When The Words Are Gone

Hard drawn moments look
To shut me down
When the words are gone
Where is my father

I am loosely tethered
To the life I’m in
When the words are gone
Where is my mother

And the tears roar

And the tears roar punches down

Wetlands drenching twists

A muscled foe

Into spirit

Form

Word Spun Fire

This may be not hard this word display

frankly you could say your word spun fire

into oblivion’s vanishing blast.

I owe no lines across borders

none there are but nature’s law’s

wounding humanity.

The page is your world

This may be the most efficient way of writing. Simply put words on a page, and have done with it. This is your page. These are your words. Here, of all places, you need answer to not a soul, living or dead. This is a statement of fact, friend. This, the page, is your world. Doesn’t matter whether others read this or not. I know ache fills you at this. It’s only life, each sentence, word, one movement closer to the end.  

Walkin’ whisper dreams

Walk me soft stepping rhythm

Someone sees shifting soft

Times worth knowing

Chanting up the drive

Walkin’ whisper dreams

*

Sadness fades early morning’s

Hinting sun blooms shape shifting

Love dancing on the bridge sings

Hope comes rising

Walkin’ whisper dreams

*

Deep bass drives soul center true

Treble ripples  surface waters

Waves split blue gray white

Spread grains of sand walkers

Walkin’ whisper dreams

*

Dreams knocking on distant doors

Where secrets still hidden

Beg for freedom’s freedom

Beyond history’s call I’m

Walkin’ whisper dreams

*
