(Train of thought......)


Singing strings slip through thematic theory.
Tracks and bends
jumps and thrusts
Dusts of translucent time settles 
Showing signs of
Home hung hats.  
Always on the train
To somewhere. 
Thought to Thought 
to 
heart sound 
and
hunger pangs 
for 
resolution and respite in a 
resounding applause to
stand up for valor and 
feathers in hats, polo clubs and foxes. 
                                                           Exits stage left and balcony desperations
                                         woven into my thread 
                                    my fibers 
                           my being.          Fantastical fairy-teller gaze 
into your crystal ball and 
run away with me. 
Flee and fly to light up the sky. 
Climb lighthouses and weather storms. 
Paint me pretty colors to 
guide your way back 
                                                                                                                              when tossed to the sea.

Ritual // Scavenge


Satie and surf. It's time to return to the water.


In my less than ritualistic life it's nice not to think about anything but the water. Yet as soothing it's surface tension seems, under its veil is just as much activity as under my own. Life, death, scavenger. Feed from the particles that surround us, bleak lights in the dark, sparks of emotion and a generic cooperative spirit. But on the surface the in and out of the waterline ever moving, changing, eroding.

Let's erode it to the bone.


And it's as though our Spring may never come, and when Summer hears of this perhaps She will shy away too? The boats are docked and wrapped, the marinas lifeless as the enveloping grey decays movement, we live suspended in our nuclear winter. 


Contrite and obnoxious Winter halts all rebirth cycles-the buds are too shy to raise their sleepy little leaflets to the sky, and the does search for life within their womb.


I search for reassurance in these symbols of isochronality and none exist - retreat to the water, where at least her voice is there lulling the rest of the world onward.
