Of Another

dream of me if you can
the clouds dancing together
the poking fun
run to where the sun was once king
the stream of ethereal hills
the clearest stream 
fall to your knees
it is the least
you can do

the coyote scream race their shadows
it is the way of night
you run to where your heart beats faster  faster yet
and then was done with me
bits and pieces memories 
of a redemption shunned
a broken prayer
written on the bones
of another

Purely Accidental

a swirl of barely cloud curls to wisp

air too blue for me to breath dissipates

there somewhere the sound of darkly racing wings

a galaxy that shares her faint fragrance

the purity of her heavens unrivaled

and for me
dying specks of light

extinguish before their time

before the cruel awareness

of my accidental

existence

Birth

let's go back to

the miraculous 

fleeting

nothingness                                      

of us

birth of touch

raining shimmer of drenched grass

clashing skies above the thunder

sparkling shreds of 

voiceless light

let the old worlds be kid

they've collided once enough

become one older world alone

let the dull hammer of these thoughts

beat out their ryhmeless time

there is no point to any of it

and what of the sweet whispers creatures

that slip from the dazzling spring

certainly there is more to this

than meets the heart

than meets the birth 

of  

her

first

wordless
breath
