Owl's eyes see with prophecy
through the depths of
the forest trees' limbs
And those spirits...
Witnessing the past, present and future....
These eyes understand either
upside-down or backwards in
visions of blue
Like mirrors reflecting the sky,
owls eyes perceive the stratosphere
doorway in between light
and shadow-
Gifted as it is with a sprinkling of galaxies....
Owls eyes can see with magic-
Their pupils are portals to Shangri-La and Tartarus where ghouls  waver their direction endlessly in a lemniscate
Even in the most moon-less night
they conceive palpably those ghosts that weap as they wander.

she is all
the fairest
the web of the cosmos
brought forth
so beautiful

she speaks
in tongues foreign
in silence of the known
for she is
the forest

the sun baking
the skin of my back
unforgiven
all the currents
of the sea

shining she alone
above the world is
her majesty
a sin
to
partake of

yet every man's
desire his quest to
make her
to ******
to bespoil and ravage
her
tenderness

take her wild
taste  all of her
flesh
make her his
claim and mark
this

as his
his
conquest
thus the world begat
sin
lust
no love

love is foreign

let's cry together shy
for all the souls who are
gonna die
not knowing
the beauty of the forest glen
the fair shine of an evening sun
the smoke of fire
the mountains shoulder
the sea's vapor or
a young deer wild
loose upon the prairie
a goat baying
a horse gallop between their thighs
a river cold wash
their cares
away
the lover's paradise
that joy of a child that comes
when they look at you like god hisself
a new day unfolding
where dread or misdeed
gets put away in bright yellow
praise for
this is just another day
dead have seen as much
poets have felt
stroked
the felt of that fur
called forth to the God's the Earth's majesty
so much better
yet
it is until
I die when
I will shut up
and quit trying
to capture
this life
as well
as enjoy
it
in the meantime
let us
cry together

opened eyes
finally
those that refused to see
the rawness
saw things as
my gift my right
to take as I saw fit
ravage have enjoyment
at their expense
I looked up
then that day
at the immense world around
and lost my breath
felt alone
felt guilty
for all I had done
for what I
had thought even
sin is evil thinking
about the things I had
contemplated
satan was me
I feel now
I believe
that humans
are definitely
no god
god I quite
ask to show me
his face
I see rainbows
now

thought about
North Carolina
that night
I took off
to the woods
and never came back

with a vengeance
several options
available
thought of
Fayettville
again

a girl I knew
the essence
of my roundabout
wayfaring
hard hearted
daydreams

I ended up
outside of
a bar in north Florida
the Seagull
sitting waiting
for

a sign a
paradigm
of a wanderer's way
a novel to
read again
like
I had never

felt the
road wanting
to just get on
to go
to NC
sat
turning
the pages

I'm disconnected from the world
I don't want to see the people on this earth in a swirl

I'm disconnected from my phone
I don't take calls no more I'm unbeknown

I'm disconnected from my music
I just can't hear no more in this cubic

I'm disconnected from my sweet love
I feel like an old unfit glove

I'm disconnected from my home
I don't want to live here no more I want to roam

I'm disconnected from reality
What Is real and what is fake maybe it's my mentality

I'm disconnected from my mind
The demons took their time

I wish I was plugged in
So I can live again
