I revere you when I lay in your grove I am but in an infinity of comfort. Sealed in open space, It is in this grove I am found. I dance in the graduation of being. Being there, The expansion of reverence. A love affair in complete darkness Before the height of merchant eyes, Peeking over the horizon. This moment becoming more precious, more scarce. I revere you in the occasion that we are firmly planted in the ground. Just below the grove I am laid Just below the surface we are rooted. We are felt. Our survival depends on it. Without you I cannot begin to exist

In The Grove
My monastery is nothing but crimson dusk poured inside the veins of this grove Love to drink the liquid from the evening's injection My body's organs to be dried with purple blood

wind amused
Scorching bullets Pass us by Like dancing faeries Around our heads You covered yourself Like a bullet proof vest Dragon's breath is unleashed Are we living among the dead? Or dead Among the living? Where wolves, griffins, and lions Retreat! But never surrender Bullets fly They want us Dead Or maybe Alive Who knows? Nothing Can **** us At all The enemy Will die Of certain heart attacks Shot With AK bullets God's will So is seared We can Do it all And rise above Our fears Deep within This blood Coursing thru our veins Lies the Hunter Among the hunted Those within This grove Are seeking Bullets To overload Among the safety We run, we hide, we search So that those of us here Will rise And never die Please cover Yourself Like a Bulletproof Vest!

Like a Bulletproof Vest
Tulip in a Grove, alone in Spring, Like young girl's hearts, it's a fragile thing. Too bright for its dark abode: A brilliant corner on a lonely road. Petals, like shields, rise up as guards. For all that lives wants to part The Tulip from its Spring. But look, there, in the greenish gloom, There are other colors in this furtive room. In twos or threes, they stand apart, Each guarding their own and another’s heart. Bright heads like maiden’s reticent mane. Each shines for the other’s gain. For Summer comes too soon. - 2011

Tulip in a Grove
Dimly glow the fireflies In the densely wooded grove The creek beside the promenade Sounds like the whispers of the cove In its solitary peace The carp repress confessions In the quiet emerald water Live sorrows and obsessions And when the cicadas buzz They are like a music box Young love is their handle and springs They are the muse the world mocks The melody of passion Bleeds like the sap of the trees On lukewarm nights of dancing stars Love enters the world as breeze A pair of lovers awaits To live together at last And as the date comes closer here The future is not colorfast Life's hourglass so expires And there is not one who grieves His final rest is too costly So now he floats with the leaves There's no wedding to foresee Thus the bridge became of use Her toes hang off the bridge again But this time she holds a noose Oh the irony of love It's as the cicadas sang "Be joyful now in summer's heat, By our love, we all will hang." The silly girl hanged herself And she hung there not alone Cicadas sang her melody As her neck skin removed from her bone And so she hung there quite still Until her corpse decomposed Her tale was not quite as haunting As the music the cicadas composed

from my balcony
I long for myself and for those I love and for those I lead to be like the wild sequoias. Let our reach be high and vertical. Let our roots be firm and intertwined. Let us be strategically planted in deep reservoirs. Let our bark be thick and resilient. Let our seeds be released and germinated when the fire comes. Yes, let us be an enduring grove, outliving difficult seasons and enjoying the plentiful.

Sequoias
Deep in wood’s twig embrace She lies beneath the leaf tessellation Her hollow skull and hollow chest are friends with the burning winds She is hallowed in her sloping waist With child She is mother bony Woman with skinless face She is grinless For her jaw was stolen in ages past Yet she is blessed with child Her middle is heavy with boundless boy A boy fated To be ******* Emperor Tyrant King To be lord of the shattered lands and even their scattered men Destined to be crowned in fragments of skulls and silky fabric reds He shall mate with fire Be father of arson spawn His face will be carved in Mammon’s silver toys He will never be forgotten by any of history’s tedious scribes Yet first he must be born Now the winds are chanting They push at her pudgy waist They are chanting for the birth of the emperor ******* king They desire the tyrant They are the slaves of God For they are catalysts that mold the shapes of futures’ lords They will sing triumphant When he is pushed through dusty hips They will congratulate their oldest and most silent friend He is birthed with great force The spit of cadaverous womb Crying shrieks in the forest No one living to clean him By spirits’ force he is taught To eat the last of mother’s skin To grow to be the friend of the whispering burning winds He shall grow into great beast With strength to wield the lance He will enter the kingdoms of men Appearing as a wild God While he is shaping his role His mother will often laugh Ever since he left her Her body was never again the same

I was in a sombre mood I went outside, my nerves to soothe Guess I had been sitting to long, to still For a little bird flew down, set at my heel This litte bird was so sweet He started to tweet He sang me a song It was kinda long But I slowly move To his little grove That bird made my day He made me smile before he flew away Miracles happen all the time Missing the small ones is a crime

A Little Miracle Song
Vast unknown vistas, Take me to where my dream's dwell. Rolling prairies and shaded groves! Where the warm flowers welcome me home. Frolic and joy paint my expression Of this dream, elusive! ~~~~ Stepping softly, I wish to find An iron passage of ancient time! Here I can go forth into fantasy, enormous and sincere! Lean the trees of old Magic and lore they ever behold! Lord I wish to find A dream of Elven-kind! Where the wind speaks whispered fables of yore! Oh, how you flush me with flutters! What is beyond that rolling hill.. Venture forth, I must!

Uncovered
You've always been like a sunrise. Its always morning in your eyes, Your beauty dawns on me every time I see you. But the sunrise could never be this beautiful. We can creep off through these trees To our secret forest retreat. Go ahead, show you feel free, Don't be sorry. Know our love is crossed and starry. No signs of our kind out this far, No jobs, no time, no fame to scar. Can we stay here forever? Our love is bizarre Enough to stay in this spot. How we'll love to be forgot.

Our Grove: No Vacancy
Ancient gardens where dragons roam: Guardians of Grove protecting Flower Rose. In wanders uncanny courageous bone, Ghost hunting for salvation. Tempted for the rose, face to face with dragon's nose; Swallowed by the tales and the mysteries. A seed untold, yet to follow unfold.. Blooms the next flower in the garden of my dragon guarded home.

Dragon's Treasure
My darling swells like the rivers of a sunset Waiting for me Hiding behind what is seen Though no surprises seems to escalate I am washed with bitter poison Seen then from behind it all Where she was waiting for me No excuses left to supersede Oh she liked to move Tranced Arms wailing in the back And flailing out from behind her - Never will anything more Sit down my soul For a necessary lesson On just what it's all about - She liked to move To the commotion of fortune My darling speaks Blinding me from All disconnection In my ecstatic state I leave a weary life to be Behind me As then we bleed Color, dimension and new virtue Into my open hands Filling the gaps between my dreams She staggers not And I look past the world again I tremble Stepping behind what is seen Where she was waiting for me I tremble Stepping behind what is seen Where she was waiting to free my soul Oh I see the truth Clear Whole hearted in the face of it's elliptical reason - She liked to move To the commotion of fortune May I live life again
