ExhaustionExhaustion

I wake, swollen with noon heat.
Half dressed, I stumble,
elbows and toes catching
on the clawed feet of chairs,
the blunt holes of open cupboards.
I sometimes forget my name.
In the kitchen, I pepper the rice
instead of salt. Black flecks surface
in the boiling water,
sea turtles migrating.
If I knew where you went,
I would follow. But all you left behind
was an old sweater, an empty notebook,
an exhaustion,
complete and infinite
as the space around a closed fist.

CONTRE TERRE - TO THE GROUND -Haiku-

(english translation below)

Contre Terre

Rosée du matin
Ma face contre la Terre
Je suis une Larme.

Naoko, 1123.
Frantz, 2007.

To the Ground

Morning dew
My face to the ground
I am a Tear.

Naoko, 1123.
Frantz, 2007

AMoment of AcheUnder my skin,
I want the stench of you.
Pheromones groan,
the ache of you.
The bounty of
your reproach,
that envokes
a fire of I n' you.
The universe waits
for the You and I verse.....of you.

Questions over breakfast

it is possible you were never here

it is possible you were

it is possible

it is

solar perplexusagain, it rises, that stupid sun,
trying to brighten my nurtured overcast.

no matter how i try -
roll over in bed, bury my head.

it still shines all optimistic.
go away. leave me alone.

can't you see i need to suffer...?

suffer!

thus farcannot help but wonder
how far to the future
will these echos live within my head…
until i'm dead?

and, what of thereafter
sans the lure of laughter
will your music of the soul endure…
can we be sure?

questions of the cosmic
sung within a lyric
thoughts and sound
spring-like rebound
if tracked down
by your magic hound
will anything of substance found
give us a clue empiric?

five years have seen these queries dwell
herewith, your storied presence still...

missing my seasonal markersno monarchs or canadian geese
pass as harbingers through flander's fields;
still, two seeds did persephone eat
and so to her husband she must yield.

i saw my breath on this morning's air
(just for a second, only a wisp);
a reminder it's time to prepare
for nights gone cold and mornings frost-crisp.

inceptionthe human mind instinctively seeks to find patterns and meaning in the vast torrent of information taken in by our senses during every waking moment. this is one of the reasons we have survived as a race (so far), as well as the source of experiences that some consider 'mystical'. not to say that all mystical experiences are just a by-product of our neurology, or that those that are should be deemed any less amazing or personally meaningful. when that still small voice speaks, listen; when epiphany dawns, awaken; when inspiration strikes, create...

Old shoe in a box
Dreams of asphalt and freedom
Looking for sole mate

White Sunday 321: Librahow curious that you are meant to be
the balance to my passion
when so often it is the other way
as the aging lion gives counsel and then, against his nature,
stands back and waits for you to see
he is not an illusion or a fool,
but possessed of gravity enough
for all the stars to circle, even when he bows his head
and swears incessant fealty
as you weigh his suit
against all the prettier baubles
the world has to offer.
