It’d been a while since I last
Sat down to write
Something.
Sis is in town
...

Growing or grown accustomed to
The merry partied living,
As the snake, it now acquaints itself
With the temperature of giving.
...

Oh this is it,
The co-keds multiplied by 50
Inversed and then squared off
And separated
...

Since the last moon girl you know
Your eyes bore holes upon my soul,
Becoming whole again with out you
Has not seemed real, impossible.
...

Alert!
That is what you must be.

While reading poetry, like writing it,
...

How is it you can teach me?
How can I be un-taught?
I must return Divinity,
Beginning Inner Thought.
...

Meggy darling
Diamond dear
These diamonds are my greatest fear.
...

Standing, admiring, the flame.
The smoke reaches out for me, tickles
my nostrils with the scent of Church.
The flame moves lower on the stick of incense.
...

And there I was
Walking back into
The night,
With the man
...

When the letters blend and blur
Sights un-seeing can occur.

And in this moment
...

Walking.
The A.R.E. has never seemed so far away.
Its cold today.
...

Frosty-beard.
Afeard of losses and accruing.
I’m suing on account
Of please-
...

I too once was a wild stallion.
Wind at my back,
Sun fresh and always
upon my face.
...

N
the collected files of wonder
dot BMT exists as DMT . (dot)
the lesser of two stupids
...

Limpid essence of understanding
For that which is no disappearance
And returns without disguise to float
Without purpose or knowledge of its going.
...

Love is infinity
As life is not reality.

Missing little messages
...

In the foreground
Of the paint shop-
There stood a sprightly looking man.
...

Here and now,
I am the professor;
Of truths already alighted
Upon
...

Heart beats fast – seeing such designs,
It’s time to come – Come, you’ll be fine.
The hour draws near – shine yields twilight.
This day can’t last, don’t try to fight.
...

Once in wonder,
Stepping I
Found a place
Where I could lie.
...
