I'm just as pleased to Hunt as I am to release the Doe and Hart...so you can be sure, I am not disappointed in the disapproval of others. As for me, I've decided not to let them Go from out the sight of my Arrows, and train my judgements upon the Moment well disposed to catch them fleeing.

I'm sorry that my poetic distraction proved too much a point of failing value for some...it was not my intent to frustrate. But, I am more patient than you may have guessed to abide what I know of Trial and Temptation. You may have known as much, in that I believe I estimated your Counsel well, not depriving them, or you, anything of what I know of the Heart.

I know, in Fact, many ways to perform the same Thing which others value for Understanding or Revelation or Healing, though it would not surprise if the Counsel you mention could argue otherwise. Again, it does not matter to me much nor thwart what I intend of my own Will and disposition, no apologize or justifications offered.

Perhaps some would be surprised how well I except Judgement and Accusation. In truth, I know that such binds another to me, for which cause, in part, I offer the opportunity for them to perform as much, which you yourself have not failed to own. This may, or may not, be a piece of good fortune or emblem of perfecting esotericism; but here again, it matters to me little.

However, here is something which I remember and will not let slip from my attention:

"However there is at least one entity which you house that is adversarial to our productivity, thus will not be allowed participation."

I must say, because it inspires this note, that this is a bold piece of Assertion. Whether YOU allow or not is quite besides the point, as I make no claim upon your favored Company or Counsel. But what I do lay claim to neither you nor another can thwart me in, and such is Mankind. Perhaps it would have meant something to the Counsel had they considered this before pressing me into confirming what I already know is the stuff of Discernment as regards the just dispositions of men. As I have received from them as much Judgement I am better inclined to pass onto others, my fellows, flock of caverned abusers: shadow men.

Having considered November well since last we spoke, I've been persuaded that it's too much a shame to waste what implements I have spent so long perfecting just to set them aside into the Vaults of my own Treasures, unused. Rather, for splendour of wonder I think they may better serve in Memory of Wrong and fitting Salutes to the Tears of Family too long crying for Remedy. I hope you don't misunderstand this as more than a mere choice, having reflected upon the State of the Whole affair. I am not so much determined that I cannot turn again to simpler ways and more graceful expectations, but I am satisfied that this Orientation is Just and Appropriate, such that I only think you deserve to witness the gathering, Moral Tumult. Serve as you may, and them your Counsel be satisfied in what may be performed for while yet is disposed...I wish well, truly."

PART II

THE VOYAGE OF ICE, WATER, AND AIR

JANUARY 26, 2004

 

 

 

I'm gonna rend a little slip in the Veil tonight

upper North West sky, behind my Pyramids

look for it by 4am

it glimmers till then, and sways to the Solar Winds...

a guess

how to start

the Turbines

and keep running

all the while

pure, clean water

as a 'fuel'

and making

not so much

as a single

bubble of air

nor separate

H from O

nor oiled to spill

save Emerald squeezed

from Photo Synthe

of Heat and Pressure

no expiration though

but Tears of Life

born in form

like unto carbon

steady formed

in web of lending

each on each

a joined whole...

Epiphany

I had a wife once

when I was younger

and knew her

at first sight...

it was quiet

comfortable in family whispers'

coffee, grandmas loved

and would not forget

I embraced

like a worm

into the apple rind

crying and scraping

don't leave me!

and they wrenched

us apart with tears

and awful wonder...

then grandma gave dad

a Morgan Silver Dollar

where in Trade

of 1800's

quested East

into the Rising Son

their Golden Child!

(and I remember that Night

their Santa Clause

who showed me not his Eyes

but hid behind them

jolly at my Fright

as he Laughed

my Mother’s cooing

leave the Child alone

he does not like this hiding

nor the clacking

of your crew

though comforted here

pleading

in our arms…

go thee away

while in the former

how leave him here

to his mother’s son

our daughter, his own?

handing over instead

the Silver Token.

O

Ainu

I am awake

but I thing, somehow

still sleeping...

grab my hand

and shake

the links

of seeming...

twist and turn

the knotted screw

in sight of reaming...

learn to burn

the rotten dews

in flight of reeling...

acorn nuts

tortoise shells

heavy lots

poppy bells

broken lime

red-grass leaves

sweet-grass weaves

keeping time

in the breeze ...

sweet clay traded

river dells

winds abated

forests tell

push the sunrise

garner well

flit the sky

all doubt repel

destined time

for you

grit and grime

polished true

yesterday, for a moment

man, then of age

the growing portent

of a Natural Sage...

loose the self

in a morning star

tweak and pelf

the hem of your beloved...

blink of an eye

sun gets high

verge the sky

to all bestowed...

sailors row

unflinching why

as honor raised

upon the pyre...

winds and rain

and tempests blasts

cannot bewail the sparrow

when all of pain

wrested from the grasp

of praise besets tomorrow!

still building my shipyards

feeling soooo sneaky

not like a thief

but cat

prowling the shadow...

chimpanzee sneeze

too brief

enjoy the spat

howling to the hollow

fish and chips

with a postcard

in ease

to the backyards...

table and urn

water and wine

all is learned

tressed to a T

no mere postcard

addressed to see

but the backyard

praise and glee

where the garden

in the rising

hopes to be

and the warden

fit for tying

prays to leave...

I got my lover

in the motion

dedication, devotion

turning night to day

the Walk

the Waltz in Stride

Front Feet

it's hard to lose

but Heartache

is best to prove

and here comes Johnny

singing-

he's got the action

the motion, devotion

turning night into day

singing of trouble

and strife...

then do the Waltz on bye.

 

Horizon bells

don't they want to see?

Like Moses

parting the Sea

is the Holy

taking Power over me...

don't they want to go

to the refuge

of the soul

sometimes to show

how to breathe

golden whole

and sacred reverie...

baking now

waiting for truth

the bells

total honesty

no difference

all is seen

all tells

amazing days

along

it's evolution...

so to prayer, a wish

shelter from the night

warmth for my feet

in the breakdown

of the fight

following me.

 

can you see the Moment

when I call

something to rely on

feeling inside

what went wrong

not proud

to be right

like an island

all alone

not too strong

no less of truth

but tears

down the cheek

to love me long

be there for you

as for me

when all alone

I know how it feels...

world on our shoulders

not to be proud

more right than we need be

or be strong

or bold to see

they can trust thee

when they know

the truth

is gonna hurt them

not just standing there

to say nice things

nor to push down

but you will

take them

Granted

and All Will

bowl them over

with Love

and Astral Babies

...

my Horses are neighing

and my barns are full...

the Owls are praying

and mice lull

all together

forever

the beat of

just hold on

sweet midnight folding

music inside you

be there too

dreams coming true

feels so good

crying

me and you

spread these wings

flying

show the feeling

spend the reeling

river enfolds

life is told

turns to music

all we ever lose ...

hide the Jesuit

making is spruced

let them know

what the night can do

and be happy

to let it brew...

they don't know

breakfasts served

let them know

what the night can do.

 

Anchors on the shoulder

ropes upon the chin

no one

no one

ever is to blame...

build the mansion

but don't live in it...

fastest runner

but don't win

if you want her

and she wants you

walk over the world

no one

no one

ever is to blame...

see the Southern

but can't reach it

last piece of Puzzle

stubborn Lines to fit

still feeling the pain

but ask the Clouds

and loss runs down the drain

as no one

no one

ever is to blame.

 

where you going, there

why do you want to?

she said-

there's the one

I love the most

and stars

are not far behind...

I didn't care

but run my hands

through her dark hair

and prayed god

let her help me

fly away

when tears

fall down like rain

and us sin

if it eases our pain

to go

and walk out on day

to let it be...

wake up

not more alone

say

be back someday

look up, sigh

delay

and sun tomorrow praise...

I tried to leave

cried so much

could not believe

she was the same

when I fell in love

so long ago

when she held my hand

and let me cry

tears falling

like rain

for it eased my pain

to let her go

and be free...

I let her cry

as her tears

fell down like rain...

I let her sing

for it eased her pain

to let me go

and be free...

calm to the caravan

matter for you

trimming the Horizon's line

treading the simple truth...

guess the circle

while I'm waiting

for my fuse to dry.

 

sometimes they beg

sometimes, much more

though I'm bigger

than my body

gives me credit for

skinning the seal

or trimming lamps

never a clock to turn...

some day

to fly

to soar

some day...

they'll faint

sometimes, much more

for I'm bigger

than my body

gives me credit for

bigger than my folly

though seeming more...

Ages tangle in the Power Lines

over in a circus style

down in the frame...

ok, if that's what it takes

to remember my Name

waiting for my fuse to dry...

someday I think

someday, much more

for I'm bigger than my body.

 

now Cruising speed...

have you felt the wind

blowing on the Main

and faced to win

heroic deed upon the spray?

there it goes

moving across the water...

there he goes

turning the world around...

it's the last part of the deal

lay the heart on the line

breath when we breath

listen to the breeze

color me

show me the signs

this time...

who else will bring

the golden arrow

diamonds and reign?

there he goes

moving across the water

there it blows

turning the whole world around...

feeling what I feel

seen what I see

cop the mystery

meet you

by the Witness Tree...

leave the World behind

crawl where you crawl

get to you

if I have to bawl

announcing the sublime

my cry-

who else is gonna bring you

diamonds and rain?

then blows

moving across the water

it is gold

turned my whole life around

an answer

through the long

and painful fight

too caught up

with pain

for many words

to offer

trying

but sunk so low

missing

though better

none should know ...

turn of soul

heart of old

but I'm young

can shift the Course

the past undone

but reveals

the lonely light of morning

the wounded hope

that groans to heal

falling

sunk so low

missing...

better none should know-

is torn the soul.

 

they meant to take my hand

when nowhere left to lure

lost my friends

turned, embarrassed

one slip, misstep

before you know it

it seems too daring

no way to be redeemed

though I've missed them

better they should own

to come near here

and kiss the soul...

you there

with the sad eyes

beware, and bear

the raging skies

and confound it...

true colors

are beautiful

like a rainbow

shows a smile

making happy then...

remember when

last time we laughed-

take what you can mend

then call me up ...

I'll be there

my true colors

shining through

not afraid

to let them show

true colors

beautiful

Water and Ice Bridge

like a rainbow...

when I last saw you laugh

the world went crazy

and I took the half

kissed mercy

our true colors

shining through

not afraid

to let them show

true colors

beautiful

like a rainbow.

 

there's no one plan

no one stands

but needs to be free.

 

All aboaaaaaard!

Our Ships have come In

I sent a message

over a week ago

and posted two of the 5 groups on Ainu

Luther's Anna Verse Airy...

hope you don't mind

but I showed him your Mural

of the Dragon Hero

now it's your turn

go find him

bring him back

or us to him

(Speaking of Joffre’s Friends in Brittany or Parisian Studios)

Master Masons

Geometric Princess's

Golden Child

Fairy Queen

Orbs of Light, All

Duke of Meissen

Knights of the Emerald Order

Elk Lodge Foundries

LO!

