Each night I die a peaceful death
Each day I'm born anew

My former life a paling dream
Of which I cast adieu

Yet still I know of yesterday
As present selves require

I clean the cluttered day of din
my life, oh soul, inspire!

All I ever feel is change
And all I think is One

When feelings bind me to the Earth
Thought breaks towards the Sun

On senseless paths that I contrive
Each day I pay the toll

Each day of thirst I dare imbibe
The reservoir of soul

We sleep in cubes
We walk in lines
Lets not be victims
Of the times

You beckoned me
I fell to you
and with our hands
you slowly drew
The picture; us

A single sound
Our single breath
In perfect time
In style, In step

The world stood still
I could have cried
This moments thrill
Has danced and died

Soulful beast here sleeps
But ever the low heart beats
To catch her sacred kiss
Winds him for the working day

Love, that pendant light
which in the night glows brighter
as you look away

Out on the brink of that infinite sea
The inimical tide
Crashing over me
Adventure and death
A beautiful turmoil
Ever so, I hold my breath
Peacefully loyal

life engine turning
by god fuel burning
for a system still learning
how to be, how to be

A drop of fear in the pen
Stains the whole piece - ugly
Be lightning that strikes the sky
Feel your way through
Without a shudder of a try

All I have to say about big business:
Where are the dinosaurs now?

thoughts thump like a drum
off the skin of my mind
leaping into to the world
with the truths that they find

He's a lover, not a fighter. They said.

I fail to see the distinction. She said.

Love is the greatest fight of all.

My Brush is Law
My colors creep
My canvas - an eternity
My higher mind combine all three
Each one is nothing without thee

My faithful Brush - where did you go?
Your bristles lost amid life's pallet
Stirring songs deep into the rainbow
We forget the first and last of ballads

Oh color - grand fixture of my slanted my eye
Is it that I'm deceived and really truly Blind?
If shown the fact in reason - A good man must decide
To believe in colors is not a curse - but the blessing of disguise

My canvas of creation - invisible inside
Through every smear you never stained and never once cried  
You hold the world upon your skin
Even when it has peeled and dried
Through life and death - through love and sin
My canvas stands - A silent friend

Walk with me - foot to foot
like mirrors gleam across the Earth

Press on me - I will too
Together we'll ascend to truth

Lovers of gravity
Will feel the pull from all sides meet

Plucks a lonely note on His golden lute
My Lord save the seed - for I am the fruit

many, much
many more
the words are scattered
on the floor

I kick them with my careless feet
until the poems themselves complete

many, much
many more
the path is shining
on the floor

I let the currents - low they sweep
take me away unto the deep

Still suffering
For a stay-at-home life
Stale, boring, uninspired
Clandestine, cozy security
Direction null, for now
He'll make a story of you yet

taking pains
what a chore
a whimpering beast
pawing at my core
asking me to care...

to love all, in care
when all is not worth loving
such is my despair

the world screams for me:
acknowledge!
where there are no eyes
God is hurting

trust in the change
have faith in the flux
it's always this way
running in and out of luck

I'll do the things no man has done
whenever I'm with you
and sing the words no voice has sung
to let us feel anew

I'll say the things no man has said
if just to make you smile
and trace the stars above your head
in novel shape and style

I want to name the blades of grass
I lie upon with you
In one gulp drink the ocean's vast
and pinch the opal moon

It's completely different
And exactly the same

Perfectly simple
Infinitely complex


Sufficiently I'm born
Yet to the Ideal form

This mutual duality
defines my stark reality

Gather near friends
While we wait for the feast
Let us drink in the tale
Of the man and the beast

they say beneath every man
an opulent beast stands
wearing the colors of the day
and playing tricks with gravity

what an old thing too!
and all the time spent coming up with you
Rider, rein in hand, crowned upon his head
the new rule is reason and the old god has fled

my restless mind dost strive to sleep
In vain I yawn and ponder on
furthermore the questions creep
were wake the night and not the dawn
In fact my yawn had strived complete

many much, many more
the words are scattered on the floor
I kick them with my careless feet
until the poems themselves complete

These window screens that
Stretch like puny prison bars
And pollute my view

Lo I know they are
Invisible from afar
The curse of this house

Sustainable life
Sounds boring and trite

If you stand there alone
like a rock in the night

How will you know
Just what can be

If you never let go
You can never be free  

Let your life touch the light
If only you dare

Let's explode through the sky
In one solar flare

Life engine turning
By God fuel burning
For a system still learning
How to be, how to be

He wonder why
She loved him so
And so did she
They couldn't know

He loved her for
The love he'd gained
And that is all
She felt the same

The reason then
For love, we know
A mutual duping
Of the soul
