Your my universe. I hope you know, Your the earth beneath my feet Supporting my every need Your the sun high above Refreshing me every morning With your warmful glow Your the moon above my head Illuminating the way Your the stars shooting across the sky Attempting to reach me to make My dream come to fruition.....

My Universe
A dream dreamt for a millennium Everyday oozing away as I badgered and prayed For one splendiferous day To feel limitless and ecstatic in my cranium. Suddenly, my dream came to fruition All this time was worth the anticipation My brittle bones became strong through elation My every cell frenetic with love's constitution. The dream fulfilled Vanished without warning Soaking my heart in distrust and mourning Creating in the center of my mind an emptiness so still.

Dream Fulfilled; Dream Vanished
Enchanted by spring’s rustling whispers      ... whistles swirl in the pungent springtime breeze; steeped with a bedazzling         cadence    heart dancing to a hummingbird’s          whirs    waves of breath, of little wings waft, whooshing throughout twining honeysuckle lattice        a tiny manger beset of hidden gold precious speckled eggs,  silver lining of smallest hopes    fruits of fruition    continuum beheld prize, concealed in interwoven rootlets;     potently perfumed flowers        while away the waning dark hours; swollen full flower moon            waxing yellow,..          heavenly fragrance sweetly-scented suckled nectar    the one with eyes of a child,    wonder ― hidden inside,      marvel in the light of grateful eyes imbibing an unholdable moment's     spellbinding elixir      ... poetry alive air  so poignantly perfumed        with blossom         moonstruck by spring’s frolicking cadency a reverent moment's edifying intoxication        a sobering beauty that just is... someone ...

How sweet the honeysuckle lattice
Polished and refined, With death I have found A life below ground A place I can call mine Destruction and evil deeds A breeding of pure hate Is all that I can create Out of all these heartless seeds I punch them in To the deep sullen dirt Water them with vengeance And a sprinkling of hurt Tonight is the night I find what dwells below I don't have a key But I can bargain with my soul As I place it into these seeds I am but reeds in the grass I'm letting go Only Heaven knows The blackness of Hell's wrath I plant my lifeless soul in this plot To groom it as it grows So slowly that nobody knows It's the place the devil goes to rot Watered with tears, warmed with fire And as time stands still, never changing This fruition of evil continues growing Until the depths of hell can go no higher Then it will bloom A flowering gloom Growing out of control The ground will harden In this here garden Fertilized by my soul

I can't write...      I have a stash of twenty drafts, bearing a couple of lines each I can't crack...      Every draft seem to have developed a shell I can't breach I can't gather...      My thoughts so I could nurture these drafts to fruition I can't think...      The clatter in my head meant only to deafen I can't fathom...      What went right from what had gone completely awry I can't find...      Much needed sanity to let soar and fly I can't cry...      The tears I've beckoned for so very badly I can't scream...      Only muffled gurgles of notions drowned at sea I can't see...      The bigger picture...that consumed us both I can't hear...      Except for the dreaded voice of reason that I loathe I can't piece...      Together one decent little write ***I can't breathe...      I can't breathe...***I'm losing this fight

I Can't...
A fueling, flashing fulgent, furnace, fulgurous, frothy, fumes and feathery flakes, I do not speak of waves of snow, hoary frost, or ice, a cold gelare or even frozen lakes! Formidable, furrows, fructifying, functioning fruition to foremost fondly found a flaming, I revel not in such destruction but choices for my naming! For flowers flow fields forever, forswearing funneling fjords finitely, fire fray’s forests furthermost, Instructing in the arts of language, for I am your gracious host! Fakir formulates factious forms fading flummoxed into fury, a fugacious fusible and furtive fleeting feigning furiosity, A deep ditch dug, tight as pug, wrapped blanket snub though not a flub, all perspicacity! Finds frosty frore a frozen freezing faction for fusty flaming feasance, Fomorian fantasy of formidable faggoting, facient up to fancying, fancying, furnaced flesh fluidity finds itself factitivity, facets for fabulists from the faint familiarity, Relating cold to heat as such, requires but a human touch, apologize I do you see for all my clueless severity! Fans of all the falconry, who fallow fields of family, falter for a fallacy, falling into infamy as forgone flame frontogenesis, fatigues a Faustian felony, for which fate finds is fastigiated foolery, febrile features featly and yet furiously, favonian fear of fellowship fiendishly, figures foal to fatherly, finally fiddle flinchingly, although not so too furtively; I finagle in my filigree!

