Ethereal Trees
Austin Mosher Apr 2013
I’ll carve our song
In the bark of
Ethereal
Trees
For the world to

Can I?
Austin Mosher Aug 2013
I can't see you through the haze,
I can't remember you through the vuja de.
I can't hear you through the silent crowds,
I can't feel you through the concrete clouds.
I can't remember pleasure through the pain,
I can't listen to your voice to keep me sane.
I can't.

Cleansing Rain
Austin Mosher Apr 2013
Grave whispers sweet nothings up to the neon skies
Clammy hands reach for the ankles of passersby
Ash
To
Urn
Ash
To
Urn
I am consumed by the grasp of your cleansing rain
Stars exist within the blue, wash away the stain
Fly
To
Learn

Color With A 'U'
Austin Mosher Jul 2013
A white fire illuminates the shore of the stone lake,
                                              -a lake long forgotten.
Dear Silver Lady, will you accompany me tonight?
                 Let's sculpt until it's blue.
Listen to the red-orange whispers of the sky's sunset,
                   The sun's sock drawer
     In the
          Davenport of muddled hues,
    Composing the
Night sky that's ripped from yesterdays yellowed newspaper.
                  The moon re-gifted us
    A star.
                  I still visit there
                  From time to time.

Haiku #1
Austin Mosher Aug 2013
There are microphones
In a vast sea of speakers
Searching for their voice.

Throw a Stone
Austin Mosher Apr 2013
In a glass house with whitewashed walls
Dare you throw a stone?
One by one all the lemmings fall
Battered, bruised, and thrown
In halls

Piece by piece the fortress shatters
And now the shadows rise
Taking away all that matters
Empty now are prized
Platters

Once again the fortress will rise
Years and years from now
Just wait until the whitewash dries
Hear, we won’t allow
Reprise

Thank You
Austin Mosher May 2013
Just wanted to take a second
And thank all the users on here
For all the support you've given.
You make me strive for improvement.
As someone relatively new
To this art form,
Inspiration
You've given me
Is immeasurable.
Thank you
A.M.

*Not enough people show their gratitude towards others anymore

Treading Water
Austin Mosher Jul 2013
Lost in an endless Romance -
Labyrinth of mirrors
Reflecting Jade dreams.
Jade
Green with envy.
Envy
Is splintering,
And bleeding out
Blue.
Oceans and oceans
With no valve.

Drift away
Drift
Away

The Beat
Austin Mosher Jun 2013
Turn off your eyes,
And follow the beat.
Sun in the skies,
Singeing concrete feet.
The beat,
In the beginning.
The beat,
Throughout the middle.
The beat's,
Final lonely thud
In the end.

Atlas Panes
Austin Mosher May 2013
The weight of the world
Falls to glass shoulders
Atlas panes
Shattering.

Forgot the Angels
Austin Mosher Apr 2013
The absinthe skies
Bleed emerald
And blue
Three angels cry
As the statues
Crumble
The stones mangled
Scattered about

Angels
Are forgotten

End of the Night
Austin Mosher May 2013
My shadow is
My close ally
My whisper is
My heart's outcry
Follow me
To the end
Of the night
My chariot,
My stoic ride
My dwelling place
Pools in your eyes
Follow me
To the end
Of the night
My shores arrive
At the end
Of the night
Will you be there?

Midst of a Dream
Austin Mosher Apr 2013
Echoes of your voice
Like in the midst of a dream
Stirs without my choice
Crazy things mans never seen

A beauty so fine
Like in the midst of a dream
I wish you were mine
Can you even hear my screams?

In the midst of dreams
in a kingdom in the clouds
With you as my queen
Where there are no rules allowed

Like in the midst of a dream…

Into Me
Austin Mosher Apr 2013
This hollow fortress
Stands lonely
Strong walls, foundation
Straw only

I give all to you,
Into me
Just you stick around,
And you’ll see

When I close my eyes,
Dull darkness
Illuminates blue
In sharpness

I give all for you,
Into me
Just you stick around,
And you’ll see
Into me

1969
Austin Mosher Apr 2013
Come join our schism
Of
Song, dance
And surrealism
Nothing rules our lives,
Though
No one
Hears all of our cries
Everything for peace
Power
Of verse
And song are the keys
Break the iron lung,
Free
Yourself
Or else you’ll be hung
We are the new youth
We
Are strong
That, THAT is the truth.

Painted Night
Austin Mosher May 2013
I see your face
Every time I close my eyes
Painting my dreams
The color of your disguise

Crystal Blues
Austin Mosher Apr 2013
You look at me
Looking at you
Dark clouds I see
Behind
Your crystal blues
