this thick verdancy assails
my other senses,
-although the sweet taste
of summer, hanging indolent
and heavy,
breaths past my quiescent lips.
yet it is the tangible lushness-
of mere color, that
stirs something primordial
and
raw.
i want.
i will.
i am.

Destiny would seem

the scent of

other forgotten dreams.
Raptor Rapture

under
Her unwavering protection

fading brilliance,
they dance.
snared within Her unblinking stare
they rise,

small hours,

reclaim a grandeur
long lost,

A Million Droplets, Hanging In The Air
the sweet whisper of Night's wonder lingers on between fog and field, and muted heart. -a kind caress upon this old fool's soul. the thrill of our wildest abandon lost, in a swirl of misplaced memories, cloud this mist with the sweet taste of a destiny foregone, and fill the in-between spaces with our hidden dreams and forgotten desire. Dawn approaches gently with her ever tantalizing promise, and this longing remains still.

but,
before you slip
smoothly
into this stream of wonder,
flowing from the font within,
a warning, to the dreamers:
Beware,
for here there be devils at play,
carving miracles with love,
and with flame.
Beware,
for the future knows your name.
...
and as a crimson tear falls
up the corner of a deep purple sky,
Destiny calls
as night dances away,
and the last mothers bow down
and cry,
for a new day rises,
and they fear the coming fall.
a million miracles

let me dance.
let me share the joy

dance,
as children do.
