Damaged

What makes my life so tragic?

That I want to die
And like magic
I become
Healed
Made of Stone
Cascaded in pain
Looking for love
I am damaged

RETURN TO PARADISE

A dull wet pop
and who could know
such a thing would make life stop
as surely as a bullet's blow?

Then a wavering of everything
and I come awake
to a cool place where wild birds sing
where a spring is there my thirst to slake.

The forest duff is deep and soft
inviting me to stay and sit
while scattered clouds drift by aloft
while in eyes' corners boojums flit.

Wrinkles of Gold

Like origami
Every fold a line of gold
A simple symbol
But pay respects to how complex

I have an image in my mind
Of steady hands
Folding paper
Into an origami frog

First here and then there
Forward, backward
Up and down
Together and apart
And back together again

Wrinkled, perhaps
Like the paper craft
Itself

A frog of paper
A frog of flesh

When we’re done
Will we remember
Each fold?
The work
That went into
Each organ,
So to speak?

New Year's Day

The old year is out
The new year is in
We all waited for it to begin
Now the new year is here to stay

Goodwill abounds
From friends and family all around
That this year will be
Better than the last gone past

Sunrise

Underlying beauty, glazing sky,
here you are to greet me.
Intangible colors, rising.
awakening cold heart at dawn.

It feels like green eyes can see;
for the very first time!
A soul that's stirring up,
a full pot of bright thoughts,
brimming the edge of serenity.
Although bricks and bough's stand in way,
you are holy, beaming love,
on this winters day.

Wait Within My Colton Friend

at every chance at the slight of a glance barbed wire fence within advance..,
Johnny came out from the attic can you seek to cut it from above yet,
a rod and stain tossed brevity as easy as it may seam
given power in the pay check seeking self to please
running out of steam

slow at the staff ignored at the advance
heros breed a dime a dozen
Warhol sought his 15 minutes of fame
guided nurse we kiss and plow

Aura Star

beneath the rubble throughout
tumble thimble want to bee
sought through of curtain wanna be
circle through the defiance years to see
pudding in the cup just wait and see
there look at parting vestibules in there distance
I exist as a vapor then I am no more

The Study

I’m the only object moving in the room.
A place that is exactly the same as I left it;
like the sudden alertness after anesthesia.
