Gladly


I gladly bring my Lovely angel Love's spirit with me
everywhere I go, despite her not sitting beside me
at the coffee shop, the restaurant, the passenger seat.

She's there beside me, inside of me, smiling Love,
caressing her forgiveness throughout my being,
dancing inside, cleansing my sins with her seeing.

Her grace dwells in my stumbling gait
keeping me from falling off the edge,
holding me from the very least of me.

Her breath folds over my speech, over my tongue,
often too brutal for the whole of polite consumption
too rigid to glide, too swollen to fly, too empty to smile.

Nod if you understand, my dear. Yes. I thought you would.
…Yes. I’m remembering now, I’m feeling you within me.
Yes. I recognize the pathway, my Love, it is most good.

Peace

I have been witness to the four pillars and see no reason to carry death there. Doesn’t the world know that life moves for more than just the sons of Abraham? O! I see the stunned throats floating by in the dusk to their stiff-limbed sleep as metal rains down over the Jordan’s western prophet, children dying there. I am here, waiting, breathing in the dusk under the shadow of the patriarch, asking, can we again build the shrine inside the soul and leave our flesh to time? © 2008 mrp/thepoetryman

SKYFALL

Skyfall... We continue to play along with an unnatural game that has serious consequences, soon we'll find ourselves enslaved without recourse to the system. (Is that true of local charades?) Yes. (Why can't we free ourselves from the system?) The madness of money. (It's not money, it's people, right?) It's both, money and us in tandem, thus assuring money's might and our adherance to its loudness. (Madness...) Indeed. © 2017 Mark Richard Prime

THE ROCK HOLDS

The rock holds the soil in and from the soil springs the tree, the green of LIFE rolling from the blue, rising to the occasion of itself. . “Be!”, the (H)eartH declares, “Be what you are!” . (We thought we were!) . (We think we are!) . “You are, but not freely, therefore, only a thought, and a thought without much thinking, as if you were scared into it.”, the (H)eartH added. .
