Dream Time Poetry

She thought to let the matter slip
into the garbage bin of mind
from where no reflux back into
the realms of heart’s desire.
So come the day when mind repels
this nonsense of perceived reason
the matter floats around about
the good and bad of each season.
Nowhere to go and homeless love
useless to man, beast, woman, child,
seeks to grab the podium
and [...]

Take it, yes, and scratch it through
with pen of ink bold double sized
and hope the near and sure divine
can live without a story line.
‘tis not the time nor for this life
to not evolve around the tale
and immerse the heart in mystery
that not in truth can ere be told.
There’s a story in my love for you,
a [...]

So lives a woman now
in the throes of vacillation
not weightless but yet floating
in the air of indecision.
She balances a moment – just
on thermal waves of money lust
but like a brick plummets to earth
and crash lands in the summer lands
of soul’s innate desire.
The air screams, “Money, money”
and she knows to humbly bow
but how the back stiffens [...]

I’m at the base of life’s pyramid scheme
stretched and extended to no good avail
adding some more to the already before
then some more and thereafter some more.
Not good, not bad, but foundations don’t last
when stuck in a whirlwind of everyday chores
that produces a mind devoid of intent
to retreat into the glory of the essential “I am”.
But [...]

As the world turns round and round
so spins the one who loves
slow motion it would seem
from the then into the now.
That spin is like a crown of truth
that adorns my thoughts and moves
and glitters its beliefs
from the mental realms of memory
to the present physical.
I step out sometimes from my queenly guise
into the work-a-day
that spans a [...]

What’s mandated must not be
a now and ever after deal
that ne’er can change or modify
what first was thought ideal.
Like me first there and then to here
a plan’s no plan if I’m not free
to formulate a better rule
according to the need in me.
The deal of then; how great it was,
how awesome to believe in you
and then [...]

It didn’t take a pound of flesh
but a ton of mental stress
to turn the wheels of change
and roll with the incomings
to the edge of where I’m at.
And the edge a place of reverie
where moments congregate and play
soft symphonies of stay right here
or beat that drum of change again
and find another edge.
How sweet and lilting is [...]

It’s a constant clickety-click, click-click
of time rolling down the tracks
with no more a mountain or steep incline
to slow what cannot be stopped
or a pause at the junction between then and now
to take on more meaningful stuff.
Clickety-click, click-click, click-click,
on and on to nowhere, somewhere,
where time makes its very own line
and decides on concurrent or separate
according to [...]
