When the deed is done
6 September 2017
Tilting head
From perception points
Stuck at joints
Light anoints
A jaded shadow set free
Darkness pervades light
Say instead
Light swallows darkness
Inside thin
Flickering
White on black blackened whitened
Checkerboard wizened
All is said
When the deed is done
Take a look
Loosened hook
The fish floating out in sea
Upstream and toil free
Reading of the poem:
The way Home – Sleep Dealer
Walk Swim Fly
6 July 2016
Rebirth’s toil
Reinventing self
Gathering
The remnants
Low hanging fruit of cluster
Like diamond pendants
Aftermath
Resounding silence
Only core
Leftover
Remembering the absent
Decoration spent
A lifetime
Walking in penance
Hearts and spades
All just fades
Tricolour flag of clover
Hovers in game dreamt
Dealing rack
Falling through the skies
Like black rain
Hurried pain
The lashes bring back flashes
Of otherworldly
Thoughts to stack
Truth to tell from lies
When twin suns
Sizzle roads
Even dark rain quenches thirst
Of insides that burst
Seamless stitch
Metamorphosis
Don’t ask why
Walk Swim Fly
Change with the hammering tides
The meek soul abides
Reading of the poem:
Walk – Ludovico Einaudi
Elegy for the Arctic – Ludovico Einaudi
Fly – Ludovico Einaudi
Follow flight of birds
4 March 2016
Mother wakes
Shaking off the crusts
From past wounds
Stretching taut
We receive havoc we brought
With our tiny hands
Tall splendour
She unfolds her gait
Ninth wonder
Defines her
Moving through Eleventh gate
Lava and thunder
Molten breath
She trembles and heaves
With the tides
As she rides
Brings upon us Mercy’s death
Split faith her stallion
The blind screech
They cling to tatters
Dying leech
Mind flatters
While the seeing heart scatters
The law of Talion
The children
Survivors of wreck
They sail lone
No captain
Only ghosts upon the deck
As they whimper lost
We reborn
From scattered blue coil
Remember
Past glory
Huddled in ship hear story
Of ancestors’ toil
Now rejoice
I will remind you
How we fled
Tomorrow
Leaving behind us sorrow
Shedding it like leaves
Nasal voice
Through Time’s loudspeaker
Calls for me
Warning shrill
It transforms to wing my gill
Splitting the ethers
Hurry child
Follow flight of birds
They head South
Where waters
Split through the red desert storms
Basking in two suns

Time will not turn back
28 January 2016
Letting go
Has come to a close
Moon was high
Tide was low
I breathe in now deep and slow
Sheltered beginnings
Waves were rough
Felt we’d had enough
On it went
All fear spent
It is time now to rebuild
With love to be filled
Hark now friends
Our lessons are learnt
Hearts empty
Room plenty
Weave back those bridges we burnt
In dreams make amends
Cosmic swirl
Heaped in emptiness
The ropes cut
In space hurled
We are no longer alone
On path to oneness
We mend hearts
Quiet minds discontent
The slaves free
The will strong
We now know where we belong
Journey to sunshines
They will fight
Invoking all might
Thunder clear
Banished fear
Can you see why we are here?
They no longer rule
While we toil
Building tomorrow
Only fool
Unkempt heart
Would not wish for the fresh start
Freedom is by choice
Green paper
A thing of the past
Heart scraper
Vanished fast
Clinging on to glory spent
Brings not life unbent
Two to three
Witnesses of loss
Stones rolling
Gather moss
Winds will stop we will be free
The rulers outcast
Make merry
Or make war a truth
I give you
Golden child
Spare the wasted harmony
Time will not turn back
Reading of the poem:
New Beginnings – Future World Music
World of Dreams – Future World Music
Final Judgement – Future World Music
Leap of Faith – Future World Music
Time Keepers – Future World Music
Quest for Freedom – Future World Music
Victory of Life – Future World Music
Play upon the Heart that all will believe
7 January 2016
Playful ghosts of you I keep them at bay
For I skimmed the Earth drank it full never
That no thoughts untrue my still mind may sway
On moss-ridden Hearth joist fool and clever
Competition rules the minds a dark fort
Yet this kiss so wane, pray concede me now
We will dance with fools bid their ships to port
Through the toil and pain that beaded the brow
I wiped away tire that kneaded me much
While the lakes and swans would gracefully flow
In death of a fire that needed much touch
Silent lip that warns disheartened and low
Play upon the Heart that all will believe
No mirth in the part a twin I will grieve
Serenade – Schubert
Lacrimosa – Mozart
Return to Simplicity
10 October 2015
.
Deck of cards in hand
I dealt with little nothings
Clubs, dices and fools
.
The stakes rose higher
The stacks piled up plentiful
One-eyed King’s Bounty
.
The riches within
Welled up within my blue soul
That opened its eye
.
.
Your strength within me
More than worldly promises
Spoke of ways to build
.
.
Energy you left
Shimmering with your essence
Took tool to Heart’s toil
.
Deconstruction’s art
Tugged on my pack of aces
Built bridges in skies
.
I let loose the deck
Return to Simplicity
I sail within Heart
.
Walk with me a thousand years
2 October 2015
.
Sun burst in darkness
Spiraling me back downwards
Pushes kill the pulls
.
The rain missed the plain
Buried in the lakes of flames
Quenching the dark thirst
.
Sandstorms blew through mind
Scorching all delicate skins
Baring them to Soul
.
..
Three sails fluttered high
Not one heard the calling Earth
Thunder in waters
.
..
Your face within three
Called the secret of the times
When wizard’s pulse knocks
.
Let me be your staff
Walk with me a thousand years
Your leisure my toil
.
Tireless the wheel turns
Delving back and forth it twists
Circle ghost of Time
.
I heard Spirit’s Heart
18 September 2015
The will was shining
Shift in intention pursued
Weary traveller
.
A call from below
Winding steep into the guts
Set a new quaking
.
Life stretched out wanton
It laid ahead gifts of Toil
That grade men of Dark
.
All pieces showed bright
Last remnants glimmered daunting
Shimmering treasures
.
In frenzy of loss
My body feasted on them
Muted gate awaits
.
Snake slithered on all
Grey tasteless pieces of rock
Lay them back to sands
.
None adorned me now
Naked soul all to forsake
Transcending pleasures
.
I trod desert lands
A sheen robing my light’s frame
Flying with the winds
.
Spirit walked behind
His shadow extended, see!
Lighting path ahead
.
“Walk on hidden path
Forsaking worldly matters”
I heard Spirit’s Heart
.
“Save for innocent
Free the mind from Earthly ties
Time has met its Soul”
.
.
