human body is about 60% water and it talks to the sea
the lightening flashes and the thunder smashes
when living my life like this i am stirring a fire forgotten
a living entity inside my body once thought to be dead
you guard me and wake that feral part in my being
it’s the cry of the valkyrie
with those chosen fearless and brave
the climatic escape from the battlefield then to valhalla
out of breath
gasping and clenching
eyes wild and furious
shirt pulled over my head
the resl-new decor for old dwellings
feet tangled in the headboard
hands lost in tangles of hair
the mindless madness
pleading desperation pain of possibilities
can overthrow and compromise
even the best of planned events
but nobody dies a with a smile when they are too afraid to live
the screaming
the fighting
the turmoil
tears and sobs
just reactions
there are times it is the pain of war
the pit of the mind as dark as the sea
it is the call of something before light
before noise
the sound of genesis
a sorrow so demanding we must exercise it
before it consumes the lot of us
there are times the light shines so bright
with such joy
no sun can compare
it is on those days i would like to call god and all the gods before and after
a joyous occasion
to celebrate the beauty that glistens in the holiest of purity
but my love for you
is an unbridled tornado chasing cars under bridges
it is the unexpected rainbow in the east and west
the taste of fresh honey
they tell me i was alive before that night
it seems ages, lifetimes ago
seeing you laugh
the true beauty of life in your smile
no sunset compares
smoking a cigarette in shadows with whispers and the cold wind biting
standing on the front porch
tears streaming like rivers watching you go
silently sobbing and pleading
to any forces listening to see you again
my aces finally came through
my truth shook and shimmied
realigned
the big bang in all it’s glory and splendor is a flicker in a closet
the universe was created in your eyes
conception began in your touch
seeing your head back and shimmering laughter
i know what formed stars
your sadness is the cry of a lost child
your tears forming clear pools
a cleansing
you are a raindrop in a drought
giving life to the earth to start again
you are rebirth
