RE: Coiled Circle

wondering if hemmingway saw the trainwreck coming.
like, as he slowly passed away,
he hummed his own death song...
knowing it wasnt going to be long.

artists will always
foreswear the mundane
opting for glitter

Perfection is never a detail,
it's the goal of an artisan's efforts,
but genius appears after so many years
we're amazed that your work has never gone stale.

Coiled Circle

awakening upon a cloud
the soul descended with a howl
and entered me from foot to head
some poet's dream long since dead

Cold Tea to break the Cycle

Sweaty beards in picturesque tights
Dismounting without a frown
Days spent riding up and down
Proud Parade, Cancer they fight!

Green Tea Breaks a Cycle

Tree - Green new to life
Emotion - Green with envy
Flight - Green and queasy
Tea - Green, healthy and wise

Searching for wisdom
after my tea
in soggy leaves

David

I saw the David
in a tiny crowded space
But nothing could dim the fire
with which it lit that place.

Coiled Treading Breaking out of the Circle

Crouching in the afterlife
on clouds for a couch
missing all the crowds of Earth
pushing, stinking, loud.

and all the time ive spent in this couch, at this place...contemplating life over miles and miles of ink, reminds me of the fact that somethings maintain, while everything else changes... this couch is everlasting...

couched side by side
soul and the body it rides
marry and become one
so we rise with the fiery sun

old tease to break the style

Dilute the ink in a glass of whine
complain to the publisher you haven't the time
forget another deadline pour another drink
all I ever wanted was time to think

ah, the truth, a bitter tea
best drunk cooled and absently,
taken with a grain of salt,
pointing fingers, placing fault.

bitter is more interesting
sweet is a placebo
truth can hurt
but hopefully is how we choose that we go
