mondays last light fading the afternoon away    
          the hidden ghosts i hold dear my heart  
                twilight emotions -
     its that little spellbound star glimmer piercing new night
         resurrecting the singing, distant
              place to which my softest of touches;
              would so love to be -
                     the gentle fire i seek burning the you that i crave
             -  a vast sky coming alive as the hours die
28.06.2010...poems for you..

Moonlight crazy
         on my eyes;
freeway stretching a lonely distance
        all I have
this windswept solitude
looking; looking.
echoing down my footsteps
           fading with time made holy
all I have...
All that I have;
          hold my hand and find out
          and I'll never let you go

"Loves so ridiculous'
      she told me
late one night
'Yes' I replied
'The mirror of life sometimes
        reflects our true image'
And she just laughed
and held me tighter

15 June:
“...its half way in a morning that glistens with slow reminiscences from last night. We find ourselves a respite for the hour, an oasis of sweet temper and our favourite elixir. We sit at the burdened edge; separated by transparency from passing furies; watching with rapt attention and fascination the range of creation displayed before us...We hunt down todays metaphors on clean pages; virginal expanses that congregate with a sublime notion of the art; death; logic; lust and wonder...we span serial glyphs across our vision to prevent a dissolving into the expanse before us; forming borders; signs; structures...Only to be de-constructed again and again; time dissolving; seconds inverting the quantum flux as HereNow paints the Tao over the moment...nothing-everything...we blink in and out; existence define by our presence; the reason and the way forward...delicately; smoothly; succinctly; we pick out secrets from between our worlds; Heartblood squeezed from the cries of angels; the force of supernovas; the very point of transition...again and again the universe spins us. A point – transition-how we create. This secret way. Again and again we play the Fool...again and again we play the Wizard. The tattooed skull of Intimacy grins from the ink on our backs...”

“...Sunday materialises. Its a smouldering glance across the smoky eternity of a crowded room. A lost sonata barely recognised on faded parchment dusty in a forgotten draw. Its the breeze in the wake of an angels wing. The seconds chip away; each tick a foreign language, the dissonance of grace. We're sitting, hidden, in plain sight, a wayward stop-over; a cafe somewhere on the edge of reason, but the coffees good and the service fast. We watch the people; reading signs and portents in the oblivious expressions; each grin and scowl, each glance, each distant look a codex of requite dreams; a subtle picture puzzle colouring destiny’s reverie. We join the dots. The music over the cafes soundsystem; beats with inevitable consequence. We feel deep into the heart of Journey and Moment...”

Draft #2:
its now thursday without my words
flowing the morning as I attempt a divergence
       along those lines
we found in the depth that uncovered
                                    a space so delicious.
true and just a little vulnerable

    its those  openings
whispered on lips, the soft brush of your tongue burning still

  i laughed because touching your tender guardedness
to glimpse that secret delicate you
(as your eyes captured me )
       that i will hold gentle

and can I write today
               all that (perhaps and maybe)
        heart deep
                               I discovered as my fears uncovered
can I write today
what (if I feel) that which distance belies and time denies
can I write
     the
             you I have not met
         (hopes dream notioned with real)
can I write wishful today myself exposed(bone deep)
                             your waiting
(yes fire)that possible new complete
(another '5minute' poem. Yet will it reach its intended recipient/will she read it? One day that is soon I know )

...someone once said to me ‘my nights are yours’
And for this I will never forgive them.
Naturally...
