will
  beat
clipped wings
'til
  droplets begin
filling
silent
  ruby pools  
with fluttering desires  
to fly free & sing
The cage door has been left open,
just in case
...you feel it beat,
does your little bird sing?

She sits within the dusty corners, of
a mind she cannot leave; Instinctively knowing all,
as each breeze stays...  
unfelt.

Chaining the muse to his glass desk.
The poet can write
with ease.

Deft fingers un-stitch
antique silver;
Twinning his soul...

Letting passion
ignite,
as essence flows

on reeds
[magnus
opus]


which bloom,
in each wound
laid bare;

As whispers
escape
her shade.

Why? In Oceans' seven ~
with companies of angel fish aplenty; Do we swim,
to kiss the soup of shark...

He sits silently
watching; Waiting, for ******
bones, like a true Troll.

Standing
with nothing - there is still
so much more
to give

Alone
sits easy,
with toes dipped, in
four leaved
clover.

We
absolve
ourselves with the
tenacious honesty
of tomorrows'
sunrise

Brazen,
underneath starlit skies."Observe;
We too, have died before."

Bodies
alight, with heavenly fires;
Intense, passions
igniting
pure reactions.

Join
and part
each atom of self
to allow
flow.

As
saline spills,
filling emptiness
with oceans,
across
arid plains.

One
single flower
blooming, silently, in decoration
     of soulful beauty        
  
Whisper,
  our riddling
faintly defined
shadows
stuck
   to    
                                            missing       pieces.                                            

                          Together                     ­     
                               in needs ...                          
                                                            [of yours, or, mine]     
  **We... are here
... & I do believe x10, beats the current record, lol :)

Perhaps... Each time you've laid down your head;
Silently contemplating, the restlessness of consequence
