Wine and Mussels

With wine and mussels on my tongue
I have to praise the One
Whose works are far above
The words I band and bind
To try in vain describe 
The wonder... is it love?
I hope since shines on
Good and bad He does,
He will forgive what
Many times is lust
For life He made us;
Thank you for the park
And setting sun, so
Thank you for the dark
That settles doubts for some so
Let me be the one
Whose love extends beyond
The wonders of the tongue.

Moon

The night rolls relentless forth
Draws day to a close, Isis calls
On moon to rise and shine

But moon is hidden by earth
Inside horizon rim of light
Blood red shadow

Will not prevail, temple veil
Rent asunder will not fail
To show relentless hope.

on cloud one

here it comes I know you
the clock taken apart that
will no longer step like
grace of ants carrying bits
of broken reed that cannot
be placed back the cloud
it comes in ominous grace
it’s time, it’s time to let go
of vain works that life works
it doesn’t it unwinds unlike
screws of water of respite
the bells of hope and forth
the water crossed in froth
and muck toes intact with
any luck if only I could
rise above the hurt that is
today.

Human

Like bad poet seeking rhyme, ( I )
Turn to Nietsche ( a ) second time;
Like wisdom that tooth forgot
Super truth is all I got.
