"glaucous" poems
Cockcrow harbour: the gulls whining like tethered dogs about rooftops paliophobic cars and grounded vessels.. Look: on the hoary horizon a glaucous strip beguils with backwater. Not putting on a show the frigid sea benumbed.. Easily, with a tail of emerald jelly skim a vanishing lane off that lustrous sheet and watch the trailblazing mainland scuttle. Now, Only scattered dreaming is possible. In it's bachelor pad, cradling over crinkles, away from the meretriciosness of validating the real by sharing it, THE WIND blusters off any veneer. Here, stale but spry, fare your way around the inoffensive isle to it's most shyest of harbours: a mouth full of silver saving it's breath. The windows facing the sea seem black & white, their wooden frames hooked to the wind, the splattered gulls meow your name in a way that's personal. Of course comes to mind. The pines are demanding a visit, They're whispering so you can hear them, each as different as every snore, these pines know how to grow in the sand and still reach for the Nimbostratus with heads in unison. The spaces between their trunks illuminating the blazing needles raining down painting the ground familiar to your lover's skin texture: Feel her closeness from jilted borderwatchtowers as she speads her mire like no one's watching: weedy and sugared with bellflowers, the waves in her shallow armpit billeting a pair of white swans: demurely they float sometimes as pillows and sometimes as question marks.. Go ask the seasoned locals, they say the bones she parked when she let her ice sheet melt are portals to her noble underbelly. Hidden in the woods reminiscent of your heart, the red tank-sized stone is sealed, but what the lighting reach cannot the rain shall sluice apart dumbly. And though her hair has come to be the moss black and hoarse as sailor's beard, there is still time. The void says her noisy neighbour is nothing to die for. The theadbear car with absent doors incites to drive her in reverse gear to the first few days of holidays: her golden locks a-blaze, her arm around your hind-sighted doppelganger.

Everything we see is it’s pristine essence casting the same light from the womb of darkness. Gripped by the dolor of a glaucous sky, love's longing reminds us that nothing is ever truly lost to anything less than the visual acuity of a heart. Unseen signs never give up their quest for being seen. With a slight tilt of the head, the light of the heart changes... and so does everything, everything.

Everything
the stars do not align like they do every now and then not as we drove through glaucous willows not as the stelliferous night twinkled with promise through the sky roof not as my cupidity for you not as we danced in each other's arms paradisally not as the lanugo on our bare limbs blazed a golden white as we watched the sun rise the stars did not align for us. we loved like antipodes - if antipodes did not love.

THE STARS DO NOT ALIGN
Not ill, But thriving in light. Not envy But wanting more: To be understood for who I am. Not growth, But becoming-- Changing to match my Guardian angel. Not what they believe, But cool and crisp, Cucumbers in a salad, Blending in unnoticed. Today I feel like green.

Glaucous
after work you stood by my car in the fade of a dim glaucous morning with black cut off gloves, did I want to spend the day with you? I can feel the fibers of your black pea coat on my cheek, still.

Hallmark, Last Year.
“And only the azure painted sky to shake the rain from its sound,” so the plain falls, opening its mouth through a bed of headstones dotted with the hollowed trunks of magnolias and cedar at afternoon and that cameo of calamansi velour interwoven with the softest glaucous velvet. Inside that whirlpool of sacrosanct textiles a blur, that shocking shrill of coolness catches the skin- this hole-covered schmata oozing cesious acronychal threads pull tight across the hooves, branches, and stream. Only the thin repelling flume of winter’s height eschews this ianthine material over the sinews and map-lined bones. A corpse shortening its gaze, eyes stone-free, empty of nictitation. Nothing stings more than autumn’s filemot sins scraping sideways down a tiled balcony, and the dove’s beg like circus rats, shaped by the finite breaths of decade’s old poetry edging its moods like a bold inflammatory conflagration of the de-evolution. While the fulvous trammeled dirt abounds.

The Surveyor’s Reprieve
"A blue and gold mistake", Wrote Emily from inside her room, A self-inflicted tomb, About a path she could not take, Into the month of June. Let others stroll beneath its cerulean sky And thank the sward, on which they lie, A lunging into voluptuous play, Yet blinded to the rushing by Of sultry month and jovial day. Did the poet’s being kept apart From worldly joys well-made, Or from crystal pools and glaucous glades, From brilliant sun that fashions shade, Embitter her admiring heart To look askance at anything that fades? Did she not care that One month, though doomed to end, Was also made to reappear After the long march of winter’s year As the sun came round again, To loose us from our unlocked pens?

June
I took the seat across and breathe deeply Trying to ignite the will to last the night to make it easy Folios with galloping notes reflected my eyes Ascribing them as you started rippling nice Taking your place behind those keys while I guard the front as it seems You fiddled the catguts, and I learned their secrets And as you edify, I got lost in the sequence You exuded the decree to keep my valiance I lodged around the shadows keeping my silence Risking the chance that was left of me As I chant the cadence with complexity I ogled before you with such esteem As my mind creeps alone towards glaucous dream Wishing that in every thing written in the sky, You will always be my Marshall and I am your Spy

The Marshall and the Spy
on the bleak abyss of glaucous rock unending in its terrible splendor lay the two that hoped the longest. hands clasped, their breaths rasped, and one light faded more rapidly than the other. one lone final flickering candle let out a sob, succumb like the mob had before, serendipitously. fractured, shattered the sun rose baked the remains of lovers, and grew the purest of white desert daisies to commemorate that the tyrants had fallen at last.

some sort of sequel
The wimpled scrolls recede.... The Authors of the braille sands leave Northern marrow in their wording, as sharp as Marram grasses bent in keening subjugation.... Illuminated Sanskrit kelp, infused with lust of fallen auras, scrims the weed-green gartered breaks now shaken from the glaucous mane, while fleets of stippled cumuli, ( rain-chartered galleons of the West) in line astern, prepare for war beyond the deepened brim. We,- the town-worn Pages- flutter, drawn to trace the moiling hem, to pour away into the water.... Salt-preened minions of the wind.

Silvery glaucous leaves sail away from the trees -- Little crescent moons.

[ Silvery glaucous ]
Set the scene I'm drunk again Off our satisfaction Lifted off from a land Where I tell all You love me like you know I heal your love of lonely And you accept my embrace Like you know you need it But babe, so do I And your lips, soft and tender Make my heart stretch Wanting to kiss you stupid Make your face feel Like it will never be lonely As I pierce your glaucous bubble You come to life Crystal and reflective But visible all the same

Drawing all over the walls Red And Blue While Teaching me Chemistry Resonance and Polyatomic Ions Positively charged Eyes A cool grey You liked the writing On my Chuck Taylor’s Back at headquarters Trespassing in the Library To study Forensics and Anatomy One day I’lltte after palette Swirling brilliance Black Crimson And Glaucous