We women fold linen some believe we live solely in the kitchen we are a force of nature, we nurture children, we are driven, we kiss things better, we matter. We women hold opinions we women mould opinions, where else but in the kitchen, nurturing, washing, listening, dishing wisdom with love. We women are cloaked in many roles, politician, clinician, villain, lover, mother, cook smothering all under our cloak. We women suffer more due to our nature, we're also tougher than a right hook! Duck next time women are driven to anger. We women are the ignition of life, love and understanding we go by many names, Mother, sister, aunt, wife and nan. Our own name lost to time. Would I want to be a man? No. We women are fruition, we are magicians, we are are giants in our own right.

I tied together a few slender reeds, cut notches to breathe across and made such music you stood shock still and then followed as I wandered growing moment by moment slant-eyes and shaggy, my feet slamming over the rocks, growing hard as horn, and there you were behind me, drowning in the music, letting the silver clasps out of your hair, hurrying, taking off your clothes. I can't remember where this happened but I think it was late summer when everything is full of fire and rounding to fruition and whatever doesn't, or resists, must lie like a field of dark water under the pulling moon, tossing and tossing. In the brutal elegance of cities I have walked down the halls of hotels and heard this music behind shut doors. Do you think the heart is accountable? Do you think the body any more than a branch of the honey locust tree, hunting water, hunching toward the sun, shivering, when it feels that good, into white blossoms? Or do you think there is a kind of music, a certain strand that lights up the otherwise blunt wilderness of the body - a furious and unaccountable selectivity? Ah well, anyway, whether or not it was late summer, or even in our part of the world, it is all only a dream, I did not turn into the lithe goat god. Nor did you come running like that. Did you?

The farthest man made object in space, Voyager 1, is over 20 billion km away from Earth. On board is a phonograph record, brilliant gold, containing sounds and images of what life is like on earth, A message to whoever is able to listen, a literal shot in the dark. On it is an inscription that is perhaps the most beautiful sentence I have ever read TO THE MAKERS OF MUSIC ALL TIMES ALL WORLDS a time capsule, a gift, from us To anywhere and everywhere A hundred years from now or a thousand Our belief that no matter what time Or world you belong to, melody and harmony and rhythm, can bring us together, can communicate. On the cover Are figures, explaining how to operate this record Hieroglyphics from what by then Would be ancient history Messages in binary, the 1s and 0s Our position in the universe marked by our distances from gigantic pulsars, the star map to our home, the creators of this message There's beauty in this marriage of math and art Code and music As a way to communicate with the universe. Some of the images on the record are the most beautifully simple ones, Of us, humans, drinking and eating, laughing, of animals, nature, food and architecture. Then there are images of our scientific observations, mathematical calculations, our discoveries, Like a child showing off Look, look what I can do! Black and white and in colour, Pictures, proof that we, indeed have lived and achieved. The music, classical, our very best from Bach and Mozart to Blind Willie Johnson's Dark was the Night. But all of this can only matter, can come to fruition if someone exists to receive it, and is evolved enough to comprehend what it means. But that's the thing, everybody knows, That's there's a slim chance of this record ever being heard, and it's much more possible that the Voyager will simply end up as floating debris in the cosmos, but it doesn't matter! We just want someone to know that there was a species of bipedal, intelligent animals on this blue planet, no different than finding graffiti in alleys that read I WAS HERE. WE WERE HERE, WE EXISTED. And it's all about that hope, the hope that someone will see us, our pictures, listen to our languages, our greetings, our music, and remember us, even after we're long gone. Or perhaps we will one day be interstellar space faring people as well, following the path of the Voyager, doing what we do best, Explore.

