Coptic

It was building a legacy
Perhaps my own testament
Some spiritual outpouring
Surface an upbringing
A sanctification of holy light
Unblindfolded by the night
Awakened in a world of our own
Creation created by the Creator
Who are we then but buried
In the beauty of all facets
Yielding beneath my robes
Bearing it all for something
But the context is only spiritual
Words written in books
Hymns filled with resound
A being couldn’t be more awake
And equally fatigued at the
Same time if only one less
Angel in heaven and what then
Lashing a demon out from
Within uncertain dangerous love
Earthbound as we were
Before attending our earlier
Time in the space from which
We arrived at before we
Existed to know what is where
Staring at a star pondering
Why not there?

Cōnstellātiō

I’m running what feels like
A big constellation
Over here keeping track
Of every part of my heart
Every element every star
Familiar with every point
Knowing where to go
I feel the location and sense of
All of the dots I’m connecting
Soul map self map major and minor
In the summation of my whole
All the working lines
Forming a picture pattern
Of my life particles assigned
Parts I have kept
Parts I’ve let go
Where I’ve set things down
Where I’ve strung things up
Asterisms that define
My existence as a whole
Hanging in the upper left corner
Of every day and time
Orienting the clusters
Of my home in the reflection
Of my eyes
Meaningful fragments
In the sky of my mind
In the celestial sphere
That combines
A set of stars a set of parts
For you to look upon
To observe them
And to guide if you look up
To the sky through the North Sea
Mountain wide
Head heart and divide

Hue and Cry

I wail out to the pain
Of what we could’ve been
Some other mesmerizing forecast
Than the doubt we ended up as
Goodbyes are hindered
By the inability of our hellos
And echos of nothing are
Screaming in the absence
Of a love that dreamed of
Being born before the end of
Every future tomorrow that
Hangs waning in the distant sky
Like an unattainable star

No Rush

Refute my need to burn
An eternal flame
Blue violet light rekindles
Omnipotent embers
Infinite steps between
Starlit pathways in
An ocean of black
Laid back eyes to the sky
Gleaning peace of mind
Dreaming of historic love
The ancients cradle
My face hold my head
An opening above
A pillow for love
No rush
