She Closed Her Eyes

And she locked the door behind her

Said you couldn’t come in no more

And she pressed her back against it

While her pain pulled her to the floor

And she couldn’t make out the image

The one that was beginning to form

Until she closed her eyes against you

And saw that you were already gone

The Fool

She returned from a long time gone - an old friend - unannounced - unwelcome - Wearing an empty gaze behind smiling eyes that held back cries and denied any pain - All in hopes of fooling me - but who might the fool be if we are she - I think it worked.

Homage to Glenn Gould

With thin fluttering fingers he grazed one’s heart

And then cut deeply

Forcing us to notice

Transcending the instrument under his charge

Moving self aside

To give entry to the mystery

And we would sing along

As his own voice would break free

Rising up from the rapture that could not be contained

For he was the instrument

Directly channeling source

And the music danced so eloquently through him

Blue Skies

She walked away from all she knew
Found skies of blue
And said she wouldn’t be back
Because there were sun drenched dreams 
Dripping from trees 
And they were waiting for her…

The Long Night

And the long night’s darkness obscures our light

Yet the sun burns strongly beyond our sight

With each day passing it’s glory will reveal

That the circle ever turns on this great wheel

Goddess

And there was light on her face

The sun cutting across her eyes

She the picture of grace

And wisdom epitomized

And there was light from her soul

The sun emanating from within

Collecting all the world's beauty

On her delicate skin

And I could not walk on

Nor even fully behold

Her eminence - Her strength

Her perfect body wrapped around her old soul

I could only bow

Humbly fold

Before Goddess

Before Goddess

Before Goddess

Flash of Insight

She travels to that nameless place

With a question that seeks an answer

Humbly bowing before the veils

Of time - of space - of human condition

And with swift deliverance transparency arises

Darkness out of light -Light out of darkness

Then dissipating in a flash - before it is truly beheld

Leaving only an imprint of something magickal
