Let me stick that pen in my palm

Let its ink and blood mix

May a poem bring me calm

This line my med or my fix

Love sorry

Inked inventory

along the limbs of love

Tells a restless story

filled with blood, sweat and fear

A heart is sorry

two more uncovered

Between shame and glory

the bed is made for one last tear

Me beggar’s palm

Wrote me poem in me palm

So that when I beg

I give

Wrote me poem in me palm

So that when I reach

I teach

Wrote me poem in me palm

So that when I touch

I speak

Hid me poem in thy dream

that thy clenched fist

protects

Blunt

A jackpot of tea party

The best job offer

For a stolen poem

The first steps of a first born

The tears after the fall

For a stolen poem

The courage to dance blind

The fishermen’s patience

For a stolen poem

Any body parts

Plus a bouquet of irises

For a stolen poem

A unifying theorem that works

The remains of dismantled quarks

For a stolen poem

Our blunt lover’s seeds

In our open palms

For a stolen poem

Sweet

From your sweet lie

I draw a poem

and in your palm

I let it lie

On a clear day

I am a living bridge

over the Forever

The river that follow flowers

from Lake Pure to the Sea of Love

On one end I touch the rocky Neverland

underneath my apron is a shelter

for the homeless reader

My other arm touches the wetlands of Plenty

Under me awaits a barge

that lulls new lovers

From my post I can flag

the bird of liberature

for a ride in the air

On a clear day

you can see the night

Here life thrives unabridged

All passes and all returns

on one side or another

of whatever the arches care to teach

From a ridge or a beach

all will smile to you

when on a clear day

like me you see all

the way to tomorrow

Drawn

Meticulously

Courageously

Playfully

Painfully

Hardly

I drew like a child

the letters of my name

the first

not the last

The lines showed hesitation

The shapes were amusing

The arrangement thrived

in approximation

And I had forgotten all of my worries

all the words that came before

all those to follow tomorrow

Meticulously

Courageously

Playfully

Painfully

Hardly

I drew one last time

the letters of my name

the first

not the last

As would do the elderly

I became

Open fire

Snow in the wind

light in the night

the ashes of speech

taken to sea

 

Long gone am I

my soul, my war

my sad poetry

my loud open fire

The birth of a word

The world of a bird

slides and swirls

under the wings of time

Time flies

Is it time to sing?

The world of the wise

whims and chimes

when the unspeakable hatches

Time lies

Is it time to reason?
