freedom's morning

rising just alone

long poem written,

a laughing try

dressed with the rest

whispering winds call

trying to steal

broken mirrors,

wind blown dreams

but the freedom-flies,

of our eternal sighing

and till she moved,

she took her man

in, away they swam

till she accepted

her breath within, my

seeing of her blind sight

drifting light - but for the

you cry woman

and maybe - for

the woman, not yet

you never dreamed of

open skies through winter,

but

only - off your long - ever lost

you

a child who died for the fear of death

and still before the fear of birth

child - still you yearn to return

but

with no sword in hand

till again the sand - falls open

to

your empty grave -

start running - across past

the sand

find your birth,

between two trees - in

space of open land -

to:

dig open your

grave still - awaiting - in

fears-dream

solid & strong - not to be

carried

empty by - a circled wave’s

stealing wind

die the death

who waits -

always relating on it’s stand,

steps before your fate -

'die solid'

into birth -

for reason,

for reason of birth

for the woman who waits,

the woman who is

you,

and only forward can you return

as death is a burn -

either to cripple

or kill

and free to die

on the only, of your lying

dead -

 

on the question of birth -

(to have bore life - if free

to remember

if free to bare)

either queen or stage -

as your card is death

so is the rage,

of a turn

 

- jude

 

 

to look into her face,

to see

from this stranger, and with me

a death

of we

carried on the sea of life

so short

; and though eternal

but no

in empty gardens - does

light, ever

quite grow

and color sewn into a

limited beginning

,as never quite able

to know

 

a circle etched in eyes

met - who’s

to be,

and yet, never

weaves no time for good-byes

a hello- is never

wed

or to be

all in a moment to see

and no more can you greet

blind

on the ... on the empty

yet all - scream hope

for a bind in

chance

no! perchance to not

as for a moment, you change

sights

just any light of breath

a filled room

and alone - you move

and in silence, moan

till the moon

catches you free,

 

always

live man,

as the child,

when you can

touch on the touch

you'll know to die

don't lie!

but,

do you lose

how to cry !

broken child,

just too young to know the

care

just too young to have

heard the tear

and she grows into woman

yet where comes her

strength

to bare into life

even her breath

and of all the children

yet to be

born

and broken!

circles -

do they even care anywhere

to go

the fetus - buried within

the snow

the mother - buried within

a winter’s

frozen cold

and always before the

coming

summer burns

who stains

the lost in tumbling grains

of

a non-breathing

rust

 

so, what asks them

ever to try!

waiting;

as waiting the children

to die

from hope - they give only

lies

from dreams - they leave only

relates ...

she,

where hides she

standing, seemingly un-ridden by

walls -

responding to calls

but not

to the eternal

sliding of inner falls -

not painted as woman,

or as child

she stands - but always

in dress -

naked, her skin is

taut -

clothed - her tired jeans

refuse wrinkles,

she is a soft, in light structure

pouring fact,

she,

who is she

a silent breath, speaks below

the line of solids -

and even,

yet too quiet it flows -

touching, leaving little

to, no

reminder of it’s touch -

quiet she passes -

as yet ; quiet she stays

asking for rhythm,

is her naked motion

but where it stays

or,

is there a play

lost on the cast of

breath

 

lying naked - as her man,

she doesn't hear

their ... can -

as her sweat rolls,

away

as her sweat left to stay -

clothed

- who is she -

does she sleep -

as, what are the boundaries

of her

silence -

free - ?

who are the walls

of the

naked ; perfection,

in her skin -

yes - moon-lit-cave

who’s home to stay -

playing little girl

on a woman's stage

painting light - painting their eyes

painting nothing

who feels

and is the page

woman -

she stands

before no mirror - as they have

broken-gone

in the lingering on,

naked

hands upon her breasts -

dreaming - as

she forgets to dream -

broke - yet

unbroken on the

scream never to

come -

she walks -

feeling ugly

feeling clean

feeling beauty in between

in the mirror of the moon -

no child plays-

in plead for a father rooted -

no woman - stays

asleep on the bed of stains,

so long ago dried -

outside she cried -

give me -

but free : but walls -

yet tears linger

inside - unheard -

to hide their

trying - for

the hoping, where

ancients snore -

who is she - alone inside

the rain -

forgetting where rainbows, stain -

swimming for a shore -

tree safe

yet sanded - where

might her footprints be seen

by she -

forgetting for the sound she doesn't

make -

wondering on mistakes,

so crowded and alone

"stranger, were you friend -

remember me"

but who really? leads to the

empty shadow

behind her - she?

