deep in the Bible, see,
-people perish for lack of science used
conscientiously,
with knowing
twice… concarne mind y spiritus we
form information
from the edge

of next, thinking like birds,
with some seed needing gizzardry

to loose it's energy for egging activity.

Ag me on, as a spirit in a mindform,
pushing things along the winding minds
gut most yoghurt fed fibrous relaxative

gnoshit funny when it lets out, like
a gaseous weform from a slow belly.

Whew. We got this far, knowing for sure,
not only Cretans, but all men who misquote
Epimenides know, all men are liars,

who can keep from it with some effort.
There us a fun book series called Heritic Fishing, I took the bait.

...Open your eyes, to me.

I want to spiral, around you,
beyond the dark, infinite wall.
I want to transcend, your physical;
to lure you on, and away
into a purple field, of Freyja's daisies
with nimble, metaphysical fingers--
beckoning beyond,
the starry curtain,
of crystalline dreams.

Will you let my arms,
circle your Roman neck,
like verdant vines
and pull you further, in?

Can you feel my smile,
sun the slant,
of your beloved cheek,
and can you photosynthesize
into new life, with me
even as you re-seed, in darkness?

I want to whisper,
sweet words:
devotion, and desire
into the well, of your ear...
until they roar, and pound
with the sacred force,
of white rapids...

swollen to riptides,
in the conch shell,
of your churning mind.

I want to weave, around your flesh
and speak, a love spell
into your shifting, Lycan eyes.
An incantation, that plays,
with the blue ghost, of your flame,
and ignites, the candle of your soul,
on its breathy sighs...

...melodic tones.

There is no heart,
quite like yours.
It pulses, beneath my hand,
like drums, of war.
Gladiator...

take me, to your Colosseum.

I want to wander
the upper echelon,
of its throbbing chambers.
I want to feel you ache, for me
in your left ventricle...
soft, warm flesh,
perfectly preserved, in golden amber.

I want to gaze,
into the blinding sun,
until my eyes, tear...
closer to heaven,
than ever I've been.  

Darling, what do you see,
when you look at me?
Salvation,
or ruin?
Vikingr longships...

or Valhalla...?

I pray...that one day...
you will take my soft hand,
into the Titan strength, of yours,
and not perceive it,
as an instrument
in the ruin, and wreckage, of you.

I ardently pray, that, one day...
you'll come, to bathe
in the Baltic blue, of my eyes...

and never fear, again,
that they could drown you.











...Let me take you...home.

We get married now
Me want,me take, me want you
You take my hand too?
A feel good haiku my and my wife made one week before our wedding day!

I want to look into your eyes
And roll in them all days and nights.
I see my spring in them and actually
I miss them now so very much!

My whole body shudders once,
As I remember your sweet touching.
I know you'll never back again
And I will have exactly nothing

But noble profile, gentle look,
Your mellow voice and sensual lips.
I'm sorry that I can't bring back
Those magic eyes and so blessed whims.
Thank you for reading this love poem! 💖

I don't speak profit and greed.
I only speak wildness and stillness.
I speak a kind of human
Only few will understand.

If you speak dragon-fly,
If you act forest fae,
I want you in my crew
Of magic creatures!
i was called a witch
more than once
for wanting to craft potions,
to erase the wounds
love left behind.

i burned its letters,
willed the wind
to carry off the pain,
lit candles
to hush the tears
that fell like rain.

i never prayed to the devil —
only for myself
to grow stronger,
composed,
untamed.

the spell took hold,
i can entertain
your idea of a witch.
maybe i am.
but if you plan to burn me,
you’d better do it
while you can.
this one is about the magic of surviving what was meant to destroy you.
