Your radiance

 * * your radiance  * *
All Life's questions superflourous
Torments physical put aside
When your radiance bring
The Sun reborn in mortal form
My light and my dawn
A fresh day for all things
The simple beauty previously unseen
By your light is captured
Reborn in shades and colours
A most splendid and fine thing
To which I  say so your love
Bespoke for me alone
Crafted in our lives till now
So we should fit as easily
As spindle and thread
Be as companionable as
A fine cheese and deep red
All the world my plaything be
For all my world in complete in you
And if in loving stumble
Cause some fickle hurt to strike you
Then all my world is gone
An eclipse of all good I would see
If all my love was lost
Then as completely lost would be me.

Best of light

* best of light *
Frozen shards of light
Brittle in extreme
A thousand beams blinding
Rushing at speed of life
Short and long spectrum
Different angles taken
Seen through prism of Time
Our follies etched on glass
Dreams reflected better
In mirror of our own self
Those glancing rays
So quickly lost
Each splinter of light
A line of life
How swiftly passes.

Moving forward

*@+ moving forward +@*
Close your eyes and remove
Distortion of yesterdays
Take a deep and cleaning breath
Place your mind and body at ease
The hours spent will not be refunded
The deciets known now are done
Move as a shark might move
To be alive there cannot stagnation
Pity never won a true heart
Sadness only interesting
In the manner of its removal
Catch the wave of now
Forgo grieving for what had been
There is always better to be found
A higher truth to serve
A greater right to uphold
The greatest basic right of all
To live your life this once
There is no replay or pause
Each act committed laid down
By Time swiftly buried
Minutes eat at your mortal form
Hours sup eagerly
Days begin to strip
Weeks attack you boldly
Ravenous the years pillage
All you thought you are or were
Dissolving even memories
In deep acid of unforgiving time
So this Time which you are given
Use to full extent
Expand the joy inside your self
Preach joy to those you meet
Fuse all innocent beginnings
With timeliness flood of endings
You are here and deserve
The better and the best
Not starlight in your eyes
Supernova glow of passion's spirit
Go forth go forward go true
Leaving behinds barbs and shells of yesterday
By living today well
Planning future of love and joy
In your life there is only one
A race of a single figure
Live life well and you are the winner
Live life badly and is still your life true.

Romance cannot bloom

 + romance cannot bloom +
Romance cannot bloom
Near a running nose
The vicous snot slimily escaping
Congregating on brink of upper lip
Brushed aside with darting tongue
Oozing river of yellowbrown slick
An oil spill on your face
The nose a broken rig
Releasing pollutants all around
Then there are the sounds
Dainty sniffles like a dog
Or the hoarse deep grunting of a hog
As this dribbling sticky mass
This noxious nose explosion on a lass
Such an outpouring of unhealthiness
From the one you would call dear
To think you kissed those lips
Now dried and cracked and far too hot
On which breed the body's enemy
The rheumy red eyed stare
All those sounds of movement
Deep inside her chest
As if there is a reservoir of grot
Deep inside wanting to get out
An alien waiting to punch on out
She demands keep a bowl close at hand
Caught unexpectedly your truelove clears her throat
A sound not dissimilar to a camel
Clearing a troublesome icky cud
Emitted from the darling of your dreams
Who in infection become nightmare
This burning fevered incubus of phelgm
Dripping snorting grunting
Sneezing wheezing coughing
Sickly pale red eyes burning
Madam of contagion obnoxious
No romance you will find here
As she settles on your shoulder
And a kissing string of snot
Joins your neck to her swollen nose
This diseased monster complete
Who you chose to love
And now you must endure her snoring sleep.

Hesitation is waste

** hesitation is waste **
This dance of words is foolishness
Pretense we need converation
I read the feelings in your eyes
Can feel your simmering greed
We should leave right now
Press you against a wall
Smother face on your skin
Feel your teeth eager nip
Draw blood and love in shouting
Set aside the mundane things
Clear bench with sweeping arm
Set you atop and taste your love
Hot and rich and true
Hold you as you rise
Lift you forward more
Engulf your s*x upon my mouth
Suck and lick and consume
Whole world by our loving silenced
Gravity's natural laws put on hold
As we bend and lift and move possessed
Animals who in their joyous rutting
Make a symphony of prayer
Estatic be our shouts
Speaking in tongues of love
A fire burning through us both
Molten bodies meld as one
All is heat and pleasure
Growing lack of control
All boundaries fall or crossed
Together escapes from thoughts
Bodies race across the gap
Between the pleasure divinely set
And our earthly selves
As if electrocuted jump
Then collapse and expire
Burnt out happy sated shells.

