Shorter and hopefully sweeter (or bittersweet-er):
words can bridge so much yet can not easily reach...
Shy moon Hiding with Dwining stars
"Do you not see how necessary a world of pains and troubles is to school an intelligence and make it a soul?" (John Keats)
"the flame is not the fire", poem and ai-art
Palpitating Shiver of sea
Defeated again / By a shy / Unwritten verse...
Hold fast / My love / Else drift would ...
Hold my hand / I know this hurts / The death rattle of a dying age ..
Longer Poems:
We are the flames We carry the fire
Shall I regurgitate those tired old tropes?
The Soul, an early casualty / Of more precise instrumentation / Senescence, just another Dragon to be slayed...
'I feel as if I'm losing all my leaves. The branches, and the wind, and the rain. I don't know what's happening anymore.' - Anthony ('The Father')
A feeling of this world breaking, like waves of the sea
Rilke 'Translations'*
Stale dull days, I can tell the storms are coming by the trees that rap against the worried window-panes and I hear the sound of distant things, saying that which: I cannot bear without a friend, cannot love without a sister.

Each day we watch Astonished As you grow in strength Into your blood feathers
Another day Wrestling with God
Who will watch the Unwatched
"I am going to put an end to all people, for the earth is filled with violence because of them. I am surely going to destroy both them and the earth." (Genesis 6:13)
"The strong do what they can and the weak suffer what they must."(Thucydides, History of the Peloponnesian War, circa 431 B.C.E)...
We gave bloody battle Then violent death To the meat
We questioned him hard, hammered him and watched him break into a thousand pieces and shards.
Surely it is a journey of a thousand steps...That leads over the Mountains of Deceit Down through the Gorge of Avarice
Did we break Some promise Is there something That we forgot? Surely there is Meaning hidden within This wild suffering This abandonment
