i'm in the driver's seat and now
the leaves are every colour
road anthesis diegesis
burgeons into summer
i'm up there on the peak
and i am down there in the prison
i make my recollections here
for someone who will listen

try to reconcile a future to grow into
to hold you in the spring and then to stand alone in winter
memory of descent is ringing, wraps around in gusts of water
finds me smaller in the tower, looking over creek and quota
recollection of something distant
determination of travellers at dawn
something that i don't dare climb to see
something vitreous spends time cooling down
don't you lose your head now
don't you stare back from the ocean
to watch your body mourning
watch your shoulders burning in the sun
for no one
backing off the untouched dune a rolling field of fingers
blows to picture arbitrary nature of my interest
a casuarina bowing
bending in the salt and swelter
whispering to no one near it
wishing just to come much closer
time consolidating a person i grow into
wounds and wisdoms, visions
and the keepsakes you take with you
don't you lose your head now
for no one

in your domain i become a dull knife
i can hardly bear to feel the time pass
waiting here and cursing at the ceiling
and as sure as killing
do you know you're taking my life
trickles blazing hot and silent
glass in arches panes in rows
sunlight slipping down to sear me
where i languish down below
am i a bad, bad seed?
i do yet carry every season's yield in me
on fate's transcendent bounty roams the lurid louse
let me out
let me out
let me out of the greenhouse
let me out
let me out
let me out of the greenhouse

perennial person
enjoying a smaller world
enjoying a designed comfort
performing a role
an annual soul
breaking the soil
burgeons whole
when august comes to blows
a fleeting tone
aeolephone
an ocean harp
a pearly sea
a burning coal
a perennial person
an annual soul

i'm opening with a knife
letters from your afterlife
it opens me and not much like a flower
spilling out the mystery of my strife
the dirt in my middle is dark and alive
pour it out thickly in rows to grow chives
finish and leave here, my waters will rise
recall my expression, i won't ask you twice
it seems when i call for you someone else shows
and recollection fails for it's not fair to do so
soul changes, moon phases, the ocean decreases
birthday cake for one in so many pieces
the dirt in my middle is dark and alive
out on the nearshore i wait on the tide
despite the world's willing, my waters will rise
recall my expression, i won't ask you twice

yours and my peculiar predilections
for moody skies and morning sun subdued
the question of the quiet and the quantum
the world in lull that finds itself renewed
pulling up a blanket just to whisper
until the moon/noon pervades to filter through
caught between your fingers all the secrets of my soul
that still drifts in the overcast with you
/
i can hear the waves from in my bedroom
and in the hush of night i hear them speak
relate the ebb and brim and silver slivers wearing thin
and tides that carve upon the world a cry of grief
the place where you have gone i cannot follow
and so is acquiescing overdue
but i cant wake my heart that wants for holding
that still drifts in the overcast with you

apotheosis

|
the furious beryl foot of canis major
calls its proud approach into my crater
my brand new soul that fell to earth all over
was born to break the surface of the water
and through my very own apotheosis
perennial person pronounced apoptosis
the silver straits that looked upon me kindly
will send a beam of starlight to remind me
i can do it all
i design the future
more than anything, i desire the future
liminal being
my transmutation
a constellation
grief and elation
every expression
willing admission
an admonition
for those who listen
