I Have Two Sides
Are you in awe of me like I am of you?
Let’s make it obvious
Let’s have a hard time falling asleep
Will you lay in bed with 5 inch high heels on?
Will you wear garter belts and silk stockings?
Will you get a pedicure and think of me
I do want to be good
I do want to be in heaven
Can you take my splits?
My quirks
Can you write poetry that has fire?
Can I watch you put on your makeup?
Will you tease me until I can’t sleep?
Honesty in the details embarrasses me
I am a Christian but a lusty one
I have two sides

Lotus Symphony
Gourds, seeds, sticks from the desert
Music with base beat deep in dharma
Mystical college, orient sun
Woven in stars amidst the lost world
Call to the tribes
All the ghost legions
Cobra dreams
Sacred waters
Waiting for the chaos to depart
Ashrams, swarthy swamis
Karma in centuries
The world of conflict
No random stars
Everything in phases of becoming
Transcendence
Every note a prayer
Every phrase relief
A flight
A reckoning
Random wind

Knowing You're There
Snow melts in the warm sun
My streams flow to you
No one should be this lonely
Birds call in the forest
Red, blue, yellow
The song of spring
They find their sweet mate
Nests in the forest
Blue robins eggs
Why do we hurt one another?
Love is such fire
Are you there?
Can you hear me?
Acorns grow
Rivers swell with love
Hope makes me look for you
Roses haunt me
Starlight kisses the sea
I am twisted

Happy Anniversary
Open the naive door
Lovers without a real core
Paint your sordid refrain
Love sighs like a lions mane
Chaos on the moonlight sheets
We meet and die on frozen streets
Now you come again with dyed hair
Look into my hollow stare
We grovel in holes of rodents
Do we have love in ideal moments
No, we are the living end
I lay you without pretense
Have we broken all the rules
You wear your rubies and jewels
I hear your knock on my door
The dead come back for more

No More Islands
Blue green winds of cruelty
Novice medieval castle
Hellene temple turned to ice
They land with hard chains
Formulas of Atlas
Invasion
Ring the bells of Poe
All of them
Insidious wolf
Blanchard kingdom
We are the paint of Stalin
The dead dreams of gold
Sterile soul of utopia
You are vision
She sees the war of soul
Roman ships on fire
Her heart beats like dawn
Back on the narrow road

Jacob Wrestles
Coyote desert spins inwardness
Ramparts of seeing the base
Lions saunter like flames
Every vision weighed in fire
Masters of solitude rule
Brilliant stars from time
Essentials rise like hope
Golden gates of soul
Stripped by piranhas of self
Selfishness is punishment
The night howls like a wolf
Self-reflection sees everyman
Tremolos poets in golden sand
Forgiveness is an oasis
Vultures dwell in bitterness
Jackals live off carcasses
Water of love sighs
Rivers of the soul flow
Dreams bright as angels

Purple Dress
Emerald hope in the misty hills
The sea rescues meaning like a dream
Let the tides roll with wild poetry
You are an old kiln of love
Emerson brings words of golden stone
Granite ghosts in the winds
Poets ridge like a candle of eyes
Time brings grand shadows of Concord
Longfellow haunts the sun
Boston regal as a Irish maiden
First fruits grow like summer wheat
Amber December
Litany with quiet satin
Laughter in the third person
Stars appear
Moonlight sings
Vapor vows glow
Red and blue make purple
Your purple dress of sage desire

Eyes Without Tears
Eyes without tears sullen and alone
I listened to the bitter wind
Every rustling breeze
Only compassion feels beauty
Prancing pride accumulates time
Withered notions of life
We only have our eternal hearts
We own nothing except what’s inside
Every mask only leaves us empty
Images of the fallen swirl
Success becomes a hollow soul
Empathy reaches for the tree of life
Your island of pleasure is desolate
Only love grows a garden
Thorns and thistles in a maze
Tenderness rebukes all idols

Grand Plan
Supple as time the constant pace
Death has no legacy
Searching for strength
Plans can be roots
Grace is there in sublime simplicity
Design a testimony of such intricacy
Meditation sees across the meadow
No religion can paint the picture
Goldfinches in the erudite wind
Communion of shadow and morning
Awake into your choices
Awake into a marvelous place
Awake into what you see
Outside of yourself is a real world
Joy is a deep sea deeper than you
Even my cat reflects the stars
Love shines with every sun
Awake into the grand plan

Year of Jubilee
Midas belier of the mammon dark
Sparkle your tentacles of neon caress
Strata of lost soul
Coconut milk on islands of fear
The judgment of industrial might
The separate man of golden god
Made of bias and false goals
Gala of prejudice
Retreat into the lost kingdom
Narrow gates shelter the meek
Ire of status
Labels burn in your coffin
Serene shelter at the cross
Values born in Gethsemane
All this stolen land
Stolen identity
Slavery
Man incapable of divine justice
These nations shall die by the sword
