Eternal Friend

Eternal Friend

Turn back my pages.
My scripture, and hallmarks
Addressed the dark, carress each part.
Each folly, fiction, benedictions split.
Peered through the keyhole, rose to occasion
Downgraded, upgraded, designed, created
Is it the Matrix? I think not, lets skip scenes
Near the back of the film, we find its a daydream
We walked down these cracked roads
Caught up in the same climb
Denoted the noise, captivated by starshine
The sunburst, the skyline
A lone dove that watched us
Guiding each stream to the crest,
Of ocean's cusp...

Sent from beyond, like words from an angel
Gifts to rearrange you, with danger to steer through
While time slips through sleeves trying to destroy an image
You redefine many by strength of resilliance
I'm still reminiscing, remember such brilliance
Its tucked like a sword in the bosom of limit
The ozone, it shatters.
In shapes, shards, and colors
Both evoking wonder, and summoning studders

Sharing a smoke under leaves of a peach tree
What is a lie, while honesty flies free?
When doubt dissapears, found unlatched by a turnkey
Where is loneliness when you swim out to meet me?
While breezes blow glades, and ripple green grasses
While fire burns praries and rougue flame ammases
Where are we found when there's no one to ask this
Simmering sweetly, like yams with molasses

Nothing Left to Burn

The fire leaves no stain, no scar, no morsel.
Jump into the hearth and endure the unaffordable.
The portals blue, the brightest blaze
Will rise like tales of renegades.
It births brilliance that comes in waves.
For days and days in myriad ways.

Deep into the mirror gaze..
What is it you hold and wish
One chance may be all you get
Make the most of what exists
For what cannot, it must be burned
Your fabrications well deserved
To fuel this most savored blaze
Like boneless wings properly glazed

Mellowed out like holy smoke
Stare and gasp but don't you choke
Its possible your time is done
The flame it bellows like the sun
Traceless fire, unending heat
In this pyre take your seat
And as time boils to an end
The coal consumed, the embers spent
The carbon of your souls canvas
Will cast away after lament

You'll feel lighter, fresher too
Infused with a most daring fuel
The dross of folly felt no more
You may spread your wings to soar

You want an end to all the pain
The sky is yours without a plane
The answers here within these lines
And remains till twilight of time

Dont let it be cause of concern
And flounder in a man made maze
For when theres nothing left to burn
You must set yourself ablaze

Inward Philosophy

Inward Philosophy

Be drawn to the Philosophy that brings you inward
Within and without
Without and within
We walk on the bridge, teetering on a dream
I fear most will ask "what do you mean?"

You've got to receed! You've gone out too far
Trust in the facts of who we say you are
I've treaded too far, been taken from shores
There are yet horizons that must be explored

I'm a traveler
I'm a mouse, I'm a key
An oddball, a damp log, a darn rarity
I'm a home in the woods
I'm an overturned plea
Always climbing the ranks of inward philosophy

Join me for tea
We can finesse new angles
Spit out the demons, and speak with our angels
I've spoken enough, so quiet I'll be
Dreaming in depth of inward philosophy

NoBoDy

Nobody can arrest me

Detest or suppress me

Fill me with venom, or leaflets of envy

Nobody can control me

Alarm or do harm, see?

I am what I've searched for

Don't bring up the old me

The hold never fold me

Steamrolling, free falling

The clasp drops from ink pen

The noise rises.. "BALLIN'"

No Hitler, No Stalin

No duel-fisted Tyrant

I rant stances irate

Through hooks that're vibrant

Consumed in my study, I rise to a vantage

Where I comprehend the laced lines of these stanzas

No Jerry, no Kramer, no no George Castanza

This poem sets my soul free, unleashed and advantaged
