all else is but grist upon the mill
give all you may upon each breath you take
death is a joke
placed at any time
make what you will
of the time you are gifted

here in the screaming
ying/yang now howling
with laughter beneath
the cold sunrise............

i am but a sigh within this everpresent now
with nothing but awe
of this organism called universe

(more eclipses and less big brothers)

to be the earth
& also the moon
& to observe from somewhere else
moon, earth, you, the whole universe
and maybe something else...


good morning, I´m leaving to join an asado

i walk without regard to that which passes by
i am a man
i am set upon my course
i travel not to see that which comes between
i go only to be where i end up
time is but a hindrence
watched like no other
it is only out to get me
escape is not an option
unless i give up my civilized self
time is what gives me energy to perform

each breath
i take in the infinite
born of this
unable to escape
my dna
in this spiral galaxy
born of dust and limitlessness
i stand arms upraised
without fear of what i shall be given

tick tock tick tock
no escaping the
march, the ebb,
the flow, the moon
holding water while
the sun is eclipsed
by more than a
perchance to dream,
ain't no scheme as the
ants come marching in......

my machine gun seed
shot into your belly
like diamonds of the future
rapt and wiggling
the generations escape
and swim upstream
on a chance
"These words don't make me a poet, these Eyes make me a poet."

the crow
he caws unrepentant
he is the mouth of the dead
his belly burst with those that went before
his caw is a reminder that your time will come
the crow allows life to forget the dead
and at the same time the crow
is the trumpet call of those that went before

a crow calls to prayer
over the sweet sown fields
the wheat of soon

a perched emissary
seeing what winds will bear
a seed, a woman, a lone thought

caw - and all's well
all welcome
like the breeze over newly ploughed earth

the crow can pass for a raven
black headed and lookin slick
but the crow knows more
and talks about it

his beak in the ears of the strawman
unafraid as a gentleman bird
picking up what others drop
"These words don't make me a poet, these Eyes make me a poet."

The Poet's Eye