a woman bleeding to the

sky -

wanting but a moment of

real

while hands still reach

to swallow,

in her presence

her blood

wiping their hands

on her nakedness

wanting but a moment of

she -

who is the fear

that stands

hidden in the darkness

on the plain

face against face against face -

in quiet deep below lives

the trace

within the woman

below the child

ignoring her body’s cravings

for an island -

dreamt pure - with eyes now

stained she reaches up

so small

naming what tall -

before what's yet to be born - from it’s birth

still waiting

yes, for she -

yet - but for who

is yet to die

not from the lie

but from the

real

 

she must see the hand

hear the sand

yet woman must stand alone

before the island meets

the sea ...

it's a quiet evening

and the night not quite,

walks on colors soft

speaking tales of feel

round through my window,

rhyme beyond

a city's door

 

her name returns from more

then one place

maybe - more then one

face

her eyes sit deep atop of

a burning silence

as how forever long is

her hair

yet - have i ever met her

here beneath the

silent words of

an evening’s sky -

when it's time to turn,

or time to choose

no one wants the dream

coming real

on the roads in the reach

to feel -

a black river in motion

flows - hard,

often cold

between the woman

and her long

ago - shed dress -

somewhere, lost in the tree

a smile smiles

not happy - not sad

but knowing

with eyes, in wait to open -

he calls & her body

remembers - a forever-reaching

but warmth -

yet, the river

mirrors she in

dress - a warmth she owns

through a surface chill -

she falls,

into the blackness

of her own reaches - growing;

cold

numb,

warm...

dressed -

she swims - but knows not

how - stops to dream

of the man calling

and stumbles - and for breath -

fear - and the cold threatens to

return -

the dress doesn't tear,

will she fear it’s wear -

below mountains - through rapids

capped white -

her hand reaches - but for

which shore

as a man calls

so does a fingered hand

wait -

dressed - her fingers can

only hear

they hold no ears to fear -

a hand in hers,

walks towards the

reaching mountains - yet

it's her dress who

carries her warm

as the dress is she, it need not ever

call to return -

walking ...

yet as the hand yearns

in her hand -

can she continue

to remember

...

in night - she stood alone,

hidden from

as between -

the statues who move themselves

as hers

turning on the fear

of the too quiet

sounds - tearing on the bounds

of an only she

- naked in water, she touches

feeling someone there -

voicing a silence who belongs -

a moment that

longs

from she - she is warm and

bathed in her

own motion’s waves - who wake

through her skin -

she reaches out - into

the nothing...of?

and doesn't quite see -

nothing can only be

but what -

what is the taste of eternity

whose fingers reach from the sea -

turns - in water

growing cold -

woman chained naked

upon the rocks - her scars pained

by the breaking of

salted water -

awaiting what hero's

sun-sword

forgetting the rains

and chains who are

but stains

to be washed away

snug in dress

shivering no more past the break

of time

 

drifting unknown

on the second

eternal

she wanders on whose fingers

blinking

again timed

she begins blindly - to remember

where is

 

blinking -

she stands alone...

boiling water, till

walk

as in the skies,

on the wind

alone does he walk -

with never that silence

to hide the stains -

full, on sails

across the tries -

begin -

blowing streams of energy

like sin

clear -

never seen -

eggs - left on the nest

dry - dead by a golden

sun -

needed to run!

 

in the cave of crystal sights

he sleeps

through the voices of eternal

flights -

once to open his eyes

finding:

but a formless night -

 

a dream within the flames

of cold -

grows old

who; grows old

who knows he can

pouring sand on the street

clasping movement - across as feet,

while the hand smiles to meet

remembering the night,

growing while she can
