Starting over

Starting over
Re-becoming
Undercover
Mindscape combing

Then out there

Don't know where
or when or why
or how or what,
don't know when by
Don't know what's true
Have to trust what rings
Can't see through
dark envisionings

Starting over
Re-becoming
Undercover
Mindscape combing

Then out there

Shaky Egg

Heartbeat in the curve:-
"It's different when it's happening to you"
Shadow hands conduct, disturb
Unavoidable endings personal too

If you look for the helpers, you'll know there is hope*
If you look for the helpers, you'll know there is hope

You would rage in the pain
Call into the dark and out what is true
Justice and death are not the same
It feels different when its happening to you

If you look for the helpers, you'll know there is hope
If you look for the helpers, you'll know there is hope




(* Fred Rogers)

Ring

 

still worn

wrapping itself

like a worm

digging claws

through skin

and bone

and hanging on

a dotted line

to the ever after

*

just a tiny touch

five minutes out

of consciousness

enough to spark a fire

connection with

the source of all

our instinct

and desire

 
 
 
 
 
 

 

 

 

 

 

Dad

 

While small bleeds seep inside your mind

Creeping stealth intent unkind

A thousand tears tear through my heart

My soul engaged and ripped apart

Your journey is not made alone

But isolation dark and grown

Knaws at your peace and stirs black fear

I am not able to stay near

They say this is not personal

They say we should be very proud 

They say to focus all our will

On appreciating time allowed

Sometimes you realise the game

Sometimes you shrug away the pain

Sometimes you want the clock to stop

Sometimes you smile and break me up

I want to celebrate your life

And tell you everything will be alright

I want to stroke away anxiety
And bring you restful, gentle days

They say this is not personal

They say we should be very proud 

They say to focus all our will

On appreciating time allowed
