Broken Soul
Gypsy Dec 2020
A long walk
Through the darkness,
A long walk
Through the darkest shadows
The corners of your soul  
Those parts
You've created
Those parts within
You can choose to fear them  
Repress them
Refuse to shine
You fear judgement and rejection
Choose to look towards the light
That healing,  
The only source of true beauty and love
To find those words that touch the soul before the mind
Find the touch that warms the heart from deep inside
So tired of separation, of division
Beneath all that dust and darkness
Hope
That far away abandoned part
The light
That love and compassion
Surrounded by the ashes of all that you once cherished

In A Shallow Cave
Gypsy Dec 2020
Onward -
Towards the derangement of our destiny
Enveloped in an emotional maelstrom
Tortured by shame
Exalted by visions
The love and the desperate
The shadows of moving puppets
Cast on walls of fire
Shut in this cave of our own bodies
Cleanse our doors of perception
The spell of the infinite
Break this narrow chamber of our cavern.

Man Machine
Gypsy Dec 2020
In the midst of the teeming multitudes
Conform and be dull
Your sweetness pounded out
Inside all those isolated machines
What secret compartments
An entire world
An unknown world
Born and dies in silence

The Slide
Gypsy Dec 2020
Bored, uninformed
Like an outdated explosion
Tense, musty,  forced silence
Going down the long slide -  voices without faces
Large scale versus, seemingly at random
So permanent, blank and true
We avoid them as unlucky places
Where promises are kept...

Ancient Torments
Gypsy Dec 2020
God made the Machine

His illusion

Bombarded with pseudo-realities
Manufactured by the media
By governments
Big corporations
By religious groups
Political groups
Sophisticated electronic mechanisms
Universes of the mind

I have a malformed public-duty gland
I must have a Guardian Idiot

On the surface
I was calm
In secret
I was waiting for something
His return
That measures the passage of time
This age-old faith of lovers and poets

A drunkard
Relives ancient torments
Feeds coins into the jukebox
He breathed
Hoped for nothing, yet, lived in expectation
The time of cruel miracles was not past
The dark blue outline of the crescent moon
Branded me with a mark of wildness
As if I belonged to ancient times

For a moment — an instant
I forgot about the horror of not belonging
While deep inside of me
The matrix, unfolded across that colorless void

In this age of rust
Reality, shaped by the forces that destroy it
Walked in dark places no others will enter
There - Souls
That never got weaned from the universe
Became an extension of it...
We are the same people our ancestors were
Lumbering across this landscape scooping up and eating everything in sight
Here on the edge of forever
Truth is a matter of the imagination
Wallpaper to our children
We -
Like
Gods who echo how mortals behave
Gods, a perfection to be emulated
Yet we share their flaws and foibles
We are humanlike
We are divine
Slowly fading in the narrow zone between fire and ice
With all our tenderness of heart
Lying naked in the palms of love.

Call Me Crazy
Gypsy Dec 2020
Living in my head

On this interstate Earth
A brief moment of absolute truth
I have heard the languages of the Apocalypse
Embraced that silence
Emerged out of a depth-less mystery
In a pretense of understanding
Borrowed time
Borrowed worlds
Borrowed eyes
In the gray light the blind dogs of the dark
Watched,
Our consumer culture slowly fading in the dismal sea
The rolling armies and the flames of battle
Cries of a hundred million souls
Like a black wing stretching over the Earth..

Everyone slides back into the Dark Ages
Adrift in the constant sea of trial & error
Yearning for ships to carry us home
When the world itself has ceased to exist
Crowned upon the ashen Sun
In a hangman’s noose
The darkness of the grave

Gypsy

Untitled
Gypsy Dec 2020
Who will **** us children forever
Cover the cheeks of this world with tears
With horror
With fear
To stand at the portals of the tomb,
The vestibule of eternity
Consigned to eternal damnation
A gulph of devouring flames
In and beyond oneself and the universe.

