Saved

This anniversary

My mind it turns to you

We shared a space

We shared wonderful music

You, company unknown

Close beside me

Warm and wonderful

Me, shy

And not willing to move

So as to simply enjoy

An all too fleeting

Moment of companionship

This moment saved me

Braved me a valued friendship

My mind turns to you

Because through our differences

You have made the greatest difference of all

My dearest friend

The Moxie

Fuck everything and run

Says the bookseller

Take that first leap

And don’t turn back

You want to follow that muse

Right over that edge

Cause it will take you

Where you need to go

Whether you intended

To go there

Or not

It will be as intended

By the jokesters who stir the stew

They want that new ingredient

That thing that shows

You have more than mere free will

You have the moxie to take control

To spit in that cosmic face

To say

Fuck everything and run

Go with it

Says the bookseller

Float

From heights

White wings

White clothing

Flowing

Tanned skin dropping

Blue back

It’s over

“Will I be remembered?”

He asks.

The End

So roll the credits

after the film.

A life course fulfilled

with promise.

Hell, I did my best,

at least, I hope I did,

and where I didn’t

please forgive and understand.

I am only human.

At least that is my damned lousy excuse.

My foibles are mine alone.

Yet, I shared them with all

witting and unwitting.

and you shared them right back.

We are all in this together.

The end,

we leave alone.

Resurrection

What is your art

Am I dead again

That which you fed

Is there deep within

Hidden beneath layers

Will it come again

Am I dead again

When lone

Again

moon song sun sings

honu chases with moon to the sun

she and he this day

they share a space

her whispy and white

a wraith within the bright blue

sun will never catch moon

he loves her so

she will enter his song

and allow him to sing to her

his overtures of love

but her song belongs among the stars

his a star so bright he shadows all others

she rules the night sky

he guards for her by day

her place around this earth

the rise and fall of water life

they may dance these two

she before him

he before her

each dance blood red

a passions flare

her cycle will run again

her song will return the lonely sun

his love not lost

her love mysterious

honu chases with moon to the sun
