And taste not half the bliss the gods bestow....

It's a strange place I am in
A pendulum of admiration and desperation
I allow others to drive who I am
I allow the change that makes me half of me
This will change
Come into my garden and witness the abundance
The whole moon gleams in every pool
It rides so high
Let the beauty we love be what we do
Even if for a moment
You will be walking within my soul soon
Quietly
Breathing
In.. out
With your pretty blue tide
Pay no note the sadness and accusers
That I alternatively loathe and enjoy
A cult of veneer
But purity is only the absence of detail
Perfection is an average
Too cowardly to examine itself
Truth is so much easier when it swallows its own passages
The winter witch with her charts and fate
Had half a life
But no more
The summer saviour has a torso of gold
But a heart burnt and timefearing
My love is a season unto herself
My Dionysus
Making love to his hellenistic twin-sister
Kisses on your mouth
Your eyes, everywhere, everywhere
I am sin and poems
I am tin and chrome
I am skin and bone
It is brunch time in Arkadia
Longing
In dreams
I shall see thee
In Light

The justifier

Her love is hot, but mine is not
This woman is a perfumed breeze
Greek Gods recline on her knees
I'd freeze the sun to kiss her ear
A suit of doubt she gave to me
In return I cried a sea
Of poet's tears and something more
I camped outside her velvet doors
Love's a freak and it moves fast
My marble dream how could it last
The truth is like a stranger
Be like you could
All my friends say
Jigged like a muse on life's lawn
