    to fall out of lifetime
    into dream embraces
    and forget an outside
    imagine

    careful, clouds
    glide against ever blue
    falling up into the you
    imagine

    lost roads in drift
    over the hills and
    far away, a heaven to
    imagine

  • gone to heath

    my head has gone to heath
    mottled stone of lichen
    passing steel or passing sun

    under rain and dampening
    cold the wind whistles wending
    through the heath stones
    that make of my head

    slender spaces shimmer quiet
    thin be'twixt and 'tween
    here upon my hillock of dream

    wearing other’s faces
    i saw you stealing kisses
    the consummate thief 
    you are

    but i can see through
    your disguise and lies
    i can see a million miles
    away

    you know? it made me laugh
    left laughing ‘til morning came
    i tip my hat at your
    audacity

  • bulwark

    while everyone is singing
    their empire songs, we
    slip away to the night

    there is no trust for
    the watchmen watching
    with halberd's shining
    white in the spotlights,
    their axes at our necks

    we could be heroes, too
    a bulwark against
    the storm, but first...
    a kiss before dying

  • oyasute

    they oxcart me
    into deep wood
    to cover me
    with leaves

    "a blanket,"
    they say
    "to keep you
    warm at night,"
    they say
    before they
    drift off in
    the way of
    autumn maple,
    scarlet against
    the frost

    it is the guilt
    that makes
    them so
    but
    this is where
    i belong.