Madame Chevalier, duPonts

Cousins of the Orange

In full array

and Mary

Queen of Scots

Pouring from Open Goblets

Crystal Raised

Georgian and Elizabethan Sovereigns

Victory Praised

Hammer wrought

Generosity Sang

and all the Lands

by Sea Embraced!

here is the Generosity of U

that I ever wish

and dream upon

in fondest expectation

dreaming still

and dropping tears

in fame of fortunate friends

more wealthy than mere gold

but lathered in the Milk of Embracing

ever embraced

beautiful Script

fully alive

Banker's Hands

or Writer's Bands

in Trumpet of Word

and Vision of Heart

a Lover's Paradise

and Demon's Hell

more Sound to Tell

like ringing a Bronzed Bell

Liberty

not too Broken

still ringing True

and ever yet espied

for Venture and Contest

and Song of Heroic Worth

to move Us

every Time.

 

I wrote up once

Incorporation Papers

had posted at Goals of Awareness Editorials

which I got rid of a few months

after I posted it all

which took about six months to perform

just from the get go

...fun though

took it down

too grandiose for the Mob.

ha!

 

that's what I said

when I cracked Lead

into the Brain of gods-

ATU MIENSKE!

running through the Woods

to catch the falling Sun

that last Night in November

when I strung

my Pyramids

and said beforehand

to the Groups:

Such comes

but do not ask

to see

my dark Pyramid...

Shipboard Passage

for September 10

in London

after which

we go live

where we belong

and no more wander

in shoe closets

or bathroom stalls

or trickling streams

around the barn

in hope of all we are

and what believing means…

all we dream

falls on me

the beautiful sky

and light you bring

or songs we sing

wends upon the lees...

Spooky spends almost every waking minute

when my Sister is not around

just sitting or laying or licking, near me

statuesque and dignified

patient and yearning

comfortable and snoozing

friends for petting

rugs for rolling

hands for caressing

lips for whispering

ears for hearing

skin for breathing

blood for pumping

sighs for loving

tears for everything

and love, in-between...

Sail on, O Gleam of Faith

and Venture yet the Seas

in Quest of All, admired

of ancient Rocks

and lush rosary!

 

now the Sailor's Voice

and Wind Born Wishing...

took my Gorilla Sentry down today

felt it best

to move his Bronze

and splay out the Copper

at the Doorsill

of the Inner Court...

I keep my Head to the Wall

and Face

Opposite Inner Sanctum

where my Work Bench is

and my Hands

here I am

in Concordance

sow the brickyards

driest in gold Vale

gray Waist on Limbs

and red Cap

wresting from the Day

in Company of Air

and Light embracing

pleasant Moments

moving still

by dint of secret touches

bending the watery hills

in wish of Ministry

for where it lends

and how Sound

even in Thought

Resonate courses

Depth Perception

there...

I cleaned the One Chalice

poured out the Treasure

of Venus

took the Other

poured out the Hope

of Nations

now sort the latter

or, better yet

let them shipboard swabs

suck up the loot

and dare not loose

between the Onyx deckboards

a single trinket...

HERE is the Sign

in Hold of Some

which they call All

shall Appear

a Frozen One

among the Tepid

and on it's Icy Steel

build up the Mountains' Visage

winding the Wind to Heighten

and dressing the Field

with Laughter

Calm as Dawn

Drop Icy Dew upon the World...

and this is the Confession

of Experience

face to Face

Our Echo

that they may better Gleam

when I send them back

in Toast of Olympic Virtue

where yesterday they set

too proud of worth

than to suffer

Dust of Time

which now I clean

with Water and Fire

waving or flying on the mean

and every number leaned

to smug and dried out husks

of seedlings

and snake skin molting

blessing as the Hull

for strength and believing.

 

a Scottish, Music Friend

who just finished her second Album

is interested

in our Studio...

maybe wants to see closer

what we are doing

and how she may

lend her Musical Script

to our Venture....

what do you think?

(See celt voice link)

 

my honored Crystal Goblets

in sight of Venus

stand the furthest corner on the North

away from the Central Plaza

of the Inner Court

almost directly facing, but for the Walls

the Holly Wreath and Lumination Stone

my Family Hung

upon the Lintel

of the Inner Sanctum

where I most prefer to sleep

on my Couch.

 

HAHA

not full already?!

now that's a problem

all should have

"Oh, enough with the kisses

all ready

haha...have you lost your mind?"

 

Now all is set in Order

Copper Queen

and she sits pretty

ear-ringed blessings

of a Brutal Contest

she left aside

when Wisdom spoke

and did not allow

Beauty chide or chided be...

I have my playwright Works too

which I haven't shared

with BeingQuest

or U

my Stonegyre...

gonna investigate

and wonder

what Visions

we may Inspire

all of us

in

Sculpture

Paint

Word

Music

maybe even

Campus

some Day

when Quest Academy

is fit

seeking men

with aneurisko

Yahoo!

 

you're off to bed

with wafts of gentleness

on your cheek

and warm blankets

on your brow

moist massages

for the lips

and ear coils

watered and warm-oiled...

now may you see

the Rainbow Bridge

for what it is

and not some Figment

which most learn late

or not at all...

a Sea Born Defense

of Proud Heritage

and Dauntless Will

which love and grace

is friendship, your way

though understanding

falters

like Horse in bridle

how to best, always perform

that which you know.

(Jan. 24, 2004 1730)

 

I charge you with something

which may you perfect

and none avoid

of Accusation...

but

I charge you-

let no one

pretend the Hearth

against me

nor mock

the sacred Voyage

for I keep Naiads

and Neptune himself...

let them think

well before

they believe Fire may quench

the Deep of Water

or expire, by heat of Memory's insistence

what Rocks

and Waves

and Air

knows of Tribulation...

I see Mountain Side

and Vineyard Fields

I see Cliff Hanging Vine

and Templed Stone

I see Sunrise

and Moon Ice, older than old...

what do you see

Jack Flash sat on a candle stick?

 

as Fire is the only thing

Satan understands

singing

This will be the day

that I die

and sang the blues

for food

but we all said

the music won't play...

children screamed

lovers cried

poets dreamed...

then the Holy Ghost

caught the Air

for the Coast

the day

the darkness lied...

it is Present

by too many, unseen

a lift and resonance

of one, the wealthy gleaned

Lords and Ladies...

do U know what I Mean?

they stood there, silent sentinels

hardly noticed

I held back my tears

And said-

I found another Place

just left me

had nothing to say

dandies, yes indeed

but now they are free

ya know what I Mean?

been days

since I know when

but I spotted her

with my Friend

yesterday, learned

how to say-

do you know

what I Mean?

Lovely Child

then I scent

upon the baking wind

bread

and milk

molded like a bed

and tinkling wines

from cellars lofted

in praise of Venture

the living heart whispered

and set to drifting

more life, evermore composed

the perfect Form

golden Shields

of Wheat Grass ramblings

or Basket Trembling...

noble Tears

neither wait nor wonder

how I may expire

upon your grand worth

but think, beforehand

to check my tongue

and display

only thought

in fixed enterprise

of smashing waves

and Rocks of surety...

but future dreams

that' the key.

 

All is well

just drawing up

the Line

or is it Lion?

tamed

is the Black Empress

at my Feet

or in my arms

lovers breathe...

perhaps I'll awake

a muchroom Field for you

and you may dance

patient around the Force

and kiss your sisters

as you have kissed me

with loving true

no bit dismayed, here

still working

not in terms of

what I may need

but freely

living.

do I look like shutting down

I'm the whisper in the wind

sunshine in your hair

shadow on the ground

I'm already there...

 

best he had adverted to the counsel of friends and Virtues

I just now spelt

the best cup of Mead

I ever made!

my twisted

collidescope

to the Outdoors

stark heart voyager

beats in time with yours

it is where we are

enough

for this wide eyed wonderer

that we got this far

...

I was laid to rest

in kings and vagabonds

who believe

the very best

is laid to rest

I keep my tea in my cream, these days

take it just a little bit

past letting another win

as I just breathe

everything is alright

as we just breathe

times are overated

when I think

how you feel

watch chances fade

how changes rage

but

everything is alright

patiently

breathe

whispered in the dark

hoping you're here with me...

do you hear me?

if I just breath

everything in space

between

is alright

trying for an hour

something in-between

Artemis turns

these are the heights

nobody know better

than them that drink it

I always use a piece of the Previous

to make the new brew, batch

as my breads

just woke

had to peel me

from bed

like a rind

from the fruit...

an hour late

and counting...

but Kali does not care

for anxious needs

or vulgar demands

gulping down the cabbage

of human souls' patch...

some call it Kali Yoga

I call it Yogi Bare

whose advise to me

was-

When you see a fork in the road

take it.

here is Kundalini fire

for Dissolution

dissolve et solvere...

but it's cold here

and lonely

so I pour my waters

and steam up the place...

puff on a candle stick

Jack Flash

8 miles high

and still falling...

excuse me

am I late again?

yeah, but it's been

a mad season

the Fortress of Water

is Ice

and the Tower of Fire

is Wind

where they kiss

the Wave is made

and the Wake entertained...

I linger in answer to the Call

not too anxious to clutter up the halls

with standerbyes, or dolittles

let them drift or waft

as they may

for the time being

I say...

I am not anxious

for the well fare.

I promise them

never

will they hurt anymore

I give my Word

my Heart

a battle of Worth

forever

has now begun

look in my Eyes

the feeling

won't go away

till life is through

or I embrace U

where will I go

without U in my life...?

I just wouldn't be living

at all

so I take you in my arms

where you belong

till the day

my life is through

this, I promise U

every Word I said is true

this I promise U

I promise U

gonna have a cup of Mead

before I leave

this morn...

wonder how the Sky is

whether the Constellations fly

to tomorrow

or on your knee

pray.

build the lives

others told you

own the love

you never left

own the things

your mother told you

when the sun

lights your room

coming down

the world turned over

and angels fall

without you there...

always some one there.

no time left

for losers

stand or fall...

coming down

the world turned over

and angels fall

without you there...

the walls turned colder

without you there

count down the halls

and the leaves

turn over

then I'll become

as you became

to me.

where they gonna hide

when it all comes down?

just got it

mobile hearing test

resonance reckoning

scored lowest

and highest

now they pay

my leisure's day

for lovely generosity

I couldn't hold the Mead

but gut busted my spew

under the garbage bin

smell up the place

with Nutmeg and

Honeyed Cream

Dreaming On

Event

she is Invited and Walks Free

as Distant as the Hoary Head

peering, as if upon the Heel

of prayer and reverent homage

none dismayed

but Set as maestros of the Woods

where whence I thundered

and rent down

the Veil

Sacred Hearth

Hera's Fire

Isis' Balm

there

among the Cloven Oak

no dry-rot wasting

or pups cry out

Anubis sniffs

but does not howl

then let flies

the Ruby Whips

while Dayspring Virtue

carries on the Quest

and heals the eclipsed sons

golden Rays, Sylvan lays

holy days, ya know

I just brew another batch

when that happens

but it's filling the Circle

and washing out of Titan Stalls

full round the gamut

and belching

from the very Roots

Gorgon raging fore

but soothed then

to Milk of Honey

poured with trembling hands

on Fires of Salt

lending some new Breath

it's space allowed

and brewed anew

to gentler ways

though to walk on fire

that's the thing

that's the Rock

for Calling

children musing

Prehistoric Trophies

and cave-bent CereTops 

Inner Court ramblings

Kiss

I just got a Plug

on KSLD

Willmar, MN...Radio

for BeingQuest

WHAHOOOH

find a warm, hot globe

or make one from Bathroom Stalls

then let your Crown Ablaze

down the Middle

til lighting on your plunging tongue

drink up the Light for 3 minutes

will you mend some broken threads for me

on Mother's Fleur

new snatched

upon the heaping Pyre?

