Gentle as a dove gliding through the clouds
I am at a loss for words though here I am  
Timeless as music wafting through thin air
ageless as the stars that shine above you.  
Soft as a kiss that has lost its will to speak,  
I am an Angel, that once was yours to keep;

There between the firmament of heaven
lays  the truth of who I used to be to you !  
Semi-liquid love unspoken, ... I am starved
for yesterdays embrace that once was mine.
Forbearing light keep me steady as a breeze,    
while I lay a silent kiss, upon his cheek ...    

I'll glide into his dreams a glistening vision,  
clothed in white, like a ghostly apparition !

big rat, bigger cat
who eats
who runs

who makes the rules

big rat, bigger cat.

the rat has sharp teeth,
sits on a throne of broken bones,
stares through eyes of shattered glass,
no future
no past.

who s first,
who s last,

the rat's heart
loosely wrapped
barbed wire

who s first
who s fast

big rat, bigger cat

but King Rat has dreams,
wants a kingdom

an alley chat

the cat asks, meow?

snakes in the garden of eden?
wolves in suits?
crows on the telephone wire?

every throne
every king
a reckoning

alley chat, alley cat,
the cat gives, a wink.

deep and wide,
the cat smiles the gate,

"trust me."

My love of the morning
my love dressed in dawn
My love early risen
and risen, so still
My love whom only
the noonday could ****

My love of an hour
my love in the dust
My love who only
does what she must
with a folded lily in folded hands
my love whom the afternoon reprimands

My love of the dusk
my love of the evening
My love barely listening
my love barely breathing
Who is my love whose love only leaves her
and lingers in shadows where no one receives her

My love of the night
who desires the moon
and the stars all gleaming
through tired trees leaning
My love of the earth, my love of the grave
my love of the sky, the blaze, the wave.
