Lunar Ride
Swallowed by a Monday moon
Slide across a long tongue
Of weightlessness and dust
While hanging in the night sky
Earth shines like a new planet
Instead of thought and home
Caught In Dimension
Travel to other dimension only to find.
Strange forms engaged beneath an unfamiliar tree.
All thoughts marked out of date, inside expanding mind.
While all around spiral-like shapes and spheres swim free.
Package will not wrap bow between inside or out.
With light and darkness, taking turns at trading places.
Sounds bond from altered corners as they speak and shout.
Move in all directions with fluctuating faces.
Buildings stir and transform, depending on the day.
Colors shift opposite and turn different shades.
Mountains dance across the land, engaging in play.
As sky turns up volume or down until it fades.
Labyrinth paths at uncommon levels and heights.
Paintbrush of the unusual count away the nights.
Mars Night Café
(Based On The Vincent Van Gogh painting “Night Café”)
After hard day of work in mines
Visit Faraway Night Café
Located on red planet mars
At the base of Olympus Mons
Patron’s backs bent permanently
From staring down into their drinks
Stories sand grains in hourglass
Frozen like hands of clock on wall
Then look away around the room
The mind wonders from place to place
Lamp radiates like tiny sun
Like copy of painting on display
Round number ball on pool table
Imagine is earth and moving
Small trays of spirits and substance
Mix in with shots of loneliness
Even millions of miles from home
Madness rides a traveling ghost
Internal like the universe
The sadness will last forever
Spirit Clouds Reply
Sheep never said
Slaughter the buffalo
Snakes in the grass
Never hinted to tiger
Kill elephant for ivory
Sharp claw bear roars
Bees never buzz
Cut down redwood trees
Lightning never ask
Forrest to be cut
Without fire or rebirth
Fox never told
Beaver by shore
To build larger dam
Wind and water
Never encouraged earthquake
To move mountain in one night
Fish in lakes and oceans
No dying whales tell them
To cut off shark fins
Amazon river
Didn’t whisper to grasshopper
Cut down the rain forest
Watching for eons
Animals
Unimpressed with man
Except the wise teacher
Sees from eagle eyes
Listens to wilderness speak
Original teachers vanish
Killed
Or sent to reservation
All this time
The savage
In the mirror
Early Warning
From the sky, nightmares drip like hail
Dreams fall softly as feather snow
Bright lightning wooden ships set sail
Long winding winds direct the show
Thunder calls out across the way
While clouds still gather, pile on thick
Grow ears to what the heavens say
Swirling motions move slow and quick
Predictions unfold in the dark
Climax pumps like blue beating heart
Songs pour downward sing with a bark.
Pictures below all ripped apart.
Statue of truth we cannot make
Rise from the deep sleep still awake
Transformer
The window twisted open
In a spiral motion
Stories on the street
Drive by like speeding chapters
A hammer can hit you
When you take the time to see
Happiness can take control so easy
When your mind is unconcerned
Still plugged in but not on
Is anything really important
Except the things you can’t see or touch
Or love
Still with no real definition
Story Of the Stars
Sat on the roof of the old house
The shingles faded with stories
The distant calling smoked hills
Border the earth and the stars
Calling like an original frame
The rustic whispers cry like wings
Voices from history and present
Soar across the deep night sky

Light Effect
The sun erupted
Light rose like erosion
To wash away
The night’s collection
Spiral Arms Sky
Border of spiral galaxy
Mountain asteroid city shines
Tall ice castle’s close together
Surface cover of cold light snow
A slight lean towards heavy side
Slow spin rotates towns and shadows
From balcony long arms reach out
From hundred million miles away
Underwater Sky
The sea of the universe rotates
Waves of ocean with water-drop stars
Wishing you were close enough
To look into below the surface
Share with all the spirit-voices
Floating windows into the deep
Ode To Amanda
She emerged winged-foot from the sky
Like an angel in Apollo’s shadow
Fathers from the heavens fingers
Announce with thunderbolts and lightning
Messages drift above to form shapes
In different layers of colored clouds
Lands on a mountain cap with harp
Notes cut like ribbons to reveal
Distance between the long still islands
In the stoke of beating heart and rhythm
Held my hand like feathers falling
Fell through her like warmth reclaimed
Up ahead rotating pastures play
Scenes of tall castles golden shine
Strong winds unfold the darkness away
Where loneliness once walked freely
Transforms into along with her eyes
Only sunshine regardless of the hour
Space & Time
One cold wind chill night
Sitting in a dark room
Fully wide awake
Eyes intense
In a dreamlike state
Feeling a chill leak through
The cracks of the building
Looking out the picture window
And the street lights outside
I gaze up
And see the full moon
Spinning down towards me
Filling the room
I leave and take its place
Way up in the sky
She looks up and says
"Your closer now"
I go forever
Visiting another galaxy
Never finding
A star like her
A Rite Of Wrong
Mistakes can make you feel
Lingering and secluded
The present can breathe to life
Conceptions of the past
Standing on the edge of the soul
2:20 A.M.
