Princes hauled
into golden crown
Lions mauled
at sundown
Statehood a renewed duress
the night shares witness

Kingdoms bear
the weakened bloodstream
thinning hair
revealing
honey struck head repealing
a feverish dream

Rooster hen
glowers in the den
Lions sway
in dismay
Camelia early plucked
as the rooster clucked

Reading of the poem:
Where Spirits Sleep - Eric Heitmann and Amy Wallace

Prince of Peace anew

Prince of Peace anew

7 October 2020

 
 Scalding memories
 Blisters in the soul that wept
 Abandoned all hope
  
 Scorching sunlight dimmed
 Shadows played with my mind’s eye
 Dusk fell on the plains
  
 A nightingale sang
 Darkness covered the window
 Black spiders shriveled
  
 A flutter in heart
 shaking off obscurity
 Wild thoughts bloomed inward
  
 Parched throat renewed odes
 Charred flowers revived colours
 The blackness withered
  
 A staff split curtains
 Shades of his heart shimmered through
 Prince of Peace anew

Impossibles rêves achevés âcres relents

Des stries sur mon dos auto-flagellation vois !

Du poète consommé on exhume vieux talents

Et la houle et la mer pointent en lui monde sournois

Je vis d’un parfum clair d’elle souvenirs déments

Porte encore pour ouvrir fort en cœur que tu sois

Des cieux d’hier forts en pleurs d’arcs en ciels cléments

Ouvre en moi la promesse de justice d’humaines lois

Si par impossible mon cœur devait y siéger

J’élèverais aux dieux un autre piédestal

Je nierais ce feu que ton pouvoir s’en consume

Orphée et flute de Pan les fées ne savent piéger

Princesse des mers n’est point du prince des airs vassal

Le loup et ma mère hurlent à ta mort gloire posthume

Don’t cry for me for heavens will now smile

Don’t cry for me for heavens will now smile

When you loved me then I became all Love

So I may feel fires in your bosom

I was your moon and your sorrow-filled dove

I was your flower never to blossom

 

When your heart ached I became all heartache

So I may be one with all of your pangs

And none of this could ever make me quake

Not even the thoughts of death’s sharpened fangs

 

Divided by such a thin paper wall

Between the nothingness and everything

Absorbing Love lessens shock of the fall

My Love, my light, my prince, nay say my King

 

As I wither into eternal sigh

My arms heavy cloaked in loss of morrow

Your Love lends me bliss and hopes oh so high!

Of more time, just time that I could borrow

 

Time still marble would not lend me a while

And as I croak, throat parched by your absence

“Don’t cry for me for heavens will now smile”

Again I choke on your renewed fragrance
