WE ALL BLEED

Blood covered hands

And blood covered hearts

Smearing the covers dark

Together we slip

In the redness of the world

As deep inside

Of you

I am

Together

With the earth

We all bleed

Crunching

And cracking

The sweat and semen

Dry and crack

Every time we lay back

And adjust ourselves

Deeper into this sand box

Of deepened awareness

Sex is a mystery

Love is a mission

Together with maps

And calipers, spyglasses

And leather pouches

We scour the earth

For the sign

Passion, hunter

Ambition, hunger

Splintered with hope

Scratching, leaning

Can’t keep this fire

Silent

As everything we touch

Becomes gold

Everything ever touched

Touched by God

Dripping thighs

Tucked away in your eyes

The force field you keep

Confuses my gauges

So flying blinded by light

Through the darkened sky

High above the clouds

Something pulls

Closer and closer

Reaching for the moon

Sometimes your hands

Reach past this room

And the distance is

Your breath

Every room in the house

Wreaks of you

And your clothes

And clips, and wraps and scents

Like a sidewalk

I litter myself with you

Making it only hours

At most

Until I’m back in your arms

In your chamber again

The only place I feel safe

Refilling and refueling

In mid air we dance

Trance like children

Planting the seeds

Of tomorrow in the dirt

Of today

Praying white chapels

Falling like red apples

To the floor together

We go with gravity

We stay so close

During these times

Just holding on tight

For reasons

We just can’t seem to grasp

We don’t need to

Understand this clasp

Something from a life before

The book of Destiny

The look of intensity

Some kind of cosmic karma

Playing this circle of completion

We meet again

My love

Possibly a second time

Around the globe

The universe needs this

Plot to unfold

For I am the receiver

And you are the giver

I am your heart-beat

You are my liver

Hand in hand

Time spans across land

So much had to happen

To both of us

For this to finally

Happen

To both of us

We drove so far

In so many separate scars

Landscapes of different jars

Through mortar and tar

We shattered and frayed

At the ends

Now so strong

We pull together

Every night in my eyes

I see you in every disguise

The woman from centuries ago

I found you again

Was it Florence or Greece

Romania or Nice

Where we once lived

And livestock in the night

Hid, under sycamores

When the October skies

Turned to Orange

We became something

Grander than the great Winter

For the next century to come

This love is ours

And nothing in the Universe

Can stop this

For I am not pulling

Nor pushing

Just my eyes open

I am accepting

For I am the receiver

And you are the giver

I am your heart-beat

You are my liver

Blood covered hands

And blood covered hearts

Smearing the covers dark

Together we slip

In the redness of the world

As deep inside

Of you

I am

Together

With the earth

We all bleed

AND THEN I SEE

And so you cast this spell

Over me

Or was it just a rainy night

That made

Everything seem right

I have so much faith in myself

And the feeling I get when I know

It’s right

Yet there’s that fear

Late at night

Creeping on a bike

That sometimes wants to

Stand in front of the light

Causing an angelic eclipse

Of reality and bliss

Confusing the way

The water falls to the ground

Watching the puddles

Hearing the sounds

I sit alone and walk

Through this month

I must remember this is still

About me

Always about my trust

In you

And faith

And the way home

Hard to not put so much

Weight on your shoulders so fast

I can view the history

And see that I often ran out of gas

Suppose it makes sense

To go easy on the pedal

Holding back in ways

Would rather just punch it

But that’s what I always do

And then it’s only in the kitchen

Where I only see you

Just sitting here alone

Typing away

Filling pages of books

No one seems to read

Healing myself

From my own self inflicted need

Of needing something

Someone

My mother told me today

To be careful not to smother you

How could she say something

So relevant and we never even

See each other

She knows me without seeing

Me I was born from her flesh

Her blood is of mine

Her mind must be like mine

At times such a mess

Oh mother I must confess

Sometimes I want to blame

This all on you

Been difficult not to smoke

So many years of catharsis

My last real vice

Finally the time to kick

Chewing so much gum

Seems to work for now

Still in the kitchen writing

Always

Pondering

Knowing

Something is coming

Knowing this faith

Is real

I make believe

My whole life

And then I see

CHILDREN WILL UNDERSTAND

Swirling my hands and arms

Through this inertia

Music to my ears

Pushing my mind

Into complete

Expansion

This mansion

Of everything

I have ever known

Just blown into purple

Radiant flames

And amazes me

In a light show in my mind

With eyes wide open

I see both sides

Walking down these subway stairs

