Crescent Moon

I don’t know when I lost you
When I lost myself

Beneath the full lit skies
Bathed by clear night scars

I don’t know when you lost me
When we lost ourselves




I post this for those of you still lost
for only yesterday
I appear to have found myself

Je t’aime

There were good times
Excited by expectation
Tilt at the thrill of the chase
Slick and grace
Race for the silk, and for the lace

Then there were better times
Desirous and deliverance
Spilt over the taste
Lose the pace
Dare to mention, misplace

There was exultation
Screamed out loud sensation
Christ don't stop, don’t stop, don’t stop
Love’s sounds of lust
Throb of lead guitar, strum of double bass

Steam Gallery

Electric blue
Surf on through
Singles night reflected
Circumspect introspected
Electric blue
Shine on through

Never seen your light before
Transmitted at the shore
Winters night
Transparent sight
Never seen you look so bright
Before

Eclectic hue
Dancing shoe
Painter from the peak
Horizons you seek
Shine on through
You eclectic blue

Six Four Six

Taw head
River Erme
Cascades of ritual
Sacrificial passages
Swirling ponds cold water
Cold as ice

River, rill, rivulet
Cascade of ritual
Sacrificial
Passages

Streams of consciousness
Trout and stickleback
Splash about
Games
Games by the river
By the streams of consciousness

Clear Water

Bhagavad Gita
As it is, as it ever was
Behind Proust
& Evelyn Waugh
Pennies from Heaven
From five to eleven
Too many coincidences
My seven senses tell me
Remonstrate and castigate
Harden up the will
Forge some strata
Put some clear water
Between you and you
