William E. Marks Poems

Yes, we both know, my love
true love is elusive in life's journey
As we seek the ethereal with senses material
we are often fraught with doubt as we fill our hearts
...

my eyes devour you – you tease my salivating tongue as it rolls
to fathom your form – the flow of juices anticipate your sweet and sour
as I contemplate a chew on you
to masticate your meanings into delicious shreds
...

Who says is
is not
Who does
is
...

While halfway sleeping and waking
I feel your sensual caress
Your vibrations gently sweeping my face
with the world’s finest lace
...

The colt galloped across open plain
Daring reality with freedom found
Leaving hoof prints in dry dirt as proof
Something alive had made its mark
...

Singing through the sparkling night sky
the sound of winter’s chilling cry
Trees dancing with delight to a tune
sung in chorus under a smiling moon
...

Like a leaf flitting to and fro through the shifting air from up high to low - destined for new beginning – transforming – never the same – a moment grasped in hand from infinity to form shape in time to fill void with something collected from less into more

Like a bird filling air with wave after wave of specific sound from center of being – finding origin from source deep within – to capture, compress and release the invisible as audible – to allow listening ear to hear song of moment – as focused energy for limited time flowing as something from nothing – to fashion godly fate on wing from chords touched by tension of tone – tone that stimulates stomata under leaf – just as our universe fills space with pulsing waves of material essence born from nowhere seen or known – having source through ethereal chords of celestial being – stimulating matter to manifest as multidimensional reality through concentration of vibration

Flowing waters fashion soils from stuff of stars
as swirling cycles of atomic sun create seeds just for fun

All to grace our Earth with life born from strife and love
...

To be honest – inspiration may be found anywhere, anytime, in anything
A gaggle of geese flying overhead
Sitting in an outhouse in the middle of the woods
A weed growing through a crack in the middle of a paved parking lot