So lost in your current

So lost in your eyes

Embrace me new world

Take me to new places

In time

How could there still be

Places I have yet to run

How could I find

Yet another corridor of space

In my mind

Waiting for my subway car to arrive

So far traveled

Dancing in another world

My chemical princess

Something our children will understand

I no longer ask

Now I demand your hand

So lost in your eyes

Last night

Falling through space

Time continuum

Like some falling angelic rhythm

Effervescent colors

Of jellyfish

And satin clouds

Clouding my arms

So safe

In this heat wave

With you

Of mazes

My animal

You are my zoo

The draft blows my scarf

Flirting with my face

Baby you are everywhere

In this place

And I am with you

Let us make love in this den

Take us to another level of Zen

The choir sings me away

Close my eyes

And sway

The subway takes me down

This tube

Of life and memories

Sprawling, crawling

Gasping for air

For your sweat

You’re everything true

Tortures me

With lust

Clawing at my cage

Raging

This battle of passion

Aimed at you

Let me eat from your curves

Lay your jawbone

Into my waistline

Become my heritage

Like cocktails

Of humanity

Zumanity

Illuminating

Lost in love hullicinating

A fistful of your hair

In my hand

I have returned to primal

My spirit grows

And I don’t know how far

I will expand

Now this is high frequency

This is the true hour

Our love is power

Dipping my hands in this current

We are creating

Such a powerful source of light

Of life

Of inspiration

This is the juice of the tree

The beat rocks me

The love I run to

Every night

You are the space I grow toward

Universal freedom

Inside and out

I no longer believe in time

Headphones blaring

While you just keep blowing my mind

Swirling my hands and arms

Through this inertia

Music to my ears

Pushing my mind

Into complete

Expansion

This mansion

Of everything

I have ever known

Just blown into purple

Radiant flames

And amazes me

In a light show in my mind

With eyes wide open

IGNORANT FALLING

Looking over at you

With the silhouette

Of a movie star

Sitting in the movie’s

With my 3-D star

Three weeks singing

So far

Been a goner since

The second you stepped

Out of that yellow

Flagged taxi-cab

You know what I love

About you and I

We just happened

Like burning flames in the sky

Explosions from nowhere

Evolution everywhere

And we just smooth scars

We can sit still

We can sit far

But no matter

What happens today

We just are

I woke up this morning

Realizing you were everywhere

The rains are here again

And you are the sky

The coffee in my mug

You are in my mud

Last night you asked

If you could be my guest

Dominican Republic, the best

Just the way you think alone

I think were in the zone

Baby and I want to fall

I have no parachute

No rip-cord

I hope you don’t mind

If I just eject the front door

Of my mind

Let it all decompress

Letting loose articles

To fly free

And escape the atmosphere

As my hair and jewelry

Just tug at the pressure

As we both step closer

To the edge

Smiling so ignorant

Falling so dumb

Halfway leaning

Out of this airplane

Door

So many thousands of

Feet in the air

THE SKY AND THE LAND

Taking us to that place

To watch souls disappear

Like you said

Something I needed you to see

A place to repent

And place to be free

The sweats

My sacred tented

Dome sleepless

And alone

But now it is you

Whose head I cradle

So rich a

Ladle full of cream

Pouring this love

Over the mountains

And hills, in my dreams

Swimming the darkness

Everything flies away

Just your hand in mine

As the sweat chases

These scars away

Running them across the street

Epidermis peel

This heat making

Us heal

From sickness

And strife

Replenishing

This delicate crystal

Glass of life

With thick

Pure warrior

Blue blood

I put on these red boxing gloves

And take another bow towards love

For I have not seen you for years

In fact with these new eyes

And these new ears

I have never seen you

Quite like this at all

Wasn’t it just the Fall

Where I was praying to be born

And now the first day of Winter

The longest night of the year

Stretching romantic shears

To toss and tumble

In these leaves

Rolling around these black seas

Of sheets and lips

Fingers

And hips

And touching

Your breathe

My neck, you jump

I call

Together we

Fall into the

Darkness

Blending our lines

So the future

We make our own colors

Blurring our clothes

Let the things

That don’t work between

Us slide off the wing

Of the plane

This newest game plan

The sky and the land

I have waited for this night

Target practice for years

Finally an equal in sight

And sound

Loving you on the ground

Rolling around in bed

Or was it the living room

Or the car

Suddenly the ceilings ajar-

Take it slow baby

For I have no where to rush

Fingers in your mouth

To hush you

Waking in and out

Of consciousness

Of dreamscapes

And movie scenes

