Frost

I am the strongest of the strong
So weak my bones will snap, from the pressure
your touch

I am the bravest of the brave
So scared I might never let you, in
I am the highest of the high
small and short of sight

I will never forget
I am the coldest of the frost
My heart is chilled
my lungs are glossed

Tired and pale in summers heat
tanned and scorched from winters streets

We all have been here
A familiar place
When do we come back,
When i see your face?

Thank you for everything I have
and for everything I have lost
Thank your for all the people
and all of life's costs

Broken prose and tinkling phrase
Words are the keys to the minds maze

Dear Beloved,

I ask you why so much pleasure with matching pain.
I see you in most things, other things i cannot.
Missing the time of day, I wonder what your asking of us
What we must do ourselves, we are silent.
Passive and lax
I wonder when we will listen.
we each have a path and are told of one another's
Understanding our differences
Are we not supposed to observe these things?
we have turned humanity on one another
stabbing and spitting,
We don't want to break line
and call what we see
a culture of sadistic capitulation
and complacency
hard questions are ignored
trust is broken and misinformation is free
We need you we need each other

Do you?

Accept it all?
Question everything?
Scrutinize your faith?
Love unabashedly?
Feel subtle loss and change?
Tire from conformity?
Test your boundaries?
Tire of patterns?
Kiss the unexpected?
Seek when you don't like what you find?
Believe in truth?
Trust in facts?
Know the truth?

I have missed a place called home. I am here and so are you.

Cramped in introspection
honestly scared of my reflection
So I have never seen...
immortal in love
seeking a fresh vein
only the sun will wash the pain

the pain

keeps me questioning

Clarity...

I miss....
steps taken
looking at my receipts of communication
my trail of perception
dancing in the wind
highs and lows floating
stirred in the ice and glass
we connect
honest laughter
surreal surrender
to the most basic of all needs
companionship
wanting to be together and separate
our dialectic is clear
unlike most days
its naturally unnerving
comfortably confusing
however we breathe
not misstepping
without creating
reflecting
and living
happily on a journey
going nowhere and everywhere
I'm happy
nothing is (=) so satisfying
we trade trails
sorrow is easy
pain is calm
pictures are vivid
there is all the time in the world

Dirt

I put my hands in the ground

Wood and Iron cutting into the landscape

I though of a different time

where the land was connected to the people

my love moves

I want to touch the tender

love of the earth in another

natural

i need more time

sew more seeds

to understand

all that i have been fighting against

all that i have been fighting for

trust

we will grow together

with my hands

my mind

i will not give up until

there is plenty

for all

until i give more than the world needs

until it overflows into and the hungry are full

and the blind see

and we move as we were intended

I will sew

we will sew

don't forget

come with me

we will put our hands in the dirt together

We only rent the land.

There is only one, don't forget.

One beloved.

BE

Trapped against our nature

Kept away from the beauty of this world

Like it is far away

Locking the beauty of life

Waterfalls and trees that spiral into the sky

And float down the rivers

many are lost

I am a fool of convenience

Taught to constrict out life

Missing the beauty I look for fashion

Trying to recreate all that is natural

Looking to hold the power of thunder in my hand

I don’t know you mother earth

I am a stranger

It was my own choice

I hear the trees fall the look into the eyes of the mystic

I am all at once with you and not you

Please bring me close

I need you

Mother

The valleys are the curve of your hips

And I want to rise to your peaks

Placed in paper-mâché walls

And artificial suns

I approach you and want you to come closer

I have opened my heart and my eyes for the first time

We pile on top of each other

Detaching our selves from nature

Caged in concrete

I miss all of your simple complexities

How can I rejoice you?

I cover my body and cloak my heart

Pad my feet

I am loosing touch with you

Will you forgive me?

I am so callus

We mimic the volcanoes

And try to take all in out control

We are all apart from your beauty

I love you

I hate you

Kiss me

I am the passion

And jealous of your beauty

Maybe I am your mistress

Or I am only a prostitute

Selling my self

When you look at me what do you see?

I am tired of the cluster

Noise and pain

Yet I love it all

breaking my soul

Torn between worlds

One world that we make twain

Will you forgive us

We are not the keepers

We are the visitors

Mostly strangers

Loosing all in order to control the uncontrollable

I am sorry

Please show me your love

I might not see it

God open my heart

So I can feel your breath against my face

Take my robes to I can feel you majesty

Your peace let it be within me

Guide my heart

And let me rest

And live

I

Want to be no more

I

Want to be no more

Us

I want to be no more

I want to be

Want to

Be

God's Funeral






We carry the bodies
Stack them to the sky
I hope we get higher
I’m higher than high

Making a mountain
Collecting the bones
I’m loosing all feeling
Slaves work in droves

Draining the wine
Life’s intoxicating river
We are trying to get higher
From the blood from the sinners

