"illuminations" poems
Brother. You are a vampire. Why do you lust for blood? Brother. They have found out now. Your death is certain. Detest that agony. Writhe with rage. You will be lynched, And burned in the sun. Brother. You are a Vampire. Royalty runs in your veins. You lust for blood. Like a peasant for coins. Die now. In royal vain. You ended your world. When you ****** the life, Out of the child. That boy.

Brother. (Illuminations of War: Story)
A sensuous sound eagerly heard by my raw soul, a sound like an angel whispering and kindly teasing The scent of the salty breeze caressing and stirring my senses My heart ceases at the sight of the swelling ocean, like a forgotten friend Twinkling illuminations twirling on the swaying saturated skin Impatient to be at one with the rhythmic sways to mother natures heavenly work of art Each time the images are transformed I believe that this is my first time and I have been unseeing to this utopia

Tallow The candle and I bear witness to the long, lone, and restless night. With a match, we bring ourselves to light brilliant reminders of finer days past. forced forth out of love not meant to last, We complement each other in our fading vigilance, twisting, smoldering, struggling we fall, exhausted or, dripping We grow ever small. Used, they saw the one true answer, and so it was the only light. No will, no arms with which to fight, no rival to the endless stars,  the all shared night a sky that taught the world to dance. Symbols of hope and knowledge not brought into this world by chance. To flicker and hiss or  claim our right. Wax sealed the deed and blinded our sight. Born to burn and ever so fast. Brilliant reminders of those finer days past, wrought for a purpose, understanding, it was never to last. Illuminations are made, in shadow we cast. Those that sputter and waver, gutter and wane, flee before storms, slip from the reins. Yet from us, the lights still glow, revealing the truths the Greats longed to know. Some writhe . Others twinkle   I smoke and then fall until there is nothing left of us at all. Here but once, and once alone Is it just once, and all from a spark? Our essence is , YEARNING not Dawn, nor the Dark.

Elixir
Civilized mankind has a unique way, To party and celebrate a most special day. Potassium and sulfur, mixed with some coal, Can reduce a mountain into the hill of a mole. Gunpowder is thought to have China as a start, Ceremonies commence, fireworks a part. I always thought, it amusing to find, Warfare and festival are two of a kind. Powerful explosions that disable and destroy, Have the ability to give the masses such joy. Here we go, let the bash begin, Guaranteed to give, your face a grin. Let's add some luminosity to this summer blast, Firecrackers and sparklers make the jubilee last. Pinwheels are nailed safely to a tree, Furiously twirls colors for all to see. An aerial assault aloft, hear them roar, Yellows and greens, in the air they will soar. Flash flaming fluorescence, blue and red, Envelop your eyes, dancing in your head. See the trail of a missile, zipping in flight, Shiny illuminations, all through the night. On the ground at the end of a fireworks show, Blazing stars and stripes, a flag created, watch it glow. The fourth of July is America's time, A birthday blowout, drinks with lemon and lime. This frolicking is filled with food, family and fun, Independence day, I wish it never was done.

Fireworks
The waitress sends signals in neon code, through Christmas illuminations stretching across the car-park, and straight into my ***** orange. She laughs through awkward platitudes, and all the beards that comment on her skirt. She's working to make a living, somewhere down the line. I watch as she scribbles poetry on old receipts, eyes glossing over the ketchup stains, and into the passing of the moment. I hope that she is writing of escape; of better times and better sleep. She will smash the glass ceiling, and save us from the greenhouse effect. Baritone singers lure her into art, into the promise of soft-hearted men with a resilient chest. The waitress waits for a signal to restart her life. There will be flares on the horizon, there will be new lovers leaning on their cars in the sun. She will finally get to sit. She will thank the waiter for her drink.

I dreamed my own death, last night: dug down deep through dirges and dingy old dirt my bed and my tomb are one and the same. like a blanket the dirt piles above and like a mattress the dirt layers below. it gets so tiring, sometimes; sleep is a cousin to death. there are loved ones sobbing far away and others laid around me, lost and caught among the endless eddies and streams of neverending loneliness that we all have felt, some time. it is a common experience, a collective, conscious thought-- we float up and out of our bodies, our gases and our atoms mixing with the dirt, the mud, the worms and the bodies and the ever-lost matter of countless others come before and countless more come after. we are all living in order to die as after our death there will be nothing added and nothing left; the base materials, the elements and bits of star stuff have always been and always will be even when they are not us. really, it is the accepting of our own demise-- our ashes to ashes and the plastering of the dustiest of dusts that shall settle and lay on thick in layers and levels of lost and loopy illuminations of a mind that is filled with holes and rot.

