and anchor wisdom with ink (blog entry) *this will need some revisiting and fine tuning*

It wouldn’t be fair to lay those feathers
on grounds unfamiliar with lightness
Their touch of colour is bound for flights
of skin readied by destiny’s weight
Freefall scares can’t stop a stro... read more

Dusks Dissection (blog entry) *After a year and a half of ruminations, I've mulched over a different version of the first poem I posted here on tribe*

My ovation to evolution (blog entry) It lives this island at the mouth of an ocean
translated from fire to this watery language
kept a taste of heat a hint of spice flowers the wind

Jan.23, 2008 (blog entry) I'm sitting directly on the rocks of the beach
There's only a faint wind and the sun shines
High tide, little waves; the kelp field undulates
Ducks and seagulls visit this meeting place
Where the Earth greets the Water
Where the horizon stret... read more

The Music Clashes (blog entry) It's a chaos within which spurs
this excruciating excitement beyond me
notes collapse in boundless territory
land bodies swallow bomb explosions

Bare this infertile intimacy says
the coupling beats to my swollen heart
What if I can't hold ... read more

*this will need some revisiting and fine tuning*

It wouldn’t be fair to lay those feathers
on grounds unfamiliar with lightness
Their touch of colour is bound for flights
of skin readied by destiny’s weight
Freefall scares can’t stop a stroke or caress
gives us one chance to grasp god’s gasp
at work in our motion stilled

It would be sacrilegious to understand
how a humpback prevails on killer whales
Its airborne leap is to consciousness
what in evolution drew us to desire

*After a year and a half of ruminations, I've mulched over a different version of the first poem I posted here on tribe*

NO Not long enough
the dusting of lavender
Skies: causes for longing Oh!
tender life Yes, how to hold
Those brief passings of eternities

Thus I envy envy the evening eye
and the peaceful parting
between day and night
Again yet again smiling to
the brightness of the bones...

What magic lays therein?
Behold how dusks dissect with
turning winds their own i... read more

It lives this island at the mouth of an ocean
translated from fire to this watery language
kept a taste of heat a hint of spice flowers the wind

A sea's a strait here stretches more than liquid shapes
history of deep peaks backs surface scales to skin
while these creatures crawl floors beneath baby's feet
become roof's future and it's why we stand

This notion moved us upright

Swimming's now a march to mark a new hierarchy
from prints in the sand to sky scraping aspirations

I'm sitting directly on the rocks of the beach
There's only a faint wind and the sun shines
High tide, little waves; the kelp field undulates
Ducks and seagulls visit this meeting place
Where the Earth greets the Water
Where the horizon stretches the eye; half a blink
The crown of the sky lowers the mountain's edge
In anticipation for an embrace that ever fails
What falls here no one catches cold handed

It's a chaos within which spurs
this excruciating excitement beyond me
notes collapse in boundless territory
land bodies swallow bomb explosions

Bare this infertile intimacy says
the coupling beats to my swollen heart
What if I can't hold my lover's
hard raging motion inside my insides

When entire societies thrive on
witnessing hosts of this blinding mystery
So what's with words raw and unchewed
spat past the 7 images of their broken mirrors

when dance is not my own volition... read more