I'll send them

 

AVALON

 

 

TALASA-

i prefer putting efforts to your book first...i have lists of places that need work like that if i had the time

one of the sights hooked us to a basket full of needs in the arts...also where places want art in new buildings...

in my mind...I would like to take the ideas such as the golden child and dragon and find a new building which could house this or others like it...and your book could be wonderful with illustrations....

if I get too scattered....well

...focus and passion for the project ...the page you showed me today...he loves his subject and it shows....i have seen my work that is mechanical....and i have seen the ones with that "other"

rather would i paint /sculpt for the other than for wealth

the pics. i sent you came from direct experience...not from requests...although that is my job

kiss

think this when planning story line...the shape panels size conforms to the idea not the reverse was remember in something I saw at the airport..a very large mural extending across the wall separate panels one leading into the other....and as another thought ...they can be any shape there are ways to make an arch or even/also if on several large canvases that fit together like puzzle too unlimited manners of presentation...I could go on but I think you know what I am suggesting....there are no limits except our imaginationas i was painting today I thought...not that i need to be clear in everything i write but that one should (as you have said in the past) be careful of choosing words but this time it is nit the words but how the words are interpreted....

know that i was saying that it was appropriate that i fall and find...and that you witness without interpreting or changing ...letting me stumble over words and ideas...

btw...think about the flow of how we were speaking...we were already continuing the sentences....but the minute i was asked to think....a literal click happens...and the flow goes into learned response rather than intuitive response....

what made me think of it today was when i was painting....i lifted 4 or 5 colors squirted them mix and splash...2 brushes and waved gestures all over the wall...so happy...they found something to burst out of the wall ...a dark holy man eyes downward…as if in prayer or respect.....i step back and see for the first time ...after an hour of flow...and think...where did he come from?...who has the remote?

painting is a prayer....the deepest kind of prayer except perhaps poetry ....and also when i talk with you...but ask me to tell you all the words and how to spell them i enter the click happens

well the painting is going so well ...and it is so wonderful to see them enjoy it...they introduced me to a policeman from the county ...thinking of doing some sort of memorial for local police that died...asked for a card...it would be for the county court house...might be a sculpture too...i will probably come up with an idea for a presentation...either mural or sculpture...i'll wait till they contact me

in the night...awake
without the expectation of desire
his voice is mine and mine his
a means for silence
stillness...emptiness...surrender
all those things that was thought to prepare
...yet gravity prevails
and sends this solid subtle form
toward distant stars
of even graver solid form...
matter holds me here....a fact
i know this well
as well as life is certain
as well as dreams and visions
as well as all illusion
one only needs to turn...that's all
simple gesture sought by master mage and man
that fiercely gentle gesture that permits
the longing's greatest blessing...nothing

ahhh

first cup of coffee in the silence of morning
reflecting on our exchange....beautiful...
yes you are the dearest treasure
in dream i see
i can reflect a bit more
can't remember when I was that exhausted in a very long time
pushing self past boundaries on all sides

guess that is how to examine what limits to cross next
feeling very left brain today
perhaps because i have some of the every days to maintain before the day is through
and i am going to go paint for a few hours/want to finish this last supper painting by midweek
tomorrow I am going to crash...maybe stay in bed....maybe watch movies
maybe write ...paint....
or talk with you

i heard you singing in the night.....or maybe you were just humming along with old songs on the radio...:)

kiss

Before the sun rises to cast me back to the ways of daily habits’ before I loose the shards that melt like ice

The night reveals reflections on event s that cast me toward the moon by way of the sun

That crystal bubble from the foam of waves relentless in the stirring lifted both our words and heart and over every syllable poured both we and wiser still the spirit (for lack of a better name)there were the hands that pushed the letters on a simple board and spiraled to the air the gift of being song both harmony and single note defined in life’s expression of the all

But then the fall

Some words called me to think/to finish sentence on the brink of what was there beyond the veil

The fall I called

Help me

Did you see me fall to confusion

To hold clarity for a moment without effort

To fly the main without the self

The fall

Extream the contrast

Seeing placement of mind and the linear hold us in matter and

Me …the self

Wanting to hold an old comfort of understanding

Help me I cried

Knowing if you are truly kind

Truly friend

You let me fall

Within your watchful eye

Remind us all the grace to save our self

I fell to sleep to escape

But as always I knew the fall continues

Till I no longer hold the last vestiges of fear

At arms length

This was no north or south or east or west

But above and below

Seeing reflections of fearlessness for both the animal and the divine

If I were to tell you it would mean nothing

But clear

So clear

Upon waking I know the answer to my own question

"how do I love?"

I just do………..

I am going to send this before I wake too much…I have a sense of not sending if I reread the contrast last night was profound in sight

Perhaps you see otherwise but it will yet brew today

Tears that escape this morn have no name

They are not sadness or joy

Just bits of foam and shards from the crystal bubble.

QUEST FOR BEING

the long awaited sequel to "Odyssey of Heart" under Poetic Works

by

Durandus von Meissen

11-17-03

 

 

 

 

 

It's better to linger upon humility

and all that force of life

than preach of worlds to come

or down the world with curses

which some cruel wench may wish

or other wizen mind may invent

tending their own vengeance

and, pending all upon their thought

which, just a thought

must expire, expiring themselves.

Rather, deeper aspiration speaks

more silent than the claims of most

yet more insistent

and more sure upon the heart

wandering yet, though not dismayed

is more interested than learning's quest-

a sense of life

which mothers know

and fathers wish

in hope of family.

 

Such fruit of hoping yet may prove

a great tomorrow

not of scholars, but born to unify

this sibling of heaven itself

though born of earth

still groans, forever true

though dropping ageless tears

a golden child

too much of sorrow

yet forborne in ways of loss

to catch, for all, the one in each and all.

 

God/s help us…

such pain let loose

the hope of a thousand generations!

Such is made the temple of Life

as living soul bows down to loss

yet not for loss

but joy in that the Heart is born...

an ancient, knowing sadness

more true to all than anyone can speak

still lingering upon a verge of vengeance

but tiding time and weeping, prays-

come, darlings...kiss my bloodied brow

and wipe clean the dregs of reeling;

drink up the Memory and strike down

all sense of shame...

alone allow what belongs between

the shared loss and agony

of Experience among all and pour down

the sacred rain of ageless tears!

Spontaneous and Free is-

a proving which must bend

 

b oth day and night upon the verge

 

c onfounding what was careless wrought

 

d rawn from the tyrant powers, too boasting made

 

e ndearing yet to sorrow, whose way no way upgirds

 

f omenting all, but struck upon the world its fate

 

g roaning still for the nether part

 

h eighing kindly to meet our own

 

i f but to drain the dregs of reeling

 

j ustly disposed to gulp down both sun and moon

 

k indred of gods in consummation, inward born

 

l ately shown for every outward estimation

 

m ore clearly known

 

n odding upon the whispered visitors'

 

o rienting magnets of life and quintessential worth

 

p erfected among the tearful and

 

q uick enervated by the salty dew, ever

 

r emembering what cannot be forgot while

 

s imply pleasing that which ever stands

 

t oo conscious among the templed

 

u niverse of thought

 

v ery life

 

w hose root upon the mountains

 

'x emplifies

why we must speak as such and

 

z ero in on what concerns us most.

So, life is too rich

than to settle upon honey

and ever dream peaches and cream

but sometimes convulses

in shock of conflict

worthily spent

for wreck of teetering idols

or, flaming upon perverse towers

with bridled rage of pure despite

lays waste the blatant folly

and drives home the wretched crews

to lick up the dust their idiocy

in dismay at Force inspires

which, sudden bearing

and more subtly spent

is gone again in willows' whispering…

wind-born kin of faultless knowing

who are no bit denied of sight

nor yet restrained

by temptations of the feathered beds

and elbow cushions of worthless privilege

of self-explained sophistication

empty men so cherish.

Still, hushed melodies soft intone the spheres

and wend the avenues of thought

unespied by phantoms the world admires

but subtly encompassing the times

imbues the scales of being

and tinctures in disguise

like a thief in the night

such dross the vulgar revel by

and, faithfully plucking on the chords

sends shivers on the veins

and secret thunder on the roots

waking sleepers' dream;

more gentle than Selene

betrothing honesty to sight

and brightness for the dark of night

her darling young

for true embrace

in quest of generation

and the goal that Aeons willed

for prospect

mining the soundless leagues

in brood of vision

a timeless Hope

and Calcined spirit-

Golden Child!

Eureka!!!

It is Prophesy

in simile of Event

which Mythos wrought

by Cipher

but which yet

are Knots too tied

and sealed in Book of Holy

whose worthy Root

Life still incubates

and as from ash

then hatching

roars up in awful splendor

Gold and Ruby hewed

the flashing dignities

to mount the scales of being

from pole to pole

leap upon the Air

letting rain down

the sacred tears

which falling on the Earth

makes bloom the sacred Flower

that pure intent maybe be known

and from whose leaves

restore the Nations.

Some greater Hosts claim

and stake out their posts

in capture of the fleeing hordes

who, loosed from chained folly

and croaking 'gainst the Sun

belch forth from the Abyss

their humid ranks...

and these, let fly upon the Field

like Moses once let fly on Egypt

to stench what is reserved

for the pristine Fold?

Rather, the Net is strung

which wove of Fate

keeps taught the Limits

while pours down

the Huntress' arrows

or lets fly her sibling's darts

in flight of war for some

by gutted shells of Neptune's flees

or pipes of Pan

the Shepherd's melodies

tuning the Spheres

whose Gates and double doors

swings wide for garnering

and unlocked, scrolls up the Veil

in awe of wonder

rendering open view

of sacred Towers

glistening Ephod

and garb of the New City

uncloven Stone

whose rest upon our Footstool

then renewed

is the Goal, no less the Work!

Some spoke lately

upon a central, Human core

which rightly known is

a Cup of knowing

for cutting time

and Scythe, in view of Hera's eye

waved high upon Horizon

that sets the Orient in contest

no bit dismayed

by tempting lusts

of tempting minds

more set on Honor

and Angle of Nemesis.

Such eyes as see

weep more drops of tear

than Oceanus tells of rushing Water

or the Air lets fall

in wealth of blasting strength

but, seeing still

lights up a Fire

and gives warmth

upon the darling young

which Earth must nourish

well accepted by her kin

and favoring their Process

bares out the Plain

in plow of Force

whose greedy wish

makes torrent in the way

circumspection

whistling and knowing torn.

