Sweet Bird

Out on some borderline
Some mark of inbetween
I lay down golden-in time
And woke up vanishing
Sweet bird you are
Briefer than a falling star
All these vain promises on beauty jars
Somewhere with your wings on time
You must be laughing
Behind our eyes
Calendars of our lives
Circled with compromise
Sweet bird of time and change
You must be laughing
Up on your feathers laughing
Golden in time
Cities under the sand
Power, ideals and beauty
Fading in everyones hand
Give me some time
I feel like Im losing mine
Out here on this horizon line
With the earth spinning
And the sky forever rushing
No one knows
They can never get that close
Guesses at most
Guesses based on what each set of time and change is touching
Guesses based on what each set of time and change is touching
Guesses based on what each set of time and change is touching

Estimating Danger

Guesses are correct according to the saints,
Answers are solved this way, from complaints.

Why do saints question and interrogate us?
Is it due to being dangerous?

On the boats of danger we float, dividing
Like the cells that originated us, accumulating.

Many songs of danger and many views are gained,
Only the leaders of religion can be bloodstained.

These guesses are called estimations of worth,
Where there is commotion there is earth.

By the Wise

Guesses are made perfectly by the wise,
Intrepid adventurers cancel our life
For though thinkers are also thought of,
My guess is also the same perfection.

Guests of some knowledge are bedded in these chambers,
Within those familiar works are the church relics;
We thought and thought over the real church,
Bent on thinking wisely like the guesses of perfection.

Churches stand tall for daily consumption,
Opening their gates once a day, once a night,
Their relief is staggering on the soul,
As you might pray and sleep with the right thoughts.

Guesses

Which of my
Poems…
Are for you?
Now, you'll
Never know.

There was
A time, I
Used to
Tell you.
Now, only
I'll know…

No harm
In giving
It a go…
Keep
Wobbling
Your
Guesses,
Like a
Yo-Yo ;)

The New Wild West

You see the ghosts of the buffalo
Moving both fierce and slow
Like glittering prophesies
On the edge of the horizon

As you drive glittering highways
And beaten-up by-ways
That straddle and girdle
A great and many-faced nation

There are lambs in the ghettos
Who worship their Gapettos
Believing in

Recorded

Ian Smith's Rhodesia,
Robert Mugabe's Zimbabwe,
Idi Amin's Uganda,
Do not neglect the prophesies;
For we will surely pay for our sins,
While we live on this earth alive of dead.
Hanging on the traditions,
Pray without ceasing and rejoice always;
But remember that,
Our sins are recorded in heaven.

What Is Seen

a fly
strolls a realm
just on the other
side of light


only silhouettes
guesses thrills
motion so
slight framed in
window gray


in love with
small things
keep what
is seen where
hides the wind