Dread
Gypsy Dec 2020
We live on a placid island of ignorance
In our black seas of infinity
A weird yearning for death
A crushing sense
Small and weak and selfish
To escape the unbearable feeling of becoming aware
A dare-devil rather than a Holy coward
Battling my fears
My pains
Conquering my uncertainties
A dread of stirrings in my soul
I considered forbidden and criminal
To paralyze and quake an individual
Flying out of the corrosive fire
In so deep a dread of silence
The silence of many
Silence multiplied
The silence of a crowd
Your dread  
This defeat of all Government
Within eyesight the unfinished
Written by Dante on the Gate of Hell
Shakes the earth beneath us

Like a roller-coaster ride
The sensation of it trickling away
The imperfect vagueness of human thought

Gypsy

Intangible Substance
Gypsy Dec 2020
This sensitive thread
This magic we would deem imagination
It affects the infected in an instant.
It takes but one word,
One thought,
One act to become immersed..

Sometimes an angel is found in the dark.

To stop it is hopeless.
To stifle it, demanding.
To think to master it is both improbable and pretentious

It is nature's drug
A poison we call emotion...
There is the sadness of division
This invisible hand that blinds our eyes  
Reigns our hearts  
Even among the Angels,
A Beauty
That's both ethereal and dark.

Gypsy

A Leper
Gypsy Dec 2020
A *****
Vagabond
Vague wars
For the body
For the soul
Medicine and philosophy
A vision of numbers
Progress...
Without pagan words,
Silence...
The lies upheld
This pastime of our princes of politics
What a fool am I
My impulses towards perfection
This marvelous charity
A witness to the glory
the reason
A *****
Seated among profane phantasmagoria

The Curse Of Exile
Gypsy Dec 2020
Hell's sumptuous sweat surrounds my soul..

Sacred was this space
Sacred were the sweet strains
The noble pipes
Like those champions of chivalry
I slipped into sleep
Plunged into the deep waters
Your jaws around my waist
A brain so wild
Our serpent *** betrayed
Love pierced its eyes
So much evil survives....

Gypsy

Crucified
Gypsy Dec 2020
The pain
Pleasure
The cutting away
The red flesh,  
Comforts
That forsaken longing

The last thought
Comes and goes
The dying breathe,  
Beached, in a dream
Worthy of an encore
That sustainable wanting - more

Crucified

Those dreams  
This coming together
Of all that makes a life
That easy chair of having
That greedy filled feeling
The lottery of birth
Laughs in your face

That cast off life you've worn
This hand me down existence
Past from generation to generation
All you've ever known
Never shiny Never new
The dead eyes of youth
Watch your every move
Covert your every wish

The king is dead
Long live the king

Confused World
Gypsy Dec 2020
Reality
A worthless idol
Propelled by hypocrisy and sycophancy
Into this abyss of sham,
The human creature
Selfish, abusive, vile
Society - cynical and ferocious
Traffickers in necessities
The mediocre and unscrupulous
The apotheosis of crooked politics
Imperfectly democratic
Greedy without end
Which refines the vices
Our souls corrupted in the days of Genesis
The pride of man's hopes
Has burdened itself with sadness


Gypsy

Earth Born
Gypsy Dec 2020
These are her spells
Which hope thinks infinite
To love and bear
Her disentangled doom
Whose power awakens oblivion
Spirits whose homes are flesh
Her earth born spells
Her Nature is that Universe
This pyramid of love
This harmonious soul
Her language - a perpetual Orphic song
A solid frost and sleep
This sea like forest
Around, within, above
Like spokes of some invisible wheel
Quivers, helms and spears
Ruin within ruin
Her mocking orbs harmony
Her spirit of the Earth, laid asleep
This gentle darkness
Music and light
Through empty space

Gypsy

If's Journey
Gypsy Dec 2020
If the aura of truth starts to wane
The shallow intentions or vile aspirations
The light of the sky begins to splinter
The causes of my blindness
Fearlessly pursuing insight
In this murky sea of complexity
Constant, in the center of it all
The unavoidable harshness of life..

Gypsy

Birth
Gypsy Dec 2020
Mother's fingers
Life's first gladness

I have crept back to see
The mother that smiles

When darkness wandered
Her strange heart beating

The cruel immortality of love.

Gypsy

Between the Interval
Gypsy Dec 2020
In the interval between reach and grasp
The absent presence of desire
The boundary of flesh and self
Between you and me.

