How to tell?

I've always loved that deep, deep red,
Soft as velvet, Smooth as fire.
It's imagery stark, whether in;
Winter whites,
Dark greys, or,
The Hustle'n'Bustle of colour's Chrome ire,
With all the things it represents,
Fame, fortune, Dripping from your nose,
Slashed on your skin, love
And Romance, written on your tongue,
Warmer; than all Hell's scorching pits,

And now staring at the sink,
I feel it, so much more,
Than everything.
A clear gauze blur,
On crunched China bone,
And rubbery plastic cartilage,
Like heels into snow,
I sink into the Crimson Ink
And stare into the sink
But how to tell?
Which Crimson is which?
Is all that I can think*.

Is it Love, Lust, Hell, Pain,
Blood, Fire, Fortune and fame,
Romance and Roses,
In all that I think,
As I see more
- and deeper yet sink-
Into how
Life writes it lines
.Deep.
In Crimson Ink.

oneness in all

stillness can hold you a willing captive
she lets you journey through her mystery
until you fully accept the reality of peace
she will love you till the end of all things
holding out to you the full oneness in all
dear child the Universe was made for you.

I will be off site for a while.
I have some things to take care of.
Hopefully they won't take
Too long to sort out.
Thanks for understanding.

Love you all!

There is this thing about you,
Can not exactly put a name to it
Some thing that has drawn me close,
I am afraid of the consequences
If this all poured out,
Could it become,
Something that would have never been?
not sure who i'm protecting

they made love

a woman started to sing to the notes of a guitar
all a sudden she went deep underground
too much LSD poleaxed her legs and mind
but the colours and sounds kept up a song
the song she searched for all her life singing
a lover and best friend played like children
they found each other in eternal embrace
While the world kept shooting everyone
they made love so love would survive,anything

You're burning a seething red beneath
your skin; how long before this garden
burns to ash and the ferns grow?

When you no longer know how your
story goes, how many demons can you
create out of those who you've surrounded

yourself with? These tresses will strangle
the last of you in some ceremonial ground
where all you'll ever hear is the sound

of their voices laughing like a pack of
wildebeests, waiting for when your flesh
is no longer owned by your bones.

They'll pick you apart like a child
in a corridor full of strangers much
stronger than you; go to bed

sleep on it, and just let the light of your
ember veins light awake the madness you
cannot cast away. These miseries

will find their way into their beds
and make your dissolutions their nightmares
and then sleep, sleep you will.

Just because it ended
doesn't mean you have to
set fire to what you've built.

You can just
not visit there
anymore.
