Sleeping to Dream



waking memory

im up
the smell of the thought of you
restled me now im stuck
who wants to sleep
because if I fall asleep I'd lose the dream
my waking days wander
hoping my lurking thoughts dont betray

I want what I can't have
desiring a standing dream with both eyelids open
why dream
for a shore distant
a cliff too high
or a notion to long a journey to stray
when you're a waking memory
a thinking twinkle
not mine
or I
your arms intent betray


authors note: poem about a gal who didnt like a guy. the guy still likes the gal; the gal still doesnt like the guy. the guy tries to let go of the gal but for some reason he still likes the gal in fact he still thinks shes sweet. nothing wierd just a funny fact of life. yup. its about me.

the song im listening to is appropriate: "...sleeping to dream about you.. and I'm so tired."

More Than Life

new that man

blue man blue man
twenty first century blue man
im a new man
face chiseled and pressed
every contour exact

this shell is not my own
nor did i think it was a design I could call my own
im another man not the once I was man

the stains have been removed man
my heart given to that man
scars given to yesterman

changed by clouds
head stuck in a blue heaven
clear like the father day
I can truly say
Im a new man a new man
no longer addressed as a blue man

thank you note I wrote

I never knew what hope was
till I tasted dispair
thank you my friend
for all in the ways being there



Authors note: remember this. the day is never finished. there are many hours ahead.
there is always hope.

Peckle

Its wednesday again
im in ireland wondering when this horror will end
foggy clouds letting me see
just enough
seeing a peckle of clear sky
just enough
bird fly blue wings getting height
climbing the stratosphere
just enough
just enough
carried to where she needs to go

why wake to a penniless day
a ship needs wind or else its named alone

just enough
seems like its worth more than I've known

Authors note: peckle isn't a word as far as I know. I took it from the word peck


Psalm 40

1 I waited patiently for the LORD;
he turned to me and heard my cry.

even ha

roam roam sing and roam
forgetting the false comfort of a sheepskin coat
gone worn
I set my mind above
the when I leave
above the clouds
eternally home

Authors note: Dr Ravi Zacharaias raised a thought about the bible and worship. the thought is this: Have you ever wondered why we never read about God laughing in the bible? Perhaps its a Joy so great that its reserved for heaven. Perhaps the mirth of God is reserved for when we join him in eternity.

Come Back Baby

serengeti senectitude

the thought comes to me one day
a time past former to the day

its possible he said
to swing away
while mailing a letter on the del rio
grab a vine and sway
worry wont make you slip
and with every passing wave
your heart will grow fonder
escaping your aches and loving each err
realizing this day is for you
with every light swing
forgetting the baked pain with you

so I trusted
remembering
fond I was floating the memory of that day
feet leaving the ground
sweeping with speed
along the friendly waters of the serengeti

Come Up Here

Rich Pot Maker

run run legs like a chariot run
far wide fast you lunge
my race your race then all at once

we run overcome
this race is one
the way that I see it
not alone is it run

with you by my side I sit beside the day
hand tied
an aide to a pot maker
catching pennies
serving all that I have made
It's pauper
with happiness
I've become


Authors note: alot is in this poem. One thought that is at the forefront of my mind at the moment is this.

"He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose."
Jim Elliot

Live your life so that it makes sense in the light of eternity. That can often mean doing things like loving those who harm you. Take the hard road. Later on it will be worth it.

Cross I Walked

how could I have known
everything you've come to be
no greater love is there
unbeknownst to me

now lies a king
dividing thorn thought thistle and sea
for you walked on that cross
and died for me


1 peter 4:8
8 And above all things be earnest in your love among yourselves, for love covers a multitude of sins.

Author's note: the cross is everything.

Reforgiven Forsaken


to seek you with all my heart
done
but somehow its not enough
a peasants cloak becomes the pattern of my heart
a lick becomes my promise
my best arrow a dart
my rank goes from general to chef
loftiness leaves me
the question becomes lament
requiem for ideology
pedistool made queen

I serve you my giveups leftovers and scraps
pushing them aside
smiling
you laugh
joy in your eyes I can now sing
was this ever meant
for me to serve an unservable king

my crown
given so that I can see
and my cloak a preposterous thing
for my dream
in my eyes
I thought myself ruler
formerly not perceiving the throne's heart
but this time
I give in