Pearls To The Pigs
Gypsy Dec 2020
The world
A tragedy
Sharp sticks and cherry bombs
The soul of a clown
Provoked emotions
Beautiful sad songs
Arguments or expressions

People that know love
Like Juliet or Guinevere or Eloise
To burn - to be on fire
The intimacies of lives
Their wounds
Their walks with God
The sounds and movements of their bodies
Evokes a resonance
We become monuments to them
Liberate ourselves from our suffocating mantras

The heart
A strange beast
Hope
The Crystal **** of desire
The slave of the passions
It’s in the bones, it’s in the bones
It speaks in emotions
Walk with me through this dark valley
The parts of me that are used and broken
Through error
Through trial
Through fantasy and illusion

Recognition of an ancient love
The stirrings of the Spirit
The machinery of feelings
The eternal perspective
Emotional harmony with any old God
Your heart is the beacon
Your heart is the storm
A biography of memory
Just before a kiss
Dissolves into texture  
Incoherence and immersion
The pilots of grief
Creeping dreams that flew from the light

That old longing
Waiting inside me like snakes and toads
Rose in me like a flame
Love is undying,
Of that I feel certain
Our emotions are music  
Our bodies are instruments
The most magical thing
Faith
Empathy
Echoing back
Subtle vibrations from the realm of the senses

Earth...

Should be a World of Love...


Gypsy
50 · Dec 2020
A Completeness
Gypsy Dec 2020
You -  
Like an immortal
Golden and glistening in the candlelight
We kissed and caressed
Silk and song
Our souls intertwined
This pure mystic sensuality
Dripping with love
An ecstasy beyond words
Let it consume  our phantom hearts
As sky and forest scroll past
The green-eyed angel
Fell docile as a lamb
Our love for each other was seen
Where there was no world,
No land,
No god
Heaven or earth
Two bodies
The act of love
Trembling
Our passion
Cannot be quenched.
Should never be feared
For love can never be cured

Gypsy
49 · Dec 2020
Beyond Ulterior Lands
Gypsy Dec 2020
Between her lips and mine
Beyond the reach of hands
In some ulterior land
Love lingered a little while
And all our desire
Of dreams and days, and things unsaid
Smile for courtesy
Where the shadows and darkness meet
Love turned from us to die

Gypsy
49 · Dec 2020
The Path
Gypsy Dec 2020
An ocean of boundaries
The infinite totality of thinking
The umbilical conflict
Pregnant with the seed of purpose
A trivial slave
An obscure shadow!
Moving into the unknown

Those who travel but never really arrive...

Individually,
Inspired,
Imaginative
Their memory is myrrh
Their presence,
Frankincense and flowers.


Gypsy
Gypsy Dec 2020
Like a Moon that is dreaming
For the Earth and the stones
For deep still love
Those deserts of moss..
To live a sleepwalker
Hurled into darkness
Never the Angel
Like him I am consumed
On the alters of Solomon
I danced upon the waves
Seeped through all my seams..
The bitter reds of love
Bathing in the poem
Dreaming into birdless space
Across open spiral flaming skies..
The wanderers, poets
Love could have salvaged
Those nights slept, exiled


Gypsy
49 · Dec 2020
Surrender
Gypsy Dec 2020
The sweetness of giving....

The foreplay...

Folded secrets between her thighs
Like napkins
Concealed memories in the valley of her *******
She goes with the flow of life
A traveller
A Wildflower
A breath of *****

We - in love...
Upon our lips, a thousand lies

A moonlit beach
The starlit sea,
Surrender and Serenity
Our Spiritual path..
We from the old Magic...
From unseen times, faded memories
Many times upon our knees
We surrendered
Just loved -

Made life poetry
Listened through your screams
Simply naked Humanity...

Bring your empty cups
Your disappointments
Your failures.
Bring your betrayals
Your masks
All that
Dwells in you
Surrender to your own poverty,
Restore  -
The belief in your own guidance
Go within for answers
Nothing
Found in a book
Heard in a sermon

Give your soul
for love
Surrender to the Universe..
Lay your most precious possessions on  the table
And roll the dice...

Be the Art -The Artists....

My Distance
Gypsy Dec 2020
Her tonic...
The flower that I see
Fades into the nearest shadow

Would you like to know our future?
Mystery and awe
In a world without dragons
Enjoy,
Endure,
Survive
The soul, revealed
The world
The visible,
The invisible
A wide web of chaos

Do you really believe in destiny?
The colour of the moon
The dream
All the clichés
Wrapped in an enigma

Have you ever ached with the sheer beauty of it?
Rushed after her in pursuit
Where everything becomes essence..

