Fade away
13 June 2017
Light in dark
A token of hope
To instill
As we cope
The winding pathways now spelt
With intent strong felt
Innerved spots
Oozing through my pores
Inhaling
Lung flailing
The knowledge that the light stores
Tight forget me nots
Purple play
In the rising seeds
Uprooted
Fade away
Like gardener tends to weeds
Saves rose from decay

Vibrations
Bring me through Ether
The pathways
Of fever
Coursing through the cells that blow
Out of proportions
Dilation
A course of set tunes
Seven moons
Chosen runes
Running across the power
As the knaves cower
Distillate
Implosion of night
In the rain
Course again
Shadows of forevermore
From back to before

Look around
Forlorn beaten ground
None to hound
Southern bound
The pathways never astound
Master of the sound

The Last One Knowing
1 January 2017
In owing
Release of the debt
Centuries
Pile old trees
The new orchards growing wild
Garden of the child
The eye sees
Beyond the regret
Unending
Unbending
Flames flickering extending
Uneven hearts fret
We walk slow
In rhythm of glow
Candles light
Ravens flight
Pathways of morrows showing
The Last One Knowing

The Last One – Audiomachine
Uprooted
14 August 2016
Cycles start
Within the days count
Sundays end
In Mondays
Twirling through Fridays tolling
To days of the King
Hidden coins
Treasure my crowning
Golden steel
Shines at heel
Drowning water ankle deep
Weaknesses we keep
Fruit of loins
Baskets plentiful
Chosen few
Green in hue
Ripened by the sun and dew
Morrows promises
They depart
Like the rolling stones
Downhill slide
Left to glide
They carve pathways in waters
Unbridled their ride
Like the tide
Ebb and flow of Love
Wandering
Reaching back
When the storms turn skies pitch black
Sporadic in touch
We juggle
Solitary spoils
Burning coils
Uprooted
When the fires invade trees
Sudden burning frees

Tabula rasa
17 July 2016
Brutal happenings
Dissolution of a life
Identity swept
Right off the gridlines
Not a temporary stance
A move off the dance
Five six seven eight
The exercise continues
Replacement dons shoes
Four three two and one
Count no more for it is done
The clock ticks onward
Irretrievable
The resolutions taken
In past extensions
Pour me a nightcap
Resolutions lack resolve
When ceilings cave in
Oceans covered din
Thunders of a hundred waves
Sealed the leaking tap
Trains and boats sink fast
The fish venture unabashed
Reverse aquarium
Meek summer nights stall
My quaking communication
A guilt to recall
The water the fall
Can you see what I must see
Blinding waterfall
Disconnected straits
Bridges of desolation
Pathways for the dead
They crawl slow around
Inconsolable white light
The sob heaving chest
The city crushes
The will of bleak emptiness
I yearn for forests
Within the jungle
Only one kind of law rules
No constricted schools
Unmanned the learning
When the forests are burning
All animals flee
When all are equal
In problems solutions lie
The friend in rival
Give me the blind eye
Let me treasure ignorance
That seeps as I sigh
Humanity’s pains
Grit my teeth shatter my bones
Survival in clones
Twirl me a new leaf
Grant me renunciation
Turn me the tables
Tabula rasa
When all is said and undone
Back to the square one

Dissolving in Light
24-25 April 2016
Visions bright
Etched in my mind’s eye
Unfolding
Two pathways
Sliced spirals replicating
Within netherworld
In dreamtime
Their contours design
Hidden realms
Where I walk
Ancient the language we talk
As you ride by me
This dazed world
Swirling into void
Splintered parts
Of the whole
Stretched beyond Elders’ control
Lost generation
They watch keen
The turn of events
Guards unseen
Hovering
The wise keepers of the ring
Where all Time subsides
I spill pools
Diluted honey
My body
Oily tool
The hands a token of light
As suns’ rays emerge
United
We fly through bridges
Of futures
Crystal beams
The gate is more than it seems
Dissolving in Light

Falling drops of rain
Mingle with the yellow sands
Brown maps on roadside
Parched memories like deserts
Drenched by heart relive pathways

Lagrimas – B Tribe
The Path of the Faith
9 March 2016
We lead simple lives
Walking through waves and meadows
Live oscillations
Some days. happiness
Unobscured by dark desires
Some days bending low
We discover fate
Hidden behind decisions
A making of made
Invisible eye
It guards encourages guides
On pathways of life
Illusion a charm
I walk paces in knowing
The will not to harm
Incensed sense of us
Inflation highly paid price
Kneeling down raises
Let thy will be done
Only in the full naming
Will I find your creed
Seven steps to move
When strikes the eleventh hour
Circles concentric
Ninth realm will unfold
As the heart opens to love
The Path of the Faith

Remembering to forget
9 December 2015
Retracing my steps
Between yesterday and now
A vicious circle
Like crazed desert dog
Chasing its tail in frenzy
I re-enact slates
The breath wasted here
The lost moments of freedom
While logs turned ashen
The frozen winters
The frost I loved so deadly
White of Heart’s icings
The sight of roses
All at once chilling and bright
Red drops from my palms
Desperate clutching
Waiting for fire to recede
Red is not colour
There was a garden
Now sunken in memory
Where bluebells stood tall
The winter then walked
Sprinkling in hidden pathways
Demons in daisies
All colours turned stale
Thorns like nails in my bloodstream
Travelling to Heart
From bellies of fire
Tidal waves of bright gold struck
The forests simmered
Surrounded by flames
Screams of pain, hope’s pathways gone
Welcoming scorching
A clearing in lands
Where wild forests slow drifted
In birth of woodlands
I cut through the woods
With new life in core and axe
Only shrubs survived
Says in tunes of Blues
He: You don’t know what love is
I: Perhaps I don’t
Searching hard in soul
I reckoned I’d lost the hues
I rubbed, rewrote slate
Crisp parting with fate
Remembering to forget
Woods and lost voices
