it seems to be the
way we are-
waiting for a
crash to occur

and then wringing
our hands
like falling sand
saying-ah..?
Michael John Jan 2022
there are some regrets,
some things we can
not google
nothing to be done..

but wait on sunsets
the rainbow´ed bugle!
still..we had our
fun..
Michael John Jan 2022
we search for inspiration
it lurks in strange places
perched up an agave
maybe,or,

in anger,
or passion,
to understanding
or a lover

who makes you
do weird things..
interpretation
how we see-

sweet memory
hope
home
birds

living by the
waves..

(as we get older
our childhood
returns somehow
rainbow:)

i have an urge to
climb a tree
perhaps,an agave
as it toppled by
threre would be
my best work
i know me..

i)


there was a blackcap
in the agave
a rambunctious chap
he cried as if to me
i want this and i want
that..!

(with a burning brand
eye
of tainted ruby)
and, i want it, now, see,
by the blasted horns of pan-
immediate..

ii)

(the language of the
total-
i
tarian
Id-
silvia atricapilla style..!)


iii)

i answered after a traditional
while-di nada di nada,
my feathery amigo!
o!

but what can he give to
me?
spellbound to beauty?
time,small rainbow..

i)

in the agave
sat a male kestral
waiting and silent..

looking at me
-a lack of guile..
-a trifle spent..

nothing is free-
(questionable
or a statement?)

it seemed to say-
but life be full!
and worth effort..!

ii)

honesty..integrity,,
(said this moral
bird) and alight

higher, for today-
(a fleeting call)
will only last

momentarily-
a beat of a wing-all
time will pass

and to memory
an endless fall
into white as

white be..
a panthiestic ball
the present,future,past..
Michael John Jan 2022
today in the agave were
dove
two black bird
a robin-
love-

(that is a count)
small rainbow
of my heart
they say,

time heals all
wounds
all bright
colours

a great dark
shroud
or a light
but they say,

a lot..
which may laugh
loud or just
plain manipulate..
