Living to the Point of Tears

There is a cylindrical spell that decides

when the buds of your tears will be sent

out into existence for every cell of your life

to stand in witness

Trembling in truth

in exhilaration

for stepping outside the known

a leap

carries you as sheer inspiration

anything born in the magic of pure potentiality

The rain has started falling 

For us

It is saying to me

You have been too long

From home

You have been too long

Apart

You have been too long

Sweet dreaming divine

You have been too long from home

You are the one

The forgotten will all be remembered on this eve

I am living on an island of my own

Creation

Sensations and manifestations of my own

I am afraid of the tide and the waves

on my shore

They'll smother me and drag me away

And I'll never be found again

I know all about you

Confounded and Obtuse

I'm on to you

I think you know

Sickened by the very movement you make to grow

Sickened by the very movement you make to eat

Sickened by the very movement you make to move

Sickened by the very movement you make to live.

09     In  A  Perfect  World....

I  won the Noble prize last night

while Einstein chatted bout his speed of light

and Winston Churchill walked  his dog

while  Sherlock Holmes detected fog.

and i would follow her through the thickest fog

until i could see her no longer

at which point i would stop

and form her shape in the clouds of mist

and if i ever left her side

the only way would be the result of banishment

the pain would be so great

I hate poems about water.

Not just any water

Because a little rain in a poem is fine.

But big masses of never ending water

Wave on top of wave

Cast away wretched objects failing purpose

For what good are eyes that fail to see?

Bag the stone and beat it bloody flat-

For what good is a heart that fails to beat beat beat?

Dreams II. Night beginning 30 June 10

Oh Wicked wicked ghostly dreams

Decaying rooms and ghostly screams

Memories and things unknown

Flow through dreaming night so slow

An old lady did I see?

Did I hear her calling me?

In a night within a night
