Open waters of love
Has become scarce
We’ve become weakened feelings
Momentary thinking

Hiding, shifting, what carries scent?
What really matters…?
Compatibility…
If you don’t think alike, there will be
Difficulties
Honest cooperative twin desires
For the fiddler of accompaniment
White birds perch on gold light
Of afternoon compassion
For each other, which simmers
Unto the nights, accomplishments

Surpassing dreams
Caring more for the falling smiles of another
It is the armload of kinship which steams corn
Amorous

Where truthful folks watch a campfire
The riffle of water on stones
Rippling
Turning bright the sky, on grey canvases

I was a wayfarer of bones
Afraid, with thin skin
Wanting so to believe in the knowledge of oneness

There, to, I’ve squandered dreams
Stealing shoes off my own feet
To wade a ford of singularity
But I am a distant battle fire
Where no one may graze
Until the dead in me, becomes saved
Therefore I will know my self
And him, as he will know me

I did not mean to scratch the car
Or turn green leaves yellow
Now still air has long skirted my knees
The work has been watching forces that breathe
Through open windows of forgiveness which bleeds

There is not one thing material which rides high
But for the love of others deep inside
Crossing a place that Shakespeare inscribed
Desire for another’s spouse is taking their garbage
Throw away all blame
The choice was ours…

We are a oneness, a sacred community
Generating the child of full version unity
What runs between sets up an entire block
Of concrete pillars which welcomes
Honesty in contacts

Yours, mine and ours
We’ve become such a culture
That encourages dismay
Negative gypsies in the name of love?
Mounting skin not to be reckoned?

Permissive tents of before thoughts
Positioning mankind in grave lust
Something in darkness reminds our struggling climb
That a ticket to nowhere is without love

Love is caring more for another then of oneself
Thinking about the ripple effects of selfishness
The hindrance of lack of encouragement
With courage to disapprove
To turn away from dishonesty and lies and disapprove
Of the selfish fool…who would use
Forgiveness does not wear the name tag, victim

Come out and be naked, dance with natures
Desires…white flowers with segments
Are long, fat and straightforward….
Drop the gloves of trade
Wise men stand on the shoulders of faith
With respect…not wearing blinders
Sunglasses or veils of fake desire
Love coaches an honest warmth
Smiling on it’s neighborhood
without one ounze of lust in mind

my imagination with your tours
of the center of whirlpools
