"watershed" poems
'Healer' time take thy poor, black sheep, and stop it from wondering in the dangerous corners of the mind, because heaven and hell collided inside a body and in unity they came in the presence of all those who conspired to it. From the frontal to the occipital lobe, dark thoughts obstruct the brain’s watershed regions and thanatos they bring. The soul cannot take this coffin anymore. The stone is too heavy to carry; sliding down and pushing up, every night the pushing starts, for the dawn, her courage to crack. It may be like Hooke's law they say, but bodies break down, when people apply the extra force and so do the souls, long before.

Drawing
A pivot, A ****** A watershed Been miserably waiting for dawn in my head Then the day came A day my mismatch soul and body met I fed on your words and voices Wolf down everything from you and store them up Taking mental snapshot in the dark And prepare myself for yet another brutal week I fed on tasty food and a good mood Treat myself with something tangible Glutton is never a sin for me I fed on fantasies.

The hanky he was sobbing into was crusty, ***** unwashed, unclean; yet strangely comforting to a little boy, as he cried he made his way to a culvert behind the school, some place the other kids couldn’t see him crying, it was more comfortable being near rocks -next to that watershed for some reason? He looked down at his antagonist, the scaly-green feet, they made him cry harder, he lamented… “Why have I been tormented so?” “Who gave me these feet? Who made me this way, lizardly, scaly, an animal no?” “What class am I, what species? Are those toenails, claws or a disease?” “The way I’m treated makes me sad. Where is my mommy, where is my dad? “Did I come from an egg? Didn’t we all? Why do they pick on me, make me feel so small?” “My feet are reptilian even I can see that!” “Am I part lizard? Are there horns on my back?” “I can’t hide in sneakers ‘cause the claws tear them apart.” “Not great at math, language or art.” “They always pickin’ on me, today it’s in the schoolyard.” “That is why I sit here on the rocks crying with my ugly feet and sullen heart,” “Cannot run fast so no baseball, basketball or soccer…” “The other kids tried to stuff me in my own locker…” “One mean little girl even threw a dead mouse at me!” “But I’m only part lizard as far as I can see?” “My English teacher says that my words are like a bird song” “If I talk like a birdie along with monster’s feet, no wonder I don’t belong!” “Even still, to be so mean to me, I know that it is wrong…” “ONE DAY I WILL SHOW THEM ALL, THESE FEET THEY HAVE A PURPOSE!” “MY WORDS OF SONG AND FEET OF MAGIC COMBINE A COSMIC CIRCUS!” “I am no freak of nature, no forest Pan or Satyr…” “It is not the way I look, my clothes or feet that matter…” “It is what is in my heart and mind, the things I do that truly count…” “For those things that make us different, for they are tantamount…” “Seven heads, seven stages, seven fables, seven sages” “Seven stars and seven wonders and seven heavens that we’re under…” “And all those things they say are great and marvelous about us…” “Will one day be written in the book by Great Old Uncle Taautus!” *

At the beginning Is an open sea Knowing nothing But its own Owning every Beach it met Not knowing enough to feel alone After many Long years it finds There is much More for to see Inlets and outlets On every shore A sense of greater freedom to be free The sea joined To many rivers Seeing land On either side Freedom then became Just a memory The river's end was not in sight But along the way An Ocean Watershed Joining rivers to the sea It had to sleep In many river beds To see what it was meant to be Down in the river Flowing headlong To the sea Joining the River's rage That is where I long to go That is where I am meant to be.

Against the saturated Horizon of dawn, Loitering in the dark timbre Of emerging consciousness - Dissipating somnolence And preemptive despair, Tacitly adumbrate the Yawning abyss. Chastened by the cunning and Lubricious nihilism, Igniting fermented provocations, Silent subterfuge; death, By mirth - the inane; Lament of the mundane. Fallow paradigms, accretions of The last gasp - Evaporating empty liturgies Of suspicion; Charity and equanimity - Lost in confinement, Triumphant avarice bearing Descendants Of intransigence; Wielding imperious Schemes of orthodoxy. Pollard fragments of Silken tapestry, Miasma draped depression Abridging; Conversely, Permuted flurries of anxiety Dislodge The vestiges of meaning That abide In brazen equivocation. Tributaries of dogma reach Their confluence, Watershed moment,   Numinous effusion Streams naked epiphany, The precarious vision - A gesture of providence, Certainty and contingency; Gratuitously derivative, life Equals choice. Verdant branches of intention; And opportunity the vine, Live forward - The pen, my voice, Piquant conduit pouring, Exuberant wine. Footprints found in givenness Underline, Penumbrae of my soul; Mirrored silhouettes, Thoughts and words engender; And in verse adorn Fecund soil, Line after line, The cosmos altered, Continuum of permanence - Artist’s art articulating Essence of my imagination, I proliferate, I design Phrases unique, Participation mystique. Words creating world, The apparatus of infinity Heidegger, ontologically precise, Language - The house of Being, Ineffable, Promethean Literary devise - Envisioning possibility, And abundance to allow, I occur Inhabit Manifest Future phenomena Experienced as now. ©2008 & ©2011 W.S.