Some think it fine to speak of

Hermetic art

or call Hermes Lord

but leave vacant the elders

and disparage those

whose patience does not care

for Caverned men

nor would descend

to light on Plato's cave

nor much extend

to help the shadowed world

whose way

is all of folly

but which ancient ken

have gave of Fire;

still they know

what has been left

and what is kept

of sacred worth

too much withdrawn

till now

when Pluto's shrine

too full of frogs

and rusted Institutions

must belch the treasure

and let loose

on ancient groves

what some were satisfied

to leave rest in Forgetfulness.

Siblings all, such elders

though not untended, Time

but worked together

and binding Nets

in every Post, earlier laid down

pulled taught, by Right

what Circumspection knew

when first the drunken fool

made Chaos on the world

and mad lust

upon the sacred pools

offended Wisdom

and so sowed

the wasting ways of men.

No escape now

not for the Nordic fish

whose lust of power laid down

the Summer of the gods

in full deceit of cunning

nor for the barking force

whose face

has front upon the Sun and Moon

and has made

a desperation for the ancient towers.

They were mere Vessel once

the secret heroes

worked by the simple

and held near under the Air

but now are broken

and no more contained

in Earthen inspiration

thrown amidst the void

yet held near

in Care of true foreknowing

directing still by purest will

what cornered wish may perform

or, bending upon the Spheres

yet prove

though for the worthy fury

their compassed memory must say

turn back again

whispering upon the lesser

its tail

casting down

where such tail must fail

and, in face of revelation

face what it has haunted

in ages of the worthy

no more immature

not like times past

when it was easy

to lay waste

like weeping widows

their orphaned kind

but grown in stature of tears

and waxed strong with sorrow

match every bit of pain

that wickedness may invent

or inspire

among the fellows

whom Earth has born

but not matured

cast off

like figs from unripe trees

shook by torrent winds

in pride of self...

though others known

in quickening

raised fast upon their birth

to light

braving the Sun

in torment of the fire

still wishing upon grace

and proven to endure

woke the Aeons

and embraced

Nature’s sacred Dream!

‘Mental parameter’

accusers said

was test of truth

and forbade Honor

admitting Lies to Counsel.

As Life was not so clever

or did not care for such

to offer false advise

among fools, none knew

what proof of knowing

performs for the living

but all were left to guessing

as Time wend forth Mystery

and Nature let loose

Example of Fame, unannounced.

Something worthy of speech

or better intending, dove deeper

and rooted out a principle of seeming

thrown upon the innocent mind

abused among the same for interpretation

and reformed at last to Identity.

It may be Tincture sought

when insistence of thought contends;

it may be Folly, wrought

on nothing which the heart may lend;

it may be Wisdom spoke

when all is cast upon the Void

or what pending Furies wrote

in semblance of the gods, annoyed!

 

What ever it is, the mind may guess

and turning to admire

find nothing wherewith yet to bless

or finding self, expire.

 

Play then such games with Fate

O man, and boast upon the Lore

of Knowing, yet insatiate

for seekers or the carping bore!

Unsatisfied, the yawning Dark

gulps down in dreams the wayling

or seeking our Demeter's Lark

hoots and howls, the Ages raging;

though nothing of the Line, foredrawn

keeps wanderers from peeping

or bobbing on the form of Dawn

save empty vessels, leaking;

but, born upon an empty Nest

the Phoenix rises to contend

and from the loss of every best

distills what light of life intends.

 

Not wandering upon the Way

in sight of ancient bliss

it nurses still upon the Lay

of sacred Hearth and Eleus.

It is no bother

which knowing heart

has occupied of truth

and proven faith

whether matched

in care of worth

our simple thought

or soothing wishes

rose still and descends

in comfort of the seeing

or otherwise contends

for what in seeming has shown

of Family and Friends, believing.

Imp, imp

what's your name

coddling the fledglings...

what now

of worth or fame

can be told of wandering?

Naked as the day, you bore

both folly and fecundating

holding up what secrets store-

caverned men and wondering.

One 'she' I know

Banshee screaming-

The Night in quest of Death

whose ancient darts

flies through the Aeons

and comes raging

as Fate upon the shaft

some Furies

better bent to Force

than Patriarchs can tell of Truth

or whose sibling

kept Pythia in thrall of Augury

and let loose Leviathan himself

torqued down upon the thought

and wrenched upon the Heart

such smashing as none forebears

but Justice in accommodation.

Leviathan itself, on string of cunning

torques down the line of thought

and is wrenched

by Force of Heart

not too anxious upon proofs

but Science dismayed

in point of wonder

but lifted up in view of the palling age

by force of seeming

wracks the present world

and pretended knowing

with mental loss and waking Fact.

Mandala of shape

Geometry of thought

or braying asses

in pretense of men

wends a way

and slinks upon

like charmed serpents

or viper's snap

and lion's maw

the caverned corridors

or dens of fate

some point to

which truth may tell

or by the better sense

renovate of meaning

the contest

and forget such proof

as some need

but inward find their end

and lion’s den of faith.

Play, play

always play

or in the game of seeming

pray, pray

ever pray

for goal of truth and learning.

Holy, holy, holy

the angels fly upon the wing

wholly, wholly, wholly

their circumvention sings.

 

Dido wrought

and Ion snatched

the Sea, History raging-

what is Thought?

light your Match

and fierce the gods come flaming!

Rhymes are like the corned stakes

set in Compass of the field

but rhymes do not a poem make

nor cornered stakes a harvest yield.

Was it not said

Some Fiend of fire

would lead forth the Stars?

But he knows

that Saturn's grand pretense

in waking might of children

would lead forth the Fold of Stars

every bit of Moment spent

from then to thence

in contest of Event

which Patriarchy wished

Tyranny, but was lost

in quest of conquest, who

once killed in murder

their own lovely daughters

thinking that

in guise of strength

their wooden horse of Ages

or warring King

might tempt from the Powers

some favor...

they were wrong

whose latter’s patience

now must be spent

in rage of smashing

or more complied among the host

of daughters

whose history once bore such wrong

reply in grace to Fury

such Wisdom as invokes

the Seers' Arrow-

Twin-born kin

and renew what Prophesy and Augury once said

in Delphic hymn

of Gadfly learning-

Know Thyself

or be dead.

For such who cannot live

by what life knows of pain

an still profess their gain…

even if they said Isis

in craft of healing

they could not unlock

the treasured walls

that Nature embraces

more surely, more securely

than a fool falls backwards

upon their knees.

What Gate is sought by them

in quest of Beauty

Wisdom somewhat spoke

and held secure of the Past;

and so, they’ve called the Poet down

and prey upon the word…

some note the care

and let resound

a sacred hope upon the world;

others, in their disguise

speak of want and worry

and kiss the dark of vacant skies

their history and lies and decadence

or pills to mind their worry relating

invent new comforts or scripted Story

for Humanity, wretched crew.

Tripped upon the seeming light

they stumble in the known

and foster what’s, seeming, right

of wrong and the doctors’ treasured tombs-

a little paradise of privilege

among the wayling host

who serve, insured by others, sacrilege

of wealth in learning for the lost.

Three sisters stand

a token of sight-

mirrors in skirt of thought

that whispers on the wind

both peace and frothing

hunted and the hunting

wanderers yet

under the azure sky

embraced of night

but whose course

screams not for loss

but lauds the Hunt

in quest of the most Worthy...

more shouts of joy

than raging wiccans know

in cup of Hera

who have clutched

the reaping Scythe

and razed down

our stocks of folly...

blessed dance

of waywardness in mind

that rends the flesh

of pretended Titans

and drinks down

worthy Vengeance

seeping more

like mist upon the sky

our hope, blood-red memory

whose goat-shield of wrong

and wrath of Gorgons

can yet match the swaggering pride

that Patriarchy imposes

and ever proves

such as the drunk of self may do

and forgot

what gods may post

of Accusation

more quick in net of knowing

for the worthless

than Privilege holds for Justice

men and manlike gods pretending

in the world in name of God.

More may be said

or times pulled down

of understanding

but is left a place of peace

which circumvented stage of thought

for better wishing willed and

poets made

in Tragedy and Comedy

though relieved

in pipes of Pan

making mock

of our great Sun's intention-

twin born of Earth and Sky

whose care yet some say

is part of Ceres

or waxed wrathful

in Crone

not too much wrought

of Athene's knowing

though, struck like thunder

Titan hosts

upon the field of men

when Contest wrought

the ken of Greece

'giants Cyprian kin

or let fly, in Homer's recollection

the gods of war

for retribution of essential wrong!

Such poet spoke well

but could not know

what, and whom

shall any make of this make

more than is spoke

or inspired by such Memory

as we bear now

and such who holds

like darling kin

upon the furnaced time

the fiery baptism

enduring yet the ankle

and joint of association

for perfect proof

of Immortality!

Pray

invent them stop

the failing faith of self

that loss of hope has bought

in shadow of pretended wealth.

 

Weep and wanes the mind

and otherwise forlorn

in proof of fact, or worthless kind

bears fate and folly, happy norms

of brazen rationality, shorn

of Talent on the sacred Lyre

but happy in the attire

of objectivity and reason

whose space of thought conspires

with politics, scholars, legal wits

in empty grace of Humanity

to glory in what they begun

and dance to their own constancy

of rhetoric, contest, treasures won

of Influence and Domination…

Void on void

the age of rhetoric conspires

to fault all else

save its own Interest

contrived with pretended worth

while all others fail

the hope of Humanity

and cannot know

what Independence inspires

from Truth and Heart

but them alone-

learned glory of our Defense!

The fates of folly are not silent born

nor absent on the Music lyre

but sure as certain fault

and such as recklessness of pride has spoke

lengthens the attire

of empty wishing, boldly wrote

the pride of men

in wending out of vacant space-

one’s own great folly, flung

in face of cheapest grace

and once begun, dances to false surety

in proof of shadow forms, empty thoughts

conspired on every wish, employed and retired

to wrack loss and pretence, worthy thoughts

for abysmal ways, destruction and worthlessness enjoyed!"

betrothing honesty to sight

and brightness for the dark of night

her darling young

for true embrace

in quest of generation

and the goal that Aeons willed

for prospect

mining the soundless leagues

in brood of vision

a timeless Hope

and Calcined spirit-

Golden Child!

Eureka!!!

It is Prophesy

in simile of Event

which Mythos wrought

by Cipher

but which yet

are Knots too tied

and sealed in Book of Holy

whose worthy Source

Life still incubates

and as from ash

then hatching

roars up in awful splendor

Gold and Ruby hewed

the flashing dignities

to mount the scales of living Hosts

from pole to pole

leap upon the Air

letting rain down

the sacred tears

which, falling on the Earth

makes bloom the sacred Flower

that pure intent may be known

and from whose leaves

restores the Nations.

Some greater Hosts claim

and stake out their posts

in capture of the fleeing hordes

who, loosed from chained folly

and croaking 'gainst the Sun

belch forth from the Abyss

their humid ranks...

and these, let fly upon the Field

like Moses once let fly on Egypt

to stench what is reserved

for the pristine Fold?

I think not!

