When you finaly
Find your treasure.
Then…
There are the Holy Days
When your treasure
Finds you.

Time is in the driver seat
Never pulling over to rest.
Fear is singing comforting songs from childhood
About how everything will be alright.
Apathy is carving up Ambition’s body
Throwing the pieces out the window.
Despair follows in the distance
Sweeping Ambition’s remains off the Road.

Urgent weather bulletin from the channel 5 Kismet trackers
…A Defensive Prominence will be moving through the area over the next few days.
The front is being fueled by unusually low expectations and visibility reducing myopic perspectives.
Use caution if going outdoors at it is expected to rain vitriol then freeze over with resentment…

he Queen raised her head and spoke,
“Summer shall end one Moon early this year”.
Her subjects nodded their approval.
She continued, “As Spring began one Moon early and Summer began one Moon early so shall Fall begin one Moon early. To this I add that Winter too shall begin one Moon early. What stores we have not must be now drawn from the land. From each field must come into this Palace the food of our Winter. Placed herein by the many hands of the faithful. To secure for all of us a future in the flowering fields of Spring.”
The subjects buzzed loudly with excitement as they hurried to their tasks.
The Queen, finished with her proclamation, excused herself and began anew her sacred task. Laying eggs in the honeycomb.

Man could wrap his arms around creation
If he bothered to maintain a line
Back to the beginning
Though, in fact,
Our arms are shorter
Than our legs
Since most can’t remember
The ground they touched today
If anyone touched ground at all

Single
Rust colored pine needle
Balancing upright
Upon the marbled slate-blue iced over lake
Framed at the edges in deep glittering snow
Binding Spruce into great flowing columns
Anchoring an embracing domed azure sky
Crested by the blinding-white golden Sun

Mystery romances the lost
Ginning what truth remains
of a seed
long after it germinates

Celebrating each revealed truth
As gospel
fresh from the makers lips

Until as fire purifies ash
is the acorn found

With each strike of the hammer
The nail plunges deeper into the wood
Each hit concealing more and more
Leaving less and less to see
Until eventually the nail is gone
Pushed entirely beneath the surface
Never to be seen again
No mark or blemish
Where once stood iron
The hallmark of a skilled craftsman

A thousand years
interned in a dungeon

Climbing up the pile

Ad infinitum

Ending and beginning
in the Chasm
Highpoint of memory
bottomless in despair

If if virtue is gold
my soul is poor
each revolution
refilling the pit with debt

In it collects the runoff
of apprehension and fear
as a cauldron of doubt
and crucible for folly

yet at the edge again
by my choice
i bring myself
wan and bridgeless

Though after the crossing
as i emerge and walk yet away
am i really leaving
or beginning the trip back