when you start feeling as if just being you     is not enough ,.. when you see the sunlight slipping away sliding into the ocean and the outbound tide     is pulling strong ,..    gravity throbs downward ― you see it's weight groan pacing in lonely eyes, you feel it's burden bear down on a wayfaring stranger    wandering away alone ,.. wondering what went wrong stalled by a riverside frozen in time ; walking on slippery rocks and fallen stars, searching for peace along the meandering shoreline the waterfall surrenders a river's silent lament ; the storm gales' surge stirs the urge for moving on a heart broken knows how fickle tides change which way the wind blows ,.. which way the rain      comes falling down ― watershed moments undulating serpentine rivers, unbridled terrain waters veritably cascading  beyond blurred latitudes, uninhibitedly drifting      in shapeless symmetry ― a deep ocean rises with the calling tide's murmur,   the shorebirds linger ; hole up with the peace of the unsullied sands at the sea stained       tide-mark ― barnacles cling to the pulse of the tidal sway where starfish hold on to    slippery rocks ,.. being enough to while away just a little bit longer ― to simply let it all be and wholly wash out in the water waiting for the tide change, to swallow whole the rivers stagnant flow, immersing     the stars in swirling silence ― in the unrestrained     rhythm and the sea ...

Slip Slidin' Away
To my dear son, Boaz in distant Idaho, Saturday nite, the whole of New Zealand waited in apprehension for the All Blacks rugy team to play the resurgent Wallabys @ Fortress Eden Park. The previous week at Suncorp Stadium in Sydney, in driving rain, the All Blacks muddled through a painfull draw with the Wallabys, 12 points each with no tries. The Wallabys had fancied their chances and had wanted an emphatic win on home soil. Both teams took that score as a loss and the gauntlet was thrown for the second match….. A brilliant evening, clear and fine , 50,000 people crushed in to Eden Park and you could feel the apprehension, the rest of the country sat in front of their TV willing the team on. The Haka was given a brutal rendition, you could feel the determination, the passion emanating….the Ozzies glared their defiance back…it was all on! 10 minutes into a titanic struggle with the score three all Captain Ritchie McCaw had a brain fade and was yellow carded off for ten minutes by the French referee. The crowd roared…then murmured their worry  like you’ve never heard before. The Ozzies mustered a huge scrum which the All Blacks countered with one man down…. The counter ****** pushed the Australian scrum back 15 ft. Every man in New Zealand was on his feet roaring, you could feel the spirit of nationalism soaring….the moment was a watershed. The All Blacks counterattacked showing a brilliance in attack and defence we have not seen for years… and from that moment on the game was won. Final score 51:20 The Bledisloe Cup was ours. As the match finished the TV camera panned across the solidly black clad crowd…. I have never, ever in my life, seen so many, simultaneous, sets of white teeth grinning! The trip home to Australia would have been… a very subdued affair. Thought I should share this marvellous moment with you Boaz. Luv Dad.

I was the jubilee runner You were the southbank stroller Carried away in your hair I turn to see you turn, To turn my steps into Paused awkwardness On the platform to my Heart you stood, standing Me still dead in my tracks You were April’s showers Raining down on my grey Metro , the girl outside Waterloo station, The one sharing my Thoughts unspoken Watershed second I was London’s haze Set adrift in your eyes Parted, but closed around Your boho-chic attired Kohl hairedness I see you Southbank bound In my eyes forever Open note to the Sky you set me adrift In, in that shy second You were I, were we, Were us, less them All we, paused in the throng Framed in my clickety Clacking jubilee my Train-track love Story, I was the jubilee Runner to your Southbank stroller

Train-track Love
Maybe water runs uphill From the ocean's bursting treasures Of salts, silts, sands Marshalling at the estuaries Spawning rivers, as pioneers Oozing into coastal plains A brackish caravan rolling Inland to new-found-land Beyond the rule and will Of the tide's spill where Drought and dry spells Sweep like wraiths ******** on thieving winds Throwing heartless dusty curses Picking off stragglers In slacks and backwaters Or caravanned through known channels Paying taxes to the thick-rooted soil For passage upstream Past thirsting leaf and bough Every mile hard-won Til the watershed haven Of bog and lochan Corralled safely among peaks There to farm the cloud and mist And to see blossom, in good years A deep harvest Of cold, clean snow

