I think about the other side
Of this consciousness
What it means to think
About what is being
Thought about
To tired to write the words
Lawnmower over my head
Blades through the grass
Of my existence
Try to make sense of
Senselessness
Wishing for an easier
Moment to remember
How to collect signs
No color so much color
Symbolically you know?
Tired of the phone
Get up go to bed
Do it all over again
One or the other
Never both
But I always want
Both

He came home to their fun
With nothing left in the barracks for me
The counter was empty a mess of
Impossible promises and vacant
Connections for me to pick up
On the floor after we closed the
Door behind us no father to bear
Just the two of them bonding as usual
He couldn’t keep up with their
Banter or whatever was the spark
That ignited between them that was
Hard to describe in words
Wanting to join in he found himself
Pushing for another way
Illegal or other wise to play catch-up
But there wasn’t any just
The evidence of a time where
It was easier to get the things
One would need to throw
That kind of a Mister Irresponsible party
No more of that now just a clean
Collar and whatever will be
Left in the trappings of tomorrow
Dark circles worn eyes what
Drunkard goodbyes could
Only relate to if but only
To have one more hip hip hooray
Sometime in winter

Orphic night of magic
Impervious strength
Twisted excellence
An inner coil
Wound tightly to hold
A core suspended
Dangling from my heart
Stand on bricks
All these insides up
Corybantic emotions that
Leave me always wanting
Wild frenzied unrestrained
Feelings to come up
To the surface at the top
Hold my hands warm
Delicious future waiting
For us to embrace
Is it too romantic
Thinking in twos?
Are we thinking in twos?
Or am I the only one dreaming
In doubles? Psychic eye~
I have seen double
Before you
With you &
After you…

Try to remain sparkly
In a darkening world
Head is spinning keeping
Up with the ridiculousness
Of it all separate worlds
Put a wall there between
The worlds that make you
Want to be something
Do something with yourself
You lazy good for nothing
And the world that says
You are everything already
You don’t need to try
To become something
You are already everything
That is truly enough
Let go floating out
Into the atmosphere
Lasso the ozone of
Leaving our legendary
Marks behind
Just a few more steps
Before you pass the test
Complete the rest
Which is nothing
Made into something
Also possible by
Stacking rocks

Somewhere in the
Zeitgeist of our lives
In the time and place
That we both arrived
You made a path
Through the sea of my heart
Two spiders became one
Chewing and gnawing
At the right leg
Fuzzy light engulfs both of us
As if one barely makes it
Through the light and the other joins
Warm yellow glows a different form
Entirely altogether altered
And reborn
Electric aura transforms
Into our metaphysical positions
How many spaces?
How many lines!
Things in my hands feel smaller
Things on the earth feel taller
Gift of a voice recording
Some years ago
{That never got erased}
There’s no AI for that
Do you think requesting another
Would make a difference?
A perfect morning
A blazer of a day
Bird on my shoulder
Monkey on my back
Simple text is better than
Total exclusion
No doubt about that
I wonder what it will cost
In the long distance

Does it feel like you’re missing something
She wanted me to take all the bad
But she didn’t want to give me
All of the good it’s somewhat daunting
The amount of time it takes to
Process the truth and the impact of
Our worlds colliding also the absence
Sometimes it feels like a blessing
Other times it feels like punishment
But to couple you up in a blizzard
Where the two of you were off
Making love without any concern
For my well being suddenly
Knocks the ball out of the park
As if the almost caring enough factor
Should satisfy the depth
Of how far I was willing to go
Each day a new bubble surfaces
Like I’m coming up for air behind them
Slowly as each one pops
I learn a new thing and
Let go of an old way
Whatever this process is called
It feels like relief and imagination
Dreaming of the resurrection
Of my old self in a new body
Which is the same vessel
I experienced all of this in
Same house different lifetime

Pink sky yellow eyes
Hazel dreams and lullabies
Fountain of youth
You can take mine
I’ve been saving it for you
Stairway to an autumn limb
Treehouse full of cedar
Wrapped randomly together
Hidden apartment of our own
Sharing head and heart space
Nowhere currently to go
Glowing returning home
To you in you with you
Envisage nose to nose
I love when my face is freezing
But my body is warm
Tight cocoon perfect room
Owl perched outside
Animaux de compagnie peut être
Who are we in this moment
Like two fallen leaves strewn
About blown together woven
Destiny could have danced
Different kinds of trees
In this world of different
Kinds of thumbprints

Do the voices inside
Eat away at you when you
Think of me like the leaves change
Do your feelings rearrange
Do you remember the first kiss
A kind of arousal in the sheets
Like the texture of the bed
Was somehow different without me in it
Did we milk it for all it was worth?
Trapped in the traffic of my mind
The chthonian spirits shake
My base root living daydreams in red
What a vision to be held
Cleaning out the shed
Playing house build the fort
To sleep in panels made out of fabric
We ask for light we want to
Live out here all night
Building the house of our dreams
Making dinner on a cardboard box
Covered in terry cloth towels
Bound to fall apart in candlelight
A simpler time no doubt

I felt the flutter of its death
Inside my hand
And in that moment
I felt my heart beat
Faster than it ever had
How my empty breath flooded
Space around my lungs
Like the dam that let the rush
Of things undone
Untying all the strings
That kept you coming here
I witnessed waterfalls
Past me to the clear
It was there I missed
The everything of you
Found in the wind
That blew for one
No longer two
From the shadows
Of your smile
Upon your reflection
Pools the memory
For my every
Lost affection
© GÄ
Sluiced up against the
Shore of my emotions
Craving wild nights
With you next to every ocean
Going nowhere fast
In the same space
Stationary ecstasy
Breakthrough
I cast my love to you
A gypsy on the edge
Traveling in your
Sexy caravan
For two