Gypsy
48 · Dec 2020
There Be Dragons
Gypsy Dec 2020
I have seen a land shining with goodness
I have seen a land bright with truth
A land where peace reigns
Love like a fire from every hearth
Compassion flows like deep water over the land
Above comfort, pleasure or selfish gain
I have seen a land of ancient myths
The beginning of all peoples
Once beautiful and brave
Like light and cloud shadows
I have seen the dragons on the wind of morning.

Hearts Of The Tender
Gypsy Dec 2020
The tongue of the dumb
My silence and negligence
Did so vex and torment
A multitude of precious souls
Discerned no signs of sanctification
From their certain flames of hell
Our great plan for humanity
Daisies and Fairy Tales
Down in the nights of death,
Chaos
Disaster
The ineffable meanness of paddling
Who will **** us children forever
Cover the cheeks of this world with tears
With horror
With fear
To stand at these portals of the tomb,
The vestibule of eternity
Consigned to eternal damnation
A Gulph of devouring flames
In and beyond oneself and the Universe.

Gypsy

Beguile Me

A cruel wind the Coldest and Harshest of all

The Storyteller
Gypsy Dec 2020
Let Marble be the cold floor
upon which your memories walk.

As cities are fed our young,
To quench their thirst for life,
The machine, rusty and dying
Screams for more,
Cries out,
With its every last breath,
Death...

We push further into the abyss,
Deeper into oblivion,
Our only moon,
A tide,
Made ready for the turning...

Eyes,
Blind to all they see,
Watch forests fall,
Asphalt snakes,
Twist through jungles
All consuming,
Ever ready...

Drunken tales of gods
Pass over distilled lips,
Into a jungle of belief,
In these Taverns of futility,
Tongues,
Dripping wet.
Bring forth lies

Let history tell it all
Let history be your epitaph.

Face me
On this day of reckoning,
sing for me
Of a truth from within,
Let me hear your song,
Sung from a heart so true.
Sing,
As men once sang,
Of conquests,
Of maidens fair,
Bring from within,
To the forefront of your souls
An everlasting peace.

Let those with hearts speak,
Let the charity fanfare be silent,
Let man be one,
Let Nature's reality be reborn as a whole,
Those seeking power and wealth be cast aside.

Let us take back our fields,
Plant seeds,
To grow true,
Let the young run wild
On fields
Where the only sound,  the sound of life
Let the hunters be extinct,
Let the machines die,
Let man be king,
Woman be queen,
Seek truth,
Around fires of warmth.

Let the forests be our home,
A canvas of stars be our roof,
Let the whale sing of oceans,
Let the Eagle sing of skies,
Let mice sing of greatness
Let man be humble,
Trend softly.
Walk this earth,
On a tightrope of peace..

Let this be a warning,
Of mans mortality.
Let the storyteller reign supreme

His story ..
Long dead, long forgotten,
Pass through your realm of dreams

His stories tell of hunger -
His stories tell of War.

Drip Dried Souls
Gypsy Dec 2020
One more ride
Aboard this merry go round
Just another spin of the wheel
Another perfect plan
The mother of all schemes
The darkest heart wins it all
Drinks from the pleasures of profit
Rich by default

Give him his name
A pigeon-hole
The cunning of a serial killer
The perfect choice
This drug equalizer
The bass and treble of reality..

The disco divas of make belief
Crumble under the pressure

Bring him some of that pick and mix happiness
That over priced burden of pleasure
Join the line of escorts to his surrealistic pleasures
Watch his ****** suit stretch taking protection to the limit

From the corner
Eyes watching, masquerading as bored
His guitar gently wipes away a stray tear
The bedsit voodoo master fingers the fret
His bedsit altar
Swamped in ambience
His incense prayers
Follow old Cohen
Returning from the river
Memories of Suzanne, wet and worn
Begging for one last go
One more Electric Warrior
One more Dylan brew
For the road

Gypsy

Madness Stalked
Gypsy Dec 2020
These reasonable songs of savages
Seated beauty on its knee
Armed itself against justice
Contrived to purge the mind
To strangle it
Where all hearts opened towards the spirit
For the body and for the soul
Utterly forsaken - you who love the absence
That impulse for religion
Misfortune was its God
That look so lost, on a face so dead
Courage and destruction inspire these people
Their loathing - a motherless fatherland
Roaring debauchery of that madness disaster
Our extent of innocence
Life - a monstrous dose of venom
A glimpse of conversion - happiness
Mans melodious noble ambition

Gypsy

Without Thought
Gypsy Dec 2020
Eyes -
Everywhere,
Hands -
Waiting..

