    orbit me with string
    and painted eyes
    my palm sees you as
    a knot

    I can't hunt.
    Concrete blocks the orchards
    from sprouting all the food
    i wish i could grow

    and then I woke up one
    morning self-aware
    and unable to walk outside
    naked. Proposterous!

    save the earth, save yourself
    look within and know your wealth
    reach down and pull the weed of sin
    for any change must start within

    In the parking lot with

    Pushing along; he had a --

    A lack of instrument deterred
    Me not, we walked the
    Tire-trodden roads; he had a --
    Ribbon in his hair

    walking along
    dark alleyways
    empty to all
    but the look in your eyes
    --------
    grab that suitcase
    leave everything behind
    just you and me
    on the roads of time
    -------
    something trapped w/in these walls
    darkness surrounds, cold inside
    empty cynicism and chained eyes
    leaves us wondering

    this messy room
    begs for a cleaning
    but lazy summer sun
    calls my name

    ****

    quatrain quango
    like 4 line haiku
    for all to play at
    yes, even you!

    Falcon, crow and peacock feathers
    sway in the marker jar;
    silver rain drops ripple

    the lavender lake twilight.

    shipwrecked!
    Freedom at last
    and crabs and howling
    appertures of summer saulting sea salt

    blue cola tea
    i've prepared it
    just for me
    after I burn my throat from

    green tea in glass
    that i puff
    that i puff
    that i pass

    body on the path
    trying to move every way
    all night, keeping warm

    in mist
    by ocean
    there's fire
    i'm on earth

    he's blowing a howl
    so ferocious and fowl
    swiping clay from the cliff
    so fucking beautiful

    falling over sand
    angel circle
    with a triangle
    with an eye

    two feathers
    and a symbol
    of a chair and
    infinity

    quatrain after quatrain
    on meditation on mandalas
    and rainbows all intertwining
    to the sound of every single water molecule

    the rhythms in my head
    they're all dried up and dead
    nothing left to morn
    there's something in the way

    Make a beat
    so funky and neat
    that you wanna get naked
    and illuminate your chakras in the sand

    I love that green tea, but blue cola tea sounds interesting, what is it?

    injured knees too stiff
    for even the half lotus
    but I find now, sitting normally
    works just as well

    but don't tell
    those silly monks
    they like to contort themselves
    trying to look holy

    boiling the butter
    and the milk
    and the pasta
    and the herbs

    dying sea
    spread water like wine
    open mind
    to rebirth the dying sea

    as if blown by a gale
    the forests fell
    in the blink of an eye.
    we're soon to be screwed.

    a bird alights
    on the air compressor
    the roofers don't see
    too busy working

    up to my room
    LIKE A WILLOW
    I shall swallow all of your
    allocated data

    a dream so lucid
    of a gate so high
    I jumped and knew
    that I would begin fly
