Music

Wistful

How can simplicity be so full

Thrown u

Across the floor

Can't remember a moment of passion

You were not there

Always more to learn

To listen

More deeply

Fall In love forever

Wrote u off

Haunted me

Like a melody from the god

of another star

With One Note

Knowing that I could

with one rich breath...and courage,

make a note

shimmery as the sunglazed sea

high as holiest heaven

and as beautiful as a tempest

to shake life;

stop life dead

in

its

tracks

remind you,

shock you into the innocence

of elemental beauty,

freeze you all

sonically breeze you

ironic.

one note,

trained and measured

worth all the wine in water-

I stand here;

No longer awaiting your permission.

Knowingly,

I take my footing,

Breathe...

(and)

Broken Gold Glass

Finding broken gold glass still

Feels like magic now

Memories

of the secret places I've kept my heart

which only he truly knows

Enchased upon my lungs a ruby script

and spun vermillion promises

carried upon every note

a name inscribing, curves around me cursively

his stamp stomping out old orange fires

forging new bluer infernos

My world shattered into golden glass

Beautiful and perfect the sound of this destruction

Diamond heart breaking apart into the rainbows that held it together

Streaming colors

Pure

Now free to find you

And my words;

My words flowed like lava

Melting you like snow beneath fire

Crawling hotly over the lovely unsaid terrain

Violet night broke open

Revealing new stars

to wish upon

clouds

cinders of smashed silver

and atoms of gold

rolled over

leaving

you

&

i

Grand Central

The city crawls with wheels; itself moves beneath you

Serpents two blocks long breathe people in

Sing their same song- A, E no I but try 3

And emerge, eyes shut, to the light of a night sun

to cool and sleep but keeps it secret

because she says she never sleeps

She found me there at the corner

Standing still on the moving streets of a breathing beast

Holding tight to shifting letters and lines

Numbers like vines

Swing me downtown to bring me up

To meet pigeon swagger keeping the beat

Rhythmically I listen for love in the glistening noise and

constancy of feet-

A needle in a 'Hey'stack

Small Sure True

A glint of pure you illumes a spire

A scortch of fire

And I'm inspired

To Flight

here beneath shadows buildings cast

And statues cast upon buildings

In shadows I cast my own light

And the marble lady just told me

That beauty is old yet ever new

So I throw glitter in the street

In celebration of you

Eyes

Yes we are wise

beyond our eyes

or what they can see

they believe what will be

and have no fear

of what is written

Me, I grasp you

inch by inch

take you in

entirely, you soak me up

feel me from the

sweetened core

Master of my Queendom

but your eyes

tell no lies

though your mind

veils your heart in

slowness

your eyes have rushed inside

now there's nowhere I can hide

not seeing you from within.

Singing Blue

Let me save you some time

Cover myself in the blues

and sing

Oh no baby

Oh yes you will learn

Learn how to play me

To play with me

because you hurt me with jazz

how could we not have words?

Oh no baby

Oh yes

I will teach you

Teach you to play

and no amount of jazz can save you now.
