#chime
a bloom not I sniff on its wax yet soap in its name. Is chime an echo shuttling between shores clenched and surfs wrinkled? Forthcoming. Impending. Violating. Could thou help me to say this? that I was in out of my depth. Over-night granola, Mixed-berry fizz, Planet-Traveler hues. Could thou let me shelve vacancy? that I’d be sobbing for its mess. Signature Choco cake named here sole with latte all around globe some taste brewed here sole. How hot and heavy and hazy this existence savors. But— there is Thank you, the simple words that turns us into lamplighters who walk each other home, through the night never seems to end fluxing, always, always. after all. before all. A beam of apathy. Hithernay I lapse in the liquid fear of drifting afar from all flowed through me, a terrifying truth that strikes, falters, and aches. On shaft of daylight I look fine but look behind my eyes, everything is new until it’s old. An osmosis of remembrance wafts across the lake frozen I gazed tears streaming down its face and was told: every metamorphosis a co-passenger brought you continues the voyage with you on behalf of him. Would I get over it? Anon I find the galactic city model of the mind too cold to defy as I expend three minutes hesitating shall I do it or not that could be done within the three minutes so it’s left undone, with an ongoing groan. I yearn for rationality is too spiny and messy and illusory like a broadcast of self-deed that never ever pitch a well guess. But— nothing come decipherable until I seek to return with hands empty of dictions indecipherable. I love the debris of word that I don’t understand, that I build brick by brick. Euphoria stumbles in what is and what isn’t here. Chimeric. This time, at ease I walk into the place scrawled by unfamiliarity of all kinds, giddy, amorphous, variegated, not without my muse. Hovering, the Wayfinder exhales an attuning overture, an astringent taste of cacophony. “Free is the feeling they can’t take from thee.” a rustle not I shivered in yet took a leap towards. Through the bullet-spiked walls of unseen wars analogy hums a thousand suns as warriors bury a thousand letters.

The ornate rosewood clock Chimed 12 midnight; Tick tock tick tock... Echoed back lavish papered walls. Only the soft candlelight Bore witness to the scarlet stained walls; The anguished muffled cry Drowned by the midnight chime. It knew when to strike. At midnight.

Midnight Chime
Bells chime. The world is a pale imposter of itself, gray in the moonlight, but not indifferent. Coy perhaps, complicit. In league with me, perhaps. The paper birch trees shuffle aside, in line like ghostly sentinels, and the briars curl back in black swarthy masses to clear a path, mumbling a song in their old forgotten language, each leaning toward me, toward my house, pointing the way. A faint glimmer, light ahead, yes, the warm glow of firelight beneath the moss and stone of the highland hills. Distant laughter, the ***** of glasses and bell chimes. The susurrations of the nighttime grasses whisper in time with the tunes of my fiddlers; they know the songs of my blood, my bones. Come to my house in the hills – yes, you must come! We will dance as the swallows do, as the daisies do when the winds blow, and watch the walls and faces blur into one another as we spin round and round, swapping faces, swapping bodies. The other guests wear garments of wanderlust and daring, and their dance is one of flame and dust. Come! Dance within my house, between walls of polished ivory and a ceiling studded with pearls and diamonds and the teeth of extinct animals. Come! We are free here: free to forget, free to deny. Free, at last, to revel in the revelry and be as unwise as it pleases us to be. Here is a place where wisdom is useless and none will accuse you of sensible conduct. And after, when the sunlight tosses me back into the ocean and hauls you out dream of me.

Ominous silence! All clocks chime in unison, Silence recoils quick

Silence caught unawares
It's always a criminal time to fight/ To fizz away our furies and our fears in violent interactions within 'The Warrior Play'/ To unite in bouts/ Put personalities in liberty/ Releases to bring about the death reaction Untangled in all this Is an eye/ a void/ It paces and turns forgetful and lost ; a powerless ghost and a witness to these mad spoilings and energy fits/ This pinball of the battlefield is catalyst ; The untouched spirit of the weapon-head/ a war chime and the thirst of all of us 'soldiers'                  - in pattern & in population

Death Quotes #4
My mother likes to hang bells On the front door, And I always wondered What they were for. They would jingle Whenever someone made entry, and glitter With the light from the lamppost On the street. But they became dull Hanging all day, And the giggling clatter Mulled and dulled to a brassy bray. Mom has a small wedding bell Of a silver boy Holding flowers With a smiling grin. He’s asking her to ring him And bring back memories. But father’s guitar glistens Whilst the sun lays low. With one pluck The vibration hums Smooth and mellow. But can you hear it Sitting on the steps? This house is so large But there still lays unrest. And through The corridor Clacks the patter Of greyed canine feet. But some of us Lay silent And reap the past From the sounds That do dare speak. the living room clock Drones with That of a distant chime, Because the living arrangements Have changed overtime.

Doorbells
An availing light only calm wind if a morning without rain now a humid night awaken too a time born of paradise that let me pray with jubilee again my crêpe flambé full of surprises has me kiss their pain today that knowledge first isn't the key for a bastion here in cyberspace.

Anyone else hear the sum of their life Not in the ringing of chimes But the hum before they fade away?

Chimes
I've been lost in time these last few months - with clocks that won't tock and days that won't stop. And I was happy. Or maybe a little too comfortable. It's all the same - because the sun won't always shine and you can't stop the rain. But time will always find you and I'm here now. So where are you? Are you hiding too? Running from the monotonous chime - the one that dictates your waking and your slumber - your not so silent slumber. Trapped within the walls of time, is this living? Or is this death? It doesn't matter, the trees will still grow either way. And I'm here now - I wear bells now - to throw that monotonous chime out of time. So where are you? Do you wear bells too? I don't weep - no, I don't cry. Because tears don't harmonise with the monotonous chime.

A Monotonous Chime
Your tears are like wind chimes, as your heart brakes so softly, silent you try but this you cant hide. You've tried to be sweet, and keep the melody up beet, but sometimes the wind goes and  dies. But no your not fragile, from this you shall grow. That although your tears fall like wind chimes, you are stronger than most know. Yes you are hurt , because you feel burnt, but dear you are a wind chime , you've faced so much worse. From storms in the sky, and when the earth quakes from bellow, you have faced so much worse that you must know. Dear the wind shall come again jut be carful to who you give your heart to spend

Wind Chimes
I call myself a bell-flower, as you cannot hear my tremulous chime and I am decorated in purple and blue blossoms on the only home that holds me tight though I still want to crawl out of it and grow up in someone else’s

Bellflower
Through tight slits in wooden slats I catch the three-legged wind chime Which hangs by a thread from An overhung roof, by the gutter. The owl - whom keeps watch, Double sided, double gazing At the goings on in the garden and Mirrored happenings on the wall - Sits quietly at the centre of his universe With knotted thoughts so intertwined For years he has neglected Or perhaps forgotten how to Play the jingle resting on the breeze. The legs which dangle from the Moon with noisy knees have Lost their tone or dulled to make Their silent stand against my wanting ears - A fitting punishment. The only steps to stifle my regret are Toward the watching eyes to Shake the clapper; Summoning a tempest to end an age Of silence from the much too long Forsaken keeper of the chime.

The Silent Treatment
No wedding bells chimed louder Nor laughter or evening caller Not even the gold that sits around my finger. Rings better than my name With yours to finish it off.
