Progress

The dove lies split open, roadkill on black tar,

its white purity bleeding into the dark,

war has begun where peace once perched,

feathers soaked in oil, the asphalt’s cold hunger,

we name this wreckage progress, and drive on.

Feels like Friday today because it's a short week, tomorrow and Friday off...

"Ticking Time."

I can't shake off my feeling of the situation we're dealing with.
I can feel our time shatter with each tick of time.

I know it, I just know it.
Our time is fading apart,
losing what we built with our hearts.

Although, like a whispering dove,
you've found to see my heart and love.

I feel enlighten in some ways, in-which others I could not.
The clock continues to tick away as you smile beautifully.

I don't know if I should be anxious.
In the scenario where our facade will last away, you've left me with the only option to memorize the smile you put on my face.

dovey

you are not under
my wing;
    you are the wing.
                The wing in which
I fly!
                                     you are
                         my
                          beautiful
                                    sky.
no, my words
don't lie,

                     to see you again,
                                 I'd be happy enough
                                       to die.

[ Finally the sun ]

Finally the sun,

in the park a dove flies up --

freed from my pale skin.

After the winter / After the flood (of Noah's ark)

Poem "Een zondag, midden winter" - I ("A Sunday, in the middle of winter" - I, 2008, Lies Van Gasse)

Collection "Mist-I"

1 Black Raven, 1 White Dove

wounded by arrows
some missed but some hit
made my heart split
1 half hates, 1 half loves
1 black raven, 1 white dove
balance my mess
balance my loss
painting with the burgundy blood

Bread for the Birds

The handbook of my heart
Is one
For the birds,
As I am
Because I do
When there simply aren’t words.
So Sunday’s swan song
These little loaves
of love—
                    A bread of pray
                    For a safe journey home
                    My sweet turtle dove.

I've developed a habit of baking bread for the birds in my local park. I wrote this poem in honour of the new ritual that's become my raison d'état.

Lovely

Blind love, gentle dove
I have my heart toward only you.
It beats furiously,
yearning for all of you.
How could I not see
the historical trauma you've had to flee?
You've arrived in front of me to just be,
Wise serpent beautifully.
May the dove have an option to choose.
To gently love or fly free.
A blind love flees; real love sees
your true self is no mystery.

The Riff

Us together was exemplary devastation and even in pieces, I yearned for more...
Us together now is pure conservation even perpetual I want more...
Can I compare you to my lovely day? But you are the art more lovely and more adumbrate...
Your cherry blossom hue never gonna wash away by heavy showers of rain I'm not even gonna let ragged wind shake my darlings, Dovey...
You can savour me... But only with your eyes...  And I will vow with mine.. then there will be no surprise...
May our path be cohered forever and get entwined... We can epoch our kiss in a barrel then we not gonna need chardonnay wine...
What signifies how intimate we shall be??
Not what you are but what you're to me...
But you are so far away... And we are planning to make our stay...  we are staying under the blanket of starry nights...
And it's a sight to behold because we gonna see two moons collide...
As long as the sun shines we traverse and expands...
May we reach the end of it all and may this never ends...

💅🍿
Bees may **** us one day...
