noted...

yield
the gates have opened
to let in the rushing tide
and I fill the sky

at last
purple cuts clear blue
briefly, before mountains melt
twilight frees colour

to stop...

hush
I had forgotten
the noise of living quickly drowns
soft velvet whispers

my own...

music
no, make no mistake
in a room full of quiet
I dance for myself
.............................................

that quiet is everywhere I go
whoever I'm with, whatever I'm doing
it slides my eyes closed and my mind open
I can hear it, I can feel it...so I dance
and watching eyes fade away

................................................

crowd
the wave starts again
voices rising and falling
smooth currents of words

Sunday, June 5, 2011

a thin...

cord
faster than these words
I run ahead of myself
ground me, hold me down

Friday, June 3, 2011

not out of...

range
I become lighter
with each person that finds me
effervescent joy
........................................................
more to come on this train of thought
until I get it right

for the moment...

anchor?
I have lost the ground
to drift in a fog of words
untethered ache

Tuesday, May 31, 2011

slow breath...

ease
a gentle morning
sunlight slowly seducing
whisper me awake

Saturday, May 28, 2011

life flow...

rojo
a day leaves the sky
and scrapes across the mountains
they bleed at my feet
...............................................................
I was watching a sunset turn to twilight
the dwindling light picked out the rocks red veins
and the mountains glowed

Friday, May 27, 2011

out my door...

sear
stars slip through the night
burning trails in the darkness
like blood through my veins

Sunday, May 22, 2011

all sides...

disappear
in roiling crowds
I slide into still quiet
to contradictions
...............................
shoulder-to-shoulder, inhale to exhale crush
life sounds and words all around me
to the desert quiet pause
slow deep long breaths
from the ground
beneath me

from the weekend...

pulse
needed taste of life
sound vibrating through my skin
to shake myself free
.....................................................

becoming electrically charged
with every person I meet
crackling, expanding
flashing with light
reaching places
I never knew
existed,
yes...

Sunday, May 8, 2011

such is life...

mutual
like a magnet pulls
taut, vibrating resistance
your eyes a slow dance

Thursday, May 5, 2011

endlessly...

expanding
like a storm building
growing larger every day
the sky filled deeply

Thursday, April 28, 2011

shaking my head...

moved
all with a purpose
people that fill out my life
I am amazed

Tuesday, April 26, 2011

summary...

sleepless
awake in the sun
air vibrating on my skin
melt into the day

eyes
yes, I remember
pouring slowly over me
words like warm honey

......................................

still so much to say
what am I creating here?

Tuesday, April 19, 2011

chance meeting...

yes
I see inside you
the calm within the chaos
concentrated life

Monday, April 18, 2011

tonight...

blood
quiet enters me
until stars run through my veins
the moon on my tongue

Saturday, April 16, 2011

scattered images...

to see
the life in those eyes!
my blue windows thrown open
breathe in to breathe out

Thursday, April 14, 2011

Thursday...

opened
brought into my world
an unexpected kindness
quickly breaks my heart

Wednesday, April 13, 2011

for a moment...

silence
to whisper, hold me
deeply in quiet places
music on my skin
