Star dancers
Falling in and out of orbit
Light as distance
Darkness as proximity
To source
Like furnace
Where warmth is felt
Not seen
Perforated at the boundary's edge
We all tear differently 
When we part
​
Here is where
The self is met
The red hue of Is
Visible with closed eyes
Relieves the coldness of space
And in this darkness
Once more
The warmth is felt
The angles and turns 
The shapes and poses
Dancing with the ghost
of time 
And the music of silence
We are puzzled
In pieces
Awaiting the distance 
Essence held in Tango
Cradled by the Spirit in me
Two feet become four
When I realize
Who is dancing with me

Thoth Was In The Branches

​I wondered what the baboon 
Has to do with it all 
Thoth showed up in the trees
I saw A'an balancing on the branches 
As mother and father battle for power 
Mother will put father together again 
Because he has lost himself 
Two twins in the sky 
Seek themselves 
Through me Thoth will speak the words 
Of the Sun 
Set time 
And bring blood 
Together again 
The call and response 
Of the heart 
On the wind 
Hold this eye to the light 
Place this ear to the earth 
Let us plant our feet on the ground 
And protect us
In the ignorance 
Of our knowing

No Nation

I pledge allegiance to no nation
Not to this flag
Nor the 50 states it claims 
To hold together
I am from that place
Where the sky meets the Earth 
No man's land 
Simply put I am 
DIRTY 
Ash and mineral 
Each particle 
Peaced together 
I am the grain 
And the mountain
Towering
Babbling
All the way home
Ase
Aho 
Hola 
Aloha
Hello 
Simply I say hello
With no nation to hold me
And no flag to mold me 
Island on Black
Moored to exile 
And the shifting port 
Of understanding
I do not believe in these borders 
I do not believe in unjust law 
I do not believe in this government
Life grabs me by the heart 
Demanding my attention
Inviting me to once again 
Feel this connection 
Like little girl again
Make world pretty again 
Set to forgetting the hate 
That penetrates deeper
Than a John 
Searching the streets 
For fallen stars...
Who am I?
Who are you to be asking?
Careful of the answers 
That allude to illusion 
Island on a version of me 
That reflects life
No matter my status 
Or if my papers are in order
No romanticzing insane
If you let go 
And love does not 
Greet you in your soul 
You might not have 
Really let go
Consider the position 
Of a world in extradition
Called home to Mother & Father 
To explain itself 
Pull a habeus corpus
On your heart 
Call the body of you home 
Hold trial 
And ask each ventricle
Who have you been serving?
Whose will reigns inside of you?
Because no nation can hold you
No flag can mold you
And in the end
No color could define you
Be still and listen 
Whisper me
Inhale and exhale me
Until the breathing is enough 
Mirror the mirage and
Envision 
A beautiful scene 
Of thirst quenched 
And sorrows soothed
We demand for the people
Equal access to inspiration 
A fluidity of motion 
That cultivates the will
To dance 
We demand for the people 
Food for stomach and thought
What is of the hand
Will be done 
Rest & Rise 
To regenerate 
Shift into the shape of life 
And slip across 
The border of knowing 
Into an audible silence 
Journey
into the undone space of you
Reflect & refract 
Be
With me 
In the rounded edge 
Of this Love

Remember the wolves came 
And took the fear away 
No longer afraid 
Of what lurks in the forest of me 
Just beyond the clearing 
And what is seen
No howl
No snarl
No chase
The darkness came 
And it was clear 
The sun had set on this page 
This day 
No thing left in this field 
But the footprint of leaving 
The wolves gathered 
The pack surrounded 
Their eyes 
Milky and electric with light
Spoke silently 
One so close 
I knew it to be ancestor
Wrote their truth
On my cheek like paper
Their breath like ink 
It is time to move 
Join us 
Be wild in this honesty 
Roam 
Where the harvest is bountiful 
You are protected 
You are guided.

Shards Of Glass

Breathe through the words
That pierce the throat
Like shards of glass
Somewhere between
Transparency and reflection
Swallow hard
and speak
Let you voice like blood
Wield the Word like harmmer
and shatter illusion

    I am a poet, for better or for worse. It is a way in my being that, ironically has no words. It is a way in my being that finds me when I, and helps me to, forget. I am a poet, for better or for worse.
