Poetry

Speaking to the Wind

Streaming in currency of musical scale
You carve out a space with invisible touch

Kissing the flames in tiers of terse color
You smoke and burn the dew-dampened wood

 You move without sight, yet blinded are not
Feeling your way in chime and song

Moaning and singing without a distinction
You play in the trees with ceaseless vibration

 You light and lift the garment of Soul
With hymns that flit in patterned frivolity

 

 

 Dancing in death, you stifle a breath
Held short but a while, then released in new naissance

 Would you lift up the dust into storms of asymmetry
Converging the earth as if Life could stand still?

Poetry

8 Months…

A month, a day, an hour,
A minute, a moment, a nanosecond –
It surges forth, this nothing from nowhere,
Dissolving the framework of all familiarity.

 From its null greatness, it spirals downward
Collecting in complexity the tiniest point, barely seen…
Without disappearing, it lights in the distance,
Beaconing in brightness – a yearning of closeness!…
