in the atmosphere

to picture

how the afternoon

lines up and goes down the path and puts

the tires on the asphalt

it’s me under a blanket stretched out

you lay a kiss on my cheek before running away

as the trees in the window

wave their slow hellos

the red flowers may have died

but the purple one is just blooming

and the light smell of linden

while a candle burns on the table

an oval wooden tan

whose curved legs curl carpet

and each bit of sun

that enters the room

hides near you

we connect eyes for a look

and smile

and we are

intertwined essences

push on

sometimes the light shows up

and surprises you

and you run with it

you don’t quit

you grasp it

and make it prove its worth

you deal with it

like an inspiration to get up

and out there and dance with it

nothing can stop you now when you

know that you got this

you grasp that opportunity and

you make sure you know that hot time

and how to kick it’s ass

there are the edges or the ends

of the doubt and you adjust to

Exactly what you know you can do

just conquer the doom and

make the best of it like you for sure can

seen

I remember you

I follow through

I didn’t know that land

or care to until you told me to

I saw into you and I saw you

I waited to speak

you were prettier than

I knew it could be even if

we spoke ten times a day

I knew it was something I

had to show you

after I saw you

I knew it was true too

you lit me up like I never knew

again we saw through I grabbed you we flew

I just

need you

ruined atmosphere

red sky shows the final

use of mystic tools and

instruments of inspirational weaponry

normally calm hands shake

eager in anticipation of

dissolved resistance to the celebration

arrangements of mental decoration

then quickly change the idea

molding the discovery of a year unseen

open the door to

several directions of instant serendipity

pull out the shaker and give me some ice

have a tall sip and remember

empty glass like a politician’s eyes

red and glazed

every day a long long race

Sunrise kind

not often does

the angle of light

burst in and liven up this

permanent smile headquarters

in such a surprising fashion

it causes me

to read long before I speak

no matter what I am thinking

you shine

Yawning open doors

and seeking the water glass

before the solar system explodes

sending the offending eyes

across the mind

of a brain floating through space

and when you

come running up for a hug

the

blast

of

thunder

strikes

here

comfort

the dreams are

real and they see through

the windows that are my eyes

and put singing birds

in the sky near where you live

if you open those

pretty windows of yours

you will see flowers that

have spots like a tiger

and have a slight blush to them

similar to me when I am embarrassed

and the calls won’t be arriving

no knocks on the door today

just kisses and kind words

and a taste

of the common

warmth and heat

made of the moment

when comfort

takes over control

why bother

who bother

even doing it?

why even bother writing?

why

bother getting up in the morning why?

why bother

putting pen to paper why share

your time with people why

show your thoughts to

others why give in to

the inspiration why let

anybody see your dreams

why speak or say what

you mean or which direction

you lean yet what could

it do what could it

define what reason could

it be to make yourself

seen and if it could be

delusion or confidence

why bother making the

path why make the way

why even show up why

even clock in why even bother to

to begin there is only one

why that matters

and that for sure is

will you ever quit?

embrace

with effortlessness just

a touch or three

you drive away a sadness with

a long hug delivered

as if straight from

the cloud directly

to within my warm arms

across the sky

at faceless night

a slow dance

cheek to cheek

is the icing on the nachos and

the cheese on the cake

built in a cradle of milk and honey

a slow nap

on the couch

is minutes

hours

months

days

years

of heaven

revealed

moon,sun,sweet, song

it was as though

death was so close that

there was no further

way to think about life

and what it was like to

be alive, yet the sun

still came up somehow and

the minutes kept passing

like a breeze still keeps

shaking the leaves; the

chair was never as

comfortable as standing

even if you do not want

to do something but

the words needed to be

written and the song

needed to be sung even

if it the right time

to do it seems as if

it would never come and

there was only one way

to convey the coming

of that night even though

it was still day,

as if a way to prevent

the end of

the daylight

and you are my

day light

depression placement

diving in and out of a groove

evening out the dark and light mood

placing each foot down with force

right when the dance calls for it

endure these flashes of moving through time as

space between minutes all begins fading together

sifting out the waiting and driving out the words

in the fashion of our ancient ancestors

other people might as well not exist

never again will the path be deviated from

put yourself in the shoes of a being of fire on the moon

let yourself rest and you freeze so keep moving

allow the storm in your brain a moment to rally

coasting down a thought suck in fifth gear

edit whatever would stop or get off this trip

monsters sometimes hide behind the eyes

endure all evilness to reach the good

now the

tomorrows all look better
