"purpledark" poems
Part 1:
&words; spill out:
heart-hued as a sunset accident
steeped in courage
&staining; my night sleepless
∈ prayer
our hands raise up to caress this newnight,
&cast; scattered shadows like
spooked birds in flight
Part 2:
&inkscribble; spreads
fully across the tablet
of my sullied, aging heart.
Pages soaked&dying;
purpledark
weightedbeauty
after you speak the sunset-things
to fruition across the fields:
Nebraska solitude&desire;
Part 3:
&rising; again
on a third day, I must depart
&break; our day in two
(you&i;)
The sun&i; shatter time,
as the dawnmirror
remembering dusk
cracks today into the night
&words; escape
from parted lips&uncapped; pen
to fly above the broken world
as sparrows rising like
Son&Word; resurrected
pouring salvation on the stony soil
of our souls
like sundrench in spring
&script; winds verdant
vines around us
watered by heavenwords of
forever ago
Part 4:
&ink; fills up my bookheart
as I return it to a cage
&leave; the you&i; behind me
in a vagabond-blue nighttime
