Death came wearing blue velvet carnations
reveling a life full of despair.
All written on a
hand labeled sign.
Holding dream-like saints bound and hostage.
Like crusted words from stones of tyranny.
It carried him soft and true.
Eclipsed by destiny’s final crease,
his offerings were his in blue.
Did he know?

Could he know?
Where the mountains left realm.
Those offerings from the table of notions.
The key to the stable of forgiveness-
lamented truth.
Deeply centered within our decisions,
providing our endless breath.
When the answers are covered by lineal
Crossroads.
Like this stop sign crowned,
to this, his corner.
Asking for our own redemption
from the spirit in his eye’s.
Moments of deliverance
For everyone called who?

If nothing is something
then everything is
our thoughts and feelings
and all that exists.

I haven't read anything from you in a while and I thought it was about time, but I think its a bad idea to go to a show and come back all beat up then try to concentrate on poetry.  I want to read this again later.
