Harbinger of death Arrived on sultry wings; Blessing of the winds Frayed and torn, Receiver of the ill and Mistress to the moon (A kiss from eternal worlds) In time of fire and flood; Dressed in a dusky robe, Out from the deeper woods On the earliest day of the year. It’s a dream, they keep In false eyes, memories Of forgotten stars On horizon’s edge; Fluttering like a great wave, Floating between two Unknowns, fierce And enduring.

A. odorata
When will this opportunity end (Toward the river bend) So that I may unbond myself From this juniper tree, and stop gasping For air? "Soon enough" says The energy dispersed among Every pulsating and non pulsating particle/emotion. An infinite amount more than The number of broken rocks on earth, surely, though significantly cooler. Answer) it depends, though it may not intend (I'd bet somewhere between +/- 100 billion years) But my god, what a view!

Entropy's end
Through the leaves a fusion in my eyes summer's light embraced within and On the breeze the warmth lingers Like a kiss suddenly On humbled mountains; See there, the old trodden path of the stars? The cold black wings of bats, emerging from the earth? I feel it in my bones As I lie in the dust I see it in my dreams those broken memories of Horizons of unbounded entropy ever unfolding Like a flower even Beyond the final petal; Summer is, sweet and bold And full of life Sharper than a knife And equally as clean Hanging there waist side Ready for a fight.

Summers evenings wings
Twenty hundo on the brass tho and they wonder why I flash glo ******* walking through the grass low and they wonder why they crass, tho. Ate some sea food and an *** hole Now I'm swimming is some glass snow Brain so stirred, I'm talking fast slow Starry night, just like a Van Gogh. Like the moon, I'm casting shadow Laced with oil colored pastel Call me empty, I'm a vast shell Alexander, call me Graham Bell.

This is why
My bones, know this mountain range My heart beats like an owl’s wing; Soft, at the ending of a day. Summer is fading, surely Over the empty scabs of spring And yet, a few flowers remain; Penstemons and asters Though their petals litter the sand Like forgotten feathers. Who then, calls on the wind The moon, to transfer the dead To the field of stars? Who then, With strong bones, tends To the living. Above, on the bleeding cliffs Petroglyphs illuminate in the sunset, I see them, the remaining images, linger In the last light.

Us, surely
This star dust is litter The last tree is hope I held my eyes to the cold light Of a burning cigarette. A man with no legs A mountain full of rain Who then comes here Without any pain? Grasp all the open empty branches of the mind; Keep all that is wasted In the warm sands of time. Beyond the farthest horizon Past all the known light; Grows then, a simple memory Of a sudden, single spark.

the eyes
Beside the stream of eternity, the long cliffs march into the unknown; Every rock and pebble sings Thunderous and wild. Within the forest of time On branches of moss and ivy Sits the old ancient owl; Waiting for the small quiver Of a mouse in hazy moonshadow. Beyond the gardens of stars An emptiness quakes and yearns For flowers to be born For mountains to break and bleed And sing and cry.

Deeper Mountains
The harbinger of death Arrives in summer On sultry wings, A blessing of the winds Frayed and torn, Receiver of the ill and Mistress to the moon (A kiss from eternal worlds) In the time of fire and flood Dressed in a dusky robe Appears out of the deeper And darkest woods On the earliest day of the year. It’s a dream, they keep In false eyes, memories Of forgotten stars On horizon’s edge Fluttering like a great wave Floating between two Unknowns, fierce And enduring.

Fire and Flood
Tree limbs on moon beams Leaps so frightfully to the edge Of ever existence, only then Will the shadows finally fear us. Look at the stars, the space between The owl and the deeper woods, why Then would one begin to say That this day, is far too short? But a snake in the weeds, beside the barn, sliding away down the grassy wood.

In the Space of Time
The red fox That Lewis Shot at And missed. A river That snaked Away into Endless mountains. Beyond smoke Bird wings Floated between Broken desires. And deeper In brush The shadow Leaped away.
