Raven

Raven For so long For far too long I have dwelt amongst images Ghosts Imaginations of my own making Without a voice Without another opinion And we all got along just fine But after all these years I see this wine Has been poisoned with the art of sorcery A deep magic has consumed my…

In the Beginning

In the Beginning If one is supposed to write what’s inside Then how does one write emptiness? How does one write vacuous? How do you write nothing and void? – It seems that is what is always at the beginning – The greatest power hovering, hovering Humming, singing Music is always in the midst it…

Life Signs

This photo It reminds me of our now Dark Clouds Leafless trees BUT Blooms Color Life Life is coming Nothing can stop it I see the signs – I see the signs of hope above – kdc 5/17/20

Figure 8’s

Figure 8’s I wish I could write something Anything Anything to make a difference Anything to lighten the load But nothing I do really matters Nothing I say changes anything It’s not words that transform our lives It’s love And I’m fresh out of that There was a rush on it during the pandemic The…

Quantum Leap

Quantum Leap What’s the universe expanding into? When I go to its edges Climb out a window  Open a door  What will I step into? What’s this all for? Where will I be? Who will I see? – Will time be there? Gravity?  Stillness? Or rowdy celebration? – What’s the universe expanding into? What is…

Distill

Distill Is there a place in the garden Where I can walk with God Is there a place where He tends Where the weeds and overgrowth Do not choke out the life Or is this survival of the fittest Simply the way it’s to be? – Because the weeds and the overgrowth are life They…

Embrace I’ve spent my entire life Trying to be like someone else Trying to get the attention The applause Of all who were in the room But all those people went their own way The room is empty now So silent So quiet And here I am alone With a person I don’t even know…

Pandemic

Pandemic I’m in the midst of a storm called pandemic About to crash on the haystacks of disaster Again The third time is not a charm It’s a humiliating punch to the gut I try not to be mad at God Yet those promises I’ve heard all of my life Are ringing hollow in my…

The Short (completed)

The Short (completed) Some want to give me an answer  Some wish to Tell me what’s so But I’d rather live in the present The place of “I really don’t know” – This place is where I can go higher This place is where I am just free This place is where I live from…

Perspective

Perspective For so long I’ve thought truth Is what is right, not what is wrong I’m beginning to discover there are many, many levels Your truth is often what you see What you only want to see Yet real truth goes much further beyond that Much deeper than that Much further out and about An…

March 1

March 1 It’s happening There’s a movement in the winds Change is once again Making its mark on the universe – Love is in motion About to raise a commotion Within the sleeping chambers of the dead This takes movement instead Of sitting around chatting about ideas – I feel it happening A new chill…

The Point

The Point I don’t want to read anymore I don’t want to think I don’t want to be told what to do Where to go, what to say, what to drink – I don’t want to pray like you anymore God already knows what I need I don’t want to hear anymore The difference between…
