Dream Time Poetry

When the music is heard
and it seems too good to be true
it fits into the realms of fantasy
because reality checks
always play out of tune.
But mental headphones cut out the din
of off-key and deadly scenarios
to bring in the music of “let me love you”
as if love ever needs permission.
Round and round, the notes turn [...]

Moon displays her inbred grace
unconcerned with life’s distaste
at how she never falls to ground
to shatter my belief
that somewhere way up there on high
is where two lovers meet.
I know I’m me both here and there
but like the moon I shrink/enlarge
mind’s reach and stretch, capacity
to know the more of who you are
when stripped down to the [...]

What was is gone and now no more
will symbolize the truth
of love’s forever fortitude
amidst the fickle ways of man.
It’s just a tree tall proud like me
that weakened in a storm

the ebb and flow of everyone’s dreams.

swop hats with the sinfully wicked
and implant a deep and dark deadly pall
over what we’re meant to see.
Lo and behold we come upon times
when [...]

Is the sea a woman or a woman the sea?

vastness of heart’s undying [...]

In the killing fields of a loveless life
saviours rise from out the past
to throw the bones of stimulus
to the needy underdogs.
The meat is gone but the chew on bones
a seeming sustenance
for the now tied and tethered
to the stake of ripened age.
Throw the bones! The hungry need to eat
and ‘tis now the moulting season
of a love’s [...]
