Take this pill,
The man said without a mouth.
He stared at me,
Yet eyeless was he.
The northern point,
Shadows south,
Across the drowned; dry sea.

Plant the seed here,
Prance your steed here,
The branches are very near.

Time without memory,
Memory without time,*
Blood drips from every line.

The line a poet creates,
Upon many things relate.

A line of words,
Or a hanging man's last,
Does he see life in a flash?

Is greed, lust what guided him?
Or did love shine out from within?

With actions,
Yet he atone?
Undying fractions,
Does he die alone?


Carpe Diem
The fourth chapter erupts...

The advantages of a pseudonym
Are reasons to write under a real name,
For to even those who know me
I am anonymous

You haunt me..
I'm out of breath.
You call my name softly
It's you who left.
I shiver, I cry
I'm looking for you
In the air, I'm high
Enough to find a clue
The pain won't stop
My death is near.
In my head you pop
Like a ghost in fear.

Bless me with your Sterling Secrets
barred from Eyes too soon to See.

Open your Arms
as I lay before You

Vulnerable Exposition.

Unzipp the Sky ~
Unburden your Breath

Breathe Eternity

Gentle Whispers

Let me know your Stories.

Through all my Lives,
I realize with Open Eyes

the Tears may fall and Spirits rise~
You Cradle mine as Sacred

I fall before You~
Graciously
in

*Utter Absolution.
A recollection of various moments in Prayer.
This is written to be purposefully intense, as it is meant to capture a sacred decree between devotee & Divine.
Enjoy :)
