_RAINBOW WEATHER

it is rainbow weather
a time of magicians
wizards
breathing fire
dancing on earthly stars
listen
listen to the words you speak
and how they change the world
echoing angels to the universe
it is rainbow weather and
it is time to dance



TO BE

how is it
to be
heat of the sun
glistening on skin
tingling whisper
of breeze through toes
acrid smoke
caught in my throat
gritty eyes tired
wounded limbs resting
wafts of green
rippling upriver
faraway
sounds of traffic
drowned
by calling crows

reflections on water
briefly glimpse a parallel world
hypnotic ripples
linear clouds give way
underworld
where air is an empty bubble
spiraling to the heavens
unclaimed, unnoticed
a life of murky depths
wrapped in mermaids’ tresses
wrestling
with flash of silver belly
and dragonfly wing
_BEAUTY OF LOVE

but what of the beauty of love
of the heart opening in welcome to embrace another
of the roar of life as it comes tumbling in
of the awakening of the soul above dreary routine

shall we forsake it for comfort
for uninspired answers to unasked questions
for the insipid hand of familiar terrain
for a cuckold to quiet desperation

but what of the beauty of love
of the bloody carcass
of the entrails of old haunts
of the metaphysics of pain

shall we forsake it for suffering
for the convenience of escape
for faith in another chance
for altruism in deceit

but what of the beauty of love
of reading secrets in the stars
of taking wine with the earth
of smelling the fragrance of my own body
of stilling the echoes of my own heart
