Flying
I was
knee deep in mud
And everyone else too
I looked above
Saw others who flew.
I climbed up to see
Looked around and saw
A man on stilts
trudging through the raw.
I hung on a glider
And pushed off the ledge
I slid along the rail
And hit the man full-fledged.
He fell straight back
splashed flat in the ground
And I woke up
to an odd sound.
I was laughing...
...laughing...laughing
...in my sleep!

God, Time Flies
I left
the radio on
The
toast got burnt
My
light burnt out.
I drank
too many sodas
Watched
too many aquariums
Ate
too much sushi.
Moderate.
Or
time flies.
Speak
too much.
Even
questions break the camel's back.

Some Guy
You
wore sunglasses like Tom Cruise
Waiting and watching
Impatient and paranoid.
I tried
to hide, below a windowsill.
Acted Like nothing was happening.
Undiscovered.
A breathe
of relief.
Not caught, just spied
But our pose
had lied...
What
are these dreams?
Why some guy?
I never would cheat
Never have
Never will
Why
did I feel so guilty?
Some part of me indulges
On semi-sweet morsels
of chocalate that melts
No matter where it is...

Lost
I don't
think I'm going
Anywhere to you
I see patterns shifting
I ask if I'm outside
I laugh
"Am I outside?"
I whisper suspiciously,
"I'm outside?"
And
you just pull my arm
And I keep laughing
you say, shhh...
I hit your arm
The
night is so clear
When it's imagined
no clouds this time
I can't
help laughing
Help me, I'm desperate.

Spirit
Gold stars dangle
from sable darkness,
filigree moon stares listlessly at the world,
one huge eye noting progress and failure of mankind.
But somewhere bubbles come from hidden places,
unexpected happiness occurs,
my spirit flies all night trying to alight at one place.

There
You Go
I walked
along the stream
Where you said to meet
I walked along without you
was wandering
Without You
Stubbed
my toe upon a rock
I kicked it into the water
what was I to do
Couldn't even imagine
Walked
at least a mile
then looked at my feet
I wore your dusty shoes
it made me stop
How easy
it was to walk
all this time
i realized...

Mountain
Maybe
I hit the edge
of the beginning of
MountainMontainMountain
I thought I'd see
the horizon
but it's snow
snow
snow
A golden
brown back
in the cold powdered ice
My world hasn't felt so
divine
Just stay here, I whisper
There's
nothing more to see...
I've seen it all
And I'm still staying...
oh, love

Dreams
If there was ever
a dream
where my flesh didn't sing
where my eyes didn't
see
if there was ever a dream
where my heart didn't stop
where I lost touch with a touch
if there was ever
a dream
where I didn't hear leaves blow
where I took pity on you for loving me
where would i dream
where would i begin
where would i end?
i whisper past
shhh....
don't believe a word
i say
i wake it all up.

"Sleep
that knits up the ravelled sleeve of care,
The death of each day's life...
sore labor's bath,
Balm of hurt minds,...
great nature's second course,
Chief nourisher in life's feast."
~William
Shakespeare
