fractured pieces lying there
curling in fragility
broken dreams and single tear
shattering humility
longing for the touch
of the magic lost
needing it so much
however dear the cost

Finding peace within the maelstrom
Is never an easy task
Churning spilling waters rise..and fall
Twisting and turning and
Spinning my reality
Til up is down
Down is up and
Everything is just a quaking blur

To ride the edges of the whirlpool
Spinning at incredible speeds
Beyond your control
How serene that centre
That slowly draws you in
Mesmerising stillness
Creeps within
And takes you over

Slowly you find yourself drawn
Ever inward
Spinning now at half the knots you were
Relief in sight
You sigh

And as you sit exposed
No longer fighting the waves
Motionless
And helpless
All reactions lulled
And gone

Suddenly the edge is there
And instead of the centre
That peace you sought
The vortex

That other spinning churning hell
Licks its lips
And takes you in

Downward you spiral
Trapped by a spinning wall

Sky becoming a blur
And even the black ink of hell
You so despised so short a time ago
Would be a welcome sight

But downwards
Ever downwards
...you hurl

[journey to hell?]

maelstrom built on burning words
how cold the flames dark heat
in gluttony it draws you in
then belches; quite replete
malevolently thankful
it waits another chance
Baron smiles at lovers lost
then leads the final dance

I've seen you dancing

Actually I've seen most bits of you
*blush*

Have FUN dragon
Smiling looks good on you :)

Oh and I was actually crying...or zoning....or something when that maelstrom one was written. You know how it goes. You dont disturb...but just follow it through.

Yeah. You know.

Night from here

Oops. No there was another one that snuck through.

Can you hold the flame in fingertips
And yet not bruise its charm?
Can you grasp the light and hide it
Fisted hand at end of arm?

Can you catch a simple butterfly
And yet not bring it doom
Can you hold a living flame
And in your heart...make room?

Can you grasp the flame alive
And keep it burning bright
Or would you lock it in a box
And keep it for one night?

And would the flame survive in there
Or simply be snuffed out
And when you opened up the box
Feel cheated, scream and shout

Some say the flame cannot be held
I know...that its not true
Takes courage (and a pinch of salt)

I pass the flame....to you

Did you forget how Dragons love the flame???

I gladly will accept this flame
and blaze in colours bright
on Dragons wings where nature sings
I go now in delight
..
.
Silence bled through emptiness
in prehistoric solitude
Kimberley from cliff to sea
offering no platitudes
Colours burst to meet the sun
chasms rainbow bright
Murky waters discontent
shimmers into sight
Crocodile with toothy smile
master under there
Jabiru's rough voice rings true
chaotic in the air
Graceful erne lets senses burn
in thermal high now soaring
I forget the city stress
where football crowds are roaring
..

cool
really really cool

dragons love flames huh?
dragons are the creators of original fire
never to be quenched
never to be doused
for it lives within us...


Have a good time up there
We're all gonna die one day
Dont waste a moment

What is death; another page
a memory recalling
broken dreams often seem
more hurtful in the falling
beyond that wholesome mystery
the burnings in the turning
another death; another life
raw yearning offers learning

voyages to nothingness
where nothingness is all
other lives forever drive
but seldom hear the call

Swan Song

The last goodbye
Has a mournful sound
Like the wave of departing wings

Who softly speak
Cross a whispering sky

Who knows what tomorrow brings.....

Bye Salty

Sichuan lies there bleeding
where braided rivers flow
Oh Chendu I grieve for you
as only I can know

A Morn with tears
another day to face the fears
Tragedy in my heart
Knowing you will feel the warmth
that is very well deserved
I shall watch the sunrise
as you walk in the moonlight of GoodBye
It is never over
your love and caring will linger
if only as a grand memory warming me!!...........

Two brothers lived near a garden
One morning they found a wonderful sapling there
A sapling like few had ever seen
They were overjoyed and watched it grow
Then came a storm and the sapling was damaged
Although they loved the sapling they argued over the best way to treat it
While they argued the sapling died

Who was right or wrong doesn't matter
What matters is that the sapling died

Damage happens
Surviving damage is hard
there are no guidebooks
self help books
make money for their authors
just breathe
breathe again
and embrace life

For me survival was special people
and breathing
deep...long..again and again
for three long years
it does get better!

Sapling the roots deeper
getting better!!

Understandings of just somethings
Happening's, Beginning's and Endings
Forever living and breathing
I'll walk of wounded knee
As continuing to follow thee!!

Calm the winds will blow
so the sapling's roots may begin to grow, deeper!!..........

A single flame flickers in the darkness




Enough to light your way
enough to see
enough to guide
enough to erase total darkness
enough to see the end of the tunnel

Two flames flicker in the darkness
So far apart
But bringing light

( A peom inspired by my own words I just posted in the religious/supernatural forums)

For all I say...
for all I see...
With all my heart do I believe?
"Nay!"
I say
'Tis beyond more than that
My every fiber...muscle and bone
Every whim of a thought
Soul and all within still unknown
From one step to another shall it all proceed...
Whether or not I choose to believe.
A simple choice...that's all it truly is...
Do I choose to fade away or shall I choose to live?

Welcome Kemos


keeping promises unbound
I stagger into knowing truth
dark solutions often found
leaving but one absolute
In the fadings rearranging
no compartments waiting
forever futures changing
within my partaking
Choice lies there unfettered
no chains are binding me
Sometimes---sorely battered
I curse this destiny

Sometimes the masks of memory slip

A thousand miles from yesterday
mere centuries of course
a drop of falling water rose
to shatter there upon the floor
within forgotten memory
futures wept so long ago
of faded dying history
once more in embryo

In the hour of the wolf
that half light of shimmering mayhem
when brightness dies so quickly
others grace the world of men

Silence moved when carcajou
replete with hungers ventured
A feral scent the twilight rent
as killing field was entered
Death had come; no beating drum
nor lonely piper played the score
old black bear shook in fear
and fled across the forest floor
For carcajou smelt caribou
bloodlust now awaking
shadows creep with jaws that leap
A fawn that thirst is slaking


Carcajou; Glutton; Wolverine; FjellfrÀs; Jarfr
One of the few creatures I admire but have not yet seen
Not in some cage
But out in their territory
For they have no fear of man or beast
yet they are so small
Wrapped in ancient superstition
like goblins frozen in misty larceny
they simply "are"

^^ and its the moon that pulls her


the smell of charcoal
familiar and somehow comforting
greets my senses

warmth reaching out with
blunted fingertips
reaching into places
that have never seen the sun

filling barren crevaces
with an almost forgotten softness
born again....on this
a winters morn

a figure
kneeling before the fire
feet crossed behind her
one toe pointed in

simply gazes
at the flames
entranced
by the dance within

then slowly bending forward
gently she blows

then giggles at the sparks that are rising one by one

floating for a fleeting moment
skyward

p'raps seeking the bubbles
...that once before
paved the way

to heaven


is it the fire that makes her eyes seem so to shine ?

or is it the memory of a time
not so long ago
....when colored magic
........danced beneath a splendid moon
