DreaMs

Returning to posturing

Open my eyes

First light before darkness overtakes

Fear

I have dreams

or do they have me?

sleep

We are united

Needed for life

Wake as a baby

screaming to be fed

Lost in wonder

Alas, Fear

No shoes

No clothes

No control

Cold sweat

Confusing images providing the day's mantra

A dream for the waking

I take with me

And it takes me

Natural Science

Born to a garden

A complete society

Soon the margins entice my core

Where to fit

Ever feeling unfit

Words, fresh ghosts take up residence

In my mind

Get me out of here, can't wait until the age arrives

To flee

Be myself

Alas, the ghosts continue speaking guidance

Caught in a rip tide unseen

Exploding in my viens, heart breaking

Silently, that's a good boy

It's my turn to drive

Stay between the lines

Driven to the edge

Of a deep dark hole

Soon the garden is lost, forever a shadow

The universe ahead, terrifying light

Compelling

Impaled on the horns of innocence refusing to die

Ah, my soul revealed, needing care

Much care

Born to a new reality

Yet to be complete, yet complete

Needing me, yet will live on with the pain of my absense, my lack

Never love without pain

Embrace the ghosts

Because the light knows me

Set me free to be disturbed

Love remains

Goodbye Kansas

Independence over-rated

Thunder, lightening, wind tight swirls leave the fertile landscape as the sea shore

Never the same, yet rhythms remain

Put on your shoes dear

We're heading to the coast

Good bye everything

I gave my best to the house dealer

Who could only really let you down

Now the road less traveled

Cousins needing just as much as me

Still caught silent, cuffed and handed unseen chains

Daily

I'll pull the car around

Put your troubles in the back

We'll head for the coast

And hope for the best

Telling secrets we don't even know

Roles

Together again, decades holding memory

Should I be as an old photo

Reality could be insane

Small talk killing intimacy

With relatives

Part of the same clay

What, are we hiding?

This is my role, given from my youth

Forever in two worlds, at least

Passage not considered, alas missed

Maybe this is the generation

resist, i can learn to get along
with all the things i can't explain

That will break the invisable Grip

Lookout for that which lies beneath

And the margins

A desert road straight to the soul

my Role?

Horizon

Where heaven kisses the landscape

Waiting a lifetime

Anticipating a humble glimpse

Their words resonant, rhythmic touch of the soul

Shared voices offering a toast

Drinking in the spirit

The world is love and life on deep

Maybe as the sky is wide

Synchronous souls mate

Space bounded

Love flowing

Heaven
