brought forth

the birds wake me up

and light comes my way

and even after the hurt

life is not all

doom and gloom anyway

there are cuts that need band-aids

and peaches on the tree

tomatoes red on the vine but

just do not think of

last night

there are loves and leaves

a chance of a cool breeze yet

even the ache has

only so much relief

there are often a few hours

before the hello of Monday and

the time is now

the red sauce was requested

spaghetti and meatballs and

good garlic bread and

nobody makes it like me

when asked for it is given

it will not make itself

and it makes people smile

green chives fresh from the garden

and nothingness will not win

tonight

August moon song

the spark will not die

and we May not cry

the spark my be gone but

the passion lives on

if you did

not have

to prepare and see before

see an inmate and see more

if you saw your future

and the final score

and be a scare and beware

my skin is bruised and

my corpse is wounded my

Skin is waxed my

seeing of the tides has

turned and my self has

returned and learned

the spark may not

and we May not

the spark is gone but

the passion lives on

cold relief

it is not that I

didn’t really miss you dear

I respect you ravishingly

and I want to disciple you strongly

but now I realize

that you and I are so alike

you were already on that page and knew

that I did not do anything halfway

but that sweet Christmas eve

as quiet and calm as it snowing ended

and as fun among fuzziness and sadness

hugs and many beers

we were not

afraid of ending up here

happening just like this

seeing just what we are seeing

and I would not

ever get this moment back once more

so if this is my only chance

time to go for it

let’s roll

August hope

if it was up to me

I would transport

myself across the miles

to where you are comfy

curled up on the couch

took a sip of your beer

as I slipped in next to you

and surprise your skin

and you recognized

me and my smile

where have I been

can you tell

can you see

how I am broken in

it isn’t fair

that in the past

I chased evil

and ran right by heaven

another day

may go by

but when I saw you I swore

I would never do that again

I remember it tonight

in the wind

in the rain

mysterious luck

moving out the window on a

yellow beam of cool morning light

stamping the day with a few new

tempting creations made last night

eager to glance down the street while

readying the connections to the

increasing activity each house has

on its sounding board floor or

under the same roof as all the little ghosts

sliding in and out of other people’s rooms

like water that flows to the lowest point

unusual occurrences that rarely get

caught in mid-act but will still change your mind

keeping your time

cut

if the memory comes

back it was a different time

and I traveled a little different

then when I did what I should do

be careful and take care

of people who

needed me and I

cannot believe how easy it was

beaten up once with no concern and

stabbed once with no consequence

and no concern but

at that time everything hurt

the experience and sound was

all that mattered yet there I was and only

now is worse because

the one I care for most

hurts worst

bit by a dragon

stabbed by a witch

brain assault by a psychic

nothing hurts worse than this

I must persist

seek free

the sun chose to

awake me in my time of need

the birds sing

as they loudly play

in the bird bath and

my painting is done but

looking like

all of life is destruction and death but

I do not believe that

is the case if you just

pretend everything is going well and

only this moment counts

when there are so many worries

what good could it be

to be anything else but

when it hurts we seek help

but if there is no time spared

with so much space between and

communication works but

only when it happens then

memories are a dream

we all toil underneath

ghost

when the waterfall

stopped it was not fully

ceased it becomes a slow

trickle and as long as

that continued and as if a

plant could be watered just a

bit at the time but was the

strongest living thing in the

room and yet we get to go

from place to place. And pretend

everything is normal as if

the experience of living

as this exact plant could

stripped away all layers

of our own personal experiences

could be removed if they do

not teach us anything and

what could that even mean as

a way of being in tune with

your inner person who

sees and knows you and can

be a ghost to you

pace

there was clouds

windy sky and a little chill

but it was lovely

I have met the pain

and will get further In it

there is nothing to stop

me from being here for you

yet I do not deserve you

so high in the royalty

you do not even face it

but I have sworn loyalty and

never have done that before

while the moon agrees and

I am closer to doing the

right thing than I have ever been

so since the walls close in

Quickly nowadays

I shall just watch the trees dance

and do my best

bites words

As i open my eyes

And hear the birds chirp

Unclear how

it means to you

and seems to you

no matter the venom in your

words from the night before

your one I am sorry

statement is all that

matters anymore

but where are we and

where your brain has been

hurts like a dart to the heart

when you spat

words you say you didn’t mean

but we got a few

minutes of hate from nowhere

all clean and made up

flex which does not

wash away the ache and

pain I cannot forget yet

I will remember and

show you the kindness I always do

because I am too

strong to be broken this way

I will not be dragged down

to the same level

I will rise up and stay

positive and sane
