Return me to the dream

Woke up breathless…my breath stolen with the realization that what I held in my dreams was more substantial more tangible, then the state reality forcibly returned me to with the dawn.

Oh Light, how false you prove…
Heathen dancing shamelessly and wild, Pan run amok
Blinded by possibilities and sun touched dreams;
Return me to Darkness, where the cloak protects all;
Enshrouded in loving denial and blissful ignorance.
Return me to the dream, where Morpheus or lucidity
orchestrate all, and the script and desire can be changed…
without reason or excuse.

First Snow

Awakened with a song in my heart
and a name on my lips
as Winter’s first kiss on the horizon marks a new season…
A sprite follows nature’s courses awaiting Spring’s song
With sad leave-takings behind
And hope before…

Advice #4: Put her name in song

Put her name in song
In prose
In a breath

Sing it with passion
With heat
With welcome
In peace

Into the air as Prayer
Magic in syllables and color

Fear and ego abandon themselves to the appeal,
while the Arrow with an Honest Goal
finds its Prey, True…

On Pain

Pain
Dark,
Regal bruised
Throbbing
Dull
Persistent
Silently Deafening
Congested
Thick like Molasses...
A Purgatory of Perpetual Annoyance
Distracted till Ruin by a knell's Itch
One holds their Breath
In hope of Release...