Rather, the Net is strung

which wove of Fate

keeps taught the Limits

while lets fly

the Huntress' arrows

or her sibling's darts

in proof of war for some

by gutted shells of Neptune's flees

or pipes of Pan

the Shepherd's melodies

tuning the spheres

whose Gates and double doors

swings wide for garnering

and unlocked, scrolls up the Veil

in awe of wonder

rendering open view

of sacred Towers

glistening Ephod

and garb of the New City

uncloven Stone

whose rest upon our Footstool

then renewed

is the Goal, no less the Work!

Some spoke lately

upon a central, Human core

which rightly known is

a Cup of knowing

for cutting time

and Scythe, in view of Hera's eye

waved high upon Horizon

that sets the Orient in contest

no bit dismayed

by tempting lusts

of tempting minds

more set on Honor

and Angling Nemesis.

Such eyes as see

weep more drops of tear

than Oceanus tells of rushing Water

or the Air lets wend

in wealth of blasting strength

but, seeing still

lights up a Fire

and gives warmth

upon the darling bud

which Earth must nourish

well accepted by her kin

and favoring their Process

bares out the Plain

in plow of Force

whose greedy wish

makes torrent in the way

circumspection

whistling and knowing born.

Some think it fine to speak of

Hermetic art

or call Hermes Lord

but leave vacant the elders

and disparage those

whose patience does not care

for Caverned men

nor would descend

to light on Plato's cave

nor much extend

to help the shadowed world

whose way

is all of folly

but which ancient ken

have gave of Fire;

still they know

what has been left

and what is kept

of sacred worth

too much withdrawn

till now

when Pluto's shrine

too full of frogs

and rusted Institutions

must belch the treasure

and let loose

on ancient groves

what some were satisfied

to leave rest in Forgetfulness.

Siblings all, such elders

though not untended, Time

nor Fate, but worked together

and binding Nets

in every post, earlier laid down

pulled taught, by Right

what Circumspection knew

when first the drunken fool

made Chaos on the world

and mad lust

upon the sacred pools

offended Wisdom

and so sowed

the wasting ways of men

and grief-filled History.

No escape now

not for the Nordic fish

whose greed of clever fame laid down

the Summer of the gods

in full deceit of cunning

nor for the barking clans

whose face

has front upon the Sun and Moon

and has made

a desperation for the ancient boundaries.

They were mere Vessel once

the secret heroes

worked by the simple

and held near under the Air

but now are opened up

and no more contained

in Earthen inspiration

thrown amidst the Shadow

yet held near

in Care of true foreknowing

directing still by purest will

what cornered wish may perform

or, turning on the spheres

yet prove

though for the worthwhile fury

their compassed memory must say-

turn back again…

whispering upon the lesser

its tail

casting down

where such must fail

and, in face of revelation

face what it has haunted

in ages of the noble

no more immature

not like times past

when it was easy

to lay waste

like weeping widows

their orphaned kind

but grown in stature of tears

and waxed strong with sorrow

match every bit of pain

that wickedness may invent

or inspire

among the mortal fellows

whom Earth has born

but not informed of Truth

cast off

like figs from unripe trees

shook by torrent winds

in pride of self...

though others known

in quickening

raised fast upon their birth

to light

braving the Sun

in torment of the fire

still wishing upon grace

and proven to endure

woke the Aeons

and embraced

Nature’s sacred Dream!

‘Mental parameter’

accusers said

was test of Person

and forbade Life

admitting Lies to Counsel.

As Life was not so clever

nor cared for such dissembling

to offer false advise

among fools, none knew

what proof of knowing

performs for the living

but all were left to guessing

as Time wends forth Mystery

and Nature lets loose

Example of Fame, unannounced.

Something worthy of speech

or better intending, dove deeper

and rooted out a principle of seeming

thrown upon the mind and

abused among the fools for interpretation

at last reformed to Identity

what all the innocent maintains.

It may be Tincture sought

when insistence of thought contends;

it may be Folly, wrought

on nothing which the heart may lend;

it may be Wisdom spoke

when all is cast upon the void

or what pending Furies wrote

in semblance of the gods, annoyed!

 

What ever it is, the mind may guess

and turning to admire

find nothing wherewith more to bless

and finding self, expire.

 

Play then such games with Fate

O Man, and boast upon the Lore

of Knowing, yet insatiate

for seekers and the carping bore!

Unsatisfied, the yawning Dark

gulps down in dreams the wayling

or seeking our Demeter's Lark

hoots and howls, the Ages raging;

though nothing of the Line, foredrawn

keeps wanderers from peeping

or bobbing on the form of Dawn

save empty vessels, leaking;

but, born upon an empty Nest

the Phoenix rises to contend

and from the loss of every best

distills what light of Life intends.

 

Not wandering upon the Way

but in full sight of ancient bliss

it nurses still upon the Lay

of sacred Hearth and Eleus.

It is no bother

which knowing heart

has occupied of truth

and proven faith

whether matched

in care of worth

our simple thought

or soothing wishes

rose still and descends

in comfort of the seeing

or otherwise contends

for what in seeming has shown

of Family and Friends, believing.

Imp, imp

how’s the game

coddling the fledglings...

what now

of worth or fame

can be told of wandering?

Naked as the day, you bore

both folly and fecundating

holding up what secrets store-

caverned men and wondering.

One worth I know

Banshee screaming-

The Night in quest of Death

whose ancient darts

flies through the Aeons

and comes raging

as Fate upon the shaft

some Furies

better bent to Force

than Patriarchs can tell of Truth

or whose sibling

kept Pythia in thrall of Augury

and let loose Leviathan himself

torqued down upon the thought

and wrenched upon the Heart

such smashing as none forebears

but Justice in accommodation.

on string of cunning

Life wrenches down the line of thought

and is set

by Force of Heart

not too anxious upon proofs

but Science dismayed

in point of wonder

is lifted up in view of the palling age

by seeming or believing to

wrack the present world

and pretended knowing

with mental loss and waking Fact.

Mandala of shape

Geometry of thought

or braying asses

in pretense of men

wends a way

and slinks upon

like charmed serpents

or viper's snap

and lion's maw

the caverned corridors

and dens of men

some sophists secure

which truth may sooner knell

or by the better sense

renovate meaning

and perfectly contest

what most forgot

as some have need

but inward find their end

in trial of faith, every fear revealed.

Play, play

always play

or in the game of seeming

pray, pray

ever pray

for goal of Truth and learning.

Holy, holy, holy

the Angels fly upon the wing

wholly, wholly, wholly

their circumvention sings.

 

Dido wrought

and Ion snatched

the Sea, History raging-

what is Thought?

light your Match

and fierce the gods come flaming!

Rhymes are like the corned stakes

set in Compass of the field

but rhymes do not a poem make

nor cornered stakes a harvest yield.

Was it not said

Some Fiend of fire

would lead forth the Stars?

But he knows

that Saturn's grand pretense

in waking might of children

would lead forth the Fold

every bit of Moment spent

from then to thence

in contest of Event

which Patriarchy wished for

Tyranny, but was lost

in hope of conquest, who

once killed in murder

their own lovely daughters

thinking that

in guise of strength

their wooden horse of Ages

or warring King

might tempt from the Powers

some favor...

they were wrong

whose latter’s patience

now must be spent

in rage of smashing

or more complied among the Hosts

reply in grace to Fury

such as Wisdom invokes

the Seers' Arrow-

Twin-born kin

and renew what Prophesy and Augury once said

in Delphic hymn

of Gadfly learning-

Know Thyself

or be dead.

This, for such who cannot live

by what Life knows of pain

but still profess some faulted gain…

even if they said Isis

in craft of healing

they could not unlock

the treasured halls

that Nature embraces

more surely, more securely

than the fool falls backwards

upon their knees.

What Gate is sought by them

in quest of Health and Beauty

Wisdom somewhat spoke

and held enduring of the Past;

and so, they called the Poet down

and prey upon the word…

some note the care

and let resound

a sacred hope upon the world;

others, in their disguise

speak of want and worry

and kiss the dark of vacant skies

their history and lies and decadence

spills from mind, any thought relating

to invent new forms of folly

or banal comforts of scripted nobility

of worth for Humanity

believing they ordain

new generations of their wretched crew!

Tripped upon the bending light

they stumble in the known

and foster what their liberal invention

deemed right of wrong

by pretended doctors’ treasured tombs-

a little paradise of privilege

among the wayling host

who serve, insured by others, sacrilege

of wealth in gilded learning for the lost.

Three sisters stand

a token of awful sight-

mirrors in skirt of thought

that whispers on the wind

both peace for them once wronged

and frothing

hunted and the hunting

wanderers yet

under the trembling sky

embraced of night

but whose course

screams not for loss

but lauds the Hunt

in quest of the most Worthy...

more shouts of joy

than raging wiccans know

in cup of Hera

who have clutched

the reaping Scythe

and razed down

our stalks of folly...

blessed dance

of waywardness in mind

that rends the flesh

of pretended Titans

and drinks down

worthy Vengeance

seeping more

like mist upon the stones

our hope, blood-red memory

whose goat-shield of humble service past

made wrath of Gorgons

now to match the swaggering pride

that Patriarchy imposes

and ever proves

such as the drunk of self may do

and yet forgot

what gods may post

of Accusation;

more quick in net of knowing

for the brutal customs

than Privilege holds for Justice

men and manlike gods pretending

in the world a name for Truth

to Rule the sacred Heart.

More may be said

or times pulled down

of understanding

but is left a place of peace

which circumscribing stage of thought

for better wishing willed and

poets made

in Tragedy and Comedy

though relieved

in pipes of Pan

making mock

of our great Sun's intention-

twin born of Earth and Sky

whose care yet some say

is part of Ceres

or waxed wrathful

in Krone

not too much wrought

of Athene's knowing

though, struck like thunder

tyrant hosts

upon the field of men

when Contest wrought

the ken of Greece

'gaints Cyprian kin

let fly, in Homer's recollection

the gods of Contest

for retribution of essential wrong!

Such poet spoke well

but could not know

what, and whom

shall any make of this

more than mere token of Ages

or inspired by such Emblems

as we bear now

and hold

like darling kin

upon the furnaced time

the fiery baptism

enduring yet the ankle

and joint of association

for perfect proof

of Dignity!

Pray

invent them stop

the failing faith of self

that loss of hope has bought

in shadow of these times’

pretended wealth.

 

Weep and wanes the mind

and otherwise forlorn

in proof of fact such worthless kind

that bears fate and folly, fixed norms

of brazen rationality, shorn

of Talent on the sacred Lyre

but happy in the attire

of objectivity and reason

whose space of thought conspires

with politics, scholars, legal wits

in empty grace of Humanity

to glory in what they begun

and dance to their own constancy

of rhetoric, idiocy, brutality to trembling won

their Influence and Domination.

Void on void

the way of pretended Logic conspires

to fault all else

save its own Interest

contrived with imaged worth

while all others fall

to tears in hope of Humanity

and cannot own for this

what Independence inspires

from Truth and Heart

but them alone-

learned glory of our Defense

that wreck all else

who do not like conspire-

wretched crew

and object of contempt

to every friend and lover, graceless strays!

