The whole world
Spins somewhere
But here
Its soft hum
Is nothing
Like this
Such curved heights
It knows not
Of how
Let my rain
Rinse clean now
War paint

Face the cold for me
Take the risk for me
More than promise you will find
I will warm you to the bone
And reward you with a home
of your youth
What colors
What flowers
What oaths
What wings in hearts and on eagles
What souls
What yeas
What nays
What presence of light and of shadow
The Farm
I’ll settle it seems
For any reverberation
That I’d believe again
In my still hoping hand
Knowing the years must grant
The gentle kindness and fun
I’d once claimed as my faith
twain
As
beautiful
crazy
does
evermore
feel,
guess
how
I
just
know
love
means
nicely
opening
people’s
quirks
reading
someone’s
thoughts
under
very
wild
Xanadu
“You”
zen?
Guess.
Knew
Explain again
How I make much
Of you
Traveling
Wandering
Shape-Shifter
I knew
Tell it aloud
How you grew
This thing up
Beautiful
Crazy
Fragile teacup
cinderella
Fall away
All the ways
They think
You think
They think
Of you
Stand down
The put-down
Of lies from without
Lying within
Minds lying
To you
School
I think The Earth is moving
It’s not where I Left It
When in my Second-Story, Circus-Red-And-White-Striped childhood bedroom
I Knew never
Would wrongs be deemed Right
Should the voiceless be Silenced
Could I stay and just play School
Did you don Your cape then too
Care
Not as the stars
Collapse but explode
Splayed out
And beauty, protection, wishes
Be all the more
As bird in hand
If there be weeping
It is as lungs
Take in stardust
Mute
Why
So to spend a moment more
Without rolled up sleeves
Starving the fever of me
Indulging the ever empty
There lies the answer
Evoking so much
Here stays the question
I’m warned to not ask
Why
