"In the deep,

     I have acquaintenances

        with whom I share a common goal -

            intimate friends, visionary souls.


                I swim in the darkly mirth

                    and beyond the yawning abyss;

                        I watch by night for the vulnerable waif

                            that might find me too, remiss.


                          For I am here for one brief spark

                       in Time's expedient flight,

                    just swimming in the darkness,

                 while moving toward the light."


                     


"Windows"



From the safety of my room, I can look out.


I can see whatever I wish, whenever I wish.


From the safety of my room,

I create an idyllic illustration

of the environment my spirit requires.


Sheltering trees wave to me in the wind,

their branches  rustling morning "Hello's; 

honeysuckle mingles seductively

with the savage undergrowth;

and an azure sky finds satisfaction

in serving merely as a promiscuous monarch

to its subjects below.


This - is my "Window."

my preferential view of the world

when life is too harsh to accept

on its unyielding terms.


It is my escape  - my reprieve from reality.


It is my ability to divine the strength I need

in any particle of beauty that has

ever inhabited a corner of my mind.


It is my momentary rearrangement of priorities

when I am in doubt;

it is  my imagination -

it is my Skylight to the Stars.....