The fates of folly are not silent born

nor absent to the Muses’ lyre

but sure as certain fault

and such as recklessness of pride has spoke

lengthens the attire

of wishing, as boldly wrote

the pride of men

in wending out of their own vacant space-

one’s own great emptiness, flung

in face of cheapest aspiration

and once begun, danced to false surety

in proof of shadow forms, empty thoughts

conspired on every wish, employed and inspired

to wrack loss and pretence on life (worthy thoughts

for abysmal ways), destruction and worthlessness enjoyed!

I'm sure I kissed the Phoenix

as my lips admit fire

too burning in seeming truth

and stunned of thought…

not too much dismayed by wonder yet

in lick of salt for learning

but for spite of memory in contempt for some

set fierce upon the Moment

my good intention and attention...

let it come.

"I’m full now, my Care

I can eat no more"-

she said

then Being led

upon the shore

where God and Goddess All adore

wandering hand in hand

with each, beloved.

A fool’s dance among our selves

if we don't conceive IT-

our life, or sinister plan

killing our hope

if we mistreat IT

or in loss of true wealth

fail to believe IT-

our life, holy hands

whirling, endless health

and love cherished.

 

Get what we want

or get what we need

or folly flaunt

upon the Widow’s mite and Seed

if any dare!

The Work is earned

and bends backward to terms of wrong

for rectification, such as sages learn

in auditing the Angels' Song

which Majesty of Heart lays bare.

Wait upon the gentle Breeze

Silver Pinions lead

as if embraced of ease

and, purer than faith to mend

Our loss, extend

Truth’s healing upon Disease.

BOOM!

the Ages go

in thunder of the Winds

that Chance must make

and bestow

to all of each, in-between

today and tomorrow.

BOOM!

the contest rolls

in Majesty of Sorrow

that cries for what is truly seen

and thought allows

no one spared belief or Fate

or ought of what Humanity inspires.

What Once the Lords of Time embraced

or Queens of Golden Fields’ forlornness

wandered in seek of Grace

to still allow that Wakefulness Be born

still raging, strikes upon the start

of flying darts and down-bent-right

to thrash in its Tale, the Art

with Hermes and Apollo's Might…

yet what some Dragon wishes

in snort of failing worlds for Rage

is but the tinkling dishes

of Artemis, beseemed…

but worth of simple soul knows such things

and bends the bow of Light

which, ware of thought, takes aim

with Neptune's great belief

to pierce and slay the grand conceit.

String the Bow

draw taught the Line

and aim upon the Brow

of Sun and Moon of Man

or in thought for pride of self

write the Designs

which Ark of Aeons owned.

When then upon the darkened Sea

and drenched with fury of the unjust reign

ask what Dagon sought to gain

in stealing Pearl of God and Pain…

then tinkle salt upon the wire

in will of Life unfulfilled

and, sudden pissing, be inspired

with jolts of Power, stunned!

Not yet told

is what the Panther of Night holds

or cat-paw stomping can perform

in subtle ways of old

or darker embers wreak

with sulfured fuming

of sacred musing

in the Dark of Life, or lap

of the many hungry

in quest of Water

and who clap

in praise of Thunder

on the breast of Fire

when Fury rests

in Phoenix’ Nest

or otherwise expires in death

of Ash and Waste of worldly tombs

for every social norm…

such is more bold

but set in peace

of preferential treatment

of itself, sorrow made

and kept in ancient rest

for the secret sneaking

hunts still upon the Void

of seeming men…

such Eye of sight is Silence

but may roar, too much annoyed

with worlds and ways of men

less discerning

yet more boasting, proud

than Wisdom in the sage

has wrought for Truth.

 

Black as Night the Paw

and sleek as Sin the Maw

into whose teeth

the sons of men lurch with lust

who must

cut themselves on Ivory

or Pearl Drops see

from out their torn times

the waking pretence of worldly power

for estimate of pretended Joy

more glad for simple loss of fools

than when sleeping Panthers slipped the Night

and let fly the Hunt their hide and seek inspired.

Meow, Meow

the kit employs

a cry upon the Air

twisted tales

or desperate wails

sounding what none have dared…

such lap of luxury has set

a place for orphans' crying

undoing what the learned left

for the politics of lies.

She calls upon the Lunatic

and whistles on the Wind-

write the Score of gods, bereft

in signs of hopelessness and sin!

Allow, Allow

mellow rest in seeming

for what the worthy can…

Call, Call

for Roost of meaning

or be prey to Pan.

Catch as catch can

of believing

or, disavowed

the ancient Hearth

and source of being

fall naked upon All.

Some mock, like barking dogs, the sound

or doubting, front on Revelation…

though Life bids them well

more strength they need

than Atlas wrapped upon the Stone

or, drinking down the sweetest Mead

in semblance of Sisyphus’ sin

must heave and belch the times, disowned.

Ruby like the rising dawn

or white in ribbons of the Sun

the Abyss yet must, mirrored, yawn

and gulp down folly men have known

whirling on the twisted way

the fool for loss has loved

in sight of pretended fact

or in every bit become betrayed

to what their greedy minds begun.

 

dum, dum, dum

drumming of flight

comes, comes, comes

circumspection might.

Weep in Will, O Past

pluck the newborn suns...

shed the tearing Eye, begun

when first espied your best

wandering upon the Way

too much a Sojourn ken

of thought and musing

too much betrayed

of learning and praise of men.

No cunning now shall prove

as was made

when Pride and Greed was wrought

but dropped from bloody wrong, allayed

the Night, all wrath of men and justice bought.

 

Tempted from the grip of Fate

set peace upon the Might

such patient and sacred Muse

and whispering to the Cobra's spite

fronted upon the worthless sight

and Fangs of Facing, pure delight

owned every Shade and abuse!

but rest of Sea

a touch of release from Power

but flatly set

in preparation of the pouring Fire

this is their own

raging still with doubt

or pointing out

whom among them

God most adores

more temples are restored

than what is wrought but Hermes;

the Cave of Knowing bored

the gods, though Apollo speaking

some Augury his kin would have

in trust of Walking Stick

which Arrows gave, and withheld

Artemis for burning...

the Promethean wick

or Atlean shoulders

of sublime INTENT

is not yet spent

but burns still

upon my I and window sill

coins I have

stacked to the Wall

seeming and believing

heaps of Silver

Gold, and All

glistening of living...

wings of Dove

or forms of Light

or Eagle lofting on the Air

I own my Passion

and the Night

Fenris cannot dare

IF I sign my Name in Scrypt

of Numbers, the Line defined...

what is it to Our Mother

who whispers, tainting my Alloy?

allow, allow

I heard it said

ring upon the Sphere

bow, bow

your ruby head

and whiten every Tear

may I pretend

and Measure, my Rod

in step of Folly

or point out

the Heavens?

ought I then, in open honesty

wander every field the mind can wring

and flit my golden fleet upon the wind

in service of their vast depravity?

know THIS, even as IS known

Our Heart:

what Light and Life is flown

is U and I, My sacred Dart

or first pulled back to see

then knotching Arrow, let flee

the last, upon THEE

pick upon the Poles and guess

what Circumvention means

or raise again our House of Old

from Ash, the Phoenix seemed

believe: THIS:

when once begun

it rolls into BLISS

and rides the SUN

Membering

or Contest

the Truth has won

spoils the Remonstrance

in plead of One

Silencing

I would they harness on the Wing

my sibling token of the Hour

and Reign upon the Silver Din

of Bells, struck of Power

no Idol of a Doctor's farce

it wends the way of seeming

then turns upon every Force

smelting on the sum, believing..

it wends, it wends

it never ends...

may We abide in IT!

did I forget?

I think it not

but quit the Bed of Ages...

nothing of my darling lost

nor Sea of Tears, raging

have I let slip

but slept upon the tide of Time

Wondering

Can Any fault me then

when the Work is open wrought

in Pain and War

or elsewise taught

upon the String

Our Sages bought

or Sorrow bore?

such things, once slumbered on the mind

of dormant men or education

yet awakes to more define

the Limits of every Moderation

it blows, it blows

who may know

to Reign upon the Air..

who knows, who knows

what is stowed

to stave starvation’s' lair?

IT thunders on the Sky

in no abuse of Air

and rattles Earth, no Reason Y

to kiss the raging Bolts of Fire

sic sumus videmus

sic sumus contendemus Veritum

(a touch of rationality is Tincture)

how luscious is the might of Time

when words do not dismay

nor hold in thrall, the mortal mind

for proof of mirrored gold, delayed?

how sweet is Death, whose Comb

reaps the mob of every ease

and, slitting lions of the Field

plucks out Life's generosity

possessed, possessor

how it seems...

tokens of the lesser right

or spitting, pissing, more obscene

peers on Solar worth, rehearsed

...or the Man

plucks not enough of the leaves

spread out in verdant praise

of Paradise?...

ever think twice

my Soul

before, by Cockatrice

you ope' the whole

or in any way offend

what's owned in each

or doubt of Self beseech

in contradiction of Grace

we all must own

an even on the paling thought

lend for love-

salve to our own folly...

wending wreaths, the Holly

and hung high

upon the Door of Heart

our blessed Mistletoe

ninny this or ninny that

who is our Cousin?

smelt down the Fat

and, lean, stretch out the Oven's wrath...

we bide it like we bide the Times

and lurched upon the Wheel

breathe Fire of the Ageless Climb

in hope of Glory, shared or dared

dear darlings of the cherished Host

leave off the wandering

and clasp the Angels...

Smote and Roast

every bit of floundering

and flee the Angles.

We are every bit

of broken Hearted

Smashed in Rock of Ruin...

We are the flit

of Light which started

this awful mess for Odin

CAWCAW

it flies upon the Abyss

and yoking to the Midnight Ray

Calls the Sun and Moon for Love

too once amiss

but raging now in some display

burdens: all of Care...

learned fold of thought, beware

and drop no copper coin

into the Siren's wishing well

of lusty self-conception

of secret wrath and budding Tares

Devil does not Laugh

Ceres rent her Robes

I shall snatch

Saturn rung a Ruin

THESE THINGS ARE SEEMING

IT wasn't but a Night ago

IN FACT

I cut the Cards

and did not look to react

but 4 by 4 spread out

my 5x10...

the Seer watched, then

as Time stood still

and Furnace of my Waking

wandered round the empty Still

Thundering, and Shaking

I wrote upon the Silence, then

When Kings and Queens and Rooks

unraveled on the papered fen

a Proof for every telling Book

I wrapped them up

and cornered ALL

garnering my Mother's Sup

I locked the Doors and took Luck

To Janus and Uranus' Stall

for wait of Orphean Pluck

Place them as you find them...

let them roar and rip

the pages we condign

as everything of work and wit

like sparrows, who love to flit

unwitting seek the sublime

or Race upon the Scene

and take the Sparrow with U

in drop of all that is obscene

my Hart and Roe divined the true

Please

Release

We do not Cum

Who has seen My Widow

Senator's suns have said

silver spoon in hand-

Make your own Way

then in hand, it turned Red

struck forth the Day

so Urgent...

