Some poetry.

****

.a theory.

so much is lost in sleep
more than most will ever suspect
slips away from us in the dark
those hours veiled in lack of light
timeless time between dusk and dawn
hang dripping darkly with knowledge
every moment alive and huge
spilling poetry in huge splashes
the silent words of every bodhisvatta

dreams are the reason we will never hear them
sleep is why we will never know truth
though we sense its existence

life's secret wisdom is hidden from us
enveloped in the sticky tar of night
humanity craves enlightenment
forever we will seek meaning
under the harsh glare of day
unaware that nirvana flows past us
fluid ideas
reality thick and sensual
hot as molten steel
pure as holy water
while we are trapped in slumber


****

.sketchy sunrise.

there are times
in these cold early hours
neither awake or asleep
alive or dead
my mind whispers rustling softly
a crumpled paper ball

trying to process thought
with a slice of dead tree
the world moves in forest time
and a day becomes a hundred years
minutes build up around me
slowly forming concentric rings


****

.deep in the jungle.

one hundred seventy five
beats per minute
three o'clock in the morning
resonance
each note lasts forever
unravels into infinity
rhythm is all reality
music says everything i cannot
wordless prophet of all truth


****

.08/15/02.

this morning is slightly green
thick emerald and blue
like the ocean

a blotch of gold bleeds into the clouds
like ink on wet paper
veins of light extend
through this upside-down sea
from the edge of horizon
through webs of pine boughs
and up into the day

slowly the greenness diappears
and i know
this blue up above cannot be
as deep as the ocean

(this one needs work still, but its pretty special...its from last night)

"it doesn't matter where you are/ you're still a shining star" -Jerzee Monet

everytime we look up at a nighttime sky
we'll remember how it felt
to be in eachother's arms
in eachother's hearts

whenever in our lives
wherever we may find ourselves
on a clear night we'll remember

everytime you gaze up at Cassiopeia
that's me your queen in the sky
and you are that single star
your star the one you choose
constant twinkling forever strong and bright
you will find it
and that is what you will be

everytime we see a shooting star
and know that along with that wish we are also given the power to make it come true
everytime
i will think of you
and you will think of me


****

(another unfinished one from last night, which one do you guys like better?)

my tears made of moonlight
falling on us silver as the shining from the sky
that makes your eyes glow golden
this moment is so rich and real
and when we say
-love-
it gathers up these past weeks
every heartbeat spent holding hands
every constellation every kiss
takes that sweetness organizes and seals it
so it will be in each of our hearts
always

no matter where we go
what we do or see
or who we become
it belongs to us

and everytime we see a shooting star
we will both remember
how i cried tears of joy under a full moon
and how it felt
to hold eachother