In the name of man
We trample the poor
Pushed to the margins
Material whores

We publish the truth
And ignore all the lies
We are getting higher
Higher than High

Scoff at the intellect
Piss on your reason
Why are you thinking?
True acts of treason

I vomit crude in the forest
As I chop down the trees
I need a bonfire
To burn our disease

The sores are sickening
Only seen without wealth
I don’t see any body
I only need myself

Come to the valley
Climb up the mountain
No more bodies to bury
No more blood in the fountains

Carry my rifle
Bring the holy text
Only I can interpret
This political sex

Don’t worry its all normal
Don’t you be shy
It will all be history
His story not mine

The tree is uprooted
Buried upside down
This mountain of martyrs
With me as its crown

King of the earth
I will march into heaven
I buried my friends
To make my bread leaven

I stepped on the face
On the hearts
and the hands
Of the mothers
fathers and children
That once walked this land

I’m going to God
To glory and love
Don’t worry how I got there
Because I’m the only one

As I ascend to heaven
I questioned my way
But no one stays on track
Without others losing the way

I’m here at the gates
Looking onto the throne
But there are no angels
Ghosts, Jinn’s or stones

I cried for God
Sure he would appear
I cried again
Maybe she didn’t hear

In the fog of the clouds
And the mist of the sky
I thought it was raining
No just tears in my eyes

I looked down on the mountain
And what did I see
The face of God looking up at me

I killed the lamb and slaughtered
My sons, ending the lives of the ones that I loved

I killed God,
and all his prophets
I killed my neighbors
to gain new stock tips

I killed the others,
Whose looks I despised
I kill many mothers
With wandering eyes

I died a thousand times
And a thousand over
But with no God in heaven
And no angels on my shoulders

I was alone with my gold
And my lies and my book
Alone with my hands and the bloody brook

I was alone with my truth
And alone with my deeds
My murdered family
And my uprooted tree

Make this my last...

I
dance
without thinking
always moving
the essence
of passion
of care
love
and charisma

how I stumble
in thought

and careless
with words

lift me to the sky
without hesitation
I need peace
Still I move
hypnotized
I am truth
and the lie
maybe fools
are enticed by me
knowing that one day
they will become old
and I will move on
and stay the same

how frightening
and honest
there is only one promise

carry your will
sing for me
move for love
and I will play
on and on
change your steps
I will sing for you
and follow

a dance is peculiar
and is every thing artistic
but never controlled
or contained by art
in one breath

we are together
and apart

be swept up
carry me softly
I will lie on your shoulders
like a silk scarf
caught in the wind

beauty is in the eye
love is in the heart
truth is in the world
music is universal
finish this dance with me
for we have already begun
will you?

My Beloved

The rain fell on me like a flood

It entered my pores

Filled my eyes

Discouraged my reason

But I never stopped

thinking for you



The sun leaned on my neck

Pinched my eyes closed

Dared me to scream

But I made not a word

Of selfish pain

deep was my concentration



The wind pushed my center

Made every breath labor

Scattered my thoughts

But I never forgot

My direction

towards you



Everyday I wake

sometimes dazed

I lay on the ground

Looking up for you

My love will not sway

I am yours



I don’t need a book

Or any precious metal

Because of my love for you

I need no physical connection





I wonder when my companion

Will come

But I’m not in a hurry

I am patient

Tireless and restless

Somber and stern

Like a child

Wide eyes and open heart

Like a adult

Perceptive and cautious

You know my contradictions

And my intentions

This will never end

Time means nothing

with you my love

Blush

Do you remember the sound of my voice?
When I fell down, I saw you.
Drifting between dreams and songs
Revealing the truth as true as blue.
Eyes distorted by prescription reflectors,
I’m missing the time as perceptions preceptor,
Watch as I rise like mercury’s center
Heat pacifies all memories that enter
Tears made me blind to the light that I held
Time blurred the lines and my thoughts...what I felt
You were the answer to all of my needs
The push pull of wants will never take leave
I stagger, pause and change
My pace my thoughts my heart my brain
This space between the words
And before the print, taste this thought
From a once lost prince
I was true when I fell and called your name
It made me blush now in the same vein
Heart body and mind
Words can’t describe
My pain

of losing you

I am the water

I am the water
I want to release your thirst
Clean the dirt from your wounds
Soak your tired feet
Wash the days that surround you
Hold you while you swim
Carry you on my back
Feed the plants in your garden
Course through your valley
Massage the roof and lay you down to sleep
Travel over every inch of your body
I know your every curve
I am a part of you
Together we are Singular and multiple
Taking your form
We are
Bliss…..
Follow the moon
We Wax and wane
I am no mystery you can see through me
Roll me across your tongue
I know you are thirsty
I will satisfy you
I am the water
