  • rattle the bones

    everything too suchness
    fan rattle to flame seething
    and shudder limbs shake

    ragged wrap in arms
    of rags and wraith
    chasing all elder ways

    knock the stone fell
    rattle the bones
    shake in clenched silence

    rattle all those bones

  • thistle & woad

    with a head full of thistle &
    hands stained of woad
    skating away over water to
    while away a spell
    with the acorn man

    you probably
    would not understand
    that has become a given
    over these near
    twin scored years

    and so it comes to
    wander this wodewood alone
    chatting with oaks
    in the blackthorn
    with a head full of thistle &
    hands stained of woad

  • in the weald

    gone to wode
    in the weald
    gone to fever 
    in the head
    would he to wild
    oh darkling, at
    spanning rivers
    in his bed

  • wandering at amble

    is it descendance
    or ascension
    when desire is
    in suspension?
    when you feel
    tension but remain
    uncompelled to act
    on anything at all?
    are you alive
    without drive or
    are you just living
    life small?

  • black sands

    i walk
    the black sands
    hand on hand
    holding the blade
    carving a line
    none dare cross

    we are rose petals
    scattered scarlet
    blood my blood
    a desert red without
    you mouth to
    drink me in

    winter song of wine
    a stone beach
    broken of time
