where has time been
gone are clocks from the sky
no messengers from fire or moon's stone
red deer run home like i can't
water tastes my bones
i am then new
but i just can't
held in
held back
wrapped up in webs

it's been years since anything made sense
here
the town square
summertime chiseled humid
sweat sharpened by stone
falling off me in painful drops to share

the loneliest mist somehow finds me
together we save
together we are saved
for poetry through the ceiling. ISBN: 1 4241 8840 7

"Hear me, my chiefs!
I am tired; my heart is
sick and sad. From where
the sun stands I will fight
no more forever."

Chief Joseph - Nez Perce

    the spirit dying
    a narrow door splintered sways in mid air
    a rusty skeleton key shakes my hand
    then nothing
    a shouting owl

    i'd like to move forward
    blocked by my own shadow
    ahead & behind this framework
    when my train comes steaming thru
    then nothing
    a shouting owl

    a miserable sky rotten & flat
    all trees empty & cold wrapped in stale air
    every gravestone falling apart old
    my own skin drying like soot
    the spirit dying
    then nothing
    a shouting owl

    Nothing wrong with a bit of shameless self-promotion from time to time ;)

    the depressed & alone
    heat & sand have that together
    nothing anywhere any direction none

    empty balance
    tired sores
    injured down here all to much in blanks
    the wrong living isn't even happening
    could it all be incorrect
    stuck the entirety of self

    12 hours of sleep
    nothing in sunlight
    12 hours of sleep
    unimportance in sunshine
    12 hours of sleep
    zilch in i am

    life is motionless without a face
    passed

    Age is not birth or death that separates seeing, it could be that you were born long before
    Or long dead before moments intimate- it could be we never meet you're decades yet born.
    The sigh you let out is heard amongst the whispers roaring in the seas
    The signs you write out are printed amongst the lines interwoven deeply in the leaves.
    Stars shake fast and nights fly by and days flow constantly it's proving only this to us:
    Even though we may never truly meet, I understand you, and there's only you who understands me.

    As far as outsiders go, I'm out-sider than most
    A frame twisted left and I'm straggling i
    Right off the page, and left off the page.
    As far as words, I wish there's an answer to state but
    I can't relate what to say,yy when I''m outside so I wait far outside
    Where I've relegated myself but with you never met I belong.
    When I hear music, I fear no danger. I am invulnerable. I see no foe. I am related to the earliest times, and to the latest.

    Thanks...very hard to write, but came out like babies' first tears
