Strutter Step

juking & jiving
your damn way through, but
stickin'
to the script like
you were bred to do.



life plays you tight-
this ain't no zone D.
but there are so many ways
for us to get free.


no matter
how
you twist,
turn,
or fade away,
home waits for you,
right now,
right here.


so,
walk your way
and remember
to play YOUR game,
and we promise
to welcome
you home
once again.

the great game

each
passing
beat slips
the wisdom of solitude
further
away,
consumed by fear, and
hope.




lessons
painted lovingly
or
cruelly seared,
all fade
under the silent passings
of nights inumerable.




a cold hardness
grants succour
until Dawn's
golden smile brushes
past once again.

the call / der ruf

beckoning so sweet
with the wisdom of butterflies
and posies.

how could I resist?

so I answer
with love.

and hugs.
and a dog.

Thank you ‘Mina

——–

winkt so süß
mit der Weisheit der Schmetterlinge
und
Blumenstrauß.

wie könnte ich widerstehen

also antworte ich
mit Liebe.

und Umarmungen.

und ein Hund.


Danke ‘Mina

cracks

there are cracks
in the cradle of your soul,
but you are not broken.



though
some rivulets of
feeling spill
over,
you remain
whole.



so come,
with all your scarred perfection,
and let us explore
a fractured past,
tell tales,
and share a kiss that will last
for eternity.


let us polish these cracks
with love's wild caress.

misty rendez-vous, without you

a final kiss,
haunts the peaceful morning air,
lighting the truth within
our dreams.


a tender
longing, tugging
soft
at sweet opportunity
let slip
away,


craving
those firm memories
of
what could
have been.


so we trace gentle
upon Her ouroboros of sensuality,
sinuously towards
fait accompli,
and
rejoice,

set free
to be you,
and
me.
