Inside Atlanta

// Hound Ball//

Her spin and sway
Matched mine as the
Hounds were barking
And drinking jazz tunes
Like cultured canines,
And through our skin
Sweating I kissed her
Long and finished with
A smile, while the hounds
Howled, for nothing is
Like young love dancing
With champagne grins
Laughter bubbling over
And surrounding all in mirth.

// Mate of my soul//

Stepping around the world,
to the beat of your heart with mine
its knocking that I follow
this guiding thump
strides me
around to wherever you may be 
renew my heart a child’s sun-ray
creating light with our touch 
spinning love with our words
on this dreamscape 
you walk my angel with grace
upon my vision and fire 
lights my lanterns a spark to see
leaves me whispering poetic soliloquy
under my breath for this divinity 
my star in flesh form. 

A simple wish to be steeped in you
and over time dye ourselves 
in our love,
an endless kaleidoscope 
of every hue
in cosmic pattern
our dream to be hoped.

No red flag raised on 
horizon or otherwise be reality 
in the bond of you and I 
for your beauty plays 
out my unconscious mind
a love worn moviereel
of your countenance and smile
and the lips that hold my life 
on their breath, in there touch
the ardor of my existence. 
This thrilling visage delights
me like none other on this Earth
and not lost upon my perception
clay’s marked perfection 
that I caress and hold the body
of my love who in her eyes 
the rays of my own burn deep.

No lines could change 
this eternal youth of our love
my darling, dont you perceive?
In beauty’s glance 
doth youth bloom
but time never cause leave 
your loving grace 
saturating my world 
forever your lovely face
now and for always
burned in my mind 
beauty cannot 
alter with time.

For my love 
you are within 
hold not much weight
on confining skin 
It is your soul 
that has mine evermore
love we win!
with our light combined
through paradise’s doors
and back again.

// Discovery//

Eyes close,
new horizon rise,
a frontier of self,
the light within
the layers of 
darkness.

// The ol’ E//

The music wails spinning
in drunk teeter totter night 
with rows of old posters
lusted after by awkward eyes
and drinks are bought for the
purposeful shedding of thought
dampening of consciousness
because fuck all that noise.
We’d rather kiss alcohol on 
breath then speak words
to reach that point
cause flesh feels better
on a thoughtless ruddy face
then “held back” by all that
superego nonsense.
Step one foot in front falter
with a smile and sore ankles
saunter stumble in the 
liveliness of the downtown 
lost adult youth who really
sense the sickness of the world
but would rather have another 
night skull rolling back and howling
in the black head pounding
bullshit and disregard.

// Moments that led here//

Time goes, limbs elongate, 
face becomes sharp and sexualized,
like the pitch of our voice,
and the thoughts go from vapor to form.
Brain stuffed with magic isn’t real
but having a heart that loves says otherwise,
we living as embodied spirit 
only to get lost in the web of lies
these slavers of personified souls created,
who I am chained to no more,
and with truth I have seen light,
and in that light its nature love,
I have through these billions limbs searching,
grasped a hand and in her spark found my own.
Im home in eyes that dreams saw all my life 
walking in light validated,
nourished with the love of 
connected pieces of creation.

// Love//

Love, the sole entity 
that can dwell and fill 
eternity. In the 
limitless infinite, 
the inexhaustible 
is requisite. Love is
kindred nature of
the spirit, it is the 
celestial spark and bang.

In essence, imperishable.
In nature, incorruptible. 
In the one, indivisible.

Nothing can confine,
nor extinguish love, for it 
burns to the marrow of
our bones and jolts our hearts 
to beat, for it beams in
us all, this luminous 
distillate of heaven.

// Absence //

What void
is the lack 
of the being
who by themselves
fills the world.

// Romantic Love//

The reduction of the cosmos 
to a single soul
and the yearning 
for that soul,
greater than God, 
that is romantic love.

// Souls//

We beat,
Warm pulsing 
Rays of consciousness,
Little fragments of one,
Spinning on world,
Light, experiencing life.

// Young Poets//

We are budding and beautiful,
hands not spotted or scarred,
youthful hum vibrating with life.
No real reason for discontent
with a universe such as ours, 
we being what we are,
sentience amongst the chaos.
With this breathing in & out
can we not change the world 
to one of a harmonious 
nature, simply with sentience,
in the absence of fear, 
transcend all the illusioned,
boundaries to wake the world,
to a dewy dawn of love.

// Mindfulness//

Nothing has to mean anything,
you can tear it all down,
demolish your past with present
mindful thinking,
and build a new you
from the joy of the now.

// Lost Children //

In the lands of the Cherokee where the
law that usurped protects, the last jewels of 
a forgotten age, where human and nature
were one in the same, before they both were 
raped by corrupted unloving men.
On this southern highroads trail, these
meditating colossus’s forever weep 
cascading waterfalls in memory 
of unity, as they watch beauty destroyed, 
cities built from beauties dried bones, gazing 
the feathery, furry, joys of their lives
becoming extinct and the men that once 
gave their beauty recognition now hide 
in burrows away from light and love.
Gaia’s eyes stinging with pollution and 
death, closed till these brainwashed gods return to
their true lives alongside their mother Earth.

// Model Murder //

Maturity now miserably means
“Independence” chained to the manager man,
For most, mostly but not for mortal me.

And may you too discover,
This devil’s conundrum of humdrum
Day to day dilly dattle, empty, dumb.

For not to fill your proximity with particulars,
But your perception with wonder,
Your heart with lusious love.

Blast this paradigm that gives life to ghosts, 
Yet leads we living to wither and waste
Our life’s brevity, precious time! 

// Life Departing//

Flies flittered perforated pathways,
slicing the solemn silence of a 
sorrowful trailer. Death rattles were 
breaths of a soon departed. Cold veins
chilled the room with flighty pulselessness.  
Pronouncement of ends eminence qued
banshee’s lullabies. The shrill sob of
want in the face of loss. Family comforts 
and crumbles in prayer and genial 
reminiscance as the dwindling 
sand falls in the Moirai’s hourglass. 
The last grain fell reverberating, 
a silent shock, final exhausted breath.  
All heads rolled down like tears, 
at another crossing the veil, 
an expose’ of life’s brevity,
as the flies drank the salty drops, 
crawling & circling a lifeless corpse.

// Faded//

Black and fathomless is a callous heart 
Riposting a hopeful love & bitter loss. 
Through infidelity or failed pairing, 
This sour wine begins to suit only itself.
Dejected there are no adapting seasons, 
Are the birds singing or daisies blooming? 
Not that a dark eye would dare to perceive. 
All is in that attentive singular, 
Absorbed with eyes vague and staring, 
At an apparition long since vanished.

Gather up the lost and sore in your arms.
