It's like watching the
eerie evolution of
  some ethereal
        being
made of the same
shimmery divine
  substance as
         God
we thank you for
     our petty
     existence
  on this planet
     is like an
eerie evolution
Chelsea Nov 2012
Confused thoughts ebb and flow
in an unnatural tide.
Swirl me out to sea, unmistakable;
a small black dot on the horizon
drawing further from you and
your reality.
It isn't mine!
Love me into freedom,
you've already been released.
Chelsea Nov 2012
Crocodile tears
A crying caterpillar's fears
A monarchy tottering
on empty childhood years
What will come of this?
Who will hear the cosmos crying?
My ancient mewling star
dripping filigreed, gaseous drops
of pure, unadulterated heart-break
Chelsea Nov 2012
Two fish-swimming in opposing direction
seemingly unaware of their cosmic connection
Creatures of water never scorched by the
fierce fires of life
Walls of crashing waves protect
from love and strife
Ancient soul gains another year
refusing to let mortality interfere
with archaic wanderings and
living on Earth
The sum of all time could never
equal your worth
Chelsea Nov 2012
Fish flop all about
toiling the water with
their thrashing tails
and flashing fins

Sea green dark filters in
clouding abundant logical reason
And sends them following forever
the infinitely proceeding summer season

Jealous of the un-natural bond
between cat and fish
the crab cries to the moon
and clings tenaciously to her
romantic wish

Lost in loving memory of
their one and only kiss
she sends her hard shell flying
and is lost to the abyss
Chelsea Nov 2012
crooked vines crawl a wicked way
twisting a treacherous path for
he-who-fails-to-stay
No! Don't go!
she thought, she forgot to say
heavy with power and
stumbling dry in the rain
wanting to lie in leaves
and feel the earth soak up her pain
wanting with impatience
the chance to say his name
Chelsea Nov 2012
And the brittle rock of your pride
will crumble
and wither
and blow away
like the Enemy in the face of God

Strong winds will lift the pieces of you
and toss
you into the world to land or
keep flying as you please

And I will rain love onto you
and plant the seed of you
and sprouts will burst forth

and their beauty
will make
the
world
weep.