illuminato
You have subconsciously immortalized yourself On the ceiling of my room. I didn’t know you, then. We were just learning to hold hands and Walk to the same rhythm and you didn’t know How much my heart yearned for you. You didn’t know that, then. You bought me glow-in-the-dark stars And we rushed home to stand precariously on the bed Just for the sake of Orion’s Belt. We turned out the lights and I showered you, Sprinkling the tiny illuminations all over your soul. We stargazed and cuddled close until our eyes Started to gently close And under the warmth of what must have been a thousand Beams of light I believe we began

Who is I? In the Now. I am of true boi essence. A writer, a recluse, abandoned only of fate: Destiny ever alluring in the palm of my hand. Limited only by my own inabilty to be present in only one consciousness. I am split between reality strings. A permeant spectre, caught betwixt parallel dimensions. At times incoherrant, lost in esoteric translation. I am physic(al) - I of breath + flesh, perception being my holster, corruption my armoury. Intuitively, i am harmonious, sanctonious, welcoming of illuminations and the darker side of each unfettered moon. Awareness sleeps by my side. Each waking minute guarded. of commonality. I am enlightened. I am bouyant. mobile, fluid-like in kinesis. Conventional existense being the foundation over which i fly. Arms outstretched, willing risk to be my pull. Enticing Love to be my drag. balance, mediums, equilibrium. Lifted high amidst winds roaring with possibility. I am stark in naked complication, although often prone to cover up in cynical, self critical analysis. I am given of self; being the taker a refreshing discourse to which i stray accordingly. Of culture i am a liar. By nature i tend towards honesty only straying when survivalistic path need tread. I am of blood, private yet optimistically open to scarring. By custom i am trained, civil, content. Of instinct; native raw tongue, i am rampant, rapid in force, compelled to grow then emerge. Only. To submerge is to take full scope. i am telescopic in view of A/all else to which i drown my vision. I am unsure if i am young, Although certain that my passage is still being lit by the glow of its entrance, dark passageways luring with their shadows and cavernous corners. I am liberal, random in speculatory silence. I am idle, often motivated by industrial desire. Mechanical in process, structured of cerebreal architecture, yet somewhat discombobulated in particularity. Sporadic be my strain, its think tank choking always on the weeds of sorrow. Essentially i am nothing: yet overwhelmingly everything. I was I am I will therefore i Exist to i as A/all and nothing. As yesterday is to tommorrow, and visa versa, i am a window, a door, a channel: as closed as i am open. Dependant only on my own deliverence of influence and potential. Driven by the promise of future and the demands of my past. I am a vehicle in time, my presence, my motion, my journey is I.

A dim flame flickers, as if it were dancing to a rhythm.. as if it were alive, as if it was reflecting a life. It fights with itself... extinguish, breathe, extinguish, breathe. The light bounces off its surroundings, Doing a tango with its shadow. Light, darkness. Good, evil. Strength, weakness. It casts demons on the wall, It casts illuminations on the wall. A light breath, threatens its dance, while the tiny wick struggles to provide life. A drop of oil, fuels the glimmer, while the air whirls by, jeopardizing its fate. A dim flame flickers, bobs and weaves, jumps and jives, flashes and sparks. A war between the elements, Fire, air... Air, fire. Radiating beauty, Providing a glimpse of hope and soul, Chaotic and raw, Wild and free, Magnificent and untamed. Embrace the dark and honor the shine, Love the twilight and be engulfed in the magic.

Our Dear Mother Father God, I am thankful for every blessing you send. And have gifted us throughout all the ages of our existence. The present. The past and the futures to come. If I may ask of you, please, as you have touched my spirit, let others see my souls illuminations. A glowing of your infinitively divine love and mercy. Touch all things. My brothers, sisters, the soil and growth, the animals and trees. All of us, together on this earth. We all vibrate with your melody. A techicolor sound. Hums and wispers of you. I ask of one more thing, if I may. Spark curiosity of this glow that we have deep within our souls. Let others see the colors, the light, the joy and the peace. The comfort. Let it spread across the nation, like the burning down and building up of a new tomorrow. I pray, the fear in our hearts transends into a journey, an adventure for truth. That we may live as one. One world. One harmony. One Humanity. If I may, a prayer for others. Those who are lost. Confused. Broken. Let us forgive those who need forgiven. Help those who need help. And love everything as we love ourselves. May all the asended Masters, Guides, Teachers, Travelers, Marters, Angels and Archangels and every being that possess your divine love and light, join us on this journey. Let us all sing one song, hum one melody, and whisper one name. As we travel forth to worlds unseen and dimensions unknown, as we journey along this earth, exploring every beauty you have created for us to discover. A treasure hunt for the ages. We love you Mother Father God. Namaste. Blessed be. Ashe. Salaam. Shalom. Amen.