Such a tortured soul

*+ such a tortured soul +*

Place me down and break my back
Set my body on fire
Torture with needles hot
Puncture nails through my eyes
Taunt me draw me quarter me
This is all I am
Take to me with blades and knives
Slice me limb from limb
Drag me weeping behind your car
Exhume my body and beat it
This is the world I accept
A place from which I dare not retreat
All these pains and breaks
Are common as a mongrel dog
I have lived and shall endure
These tasks set to break my body
Make me better and more pure

My soul is my very own to keep
This personally I shall torture
See what my spirit can endure
Keep awake when I should sleep
Send demons rampaging through my dreams
Allow myself no rest or ease
Relaxation to mind be forbidden
My silences will grow longer
Manners become savagely abrupt
Unleash stinging pain in my head
In anger and bitter bile spit
All the world a torture
Not a drop of love to sip
Parched exhausted wasted
In this desolation I forlronly sit.

Waking from australian dream

+ waking from australian dream +
Someone wound my guts in knots
Intestines tangled and twisted
Set a rock upon my chest
Compressed my head
Pressure cooker living
Escape valves all blocked up
A constant prssure building
Living beneath the thumb
Of constant obligation
To pay mortgage or fail
All the bills marching in
Credit card in the red
Not winning against the tide
Going under for the third time
No escape or relief in sight
Marooned in tortured comfortability
Of the Australian dream.

Marketday

 * marketday *
In fair streets busy
Vendors contest with aromas
Breakfasts bagettes baking
Fresh fish from Normandy
Sacks of fresh fruit and vegetables
Buckets of flowers blooming
The market alive
Stallholders announcing prices
Brisk barter chat of buyers
All the commerce for sale
On a Summer's morn
Sparrows dart for crumb
On Paris marketday.

LOST

 *+@+  LOST +@+**
Lost is the Art of
Aircraft disintergating in mid-air
Fog monosters horrific
Second tribes anatagnostic
Corporations non specific
Plots and plans and deceits
Layered and exhumed and planted
Every face a Janus
To the one before
A mirror to a society
Or a reflection fictional
On places never found
Even if the episodes
Sponsored by NSA
Make a popular show
Hunt Obama down
Present the alternatives
Paths myriad Time could take
Show good manipulated
Evil defeated regrowing
Cycle Homeric in scale
Modern in manufacture
Death being the end
Or new beginnings through
Reruns and flashbacks or flashforwards
Raganok in cinemascope
Lost is the Art of
The number of episodes matching
Months John F Kennedy was in office.

Seasonal losses of love

** seasonal losses of love ***

Lost love in warmer times
So different from lost love in Winter
The weather does not conspire with you
Rain and hail and cloud reflecting
Tragedy of your heart cut asunder
For beaches are not made for grieving
How can you properly lament
If you are sitting in a pool of sweat
Worrying if you may get sunburnt

Life barges on so enthusastically
In those warmer climes
All are busy at their many pursuits
Always out and about doing
Unwilling to pause and participate
In your tearful pitying introspection
So hard to claim true isolation
To set yourself completely apart
For into sunlight they call you
To participate anew in activities plentiful

The air is warm and fragrant
Even Nature is bountiful lush and full
Bees drone happily on summer breezes
Sporting events and festivals to distract
How can you encapsulate pitiful grief
In a tshirt drinking margaritas at an al fresco bar
Surrounded by summer's bright palate

One must eventfully surrender
All thoughts of love lost grieving
A grief which would have
Sustained you all Winter long
Thrown into trashcan of experience
Instead join in and drink Summer honey
Nimbly chase love and companionship afresh
Bright flitting hummingbird of Summer
Not a dour black croaking Winter raven.
