The missing guidance had instructions
For a man to act as if a woman’s vessel
Giving her primordial essence a body
For her to attach self identification to
Thereby ensuring both love’s resilience
In their attending to the heart of matter

I want this
Pain to stop
To shift it to gaining
As well as nourishing
And I realize now that
I need Heaven and Hell
In order to feel fulfilled
In expressimg everything
But change this to upgrade
In how issues are portrayed
Personally, I’d prefer
Sticking to metaphor
While our having
True love privately
Lean into my eyes
Give me the stars
A few moments to
Watch the night fall
Together in our arms
Falling deeper, she asked
What he remembered then
Before these current times –
For she’d had memory wiped
And wondered if they’d known
Each other in a past life / lives
And further if a hero’s complex
Developed from such separation
Not from need of good doing but
To reclaim what had been taken
If you’ve got ’em
Appreciate them
To have what is and what was
Always ours by mere birthright
“Pollinators visit our yard.”
“Today – I Garden!”
There’s a cat
On my mat
I’m happy
About that
“I want to go where nobody else will ever go.”
(From Sleep Token’s “Vore”)
Two gentlemen turkeys, one at the flank of the other, strolling slow and careful along the sidewalk strip under dappling leaf shadows fluxing morning sunlight.
What is purpose and why should it be sought?
We are taught to avoid it unless for selfish profit
But without our souls’ resonance we are lost
“I could go for this.”
“I want warm-baked cookies
And to water-view my garden”
The end made me laugh!
“Heavenly perfume fills the car from new procurements.”
“Rhythmically swinging legs on the back porch rocking chair in the morning’s baking heat sun to Rudy Ayoob’s Arabic Godfather song.”
“I realized that my phoenix color thematics have entered the kitchen, making normally abhored yellow counters brighten as light golden accent.”
“To see the three lined up, side-by-side, with a dog on each end eating a biscuit while the tiger is in the middle, playing with and drinking freshly-poured water.”
Mother
Lover
Wife
Confidant
Protector
Friend
Savior
Saved
Beloved
“For the last few nights, I’ve played one song over and over while working on getting my body able to dance again and gathering costume elements for a future event – as if I will be attending a glorious celebration ball.”
Oh to be
Held again
To be loved
And wanted
To be missed
If I even shift
Back pets and
Warm sunsets
Moon rises
Arcing falling
And the world
Forgetting
Because we are
Nowhere to be seen
Well do you have any idea
What you’d be getting in for
If I were free to be truely myself
Unafraid of critical judgement?
Like a puppy newly whelped I’d be
Stumbling about to gain steady feet
Chirping and flitting around the house
More gay than the proudest parakeet
Pouncing upon your sheets
Like a kitten of endless leaps
Then burrowing against skin
To breathe in the taste of sin