Proof of Powers arrangement

keep that Coin, my dear

if aught it comforts thee

and use when, upon Fear

you float the vacant Lethe

Heaps of Mail, Wonder wrought

Our Metals bear the Form

and cling, like Shadow of Thought

upon the backbent Norms

Yet Attention pays it Still

and plucking on the Yore

sings Fire into Wisdom, spent

for Teaching of the Lord

lick up that Death

or let pour Down

that All of Each resounds

what thy secret has Sown

drink IT Down

then hung UP the PHONE

TRUTH be told

I cannot tell

If I AM coming or going

so soft, yet so bold

the Aeons are a Ringing

IT is some Shyster

this I know

though ever kept toe Learning

but LOVE is Guise

the World, a Show

danced into Might and Meaning

ITS ALL

Justas Well

and reaps the Sheaves

dropped upon the Spell

everything's a tuning

song upon the whole

singing, dancing, playing

unknown dervishes of old

here is a Tale of recent Expedition

when I let down a stunned review

and stood at Death's Door...

there he lay upon the verge

eaten up with guilt

and silent as the Tomb slipping fast

upon the void

but I caught him by the ankle

and warmed up his Cockle

just enough not to wake

but for witness of his fate

if he ought choose Life

then here it lay

at his feet

come see, O sleeper

I said

and know what Way you Go

I was the White Lion for him

and lapped at his feet

my kind affection...

what is it to me that

standing there

Red Lion laps his maw

but not for comfort?

could I do more

and lift this untempered thng

into the Might of Victors'?

rather, that he might see

what choice avails

and that no thng

is aught of loss

except one's own

wasted in folly of pride

or tossed on greedy waves

of vain ambition...

the time has come

and what is whispered in secret

they shall find

shout from the rooftops-

I Sea U

some call IT such

if Number counting

but the whole

is writ for fame of Life

no bit quavering

upon the darkest doom

or wasting cry of banshee

but on that score

I would say

I'd rather be

a pagan child

suckled in Forest Wood

upon the lap of Integrity

than raised upon Alters

of gold or ivory or whirling jasper

and have no meekness with it

but constant strutting

of self-conceit

and pretended security

a laugh is heard on the horizon...

they too shall come down

and take their place

among the orphaned rags

U and I

are One

I O U

U O Me

some simplicity

in aggregate of each

closes out the sum

and fixes right

the nether reaches

and sets firm for all

foundation upon the vast ABYSS

U do well then

and hook your line

to what beseems the best

for a time

or being free

move from light to light

in perfect harmony

though sometimes seeming

a flight on Chaos

I'll hash something out

in way of response

but it must wait

some clarity for seeing

as I am not threw

cleaning up my mess

my silvered tress

yet dangling in the mire

of past stompings

I could not avoid

but get it done

while yet Day

and wave it rested

upon the heart

a quenched Need

my tears wiped clean

IT comes

be patient for seeing

dear I of mine and yours

it will not tarry long

but will break upon the Sky

a Vision of US

and Life of All

I could say how I strung them there

and point up how in tow

the Earth and Moon and Sun

now guards against somethng

which not far off

would have smashed them

and for sure

there would be nothing now

but awesome fear and trembling

such has not been seen

since men first rose

to mock the gods

in claim of Limits

and let loose

the Fate unbidden

Behold

the School of Ages

everlasting embrace

no tortured Knot entwined

but smooth as glass

the face of face beheld

and Open Glory

neither awing nor in awe

save Majesty of Being

mounting and subsiding on the Vale

of crystal Seeing

has anybody some Blue Ice

oh, no wait

I see some there, on the Frozen Pond

just a kick or two, or three, or four, or five

maybe 6 kicks of cat-paw stompings near

pesky, aren't they

over hear

I keep Ravens

Proudly set down

Silent Sentinels of the Bedchamber

here S is some Identity

and crowns the whole

it seems that some have thought

love in reserve

and bind their hope in knots

for keep of their preserve

when will they guess

that open arms

of life and destiny

conspire in all to bless

with lovely charms

without discrepancy?

the bird its nest shall tend

like rain upon the grass

and every corner bend

each blade on next, surpassed

when all is wrapped

upon the bough

and round the corners wended

it starts again, the second show

and padding of the down

set nice for birdies tending

this is our hope, more broader wrought

not in particulars of thought

but rounded in the woods of mind

contend that others' sun may shine.

IT’s not because I left the borders of this realm

nor that the lover fails in holding part

but much on the Horizon calls

and some weeping yet…

not from loss, or regret

but wrought upon the Fact

we yet embrace our ken

and groan within

reaching past the moment

clasp of our tomorrow

hand in hand

the Sojourn band

of friends, lovers, kin…

much lies ahead

and fields to harvest won

covering the bet

cast on the Ages: One

tending the open plain

seers eat some bread

and peer on what to gain

or let slip by as dead

prophets espy upon the sky…

winds of Fortune blown

wondering why

the Glory has not yet flown

but bent upon IT all

some Vision stands alone…

set to stage a funeral

for vanity, too rashly owned.

I groan under such strain

and wish my life take flight

and wave this folly and pain

inherited or begot-

good bye…

would another clutch my hand

and firm set upon the loss

while fixing all, withstand

temptations to be boss...

if this I'd find, all is gain

while trudging in the field

and loss of self maintain

to boasted Worth, ought-contained…

there upon the lofting wave

that rises but to kiss the Air

it bothers not the one to save

but owns what is its latent fare…

no grasping want or greedy need

nor fear upon the open surge

it rises, falls, with blatant glee

of being, spent or lost in every urge…

such as is fair, the wafting goes

while finer sentiments are gleaned

but raging in the billows blown

the torrents of the untamed sea…

Soul on fire…

some must needs

pluck this Key together

more daunted

the wasting daughters

whose tears

you do best to recognize

your happy anticipation

the rest is Membership

like our great Oak

lately rent

but honey drawn

eye for I

a welcomed trade

of pain and virtue…

rilling stones

or desert dried

on the wasteful…

strength upon the lame

sight upon the blind, or speech

a willing wish once dipped

by Angel stirrings

lovely whispered…

Wake from the Dream

U sleep

and kiss upon Insight

whose luscious thing

falls like fluttering wings

upon the spiraled sight

wending green and gold

flakes of whispered hair

in golden sunshine led…

a fairies mist

or tinkled

melody

dust of gold a flaking

whisped wonder on the wind

and floats there yet

away from such

rape the daughters

and all the rest despised

let fly there

upon the bough

and fling thy razen dart

smack between

defend the Roe

IT’s fishy fishy

for the worlds

of teardops loved

stand greeting, alone

thy beloved…

then drop a line

and share the half

each in each adore;

but when you part

an bubbles spin

let rule the cool

so do not haste

to wend thy lair

as much of ought

I did not get there

before you came

but we simply met

upon the same

and sane

seigning the past....

been too long

since I felt this way

Today is the Day

too strong not to Analyze

what's holding down…

Turn IT around

send upon the dog the rabbit

and see how far they fly...

IT's a bastard

but I SEE MYSELF

in a brandneway

seen of the rectified

seen of all

Victors' to All

ear to the wall

didn't know for sure

how to play it

but didn't take long

to understand

slung way down low

O boxed Hero

or come down

too hard...

I'll be there

to share the land

to shake your hand

given away

when WE live

Together, Now

talkin bout Together

Now

make Project of it

U'r painted Vision

My Verse

cast broad and wide

feeding the tide

of seeking

or beseeming

more lovely than a waking dream

to waft along the wave

and pluck the seeming weave

of care in the believing

gentle as a musing nurse

upon the darling child

a care of grace and rest

for wanderers among the wild

blessed hope

cherished wrought

restoration ropes

hung for joy, by weeping bought

and every worthily bespoke

fixed Chaos to the Light

dangling

like chandeliers

the spangled banner

of thought

rejoice rejoice

it is the Day

thy Promises forborne

writ broad upon the lay

thy lovely choice

of owning the forlorn

gentle sister

loving maid

mother of the born

catch the Cisterns

fill the Way

with Milk of Knowing Lore

this is thy praise

this is my meet

set to raise

thy loving seat

catch thy hand

set thee down

and all the world espy...

this is thy land

my crowning towns

for thee and aught contrived

confirm thy worth

then breathing deep

contract the maze

to flowers in a heap

this is the waking Might

worked through with kindness

frightful Light

of ageless sowing, blindness

no bit allowed

or in the Night

bent to wrong of Person

all endowed

with Life and learning...

You will see by my tenor and thought

what concerns me

and where my fixed resolve lays

in respect of your honor

but I can freely confess how

greedy as I am for Beauty...

could I embrace these things of Vision

as my own

I would not hesitate

to smash some Porcelains of ancient renown

in exchange...

if but to embrace

to glide along the lovely Vision

work of such lovely affection

a moved and moving understanding

O that I would drink my thirsty Cistern full

and flow like Ganges or Egypt's fame

to flood Horizons with sweet effluvia of living...

Today has been my almost constant attention

to these wondrous lights of seeing

pure as the honest touch

more kind than gentle Zephyrs on my mind

and grace...

deep breathing contemplation

patient willing...

warmth of allaying taste..

aesthetic glare of sweet or sublime sight...

home in going

rest in getting there...

cycled doing

constant met thy Fortune's lovely care...

awesome plan

understanding hands...

upright raised and worthy met

discipline within the daughters' eyes

dauntless courage, knowing day

once ever set

my mind slips its reel

and I wander upon music

not too subtle on the dreaming

but wonderful the weary pilgrims

still happy in a tinman's rags...

breath deep, breath slow

and set thy heart to drumming...

let it roll, more patient roll

and mend the world to loving...

it circulates this THING, ya know

and wends the very depths of living...

turns again in praise of dying

sown to seed the field

with rich and fragrant growing...

spiders silk or fishes breathe

the wending way for living

yet worked upon the Year Of Aught Alert

to need and types of Will still seething...

some falsehood passed between

and they spoke for themselves...

then she spoke secretly

and I knew

they were but servant

of some lesser wish

and no aspiring light

which all admire

too lisping on their health

complaint or boredom

too tired now

to make good war

upon the disputed foes

but who, like friends

take semblance of their interest

then descried

to stupid trudging

naught relied on

grace or patient believing...

what manner this

in twisted way beseeming

or kept to special bliss

strikes the mind with charms unseen?

it's wasted, wasted, wasted now

it's wrapped in shadows bleeding

into the Mist

too dismissed

from what is stowed

for lovers and their singing

shake not the shadows

when espied

the wedding's great address...

or blown to bellows

that once relied

on proud affront and unconstraint?

break and smash

and waste and ruin

lay low the false assuming towers...