She said she'd pinprick your watershed Leave alone , it must be bled A cold and somewhat silent shiver went through you She tossed your hair with fingers flared Before she rapes your lips she says she cares And cautions ,"I am no where near through with you ." She rips your shirt , rakes your skin Over and over again Till blood trickles down upon you She licks you dry And praises the sky saying, "God is jealous of you guy ." Then she sits upon your lap Knocking off your tip top hat And throws a ****** to you The first and third lines rhyme She takes away your time Makes you scream in agony and ecstacy All of mercy . , . More on mercy . , . Tasting pain  . . .coated in pleasure The memory lingers Burning like a scorpions stinger And now your mallingered aren't you The second and fourth are lines of choice Developed rhythm for the course And you grade your decisions running through you She left you dead , hurt your head And then she fled Tossing your heart into the river Your grateful that you live but still you go on and grieve Or at least wished you did As you are trying to relate All you do is quake And start to uttering "All on mercy . . . More on mercy . . . Have mercy  . . .on me ."

Chapstick for ***** lips
That watershed moment when the eye goggles comes off, is akin to winning the Burleigh Horse Trials with the much coveted Trophy. Meeting a Rambler as an equal on an arduous fog clouded valley along the Devil's Punchbowl, or a French Phrase Book that's almost perusal by nature, under the Arc de Triomphe How I long to be accomplished as one of the few, rather than a casual follower of Velleity .

Glacier National Park, Lower Quartz Lake Wednesday August 12, 2015 Day 1 of the backpacking trek. Our tent next to the still waters. Eventide respite. Deborah reflecting in solitude at sunset. Quiet with a gentle breath of mountain air. Without an updraft to soar and glide upon, the eagle, nesting in the range of the watershed, has retired for the day. A pair of Common Loons and four Hooded Merganser prepare for the nights cooling, moving in the glossy water toward their rest, gentle lines tracing as the water crests and falls behind. Black swifts emerge from the shadows, dancing near the lake to feed on twilight insects. The orange sky and red orb of Sol are a prelude to a multitude of stars as the world turns into darkness.

Solitude at Lower Quartz Lake
Rivers dry up, except The Mississippi. If/When That particular long and wide And fat and deep Body of Wa-Wa Completely dries up, The World, as SK Was fond of saying of Roland of Gilead and the Shadowed Spire, "Has moved on." Monstrous Glaciers partied hard inda MIDWEST! For, like, endless freezing Nights and equally Chill-laxing daze, Man! Man? Dude! Dudes? Little dudes With spears takin' on The Mammoths! No WAY! Way. They'll not outlive and OutLAST US, My Frozen Bros! (But we had fire, the roasting Kind and the hot burning Coals within our spirit, Fire to perpetuate our Species through endlessly Cold nights and days) Whoo-Hooo! Dude! You plowed DEEP last night, Bro! What's that stuff on yer Brow. Sweat? Hey is it me or is it Hot in here? Dudes? We're like SMALLER Irregardless, or Re, the You SSS of A has a large dent In its midsection. Because those partying Glaciers were forced back Into polar hiding, shedding Great earthen chunks of their Fatty selves, carving and Slashing The most fertile watershed In the country. Their ageless and Timeless enemy, that Bright Yellow Orb, Opened its great Cyclopean eye, and Focused, yet again, Blessed rays of light Heat, and life. The melting... Water lying on the ground, Unsure? How about we start a Pool? I bet it'll pay Off to flow on not-flat ground, the Pool collapses and begins flowing With purpose, streaming Together as a larger Body of water: The Miss 'Sippi. Any number of Numberless great and lesser Lakes up North Decided to be hole- Y. Gravity Did the rest.

Callow birds shimmering highlights of lilacs on it’s busted mantle. The lamppost tungsten is a wax doll candle. Paraffin paragraphs jotted down on clouds in paradise. Throwing a tea party at the neighbours lewd front lawn. Resting place of my weary head. Wearing our mountain tops//your shoulder, my heart’s hearth and watershed.