She wanders absentmindedly,
She lights a cigarette in a cafe,
Concern rivets her to the ground and self
Her wings are clipped
A thousand fine bonds tie her to the Earth
In this headiness of freedom and discovery
Her spirit in an empty sky
Unique and sovereign..

She must
Find the world anew
Become a creator,
A free movement of transcendence.

The Beauty Myth
Gypsy Dec 2020
I am searching for faith
The good and the beautiful
The mechanics of culture
Engineers of the soul
The bullet-headed many
Like their God of creation
Permanent and temporary
A lily in their medieval hand
This revolt against fate
Born of humiliation
This madness of art - Fickle, Freckled
Is the heart of man
His pillars of smoke
The face of the deep
Our primitive nothing
That grand perhaps
The big issue of our times

Grey Dull Sleep
Gypsy Dec 2020
Love,
Drips,
Gathers,
Stirs the quicksand
Whisper's in an artificial wilderness
Pale rain over this soundless dark
Your spittle eyes  
Emptied of poetry
This nightmare, a purpose more obscure
In a rapture of distress
Universal love and hope
That pilgrim soul in you
Your shadow deep
Your desert of the heart
With that rhythm, a song
Your intellectual disgrace
Tingles in the feet
Between each stroke of this grey dull sleep..

Gypsy

Predominate
Gypsy Dec 2020
That needle, that orient  light
Your sad decline
By despair of life
Its language, like a dream
The smiles resemblance of the past
Its spirit, now a fainter flow
Some dark oblivion - born to be forgot
From fame's neglected hand
Worn out -
Its vain pursuit of you.

A Slight Touch
Gypsy Dec 2020
Absinthe and *****
Coffee and cigarettes
A strange theory
A slight touch
So many personalities
The strange and the rare
A parallel instance
A philosophical allegory
The secret attraction
Spirit of beauty
Always alluding
Life and Reality
Children of flesh and blood

House of Love
Gypsy Dec 2020
I will face my reality
Embrace the Devouring
From off the potter's wheel
This experience of Existence

Give my soul, for love
Life's skin-deep love

- the miracle of surrender -
Through this cosmic dance
We see a river flowing
Her feminine wine
To tempt her towards passion
Then unbraid her body

Bathed in candlelight
Those brittle fragments
Every part of this soul
Every broken piece
Is a sublime chess game with -
The flow of life
The spiritual path
The gap between compassion...

Surrender...
Love’s darkest, deepest region...

Reality Collapsed
Gypsy Dec 2020
Imagine this formless, liquid abyss
When the world is taken back, and monsters rule the trees
Ineffable dimensions, depths upon depths
Stumbling into confusion
The first cosmic day
God's Child soul
Living words passing from generation to generation
In a tone tinged with melancholy
The moan of doves and the feathers of ecstasy
This fathomless, multi-dimensional matrix.
Searches the skies of the realms below.

The Darkest Day
Gypsy Dec 2020
I was hoeing
Words of tongue and pen
Despair, from the far side of absolute
The ceremony of consequences
So unequal, so unfair
I replaced one life with another
The rich man in his mansion
The poor man at his door
Baying for broken glass
The small change of illusions....

Betrayals of Purpose
Gypsy Dec 2020
The moments of silence are gone
We run from them into the rush of unimportant things
Unspoken painful whispers
Dwelling on all that we fear
Unwilling or unable
To be free of this modern machine
To part ways with all that is toxic
Hundreds and thousands of betrayals
How far we have veered from our primeval purpose
Turned and stayed sour
Cynical and judgmental
We widen this web technology
Race through our days
Increase the pressures
Stimulants to an exhausted nervous system
Between us and the immediate
A fire inside the charred heart of a burned-out teacher
Cut off  
From life's blessings
From our neighbors
From the wonders of nature
Slowly forgetting how to smile
Our silence has become a figure of speech
Hissing above the echoing vacuum.

Reflecting Reflections
Gypsy Dec 2020
The lukewarm insipid air
My childish soul
The slumbering contentment
This carefully preserved optimism
A wild longing
A rage against this toneless,
Flat,

Sterile life,
A Cathedral of Myself
The established order on their heads
This fat and prosperous brood of mediocrity...

