Sister Moon
She glows so brightly
So pure, round and white
Shedding light upon
Friends and enemies
Lovers and fighters
Fully unbiased
Remaining aloof
Coldly distant
But in her coldness
Is beauty and love
So Blue
So bright
So alive
So blue
sad
So cold
So pale
So blue
is
So distant
So removed
So blue
so
So moving
So expressive
So blue
blue
So hurt
So sad
So blue
So nice
Delightful
Irresistible
Alluring
Nubile
Nymph-like
Erotic
So sss….

The Book
I tried
to read
the book
but it
was closed
to me
no matter
how I tried
I could not
open it
to find the
joys the truth
the images
that lay inside
I could only
imagine what
experience
I was missing
The Cat Sat on the Mat
Sprawled
Across the
Fluffy white carpet
A small black
Cat
the chicken or the egg
Should
the content fit the form
or
the form fit the content
The cigarette
A wisp of smoke
arises from
the cigarette
left neglected
in the ashtray
slowly burning
The Ghetto of Love
A slave to love
Addicted to love
Forced into the emotional ghetto
By potent powers
Too forceful to
Deny or control
When these forces wane
The choice comes
Commitment
Or dissolution
Until a new situation
Creates new forces
The Prowler
Hovering out of sight
walking the hills
Searching a position
to see unseen
The Quest
Endlessly searching through all the old books
Attempting to find the question’s answer
The question that is in an unformed form
Searching for a clue a key to open doors
To expand to enlarge the boundaries
To attack and break down the barriers
Walls that separate the known from unknown
Unknowable from the easily found
Looking for what may have been overlooked
Diving delving into strange untouched realms
Places of fear hope love hate life and death
Tightrope Walker
Treading
the fine line
between
two terrors
balanced
opposing
evils
equally
painful
one for a lifetime
the other
Time Span
Past
Present
Future
One to regret
to remember with pain
One to endure
to lessen the pain
One to fear
to expect more pain
Yesterday
Today
Tomorrow
Waiting
Subdued light
flickering on
the upturned faces
Calm, patient
expectancy
all waiting for what
Sudden hush
indicating
event’s arrival
Waxen Beauty
Glistening white
on the pitted
rough surface
reflecting light
from the yellow
red blue flame
glowing orange
through the green walls
strange contrast
immense beauty
variety
as it burns
functional art
so complex yet
so simple
Well I don’t, not today anyway

What Is, What Isn’t?
Life is
Love is
Joy is
Bliss is
Lust is
Fear is
Hate is
Rage is
Pain is
Death is not
Where did it go?
Clutter
Bits and pieces
Scattered
Confusion
Disorientation
Carrying within
Something clear
Vital
Lost amongst
Peripheral
Unimportant
Signals
Willing Slave
You
because
you have such
a wonderful
and incredibly
sensuous and sexy
body to caress
have the power
to fully
control
me
