Just Words
when doors open to what
was is may be all the same
decades hence one will read
words said thoughts held here
and there will be again in mind
what body felt heart desired
a dream lived once upon a time
when anguish was just a word
love unrequited just a story
someone told to ease the heart
that feels the scar left from break
just a song to sing along with
some soul some blues a hymn
to love that had a name
Toward That
logic is fool's gold
aglitter with promise
mind in 2 + 2 mundane
circumscribed routine
anathema to creativity
deeper than measure
past the lines that lie
mine the veins of diamond
kaleidoscope words relecting
the colors of change in seasons
possibilities exploring like rain
the hidden places beyond where
knowing is pointing
toward that
A Saturzen Day
discontent falls from nowhere
a sense that nothing matters
observe how the light changes
the glow on things less
all the wheels in pause
breathe it say it away
a bubble merely
in the foam of consciousness
