take it or leave it

it's nothing - no
big deal.
you can not take
all i've said or written
to heart even if it came from
inside mine.
my intensity is an internal light
not to be taken for granted.
these words are carefree and light
but do not take them lightly.
I am not afraid to commit to common record
my thoughts, ideas, insipid inspirations
declarations of This or That or Love or Truth
or Beauty or Him or Her or Them or Those
or These Things that come from
Wherever They Come From.
I make no promises.
I make no apologies.

ocean edge

sometimes i forget
that you did not ask
for my love
my body
my everything possible
these i reluctantly offered to you
perfect treasures in my palm
i shyly proffered with eyes downcast
not sure you would recognize their worth...
you took me by my other hand
and led me to the oceans edge
we watched herons entwined
and listened to the natural harmonies
of life and i loved.

singing.

singing.
feeling my jaws and mouth open
lips manipulating and dancing with tongue
together with my chest
feel it in my chest
release
healing powers
the marvel of the union
mind body soul
soulfully
i sing.

happy birthday, and night.

yesterday i was the one for you
today i am your favorite.
sometimes i'm too much trouble when i don't suit your plans.
i am not a part of your plan
i have and Am my own blueprint.
yesterday you had the time
today i am not worth it.
what i do not understand is your surprise
when i withdraw the Love Light in my eyes
what are you hiding
i ask?
you squirrel and jitter away
claiming you want Truth
but you are afraid of it.

Today it is your birthday.
Today, is it worth it?
