I love that he answered the call
Hung up a shingle, of sorts
And waits bold in the Capitol street-front picture window at 8:52am
To tell us it’s never too late
But it’s time
ok birds: a haiku
sweet and willing wings
the babiest bird I seek
to rest my tired head
Happy
I know you’re wrapped in bedhead
Blue
That I’ll never get my blanket
Back
That you don’t own a funny
Bicycle
That a fast one, you are
But
I know I’m happy I never left you
Bionic
You’ll hear my name for you
Six Million words -each more true
I’ll wear out the L’s, for L words make me laugh
I’ll wield a skilled S as a sword or a staff
When I’ve tired of speaking, comes then Z, or close by
When all’s said and done, a new language have I
Stay softly: a haiku
i feel you don’t need
to touch my voice anymore
i’ll stay softly here
choice
The oneness
Clinging to your shadow
An imperfect shade of orange
With darting eyes that you deny
Until you can no more
You open wide the door
And
Then you cry
Own Time
To know my sinew
To trust my heart
To love my clear green eyes
The finest treasures, these I will give
So my friend won’t get lost
Shifting Glass: A Haiku
None ebony plan
Do you have for where I ache
Sing me then to sleep
Actual Expedition
Would you ever spend
A silent day
A quiet day, where we only look, not speak
Where all that we see
Could have its way
And any way, I prefer you to people, I think
Dustless Dirt Road
Somewhere a polished garnet -an anchor- has dropped
And it is dark and I cannot find it to lift it to continue on
If Any have known of these things then let Them too know this
It is as I have said: I love you for all of these lifetimes I’m given
Harken back to today and I wish
I wish you would stand, for I am leaving the table
I wish you would find me at my secret spot and whisper to me the secret joke on Earth that it is
I wish you would tell me I’m pretty to my eyes
I wish you would bring me all the flowers and I don’t care if they’re cut or holding tight to their roots and will muddy my hands
I wish after all this time you would not need a condition in order
In order to say my name
For all of This Life I’ve wished but I do no longer wish
For what you do not know or see or want or would want to know or see
Tomorrow, with daylight, my Rock and Tether I will find and hoist and I will trust
I will trust you to tell Them I love Them and the way They love you
