evening falls late,

as autumn in mid-winter,

frozen streets

crystal in ice till

water simple down a mountain

echoing nameless calls

falls block the air

quiet long after

darkness

amber burnt glass

frosts an image

shadow seen

a tiny scream

while someone

dreams behind paper walls

just, call me by

name

still again, i’m listening

for just three horsemen

into rust - a stage

where players but

silently past midnight,

in silver blood

ancient in a

wooden tub

with

a fourth rider

a pilgrim alone

image across the full

moon

never too soon

and unseen

night

slow time , slow

nowhere to go

yearning to run

free of

sand into a falling wind out

to beyond space

running nails through their

shines the sun

no more

broken finger nails

as smooth hand flesh

a shadow in the

almost turn

but see yourself

pause,

the mirror smiles for

a circle into;

silver black eyes behind

death in birth

you want to stop

the echoes

as creases upon

faces - late some

night never seen

sand voices adrift among the stars

afar upon the edged lips of

your fingers

a dream,

in silver and black dirt

the head of a man,

and a screaming woman

dreaming for

soft fingers in

grasp upon your

arm - bodiless,

and just

you learn not to turn around upon

a touch

such that,

you want to grasp full

the names unspoken

moments or belief

in hours of sweatless strain

laughter - full silence in refrain

demands sand only?

within such a rock

formed shell

where who but could ever

dwell

your eyes bend with change

as color roaming never still

snow crystals full

wine squeezed from clear wind

in the blood

of a moon blackened

stain

you run

still you run, on an eternal acre of

sand

color, only color in your command

bare feet torn

unfeeling?

reeling out to a wonder’s

shadowed wane

water in ice

to form with autumn

frozen in winter

and mountain height

capturing all the still

off a storm

you belong in torn

no more - in screaming

to stop

,

in screaming to.

high defined in feel

passed in black dirt and light

flight in near

moments of simulated fear

illusion falls into illusion

yester-year falls no more

nameless

in refrain a song whispers

as leaves within upon the wind

carving fine across the feel

as my skin

shall i begin

something belongs

something of where,

there - far across

a long marble floor

warm air in cold length

and fingers simply,

more then hear

days pass as moments

doors fade into the image

of a wooden floor

while windows are passed

glass free

shaded in the shadows

just past time motion

duality into freedom

silence across mornings

heard

in a cold time rage,

to feel a stage rocked

on edge

a wedge to rhyme

still nameless scream

skin who tears upon

itself -

sanity lies in question

air only lies within reach

strung tight as ever fine bone wine

tires you till you sleep,

never quietly -

far away something sways

in time to your fingertips

someone sips your

blood and ignores

the rage of it’s pulse.

someone as nameless

as the wind

what mirror on do

you lie - raging to a run

till you

begin or end -

something bends

into the side of

your vision

and as quickly is gone -

ice is as tears within your eyes

tries but lean as echoes

out into eternity

and the sounds are

silence.

scratches upon the face of

a mirror

rhyme leaning

too deep within -

frost lies upon your dreams

and morning is but a time for

screams.

it’s an autumn fire

that,

you watch the advent of

winter as crystalline

tries within the

wind.

on the floor lies a deck

of tarot cards

spread in a free

collage of meaninglessness

you almost verbally scream

, almost just run

blank pages.

echoes rage into the print of

naked trees in

where morning wakes

him no longer - late towards day

matches the death of leaves

as a trail upon the

quiet folds open

rage, for a stage

tears lost before a find

dreams wait usually

again just to wait,

stand naked - before a mirror

framed of wood and age

a stage upon the tips

of his fingers

a rage upon the sips

of his finds -

across an autumn trail

to what avail - for the

vision of himself outstretched

and naked

alone deep into

the night

a candle aflame - he turns

divisions always of

tomorrow and tonight

simple delight

winter holds hard through

of long dreams

dreamt yet not

simple exceptions unsung

between the hands -black

hands of a clock

long to lie - ticking on it’s side

marking time unheard

upon skin, within

adrift -

still from somewhere

adrift;

