Solaces 5d
These highways past the outer rims of heaven.
Towers and spires of white rock.
Sunset colors the golden grass fire orange.
The deep of my thoughts write for me this dream.
Solaces 5d
We walked through the dark forest until it became light.

A whisper called down to the thunder.
All light crunch.
Darkness savior uttered lightning words.
All light consumes.
The gathering of shadow.
All light destruction.
Doorway to new oblivion.
All darkness begins.
Star by star.
All darkness paints.
Universe canvas painted in hatred shadow.
All darkness spreads.
Light hero uttered lightning words.
All darkness sets in.
Doorway to new salvation.
All light begins.

During the battle a presence was felt.
A first light in the darkness shined.
The stars begin to sing to my sword.

The grand azure blade gleamed in heaven glow.
As the darkness was now pushed away by the weapon and it's ultimate presence resonating  in my soul.
I swung the blade of new creation and vanquished the eternal night.

A strange pattern for
writing has come
to me lately.
The skeletons of
poems form when I
lie down for a nap.
Sleep always calls,
and bones want to
dance and grow skin.
Lilacs bloom, and I feel
the inner thigh of
eternity, soft and wet.

I can't get any rest.
I have to jot down the
notes or they turn
to ashes and blow away,
or, they are buried deep in
mud and slumber,
impossible to dig up.

I sleep with a notebook and
pen, as I drift off,
I whisper to the tortured
bones,
don't cry and try not to worry.
I'll bring you to life.

Here is a link to my YouTube channel where I do my poetry.  I just put up a video of a poetry reading I did at the Mason City Public Library.
My books, Seedy Town Blues Collected Poems, It's Just a Hop, Skip, and a Jump to the Madhouse, and Sleep Always Calls, are available on Amazon.

Baltra arises to her feet and walks the deck of the ship in an unmapped manner. The new tattoo of the strange dream gear on her hand slowly spends.  A sort of new drive awakens within Baltra's spirit.  

She continues her aimless walk among the Stargazer's deck passing by a sleeping Killian as his snores add to the music of the ocean.  The sails begin to falter a bit as her wind invocation is starting to weaken.  She chants the words of the invocation to reset the wind spell.  

"Pnemeia Vortixia!" As Baltra holds her staff toward the skies, she also sees the gear tattoo in her hand start to glow and spend faster. The new glow floods upon her staff from the tattooed gear adding immense power to her wind spell.  A mighty vortex of wind envelops the Stargazer as Baltra can no longer feel the dance of the sea. The Stargazer is still moving forward. Only it is moving in such a way where the oceans now longer carry it.  Baltra walks toward the stern of the ship and discovers that her wind spell is now carrying the ship. The Stargazer is flying above the ocean at an incredible speed. The tattooed gear in Baltra's hand is spinning and glowing a verdant like color of power. A strange symbol is lit at the center of the glowing gear.  Although she has never seen the symbol, she is somehow familiar with it.  The symbol signifies Wind/flight.  

Killian awakes from his exhausted slumber to a calm ship on still waters.  Only he was mistaken as it was a Calm ship on moving clouds.

At the edge of forgiveness.
The stars sing to my eyes.
Planets aligned.
And I forgive you.

Toward the tranquility haze.
Celestial Sapphire blooms.
Heavens daydream.
Arcadia reverie.

On light wings I blaze.
Outer planet and into the macrocosm
Into forever passed eternity.
And beyond the beyond.

I travel to the creator.
And observe the expanding canvas.
Void becomes darkness and light.
And Life and death.