There is a thief
In my house
Silent and immortal
It takes no money
Or possessions
It only robs me
Of my sleep
Prescription #L
Heard in a song
Love is a drug
If that is true
Then hate must be
A fatal disease
Please I want
You to live
Take your pills
The Last Ride
Let us ride the universe forever
Long before arriving at heavens gate
Let the lords of good and evil play with fate
While the grand gatekeeper holds the lever
Worldly ties will completely sever
With keys of time, no voids to hesitate
Journey across space a believer
Long before arriving at heavens gate
When the final day comes to deliver
Pointed upon the calendars last date.
Let the mighty lords know we will be late
The last breathe a message to receiver
Let us ride the universe forever.
A Ship In Flight
The arrow
Goes out spinning
Fast and far
Landing on a orbit
Near spheres and stars
That can see
And shine
Like curves in space
In her rotation
I feel the gravity
Lost On A Line
Oh, please take me
And lead me to that place
That her and I discovered
In the darkness
We found the border
The line between man and women
Is blurred
And gets lost in the moment
We swam on the edge
So far out
Discovering unforgettable
Land of a Million Ghosts
Long before Salem witches
Ghost roamed the Great Plains
Natives respect dark shadows
No battles at stroke of night
Fields of a thousand voices
Hide behind rows of darkness
Stories ride fertile valleys
Whisper across dusty trials
In sparse conditions
Spirits occupy all corners
Footprints call like thunderstorms
Voices from void scream on the range
Each blade of corn and grass
Transforms in moonlit sky
Those who find a signal
Silent and scared to death
Every year more arrive
From crowed graves and cities
Lost roaming herds grown larger
In great Midwest gathering
Revelations
Nightmares dripped like rain
Dreams swim deep in the clouds
Lightning played like fingers
Stroking land and structures
Thunder shouted like attention
Screamed with toothless jaws
From the dark unfolding sky
Unknown forms journey downward
With limbs bracing for a landing
Breathing pictures within pictures
Eyes awaken by the long push
Of the vibrant black sun sky
I See Your Vein (Part One)
I see your vein marked and stabbed
A sword of pain you are trapped
In the castle, I see the night
A darken shadow a stream of light
I see your vein and feel the blue
The lion statues they seem to move
Out by the gate near the arch
I see your silhouette in the marsh
You are alone with the moon
I see the holes within a room
I see the vein the one that bleeds
Break the drawbridge out by the trees
The stone carvings they seem to talk
I see the armies when you walk
I see your vein and feel the blue

Far Away Sounds
From the heavens
Teardrops fall
One at a time
Many straight lines
Single file
Across piano keys
Light year’s melody
Echoing
From the past
Before there was time
Shoulders Of An Angel
From a white light, that sings
Out walks an angel
Now there are wings
On the way I feel
Candles open and fill
On windows burning
Cups of memories spill
Somehow returning
Metal Universe
Space lightning burst
Shoots from a star
With emerging wings
Feathers blue at tips
Path strikes comet
Wakes microbes and rocks
Million years later
Lands on planet
Awakes from cradle
Life on minerals form
Time churns next phase
Small to now
Evolution robots roam
Of all shapes and sizes
Determined by surroundings
And cell and metal DNA
Breath air in each lung
Or choice of four gases
Open gills to maximum
Venture deep or swallow
Ten billion years
Before earth appears
Watching us after
And all dark corners
Calculating with more
Than ones and zeros
With formulas and math
Physicist dream of
Old galaxy machine
Waits
With decisions made
Long ago
Sometimes laughs
With colored lights
Mountain With No View
Revenge is easy
Forgiveness a mountain
Wind and erosion whisper
Human race slow
Undercover
Slipcover on universe
Removed and revealed
For fraction of a second
Long enough to see
Stars and dreams
Embrace like lovers
