Fire from the Sky

woodlands scorch’d to ash
beasts ambush’d to annihilation
compost’d soil
somehow
be brought abed
of newer but divergent woods
of newer but divergent beasts
of future
vigilant scientific eyes

In Memory of Memory

with purpose I enter a room
only to ask myself “Why?”
standing… looking around…
struggling for the reason—
only to retreat backwards
retracing my mind’s steps
to the nearest beginning—
and after a while something reminds me
of my original task
and I bear for it aggressively
thinking only of it
till it’s done

it happens more now

I see a face in my head
someone familiar… or famous
whom I’ve seen hundreds of times—
I should know her… or him—
I do recognize them
but what were their names?
A…B…C… all the way to Z
sometimes helps
but not this moment—
I loathe to use th’ internet
but surrender to it… find my answer…
then repeat as many names
to match the faces clutch’d by my thoughts

it happens more now

I must practice…practice…practice
like keeping post-its for brain waves
that I might fail less
in the coming tomorrows

oh God!
what was I just thinking?

it happens more now

Collision of Thoughts (03/24)

‘twas not always a part
of this infrequent dream
where land and sky rendezvous’d
in quiet harmony

but now a distant gap
has been arcanely occupy’d
with another mystery to engage
this already megafusion of senses

what else might be there
on some return trip?

Dream III

splash’d was my mind
with a whisper
of hue on furlough
of age forgotten
of entities that never were

and when my eyes
yawn’d and left their pillow
strain’d I my intellect
only to remember none of it

and still but a partial play
in a future slumber

Ghost Citadel

within these ramparts
converse the spirits
of fortress life
of defenders
of battles won to preserve that life
of battles lost and lives lost

this magical day
decipher’d their stories
into song across the sky
on the Backbone of Day

Haven of Reflection

where shadows of thoughts

perceive irenic meaning

and sleeps disruption
