Setting boundary

Setting boundary

A figure so slight
a toe out of dainty shoes
Fleeting outlines blurred

A dash of sulphur
sinuous lines on her brow
a frontier defined

Exploring unknown
tuning into the channel
seizing vast landscapes

Limits extended
choice to heed fluttering ribs
Pinnacle of life

Throbbing subsiding
contours of the world fading
move into nothing

On the edge of death
the Queen handed back the heart
setting boundary

The winter bearer

The Winter bearer

Across streams

Weaving the pathway

From Faith’s threads

Rolling heads

I pull on strings of yearning

The hearts’ chords churning

 

Into dreams

I shun dark away

Blue lighthouse

Frolicking

Twister and rain mimicking

Queen dancing for King

 

I bore Ring

Amulet of Earth

Totems wild

Bore me child

In wilderness I store her

The Winter bearer

With the dancing breeze I compose a song

Come hear the story of a tongue riddled

Of heroes hoary who lifetimes piddled

Stir your quaking knees and come hum along

 

My tale comes in threes that if bound are strong

Cross lakes ye Tory ride horse unsaddled

Awakened glory spirit unbridled

In Queen of the bees I right me the wrong

 

In flow of the vine decant me the well

When springtime’s blossom reaches towards skies

The blood and the wine within me they swell

 

On crossing the line I will sound the knell

Sorrows in bosom as withered past dies

Renewed the divine within me she’ll dwell

Of foreign conquests in lone lands now forsaken

Of foreign conquests in lone lands now forsaken

There is a bird in the sky waiting in silence

For the winds to return so it may fly up free

There are nests that commend stories of remembrance

Begun in emptiness, ending with you and me

 

There is a note in music that speaks of difference

It reeks of flat Earth decentered harmonic tree

Of raising frequencies over old reference

Like an alcoholic wasted in drinking spree

 

Whisper to me answer to riddles of three flags

They flutter over the fort that is now taken

Like vanquished Queen whose robe in tatters on floor drags

 

Master and servant in these grounds now mistaken

Time passing in between knows the surges and lags

Of foreign conquests in lone lands now forsaken

Bound by oath

Made in code and blood

Knights will join

Tooth and loin

Though it is the mighty Queen

Who leads King’s battle

 

Salt for Toth

Sugar for the bees

I pray strong

Though on knees

My sight restored to Unseen

A snake with rattle

 

Heart in peace

Discovering wills

I float through

Noah’s ark

It rekindles in me spark

Of destiny’s spear

 

We lead crowd

Bonded in fever

They shout loud

Voices hoarse

Blind eyes decoding the Morse

As I type haggard

 

We strip folds

From unseeing eyes

Waking up

Seeing lies

They discover land of Oz

Broken the wizard

 

The King walks

His pace a slow move

While the Queen

Unhindered

Flies high through the battle cries

Sacrifice her groove

 

Openings

Entrenched in our souls

They beckon

To the grapes

High above the wilting shapes

Of trees in the wind

 

Holocaust

Burning apple trees

Violins

Aching wood

Empty stomachs yearning food

Beating above dins

 

Dance to beat

Live die and repeat

Past blunders

Wane thunders

Warning chimes as thief plunders

Plucking from bosoms

 

Hearts turn cold

This was not the fate

We wrote once

With bright pens

The worthy cooped up in dens

Waiting for lions

 

Blue craters

They await the sane

Lost haters

Smothered dust

Dissolves into fading rust

Of forgotten steel

 

She will come

From bowels of Earth

She ignites

My hands gifts

Blue heart throbbing as she lifts

My frame into skies

 

I am two

Between me and you

I hover

Within Grace

She turns towards me her face

Sunken eyes teardrops

The Queen of new Times

The Queen of new Times

26 February 2016

 

You tied me

To winds that shook sands

In deserts

Where sky lands

In burning temples that shake

With tremors now past

 