I can't shake the feeling of being lost My mind ponders future dreams But none have come to fruition What do I have to pay, what is the cost? I don't want to create elaborate schemes But I don't want to lose my ambition Every opportunity, I seem to exhaust It has become a common theme An almost permanent condition Every line has been crossed My life is breaking at the seams I'm ready for a new transition A different disposition A lasting vision

Saturate and brimming of my hometown Boston, of its sunshine Marathon peoples and bomb images, my heart fracture rend. On the third day—resurrection of all my sadness came to me, feeling fresh and born to fruition, so this grew. It grew and through my tears coming, I stood to witness two loving sparrows on a window branch. My sadness at some abeyance, studying and curious I was of her--all akimbo shivers and rock-in-roll, of him-- flying feathered stone, rolling from branch to branch and coming home, repeatedly. Circles flying within moving circles! Did something happen with the last jiggle of her branch? Did you see that? Science says what they were doing—they had finished. (But what to believe of science? It calls their loving--mating rather). Now to tell you—the sequencing was this: when I was full knocked down on account of my grief, and I hardly had strength to go on, a Beatles song flew in and gently pierced my heart, singing to my ear: *Why don't we do it in the road... no one will be watching us...why, why don't we do it* O, Spring Life of Sparrow surprises! Open road, that budding tree, any new notion is something grand! How do I say now? That you two were most helpful, your innocence forever abiding? Fly off Sparrows, forever prayer! I speak this with all my love.

A Fresh Start
How wonderful it is, I say, to the retreating yellow form of your feelings I mistook For Infatuation, you’re a romance heckler far and far away from Accepting fruition within classrooms and being labelled as an angel. And it was within forbidden hell of euphoria, I found You nestled in the society’s psyche neither content or calling For help. Neither did you neglect the pink spectacles of the society, Even found yourself moulding and moulding into a fungi green That I could not recognize, within that half-sanctum, half-oasis I found you absentmindedly Bathing in, you were already out of its waters. And I was no longer seeing you within the dry desert or the sibilance of my desires, but instead in cement woodlands and Within artificial communication and Intimacy I gave willingly. Now how does it feel, to have your heart in one piece, How does it feel to not use whipped cream to fill in the Cracked, salty sections of your own ***** that, Out of confusion, continues to play its favorite song but in all the wrong beats. Somehow within cacophony I found you, nestled, comfortable in Bogus, fraudulent wings of a former angel- who now weeps under our Feet in theory- Somehow, somewhere, I lost you within an epiphany That reeked of bliss and pleasure- Somehow, we end up losing Twins of the heavens when all is well. How wonderful. How wonderful it is, I say, to your lost, secretly-weeping figure That I can’t tell whether transparent or yellow your figure is. But I keep speaking- “Oh, how (falsely) wonderful it is- To love the first angel I’ve set my eyes upon- “Oh, how (falsely) wonderful it is- To lose an angel, no matter how phoney, to a social heaven.” - enriko. aug 5. 11:45pm

I have no idea What brought me here To this place, This mystical temple Of a sacred space But here I stand And my arms My heart are wide open Raised to the heavens As I pray Open to receiving miracles Open to the wonders Of this love And I wonder What an alternate universe May have brought But it is pointless For I am thankful And happy with what I have I am happy To have been created as me To have created and still To create And I am elated To a heavenly sort of place As my heart I do consecrate Raise my eyes to the stellar fires Bless each and one of my earthly And unearthly desires I pour the sacred water Upon my head Feel its coolness In the sparkling night I feel the divine essence from above Bless my spirit, Bless my soul I thank the Universe For keeping me whole For making me a woman, A mother A friend devoted For staying real, not sugar-coated For being blessed A sensual creature ****** delight a powerful feature) I am thankful for my strength And intellectual liberty And for my constant fight To keep myself Free And, most of all -- I am ever grateful For this divine opportunity… Ever humbled, as it is Bestowed upon me: To experience the profound inner light of my own emotions to give myself a gift of utter devotion to allow myself without inhibition the freedom of expression I was meant for To come into Fruition. Yes, in joy Yes, in wonder I raise my head to the heavens And take in the thunder

