Please never cower
Flight is just to capture your

Has it been said to me
Before
Through some spirit
Holy or Otherwise
I do not recall
Just that it occurred to me
Or came to me
Just this moment
Through some spirit
Holy for Certain
That
Any
Good in me
Is
Christ in me
In Hours
Strangest sunrise
Melon colored
Preceded by a promise
From the choir
Preceded by the bad, bad Dream
Melancholy
All for only me
That I'd come higher
eclipsed: a haiku
Wishing beyond hope
The back of my soul be burned
With all that you'd said
Time-Life Continuum
Come with me I'm
One of those kind
I won't mind
If you need
To float a bit I'll
Be with you should you
Dawdle
I know these parts
Each side of my heart
Resolutely resolved
To remain uncured and
To come with you
Parking Lot: A Haiku
We kept holding hands
I clinging and you dragging
One day we let go
Forehead
Hallowed. Unhallowed.
Echoes unheard.
All the chasing. All the fleeing.
Hearts unmoved.
Under this roof. Within these hearts.
Lives entwined.
Careful words. Cherish the skin.
Beings enthralled.
Screen
The other side of a window
There must be smoke
Smell of it!
Midnight, late night smoke
Biding its time
Considering hiding the fire
Not thinking we keep careful watch
Will it expect
Our reach through the screen
Our grasp, when we rip out its heart?
On You: A Haiku
Unheard and angry
Misunderstood and tuned out
Nothingness finds you
a fortiori
Why the grown hawk would struggle on
The wind
I cannot know
I've seen it, though
And desiring
To help things along for regalness sake
I reached up on high
In prayer
To see burden lifted, compass-mark found