They slew fast

Emblem of the faith

More than spate

Less than fate

I offered Heart to relate

To sunken Time’s wheel

 

The motion

A picture of Age

Withering

Under suns

Thighs tightly pressed like stern nuns

Banishing the love

 

 

 

They offer

Slates of repentance

The woes swift

Soul adrift

None in Heart for remembrance

Of miracle’s dove

 

She flew low

Battlefields hurled through

Lost ages

Time backward

The regained wings now awkward

Seagull in making

 

She calls me

A cook for all broths

Glory spent

In baking

As the light gathers the moths

Darkness now vanished

 

 

Wishing hells

They forsake purpose

Throttle days

Whisper nights

We fly through the drunken plights

Lights fading in eyes

 

Winding wells

To bottom of souls

Discover

Light’s darkness

Silent breath a lone witness

Of body double

 

They shrink rhymes

Within my heart’s sighs

Dreamtime flies

Words gather

Liquid honey from mother

The Queen of new Times

Does it speak

Of broken morrows

The stilled mind

Chilling Heart

Polar experiences

Lurking in the dark

 

I gather

Twigs and worn pages

All fire warmth

Chimneys smoke

Fading thoughts that I invoke

A life pressed in blue

 

I blow hard

Rekindling ashes

Under the grey

Red simmers

Volcanic eruptions bleed

What once could have been

 

There is dust

On my fingertips

Raging winds

That mouth quips

Lift but the blinding spent sands

Leaving million more

 

I shake snow

In glass of seconds

White my slate

Empty store

There is nothing in slain grains

No yeast to raise bread

 

Dancing queen

Shimmers with the shake

As I rake

Garden leaves

With lost stories my chest heaves

Untold for undead

 

Scattered breath

Gathers me within

Chest heaving

Soul cleaving

Remnants of threads strewn across

Rosary and cross

Once upon Time, not so long ago

There lived fussy woman who always loved to say no

 

Courtesy io9.com

 

Many a suitor would come as knight

With most shining armour but with teeth yellow in light

 

Our woman raised princess would look, say

I like ye outer shell but ye rotting inner nay!

 

Try as they might to remove decay

All the knights one by one were only faced with dismay

 

Plan they concocted for her to sway

The mightiest dragon for their princess they would slay

Calling creature she puckered lips

And lo and behold through fantasy world here he slips

You summoned me for a lifetime’s span

But forgive me my Lady I forgot my best man

 

The Lady said that was not the plan

But the Dragon blew upon the knights in their tin can

 

And as the knights panicked and then ran

To finally dawn upon her the story began

She realised that Dragon was King

And she being his Queen was now the story’s ending

And so they lived happily ever

She bore him fifty children and all were so clever

As Queen of the Sun

As Queen of the Sun

.

Forgotten past Hurt

Nothing in the flow dampens

Surging emotions

.

.

Whirling together

Within loving forgiveness

We light the night’s skies

.

.

Undone coils join

Binding in new connections

Building a new we

.

.

Energy builds up

One with all flow is our blood

Coursing through Earth’s veins

.

.

Planets now aflame

Bring to a glorious start

Rising Golden Age

.

.

By your side my Love

My beloved dragon Heart

Fiery sky ball

.

.

While Time awakens

I reclaim my rightful place

As Queen of the Sun.

Pink petals drop fast

As I race across the times

Dragon Heart ever

 .

Dicing Heart in two

I shared with you Twin other

As glaze hid your eyes

 .

The pool filled with blood

Drop of eternity speaks

Of split happenings

. 

Beyond sunrises

My cloak of Love will shimmer

My wings spell powers

Once upon a Time

Knights flew Heart’s flags and knaves crept

While maidens danced slight

 .

The voiceless Hydra

Rose to feast of fears that howled

Within dark dungeons

 .

The Queen seeks a Page

Unwritten by dark whispers

Where Heart yearns for Love

 .

Kneel unto the Earth

Beyond the voice of reasons

Listen to my Heart