To have two eyes as sharp as your tongue is a gift. Two whale shaped almonds on your unbearded canvas that you used to use to sink ships and freeze rain. Piercing circles need to be charged by sleep and colby-jack, not dregs of java and illuminations of the glowing apple that you feast on, now. Raging oceans blue and green have been lulled by the sticky mucus dams of sleepy-tears that you built with your own body while your dreams sang:                                                                                            *Farther, sail, further, boy                                                                                             Look not back for fear is coy                                                                                             Vaster, seek, faster, man                                                                                             You must, oh, must reach the planned.* Pencils and papers and screens and gin have stilled your eyes and dried them of all power,                               Cyril, In the staring glass you,           search for an oceans depth all you find is a hollow skull, bone dry, running wet only with blood.

Elegy for the Self
To have two eyes as sharp as your tongue is a gift. Two whale shaped almonds on your unbearded canvas that you used to use to sink ships and freeze rain.

To survive And sustain itself, Life Must eat life / in this physical plane In our pains and stains Everyday we feel Our souls drained Of chi’s otherness Illuminations Just “because” unforgivingly We are warring With our selves for goodness sakes For love in life Do not mistake My kindness is not weak Still Their’s needs please Society’s Pleasantries Wolf in sheep’s clothing Thick skinned To survive That there These here     skids                 The secret war’s Begun Forgive me for having been Remiss Asleep Almost lost who now I am or was But beyond the human sufferings Painful lack Of Beloved Love All as One Light is Mums the word.

I’m Not Afraid to Die
Something ―for the children of the Holocaust and the Nakba by Michael R. Burch Something inescapable is lost— lost like a pale vapor curling up into shafts of moonlight, vanishing in a gust of wind toward an expanse of stars immeasurable and void. Something uncapturable is gone— gone with the spent leaves and illuminations of autumn, scattered into a haze with the faint rustle of parched grass and remembrance. Something unforgettable is past— blown from a glimmer into nothingness, or less, which finality swept into a corner, where it lies in dust and cobwebs and silence. It was my honor and privilege to work with survivors of the Holocaust and Hiroshima on translations of their poems and accounts into English. What they have told us is unutterably sad, and saddest of all is hearing about the lives of children being full of horror and terror, only to be cut short. Unfortunately today Palestinian children in Gaza and the West Bank are experiencing something similar, a modern Trail of Tears ...

Something
Of all the ways you've laid waist to the Fortressess of Love I ***** in the realm of my emotions... Of all the brittle limbs you send back crumbling on which once grew life I sent to you like pawns before me in this dry territory where the dust disturbs the view of the silvry illuminations in the sky... Of all these things I've said, and the things I've not said... At least, they let me know that you know I'm alive.

Of All These Things
I wasn't raised as a lady with three brothers and a father to tie me down and beat sense into my girlish mind. But early illuminations brought dark realizations- as it seems a fool is favored. Feathered eyelids and buttered cheeks of these I knew nothing. Clumsy drugstore purchases to paint a face too young into beauty. The type they want to look at. Braces be gone! Glasses, so long! Sear these curls with an iron! So there, cursed mirror of murmurs!   The type they want to look at! Nay! He says that's not enough. And who am I to stop his hand spidering up my skirt. This is it. The type they want to touch. Wash your face off and all the scents and spots of whoever he was. Some are too deep, it seems they have seeped. *The type they want to **** You'll ruin your sheets if you cry like that- motherless infant. You cannot always need, you'll be the type they want to leave.

The Type
I witness the carnivalesque dance of illusion the self conscious telling of a familiar story a darkening tone, the synthesing of incompatible perspectives that cause an incandescent agony of self-inflicted wounds caused by the somatizing of events by others but leads to epiphanic illuminations the transformative energies of disintigration where all the beauty that is inherent in the ordinary becomes clear everthing lights up with the glow of the quantum expansion of great silences and I can retrieve from the unconcious something I know but have forgotten

To know.....To know....
Shades of violet clouds glide magically through the skyline, Being still for a moment only, Comb-liked precious yellow rays display themselves gloriously peeking only hints of green illuminations, Below, the vast lake reflects it's beauty where light falls and hides, Scattered, the silhouetted trees wait for dawn to greet them
