:: line drawing ::

watched it twice those days when we could travel

see exhibitions


quiet slow and uneventful

it left lasting impressions

a simple drawing out


no fuss


and sometimes late in the evening

think of it


leave the house

and return to the simple line drawing
The sunshine‘s lost behind the clouds
It can’t seem to break through
Hindered by the gloom and doom
On a dreary afternoon
Specks of light now shines past
In little rays of hope
Like strings of yarn from high above
Twisted like a rope
Pulled closer to it’s orifice
Peeking out some more
Finding different avenues
For it to explore
Standing on the presuppose
Of Gods golden shore
Waiting for the blistering sun
To open the sky door
Let itself get noticed
It’s presence felt and warm
Fighting off the rain clouds
Brewing up a storm
With hopes to see a nicer day
In what some may call “the norm”
Passing by the old oak tree
You see a carved heart there
from you and me
Little did we know back then
that with a carved heart
It would also end.

but that photograph
and how it now fades

and how that shirt I am
wearing

just one day
up and fell apart

It is such an amazing thing to see children grow and learn, but growing up is hard to watch, yet satisfying at the same time...
you broke me down
and built me up stronger than before
covered me in rays of powers
and whispers of dreams
mixed with a double shot
or energy running through my veins

my heart is thawing
strumming my pain with his fingers/singing my life with his words/killing me softly with his song/killing me softly, with his song...

The lilt of your sea
Is a mystery to me,
The form of your lips
A vast calligraphy.

The shape and stem
Of your new world,
Impregnated with maudlin and marrow,
And how it curled, instead of set.

You are remarkably
Cloud-hidden,
Less an end to everything,
More a furtive wellspring.

O sweet custodian of paradise,
Please measure out your turn of phrase
In the language of light,
As we enter into the uncreated night.