shake the rust and slash

the war to sin and doom

sent uncalled upon the powers

no patient seeming then partake

nor waste the moment under Harvest Moons

but snatch, latch, attach thy stake

of knowing proof, the few allured

IT's a steady sense

to be sure

and patient heartbeat

upon the moment

unsurprised by aught

nor dismayed

by any waking

sleeping thought

arrayed

or in the making

tempt what all may relate

sleeping guise or waking pride

the wending is a weaver's stride

who reckons not too much the hide

it weaves or falsehood's doubt ascribe

less shaking than a spider's bower

lipstick kissing, entertwined to mend

the luscious tramping, every hour

refreshed in suckling their ends

peering wonder

silent thunder

all espied

aught relied

every way

descried

for seeing on the open Day

ponder ponder

ever wonder

hope allayed

every thing betrayed

to what's a lie

in fact upon the proving Way

scream, fast, rend thy clothe

burn down thy mountains forlorn

and cast the heavens' bones lost

to vagrant wishing or the falsely born

haha

I laugh and cry

not sure I weep for joy

blabla

my reasons why

these tears are too alloyed

no trembling loss

to empty cups

the burden yet contrives

for knowing lives

or filling cups

to steady peace of gods

step steady then

or prance, they praise

or patient on the allured

keep the mends

and pluck the wild lays

of ancient births and cures.

whist thy wishes

thank thee kindly

talk upon the mane

and every pilgrim greeting

bless them blindly

in hope of all sustained

my blessed crew

forgotten lot

too tempted by the waves

while much folly wrought

to living, lose

or wishing front upon the brave

all I remember

are the Dreams

in the Mist

or

when I close my I's

I live another life

too cold outside

rainbows in my eyes

candle in my grip

no empty words

fallen from false lips

these dreams

seek when cold outside

moments awake

further awake

for all of worth derived

or satisfy thirst to slake

and still remake

joy from tears that seem

something out there

none can resist

world full of Princes

Freedom is a Kiss

but Princes have their spell

in moments of the Night

where all of vain reliance

or the belching of nether hell

from light in flight of might

bend and lift compliance

and set to motion

Oceanus

in the turning and solution

clinch the emotions deep

and purge the stalls

involving all

to sight in knowing

not in sleep

their Vision showing

in marriage of the Princess

hold a moment

and still the thought

much is enterprised here

not for loneliness

or what is taught

of contending tears

wait upon a moment

and wish it on prayer

our dreams come true

for love shared

some portion of a living hope

among many families

and lost daughters

who contend for pride of wealth

to tread for honest glee

or bind fast upon the princes

our great Sheave and relief

some boast upon the worth

whose temptation is in seeming

then bending one to many births

for control or political believing

are wrecked upon the start

and foiled projects teeming

to unity upon a single hearth

I saw two sets of eyes

peering from front to back

and left to right

they both espied

their own reflection's lack

and each to light

pick your harvest fields

and start plucking

for when We Are done

little fare will be left to yield

upon the hunting

on what the gods have begun

some challenge

I suppose

of thought and wishing

worthy yet of balance

on what no name knows

but what is proof of Being

bid it well, bid well thy state

as all of it is bestowed

upon thy wishing, late

or of worthy care allowed

and lent to life a true belief

that set to stone what All betakes

will you figure this yet

how I wait in wish you hear

and do not doubt

what I had proven

defending 'gainst

some insistent carp

in bulwark of your privacy

but which dolt

near wrecked for sake of pride

and made almost unfriends

forsaken trusts

of meeting...

it lives yet

and aspires

wish for sure and understand

We set a Furnace on the Word

our hope assured and lent

for patience to the True

there is no bother of folly

if idiots rule or talkers talk

as all are wasting ken

too much of squawking

or the privelaged walk

that few indulge and win

Crashing comes

an awful Wave

undoing all that's done

nothing forestalled

wisdom wrung

from the grave

its accusation's doom

wove on the lesser rung

for wiped ways

while all the rest involved

the moment here

and, lovely solved

in seeking yet the year

our seeing

everlasting sung

to Life and Glory

in the Way

and endurance won

for Thanks and Praise

of sacred Lay

every bit of every worthy whirl

of language and the remonstrance

paints fine as color on the canvas of the world

for whole and impressive elegance

We leap upon the scale

and whirl, almost asleep

with steep beseeming

turn to slower dales

for lead of sheep

upon the resting

This is my lurching on the LAMBDA

too much of wonder

to leave underived

by best of care...

I'm sorry you felt to dare

upon the face of this contrived

with Power and Force of Nature's thunder

wrought secretly for Momma

but sisters thine

my way had tempted

and aught before I knew

from out the shrine

sprung voice determined

to stretch the Line of the true

not thine, dear soul

this fault of willing

others have allowed

and from the whole

wrenched our trilling

to shrill the widowmaking sounds

make quick the work

and do not install

a sight to the beseeming

but all of wishing shirk

to that your faith bestows

for hope and our believing

I'll plead my case

their case

or aught

the way of willing scoff

and mend the days

to leisure's pace

of thought...

our ends of loving taught

for patience in the race

some tribulations crossed my mind

since last eve...

dark musings

and threat of overturning

much contested and thrown back

complaint of others

no bit denied myself of Fortune

but increased many fold in face accusation...

worthy born among several

and thee,too aught implied by seeing virtue

no part inscribed to conflict among these

nor me, but rest upon assured face of living loving

hoping best and patient seeking

ever lifting the might of faith

upon our true horizon...

but here I must renew

what whirlwinds wrought of seeming

and the sky let drop

some torture of dissimulation...

and so confess how rived has it seemed

this last adventure

with twisted ways of need and interest...

wonder that we don't gobble all down

in one great, greedy, boisterous table of devouring...

some day perhaps, some day soon

or rage to inflaming

and sudden sweeping of the fields...

did you see, since last

that Synchronicity was mentioned

and was let fly

that thing that makes ya go...hmmm...

how my horizons, not yet known to others

was whirled to light of Inspection

and the Stars fell slow and bright

upon the midnight sky...

round and round as first was seen

that Led of Lightning Thunders

shed across the sky

full view the setting sun of day

and thrashed upon the outer ring

in tow of our circumvention...

another volley wended lower on the verge

and passed the Polar realms

under the outer fringe of darting Led...

both ranging to their fixation

among the temporal lights

no bit denied of witness for those

whose flashing eyes

peer hard down upon the coasts

and circumspect the doings among folly

or cruising the plane

mark out the boarders of my Field...?

these ways are seeming

and we bear what needs be

all things of tiding owned

or by the true believing

wrought to life our being

or knowing yet, shed tears below

what's with this wide careening

that passes bounds severe

and all this whispered peeping

bout things left bereft

or out the nether sphere

sudden on the stark of seeing

forgot what love bequeathed?

I tell you this

I will not wholly sleep

nor slumber asking why

but all this shit

cast to bails and keep

for yet another mucking sty

nor wondering on vacant ways

shall folly tempt determination

in what it owns of fleeting days

that ponder much discrimination

it's done, it's done

it's yet in doing

all this wayling ken

who run, and run

pretending fun

in what has ever been

but what we make of worthy days

no loss forestalled, illumination

yet bestows upon our ways

the answer, each deliberation

it calls to m

your steady light

in question of that past...

It ponders coming, going

seeking ways for wishing

and the noble things that last...

lingering upon the embedded hearth

it wafts along the scent of rosy gardens

and the shade of cool spring brooks

the fountain poured below

a kind refreshing

or sturdy upon the hardened facts

seeks to rule the shades and nooks

among the mountains

sown for deep attending...

such awful sight

such fierce and honored cause

holding fast as tight

as sailors to the main

against all crashing loss...

pretty heroes

braided thoughts in lay to Fortune

Aser kin of Bridges and Borders

and Ways...

hurrah, they stand and stow!

Gods help me speak

more plain…

it was my loss

some short time ago

to feel your wondering

though I count it false

to kiss another then blow

ever to the pleasant pondering.

I rightly see

and ought confess

some wrong my way attending...

I lay upon the raging sea

and dragons dress

for righteousness and truth befriending;

so if I smoke and smolder

it is no fault of them or thine

but stench of me in Mordor

holding back volcanic times.

Pray thee, clap upon the steerage

this ship of state intend

for sail to life and noble peerage

we share and would defend.

It's not that I await your way

nor bend in knee to what I've done

but that another living day

shall lift to light our dipping sun

more wonder of wonders

ancient wending

worlds to wandering

bound or loosing horns

the potent thing

groaning to be born

for might and satiate of each betrothed

our common heart;

we learn to better own

though I clearly know

what acid belching alarms

for extreme and violent conception

or what dragons breathing performs

for quaking in the mist and power

to shake the norms

or stretch the weaving of the Norns

caught as we catch, or can

from contest fall through light to Oblivion

too fast, almost, for angelic flight

in what the ancient heart withstands

of every loss

and willing…

I fall, I fall

through stepped kingdoms

seeking yet our All…

forestall, forestall

my palling Aeons

and let the halls

of risen hope be sped

to each in all and all in each, foregone

for hope of life and lightning streaming.

 

I know you well then

when your interest rose to thought

and conversation bent

our own ideas, free begot

no complicated mass

thy soul aspires

my own is passed

if thy hope retires

and leaves all cast

to that merely admired

I wish more than I can keep

and embrace as broad as my arms

extending to better reap

my kind to bursting barns

I would thy salvation stow

to temples of this quavered mind

some portion of thy whole

to fit the narrow recess I've designed

I pad thy bed and fluff thy noble rest

in honor of thy bleeding past

that hangs

like crimson curtains

thy best

and musings

of seeming certain

what more is left

our bower to maintain

of what bereft

for power to retain?

we shall maintain

as we have lived

and nothing gain

save that we give

what is the same

of faint believing

for equality, arranged

lend thy self, I say

and burden all tomorrow

if but thy present slain

to free aught guilt or sorrow

perhaps I speak more plainly

and lift a thought to paradise

as it seems to me

and mainly

just express my innocent surprise

of what allays to see:

pages of a Gallery

set nice among the things

and orbs of Fantasy

set to stage what wonder rings

tidings of the awful time

and ends the soul a searching

for whole or rounded kinds

of personality or proven being...

is this enough

or shall we delve

the empty space of seeming

speak...relief to all

the many healed

for fullness of the time believing?

bid me raze

no idle edifice

nor hasty

under a shadow phase

send rushing to amaze

this world

or bless

the wasting days

my worth unfurled

upon their empty guess...

it's all well and good

you distend upon my idle dares

and all this wishing, understood

make gold from straws of care

I bid thee make

what all of wishing you may prove

and every loosened stake

uproot and plant on borders of thy good

I will not tempt upon dismay

to force thy wayling days

nor bend thy thoughts arrayed

in service of some lesser way

but set upon my stone

I wonder yet to life

what is lost, what I own

of all this riven strife

match this University of Thought

and fly to meet thy wishing

from sweat of brow

and blood of sorrow bought

to reap and sow

thy noble contriving

binding and loosing All

brickyards, brickyards

build up the brickyards

thy ken awake

and this relate...

fix it soon

change as the moon

and everything ingratiate

catch the fate

and steady as the noon

tear down folly to mediate

my brickyards

brickyards

build up the brickyards

Happy Jupiter's Day!

Thor's Hammer wafts the Air

and smotes upon the smoking Mountain...

Allay Allay Allay

Aser kin the gods forbear

to ridge along the vaulted Ceilings

remake, remake, remake

these sacred halls befallen

and all the loss of Summer, retake

to gain of Father calling...

thy members all betake"
