kiss the street lamp closed,
a new halo is dawning
dew drops curl into little spheres
ready to reflect the coming joy
in glorious refraction!
the dove untucks her beak from her huddled wings,
the air wrestles it’s self to life
after the still night
the lizards blink a slow blink
charging in the gently rising rays
the salty sea smiles,
shining back every color the sun dares to paint the dawn
and the first baby gurgles in tune with the larks and wrens
the creaking of an old door warming up joins the chorus
as tip toes navigate the perilous sounds of sudden awakening
A tipsy dance denotes that love has risen in haze of daylight
the hopes of a thousand dreams fluttering about
Suddenly fall to the ground
the greeting came as hard as the stare
“Where the **** have you been again?

it was a quick gentle motion caught more by intuition than by the concrete senses
a hand waving over and had I blinked, I would have kept the same old lenses

I wasnt led like a dog by the lead or coerced with convoluted imagery
instead I was asked upon the silent wind if i wanted more than debargery

a life less ordinary but unbelievably different to the numbed down dumb down perceptions
I took the opening in the lightning crack offrerd me. I never hesitated, I was not afraid of deception

i felt. I felt the urge of undeniable truth calling
and as I tugged at the veil I stood to watch my manufactured perceptions falling

at my heels the dogs of war became powerless
I saw the heat of blood in the heart of my enemy and I loved them no less

i stood there watching the flashing blade come down at my shoulders again and again
and did not flicker, nor wince nor change and was not in all attempts slain

i stood there in peace as the vile anger of my assailaint grew and the flashes of rage became faster
the purest form of evil manifested in eyes burning rage vehement too powerful to master

and I looked upon them with the curiosity of a child unaware of the forces of hate being expelled
and in the peak of resolution one final grunting blow readied above our heads suddenly eyes welled

the flash of irrelevance dashed through both eyes weakness and pain exhausted,spent.
frustration had given way and so too pain released, exorcised it went

a desperate plea escaped thier eyes seeking mercy and had instantly found it.
i was stricken powerless by love and held over like breathing to have given it

then the sons and daughters of pain and denial sprung forth from thier eyes
sobs of relief and gratitude barreled into tortured cries truth had crushed lies

from knees they flung themselves at my feet kissing my footprints afraid of much
and I knelt down and hugged them with humanities touch

they clung and held fast to their forgivenesess
and asked for my own.

We floated in light and love waiting for the first smile of knowing.
I love you.

Differences are contrasts
that make me take stock
view points change
according to the casting of the shadows
we can not ever hope to know the whole truth
so grab your flickers with both hands tightly
and never let go
logic fails where love conquers
and deception mimics truth so sweetly,
so innocently
it defies suspicion.
popular agreement is heralded
by the herald only
no thinking necessary
we loved to be told what is what
true sheep
never looking twice just following the herd
but the blackest ones
the prized and persecuted ones
they were lions in wool
and more black lambs are becoming rams
and the mirror hiding truth will crack
and the Walls of our confines will be broken
only problem is
how do we know we want it?
want the unknown
sounds awfully complicated to me?
which pied piper will we choose?
and if we could
who would let us live
peacefully without interruption
our truths
Our beliefs
our customs
our souls
our love
our peace
our true self determination
without the need for cattle prods
and gags
slaughter houses of reality
playing on my mind
begging the realisiation
of my soul.

The years grow into pain
as easily as laughter and sorrows
The hard press of coals
and
washing of grit from crystaline diamonds
Reveals each facet
Another view of The faces tragedy and comedy,
like Hope after disaster
Careless memories float off in the wind,
another casualty of life's isms is taken
A broad brush,
but a magnificent master stroke
We knit ourselves in and out of entwinement
Searching for the immaculate fit
Faced with rebirth or endless eternity
No Mark of pain goes without the blessing
No laughter goes unrelished
For all the love and hope in the world
rests with one thought
one idea
One action
One desire
One cure
Agape
Love, riding the Tails of hope
on the beast of tragedy
All is mitigated and put right,
If not this time, then next
And nothing is lost forever
life is the great mystery,
that we must never solve
Lest we know it all,
Suddenly dissolved into nothingness!
that would be the only true tragedy
Of the aeons and of the ages of ages
To ever be cast upon the seas of eternity

The worn old Black velvet sky with a multitude of clustered pinholes where light escaped its restraints to slip through and rest gently on the blackened earth. A wonder of the ever searching light and the void of darkness that held it at bay. Whatever the contortion; shadows, light and darkness, danced between life and death, obscurity and revelation, hovering between the fragile tensions. If there was another way, none would use it. It has been this way from the first inkling of the memory of the beginning and like such entrenchedaditions, none saw the value of variants as the aeons proved. But ,just once in every billions of realities, there is one exception that brings with it a cataclysmic brilliance, that propels all consciousness and reason into a new birth, a newness of creation, with new realities unfolding, creating a new stream of well worn traditions. May they be ever more in the light of ether’s unfolding story of depths and heights, for the joy is in overcoming endlessly, a new and unfathomable task of enlightenment and a constant serarch for the ever expanding, ever changing now and then, through always.

A world of starss between them
their hearts reached out for eachother at the end of each passing revelation
revolving in the same matter
as if the distance could be mitigated somehow,
by touching the same space only worlds apart
he traced their names in the stars and she traced out thier hearts intertwined
alas, the end was ne’er in sight
the mysteries of why were too mystical to ponder
and creation filled the void with challenges, love and light.
thinking back to when they were new
they had shone brightly with innocence
the span of things was endless, but had allowed limited exploration
the One had called them unawares
and rushing back like obedient children
with great anticipation of what grand joy was at hand
immersed in the mysteries revealed
it was then they lost eachother
caught in different planes by a different set of stars
beyond the eye of the black hole created by the break in his heart
and the shattering of hers.
Searching in opposite polarities aeons apart the matter ever expanded
passing eachother withn a blink of an eye
but without words a universe was said;
Iris to Iris, soul to soul,
touching the same matter as eachother
only, aeons apart...

she stood atop the high cliff
Scanning the oceans depths to the horizon
Soft amber glows lit her strong fine features
She had that far away look in her treacle eyes
he knew she was not present
she had gone to be with the spirit of her love
how his own spirit ached to chase after it,
to hold her steady so she would not lose sight of the shore
he almost drifted away with her
but sensed the need for her privacy
he did not want to find what she hoped she might find
he felt it would truly destroy him
he restrained himself from touching her
instead he looked out to he setting sun over her shoulder
letting the strands of lit golden hair flicker on to his cheek
as he blessed and thanked creation
for bestowing on him such simple glory
a wilderness of gratitude for each faint stroke
his whole being came alive
a grand mercy in a pinprick of revelation
divinely connected
as if her body knew that a love lost
was held steady across the arcs of time by another love
as she stood there motionless,
reverent Silence between them
the queen of his faith had restored in him,
what he had long hoped restore in her
He thought recklessly
‘We held time there,
locked in an expedition,
each of our own
words never spoke of any greater higher church,
than that of love
as our haloes mingled,
the sun left enraged with jealousy
slipping into the darkness
leaving the colours of our mismatched hearts to bleed’.