Essential lyrics for my muse.
Like a toothache its always there that little bit of doubt that ***** with me. I forget about it once in a while on busy days, on days I spend fixing things but on other days I can hardly breathe, the weight of my existence oppressive, the fear that letting go might overwhelm me or you --or us --or create an awkward angle, a weapon to wield in future wars. I know you wonder where I go and if I knew I would have already shown you instead I frown to hide the fact that I am happy. You are everything I’ve always wanted, your vulnerability sincere of course you know I’d never hurt you but how can you tell through the fog of my hiding? You say you know me like no other, you see behind my eyes, you see my inner workings, you hold my heart in your hands and still I pretend to be in control, invincible, invulnerable.   l rely on music too much to touch my soul And I sense you sometimes wish you were the music so you could touch my soul but you already are and you already do. I’d give you my soul but honestly I’d rather you take it by force, tie me down and **** me, but time the great teacher tells you that in that watershed moment an awful lot could go wrong. I want to promise you it would be fine but I can’t. I want to give in and let you overtake me passionately, overrun me sexually, I can feel the blood flow, I imagine your soft lips, your eagerness, don’t ever let me discourage that part of you. But isn't it selfish that I would ask you to carry on at the peak of the universe with one foot in heaven and one foot in hell with no guarantees either way? Like a spark to dynamite my fuse when lit might run or walk, take its time, fizzle out, rush to finish no one knows, least of all me. You only want what is yours by right I want you to want it as well

Deep on the other side of the loom . The other side of a dangerous smile. Stands the one who knows all my lurid secrets . Barefoot in a homespun dress one hand against the wall. Water runs shallow over the rocks across the fields . Crickets chirping in the cool night air . A thousand moments swirl over us . An ancient wind carries our secrets. Rolling waters , crickets in our ears suddenly we were young and in the mountains again. Broken compromise and forgiveness to balance the passion and the need . Blood and roses , a sweet kiss from the dragon . Laughter is the lyric, Love is the music a watershed melody that never gets old . We are lost in the recession of time . As three quiet birds try to throw shadows on our love .

Looming Smile
You said I had a face like                  cinder blocks at sunrise: Ash grey staining                  red in the ending night. The late winter cold leaked down into my bones. You pulled my hood up, kissed me once and walked home.                                 I was a weak                                  kneed floater                                  that night. It was a month to forget buried heart dents and debts. You let me ride on the back of one more losing bet.                                  The deck's cut,                                     it's raining                                        outside If I had        one more card tucked up my sleeve, I'd lay it down                       you wouldn't play                       'cuz your hand's weak Game's no fun. Folding. Heading straight out the door                    Cashed in your chips and that's fine.                    I'll take off and try to stay dry. Your living room was greyscale                  blue and white at midnight. Ash on my tongue,                  had X's in my eyes. I'll choke down the bile building up in my throat-- this mouth full of crow. I'll walk out, grab my coat.                               from your couch                              turn the **** and                                        I'm gone. It was a month to forget buried heart dents and debts. You let me ride on the back of one more losing bet. Kick up my heels, over pavement, walk home. Half-rain and half-snow. Half a mile left to go.                                     the jig's up                                and our steps were                                       all wrong. Let's take this       time to find some ground for standing. Thawing out,                       I'll leak away                       with the meltwash. One more week draining to the Columbia                    and your front step'll be dry.                    ...and your front step'll be dry...

i feel like something is lost something that has no name no colour no smell i was shown my face today i had to hear what you did to me i had carried myself without crutches or aids i had trodden quietly where i could i feel an immense loss for the innocence you ***** the love you choked the gifts you broke if this is what i escaped, why do i feel like grief? i am cold here now i dont want to remember what you did but i cant escape it either the bloodlust in your eyes the ****** in your hands the physcial hurt you bestowed upon me i trusted you with my life and you throttled it untill it died i am stronger than then i hope i am stronger than then i think i am stronger than then please, god, let me be stronger than then why do i feel like something has died? when i have won by leaving your abuse? maybe, the death of my self-image the mask i thought had worked they saw through it all and they knew that you were drowning me and now they see how i am shining away from your shadow maybe, now i can have my watershed

grieving for shattered mirrors
Blue rain downpour. My suffering soul. At first only mist then come onerous swells. Ticker tick-ticking retorting the angst, I heave and I shudder in fear of what comes. A palpable mirage. The peaceful torrent. My martyr’s quest.    Redolent of barb laden roses. My soul urges detour, my screams cry retreat, yet somehow I savor the scent of this place. I have fallen, absorbed by its lie, to search for enchantment in grief soaked clouds. so please leave me be, acutely aware, this pain that I love is my watershed dance.

message in a bottle
Voice vibrations Keep them together fasten/ transcending trends fashion/wear on you ever lasting birthday suit/ if the boot fits suit yourself Cinderella/ if you lose it the truth reflects in the mirror/ full of suspense save the dramatics/ chasing after the light a foreshadow/ all the hype ain't write anticlimactic/ ring around the Rosie/ plagued million ways to die hyperbole?/ a watershed moment pivotal talk is affordable/ But those that inscribe the inside of ones mind/ from pictures form designs which illicit and describe/ can alter mankind/ priceless
