Babel

You alphabetize the U
and misplace the Y for C.

It takes the R in re-direction
T for two is no perfection.

The B cannot
Nor will the A

(No longer can we P)
You can Double every U

And none of us will ever
C the Y as B-ing true.




Orion

A soft voice
Illuminated the sky
Look, you should
See Orion. So
I looked.

It's beautiful I said.

We began to talk
Hushed, calm, lullaby.
Our woolen scarf
Holding us in wonder

You're beautiful we said.

Discovering our Orion
Another way
Inside the looking
Far away
A gentle voice

Buttered up sweet night in reply.



'Observable Universe'

The screaming man at the
Meeting said the universe we see
Was "Just a mistake."

That it was hydrogen
he said, this proved it wrong, then he
chuckled inwardly.

When you see it this way
Time and space he said
Cannot be taken for granted.

Just existence. The oneness
The wholeness, the totality
That's granted. Energy is.

But then he screamed, "You jerk"
Tried to demonstrate the profanity
of the model of the universe he projected it out on me

The 60's came to my mind
When he was screaming jerk on
on Carson and talking then about the circle

Winding up the wheel eternally
Sliding into the womb.
He was such a biter though and smoking his weeds.

Measuring the universe at edges recycling
You should be attacking me
For this he said, question it.

But little gray lambs looked up
Flock in this
Age of reason where time and space defined.





Power roars
I am
Anger spews
It's time.



Gamer

Move your piece
My mind moves mine
My stance is laden
Your ready defeat is time.




Unkind

If you take the
last cupcake.

That actually is divine
(I'll offer of course)

It's completely fine.

Later I'll find a way
To make myself

Another one from clay.




Profaner

Inside the beauty
of a flower
Your heart
Is wrapped by
Knowledge
We want to know
Tomorrow.



Bore

In taking the floor
It became yours
(So I sat down)

Watching you take yourself in arms
On ballroom floor
For the waltz of one.



Withholding

Has its merits.
In the ration

Saving for the "future"
Heightening desire
Control of the day
Share your secrets inside self.

Then to
Channel this into resenting.
The "others"
Those not in on "the plan"
See them fail
To find
The rationality of
Your mind.

A pretty thing I learned
One day while saving this
Time slipped away

I'd rationed freedom
It left my day
Like love it was no game to play.



Dreams

Flash of insight in a night
It held for you a power in flight
You walked in a hall
Glided in a glen
Went to the source and back again.

It could be visions from the hunt
Allude to fears and inner worth
Allow you a stuff to paste
Down things that often
Seem to drown you
Hound you.

Movement in our daily strife
When asleep you strive to come to life.



Da Dub

If 2 hearts can
Beat as one
What's that thumping

Why carry the gun

Mine is thumping in its fears

An early beat
Your running feet

No way
to live with rhythmic
dis-rhythmic

Combined count
I'm out.



Dice

Get rolled
to number six

What thing in life has this ever fixed?

Even if you number seven

Would the win be a lush slice of heaven?

What if you got a double?

Brother you're still
In some real trouble.

Toss them high
In worldly brilliant iridescent sky.

But it looks like your life work
Crap shoot a lie?

Then rolling assuredly we die.


Thief

Ah the back story is
My tummy hurts
Washing every single piece of life

A raccoon with her dinner
Bandit to this
Picnic living.




Scared

This thing you are doing
Is frightening. Scary
It makes you so ugly
Defines you as mean
Mocking in such extreme
Without your path
Of goodness, at my expense, this laugh.

Blowing others to bits
To get them from behind
A guerrilla tactic
You practicing saboteur
Built a wall of distrust
You were offered
A kiss and you
Morphed it into this.


Pandora Held It

Given a key
To unlock the mind
You opened a heart
Hope fled mankind.


Not me, it's you.
