Holograph clouds

hang in a

blue riband sky

splintered memories

scudding fly

clear cobalt mind

troubled by

those left behind

cogitating

precipitating

Indian summers

that never come

loves lived and lost

but never won

twilight transcends

stargazing nights

Juliet’s blight

heartbreak

crowns

the

air

Even when…

you’re with her,

she’s all alone.

Even when…

you dream of her,

she’s gone.

Even when…

you kiss her,

you’re not the one.

The nest a cold tomb,

my heavy heart a hollow stone,

my chicks have all flown.

Slowly, silently,

now the moon,

eclipses all but you,

reclining in serendipity’s arms,

as diamonds glinting

eyes of stars,

fledglings nesting

in my heart,

and nought can

sever souls

apart

Leave

the Kings in their Kingdoms

and the Emperors in their Empires

Bring

the Poets and their portents

to the realms of desire

Scorn prophetic Prophets

with their commanding ire

Sing

jubilation for the mundane Messiah

and courting Celebrity

Mankind misfires

Slowly, slowly, creeps the dawn,

with monstrous shapes,

and shifting form,

‘tween death and sleep,

my soul doeth lie,

this never world,

where hope does die.

Alas my sense,

it leaves me cold,

splintered spine,

as I’ve grown old

and weary of

this mortal world,

a waiting hell,

backdrop

unfurled.

The antidote

to death

is sleep –

where

Daemons

sneer, and

angels

weep.

I know my flaws,

so, hold your tongue,

do not hector,

at my wrongs.

I am aware,

my gentle meekness,

can be mistook,

as greatest weakness.

Peck at me,

just like a worm,

but watch your back,

as tables turn.

What you give out,

receive thrice fold,

this old folk lore,

has been foretold.

Spider on the ceiling,

I wonder how you’re feeling,

is the world

down-side up for you,

and tell me are you reeling?