i alone -

across the street-light shadows

of trees - a colorless mist

of rain

and night

till movement is but

the walking edge of

anywhere -

circles roam and move out,

to run into one’s ageless

philosophies of yester-year

no one in there

shadows, but i

a poet’s line moves to create

and illusion manifests

where - no one sees

where no one even

believes -

where stands a moment

between steps

only i

in silence - still with the

moment

wonder even motions to

disbelieve

insanity questions

and yet

loses to the farce

of a poet -

eternally within the mists

of creation

but a voice where none

may hear -

alone with a question of rain,

wetting the motion of

my fingertips

as within a wetted black street

lies the sky - am i ...

snow water upon grass and

concrete

i watch the fill of cold on night

a moon reaching to full

almost,

reflects illusion to a naked

black sky

drifts away - easily away

all the reasons why!

my eye’s glow hard blue

mirrors into free

while the wind blows

out long - my hair

towards - trees

who bend stark,

not quite naked

in the sky

i stand in the fall of shadows

between memory and quiet

i stand still, night quivers

sharply against the open

break of day -

i look to the sky for the

continuance on shadows

in the mark of clouds

i watch a stain upon

concrete -from

far away

scarlet rags wrap moments

of warmth about my neck

a frozen tear shatters in

the wind - before ever

it reaches the ground

a moment, soundless,

in which

i lean heavily against a brick

wall -

something falls from my fingers

who no longer feel

hopeless as tired -

it is backing

towards home - a direction -

un-sudden my movement

i move

my tears remain spread out

in clear

within the sky

i turn dreamless

warmth upon warmth

wrapped within my quilt

nameless behind nameless walls

and only remembers the wind

my name -

in reason - is the same

for such that no one

in reason - remains the same

what is the form of, what’s dead

tired in sighs across

lines to mark a trace

her hair, pulled taught somewhere

behind a bathroom door

lines searching for lines - there

below her eyes

silken tries and / tears who echo

quietly, for

who is left as - what is wrong?

a song echoes - ice and form

she lies full in the edge of

my arms -what’s wrought

between craving and sleep

what deeply colored rhyme

sings wordlessly without -

her name lies

carried openly in a winter’s

frozen concrete

wrapped in scarlet and sleep

what more, is water

but forever the same -

deep into all - to love

that reaching call

death is a card

divined from her pocketed fingers

roaming just beyond the edges

of all whatever here -

i try to hold her in something said

but where turns life

sand is black

almost noiseless,

wearing the shadows of

and yet full hair

breaks open for a wind moment

and / her eyes - an unknown

blue

shape black, solid and deep

a question on the full edge of pain

quotes -

we clash between an alley

and an open street

retreat plays through

her fingers

as they hold anew

onto my arm -

and silence holds

cold names ever still

to the rage of concrete winds

entwining our legs -

in a room of shadow light

i watch her across the

bend - of a candle’s flame -

wine coats my throat warm

her hands lie still

upon themselves to her face, pulled

forward by the scalp tying of her hair -

her eyes lie blindly

into the

wondered warmth of mine

silence leans close to her lips

as each sip of her wine seems to

touch close to me -

an unpracticed guitar plays

the walls about us - from

a form - pitted

unseen behind a pole

behind her back -

she rests strangely at ease

as if her world holds no

surprises

her breasts - in color and line

lean sharply against the inside of

her blouse -

their quest, seeing to the rest

open her each breath, out

between our eyes -

a time dilation

and her hand in

mine drops colorless tears -

and /

late upon a blackness warm

found -

i lie - ever in my stillness

wandering - aloneness eternal

wandering -

mirrors of form

lie solid as the full hair of her

pelvic -

time slows - her arms as mine

are the rhyme of shape

for all that feels

as her fingers asleep against my skin,

wandering into an ageless night

i swim - alone

though alone into a pure black -

she lies as earth

color warmth

with just my fingers grasping

blindly behind me