Our town was to have a rail-line Circa the mid eighteen nineties This story has surprised my ears A local amateur historian apprised me just recently Documents to support this claim are archived in Sydney Not far out of our town On a well know property in the district Two surveyor pegs are still in existence Marking the route the rail-line was to track Though the Forefather's rail-line was never bedded down The powers that be government leaders of the day Shelved these impressive plans They never saw the light of day Ribbons of steel not coming to fruition Leading to our town Other town went ahead rail-lines were established to them Out town alas and alack missed out Look where Tamworth and Armidale are to-day Rail being in their favor Our town was left to languish and to be dispirited Going no-where no-where to go Our Forefather's now lay in their graves Not quite resting in peace Their rail proposal for our town unrealized Good ideas die along with good intentions Hence their unsettled repose Our town could have been a regional town Industry and population dotting the landscape Rail would have assured our place The Forefather's rail proposal long since shelved Consigned into the passing vapor of time

Forefather's Rail Proposal
My problem is that I don't follow my intuition, even though it always comes to fruition. It took me some time to really you down. You had my head spinning, round and round. Ignoring the clues and the giant red flags. I still blame myself for everything you did that was bad. I trusted you with secrets, bit by bit. Was it all just too much for you? So, you had to split? Why should I feel guilty for being ignored? I'm the only one wondering, should I have done more. But that's the whole point of your fun and games. You emotionally strung me along like I was shackled in chains.   How many times have I apologized, for you hurting me because you're emotionally desensitized?

...Dealing with YOU...
No one is here and I feel at ease; I feel the recesses of my imagination spring forward as ideas are at the forefront of my mind, yet I cannot put them down on paper. I feel the neon pinks and blues and greens that I know strongly resonate with me, but to my dismay, nothing ever comes to fruition as much as I hope. That cliché phrase of, “The sky is the limit,” drowns me as I realize parameters and prompts are what guide me to what I truly want; the idea of freedom gives me anxiety, as I am a clueless ant on this plane. As I look at a solitary trashcan of impossible black, this idea of suffocation truly encompasses my mind, inescapable, unreachable, and unattainable. Yet at the same time, limits **** darlings. With this seeming paradox of open-endedness and limitation, I set forth on my prompt, however mundane it may seem now. This task seemed at first simple, but it proved difficult at times, like most mundane looking venues. My mind is not unlike a checkerboard stone table: cold and calculating; I feel my imagination dies when my fingers touch keys, when pen hits paper. “The sky is the limit,” drowns me over and over and over again. I look out of my peripherals and glance at the red building signs, wishing there was something as obvious as that for a sense of direction in my life. My imagination truly hates me, my imagination truly loves me; it is an indecisive companion. I wish I was alone, but my mind wishes otherwise.

The colors of my mind
our bread and butter...      *the web of stars,      the scatter of moons      and orbiting planets.* the entire universe harvested and crammed into the metre, of a poetic verse. our bread and butter...      *harnessing the regal rays of the sun.      inflating the fluff of quiet clouds.      drinking up the winds of the weather.      revering the magic in the flight of birds.* we fill our cups to the brim... with fantastical dreams and let spill over parchment the cornucopia of idealised words. our bread and butter... the incessant peeling and picking on healing wounds. of which we have learnt to savour...      *let bleed      the willing blood...      feed the seeds      with impending flood.* nurture to fruition thoughts stunted in discretion. bring to light thoughts hidden in the nether. our bread and butter... we dip... the nibs, of our word worn feathers. let them sink, shallow beneath the surface to the sanctity of a familiar place.      *casting our trials,      and tribulations...      pent up emotions,      and what we think      unto paper      with the burn of      everlasting ink.*