Language Of Priorities
Gypsy Dec 2020
A generation away from extinction
You slaves of lonely self-abnegating sacrificial instincts
You slave of slaves
Aiding in the acquisition
Paying for existing
With terror and slaughter
Slaves of the capitalists
Mystic fear of consequences
No sense of faith
No sense of direction
A love of drudgery
Only the paranoid survive
Courted by incapacity..

So cryptic, almost meaningless.

Government murdered minds and spirit
With ruin upon ruin
As indefensible as infanticide
The blood of the seed
Ignorant and free
A volcano of revolution
In a state of civilization.

Hunger-Thump
Gypsy Dec 2020
This disgrace of civilization
All the loathsome nonsense
Under the cloak of war
I wrote poems
Engaged my deepest feelings
Urging me on toward zipless *****
To swallow the poison
Drop by drop
Assurance of our own worthiness to exist
The moral support,
The encouragement,
The relief
The sense of loneliness
These thorns held me tight
I would rather be torn to shreds
Holding heaven in my hands.
To conquer my ugliness of distinction
In this world of dogma...

Cease To Be Mind
Gypsy Dec 2020
Let reality be reality
Let things flow
We can grow
We can change
We can learn
Throw ourselves out into the open
We are exposed
No point in pretending
We,  outside our comfort zone
The space around us is beginning to grow vast....
Stored up for us like an inheritance
Have faith
This love is a strength
A blessing so large
You can travel far
Without having to step outside it
Cast a stone across the waters
And the Universe is on its way to being changed.

This Age of Beauty
Gypsy Dec 2020
In this age of beauty
We dance digital
An ongoing beat
Forever circling
Never ending.
We sing of genetics
Seek immortality
Like children seeking a future.
We tread paths
Once trodden by fools
With the sweep of a thought.
Brush aside reason..
We surf the net.
We build bigger and better
Displace nature
With castles of rubble
Nests of concrete,
For vulture-men
We devastate
Our souls  
Give begging bowls of hope
To those born
Or yet to come.
We swim puddles of greed.
We cut our noses to spite our faces.
We turn green to grey
Roses to dust.
We advertise pebbles as gold.
We are surplus to requirement...

Roadkill Morality
Gypsy Dec 2020
Invisible -  
Out in the open
The quiet -  
Your life - unlived
Hangs in this closet time
The door opens - closes
This life in-between - meaningless
You claw at spent moments
The seconds - minutes - hours
Wasted
The purpose you seek
Buried .. In a Paupers Grave
Bludgeoned to death...

In a dream of paradise
Upon a hill
The casual observer
Delivers a speech
Without thought
Line after line
Page after page
The words fall
Into this black hole mind...

The sanity of fury
From the insanity of War
Beckons...

Our Moby **** creation
This white Whale life
Devoid of purpose
Measured in road **** moments of fun and pleasure
This serial killer morality
Holds out hope, a flag of Humanity
On a barren Earth
A barren thought
Echoes across the Universe..

We are -
Have always been -
Lost

Humility! Humility
Gypsy Dec 2020
******* Disciples
Martyrs of Faith
I am privy to the secrets of the universe, its creator
It's magic and delicious power ....

Your imagined truths - that makes men cruel..

Your feigned aura of confidence
Like water it runs between your fingers
Your seeds of cockiness
Soiled in ignorance
The flames of controversy
Opinions
Mass disputes
Conflict
World news
Of persecution  .. progress .. profit ...
A steady arrogance in need of starvation

As a contented fish in its fish tank
Spawns a sense of intellectual humility
In the harmony of all that exists
A sea of infinite atoms
In the end
In the Blue Room
We are all connected

Gypsy Dec 2020
I will face my reality
Embrace the Devouring
This experience of Existence
From off the potter's wheel
Give my soul, for love
Your skin-deep love
It's an act of faith
My unconscious resistance
Then - the miracle of surrender
Through this cosmic dance
We see a river flowing
Her feminine wine
A moonlit beach
The starlit sea
A breath of *****
To tempt her towards passion
Then unbraided her body
Kissed her closed eyes
We hug
Bathed in candlelight
Those brittle fragments
Every part of this soul
Every broken piece
Is a sublime chess game with God
The flow of life
The spiritual path
The gap between compassion
Surrender
Is love’s darkest, deepest region
The faith in his hope
Whiter than the moon
The artists naked humanity.