Falling into your neck line

The glass of water

On the nightstand

Floats in the air

Rolling over to Colorado

The map just changes

Shapes at my feet

Cities below my back

Alarm clock melting

As we wake up on the ceiling

Feet hanging over the door

Lamp shades, ceiling trim

The bed down on the ground

I think were floating in some space

You warm hands on my back

The smell of your hair

Puts me back under

Where I want to be

As my world just spins

Like some slow circus wheel

In one big tumble

Upside down

DEEP UNDER THE SEA

Walking again-
Seems like we just keep
Holding and talking
Eyes and hands like stone
Somehow
Somewhere alone
Some pitchfork in the road
Aimed us together
Someone from above
Sent us this weather
And so together again
When the sky turned to black
You came back
To breath
To love
Teaching me now

In the physical form
The most beautiful thing
I might have just ever seen
Eyes like the Grand Canyon
Delicate ears
Perfect posture
Perfect sheen
Dancing like a queen
We walk for hours yet
Never seem to get far
Too far from our zone
Domestic Cancer
Keeping protected
We stay close to home

My feet dance and my heart
Beats, but its just my eyes
That meet
Yours and truly
I would do anything
In this moment

There’s a fire burning inside
That I just don’t care
About running-
Or hiding-
Or acting or retracting
I just want to make a shelter
On the hill
And keep you safe tonight
I’ll light the fire
And keep the light
Just teach me how to love again

Show me how
Shine even brighter
Burning eyes like a fighter
And my love I challenge
You so
I take your hand slow
And whisper words to myself
That you are just not ready
To hear yet

Watching your pig tails
At your side
I am trying so dam hard
Not to look down at your thighs
But like a garbage disposal
Darling I want to destroy you
In the most loving way
Moving furniture around
The room
In the distance I can hear the boom
Of you and I creating
Something powerful
Some enigma of love
An entire ocean of white doves
Floating for the sunrise

While it's deep under the sea

We are headed

For everything that is mine
I ask for no mercy this time
For there has never been something
Quite like this
For I have never been as centered as
I am today
I am okay
I am willing
And ready
And loving
And steady

You have become my equal
And it is you that you see in me
Nothing else can free me
As does your loving key
So show no mercy for me
Even when I’m down on my knees

For nothing can hurt us
Not another 1000 nights alone
Even as the humming gets louder
This vibration pulls
Just take my hand little one
Looking straight into you
As we just keep swimming
Through this force field

I WAS INVISIBLE

Higher frequency all day

Higher frequently

There is no other way

To lift myself out of bed

Just to hit my knees

I plead with thanksgiving

And gratitude

This plentitude of opportunities

Overwhelms me when I think

Of everything at once

So it is in prayer

That I just see you

Getting ready mentally

To let you into this home

The cobwebs have overgrown

And now I must make the changes

My father once told me of

The way a woman checks the nest

Leaves her scent

Where she stops to rest

For the night

Oh my tap water

I worry

Through December there is no hurry

For this is my time of the year

I attract what I need

And only that may stay

Circling like a cyclone

My whole world

I built alone

With you god

Revving like an engine

Strong centered and focused

Still alone jumping like

A thousand locusts

I devour the future

Loving the suture’s of life

And my scars, so many lessons

Everything I once loved

Has brought me forward

Making the pages I am today

Freeing the man I appear

Before your eyes

Like a prayer I was invisible

Then the rains came

And you fell from the sky

Through my fingers

And through my eyes

Pushing forward this inertia

Of faith and love

No need to beg, borrow

Or steal

For this life is my meal

And I eat so well

My sister told me yesterday

That I have saved enough

Young girls

It’s time for teacher-teacher

So preacher-preacher

Send me a teacher

Someone I can spill this goblet

Of energy with

Someone to slip in

This abundance

A strong god centered woman

I can take my perfect circle

And make a perfect circle

For I am whole, perfect and complete

On my own

But boy we sure do

Smash together well

Like well done mash potato’s

I want to gum drop

Your little hand in mine

Speed off, get lost in time

Lets take a long flight

Take a long swim

Lets jump some continents

The whole world to play

Sit together on the mountain

And just pray

My ego wants to talk

But with love I say shush

For no reason to push

For I am not in control

I surrender my self with

With adaptability

And flexibility to reveal

As the snow falls in Idaho

Just know that it falls in

My mind as well

And only time

She can always tell

This plentitude of opportunities

Overwhelms me when I think

Of everything at once

So it is in prayer

That I just see you
