I see myself through the mirrors of others
I paint myself with the hairs from your thought
And though the colours run, they
May not as fast as me.

I skate, with lack of traction
Ago on hoops of skin
Let me be, let me be,
To dance a little less today.

Well together,
Ill apart
You are my disease
For refusing to be with me.

Could you hear me
If I shouted?
Would you look up, even a little,
If I cried out for you in the night?

I don't think so, dear
I don't think, anymore.

I make her laugh
I suppose
I make her fear death
When her heart flutters.

Wings on beaten brows
Heavy with thump thump thump
And the rocking
Of a pianist
Heavy at his keys
Unlocking you
That laugh that you are in me.

Today, I sorrow
For the smiles I didn't see
For the thumps and piano keys
I made without hoping
Without being there.
You smile from afar,
I still feel it

You laugh from afar
I still flutter
You and me
Make music through open teeth
Laugh
Snort
Thump.

We all deserve to have our story to brag about
We all are just trying to stumble through this human fever,
Together.

So,
Hush now, ignorant blessing
Float forward, a smoky charcoal dream
So that we may one day,
Eat our visions.

Well,
Let the whole world dine!
Together

Down in the depths
Of the fallen thistles of my
Jewel tree, we
Could not be baubles,

A tradition, set in chemical marble
As we smoke closer together
Blue, red, green
All the colours of a
Real crack

Don't feel for me
I think I have that side covered;
Just know,
Know what I feel for you
And how words are lazy servants.

Fly, dove on stiff wings,
Dive, depths of swirl,
Log on fire hearth and heart
Believe me,
Like I believe you

Don't feel,
Know,
Know I don't care about presents from catalogues anymore
For
You can't wrap what you feel in paper
Just in secrets...

Well no more.

We're all nervous
We're all scared
We don't move our limbs
Like ribcage tabletops, hearts like coasters
We cry
Varnish tears
And prop
Fists
On our brazen wood.

We're all anxious
We all need breath
To twist our tongues to words
And our lips to a grimace
Fooling no one,
But the ones who don't care.

And we all shine
Like carbon diamonds
Under the pack of a thousand years of dirt
We're not normal
But,
We,
We so are.

We are so alone,
Together.

The sounds of those clear mountain waters
rushing down the hill
over the rocks
blessing...everything
until finally they find their way home.

Only then.
after that sleigh ride of Delight,
Those easy joyful rapids
of tumbling Grace
and fluid silver parting

Only then,
do the cool waters of giving
speak their Blessing

Pergamon, Ride of Ecstasy
Scribes Authorship upon the Rock
NOW Promises of Life..
far beyond ten

Stillness.
Entrance into the Gateway of Eterenity
Named  Free Evaporation of the Soul.

Stolen Innocence,
Lifted
into the Great Revealing of Purity

Silver Light of Heaven
untouched by anything.
Reflection..
Moonlight Upon the Water

Chains of Gold are Glory.
Yes Paul, they are..

What of the silver links......  
are they the Pearls of a Great Price?
or the Mala of Mankind?

Witnessing of Heaven
Gods Gifts...
Forgiveness...Abundance....Deficit.... Harvest,
.....Living
Held together, by the hands of Prayer

A Secret Passageway,
the silver link of Christ.
Arch Opening
to the  mystery of the Cross.

Enter into My kingdom
and you shall know the Way

Peace.
