In the name of Love

Their vision scorched me

Thousand soldiers of darkness

Of untruth their flag

 

Is this as it is

The sum of all our hardships

Walking on the knees

 

I roamed the deserts

My hair running its own way

Talks of centuries

 

My shadows cast light

In the silence of their screams

As the widow dreams

 

They hardened their hearts

In the name of freedom’s rings

As their chains tightened

 

Martial waverings

Their walks valleys of despair

As orphans huddled

 

The suns in me tire

Of the cycles of tales dire

Reinventing hope

 

The blind men will grope

Their hands panic stricken tools

Their hearts emptiness

 

Power’s not prowess

Only throne of loneliness

Rotten arm in glove

 

When I live again

Walk with me in the valleys

In the name of Love

The dragon summons

Throngs of knights like nightingales

They whisper secrets

 

Into the dark night

They move in hurried footsteps

Their cloaks mantelpiece

 

Stories of knighthood

Belie undercover truths

That bask in the sight

 

The blinded eye sees

Retro projections of life

Of a past Time stale

 

Life scurries in paths

Where the unwitting stumble

Their gaze dream’s wonder

 

In Heart binding vows

Gushing forth like fast rivers

Rushing to the sea

Rebirth’s toil

Reinventing self

Gathering

The remnants

Low hanging fruit of cluster

Like diamond pendants

 

Aftermath

Resounding silence

Only core

Leftover

Remembering the absent

Decoration spent

 

A lifetime

Walking in penance

Hearts and spades

All just fades

Tricolour flag of clover

Hovers in game dreamt

 

Dealing rack

Falling through the skies

Like black rain

Hurried pain

The lashes bring back flashes

Of otherworldly

 

Thoughts to stack

Truth to tell from lies

When twin suns

Sizzle roads

Even dark rain quenches thirst

Of insides that burst

 

Seamless stitch

Metamorphosis

Don’t ask why

Walk Swim Fly

Change with the hammering tides

The meek soul abides

Liquid gates

Open through the night

Ghostly hush

Starlit rush

Look into another world

Where stories unfurled

 

Spirit bound

Millenary oath

Smoky eyes

Bees and flies

Gravitate around me cloak

Rings of the lantern

 

Portals shut

The dream now dissolves

Back to ground

Inner growth

Only witness of lessons

Willingness to learn

Finding Love

Finding Love

Blinding Love

A streak of lightning

Bolts through Heart

With a start

On comes the reckoning Time

Tides for bare seashores

 

Binding Love

Oft misconceptions

The snide talk

Of bondage

Thoughts in the mind that rummage

Through empty drawers

 

Buying Love

Silver coin in palm

She will tell

Your fortune

In dark alleys where eyes look

Away empty halls

 

Chiming Love

Sacred be thy name

To death’s toll

It peals, squeals

The greying head it reveals

Decaying monster

 

Shining Love

Diamonds in a dream

Brittle glass

Of trinkets

True nature washed by the stream

Of the years’ routine

 

Finding Love

Impossible task

The rare gem

Sewn in hem

Tucked away in silent pouch

See it when you crouch

Counting stones

Down by the river

Each pebble

A symbol

Of weight that creased the footstep

When feet were nimble

 

Walking straight

Aloft the waters

Heaven’s pull

Contrasting

Gravity everlasting

Maintaining balance

 

Water flows

Endless free motion

No cushion

Commotion

A state of being alive

In expectation

We bear ills

Of every nation

Our hearts fenced

Our minds tight

Shutters barely let in light

Shadows our pittance

 

There are trees

That grow in the air

When I look

They are there

My mind their only manure

The sky’s tears their food

 

The world twirls

Dark merry-go-round

Yet I dream

Yes I dream

Images that join stream

Down by the river

The coastline

Shimmers under sun

Wanton gleam

Daylight dream

Some things are more than they seem

Compounded interest

 

Your shadow

Crossing over mine

Dark omen

Of chances

Piercing looks replace glances

Serendipity

 

The story

Reads infinity

Tags misplaced

The soul braced

To your bedside I had raced

The shivering Tides

 

Silver moon

Overlooks the creek

Where we speak

Silent thoughts

Petals of flowers in pots

Manure of morrows

 

They will grow

The fading whispers

Of past Times

When we dreamt

All that dissolved and was meant

To be or to waste

 

Broken haste

Picking up pieces

Relaying

Songs playing

The soul to soul obeying

Together again

Our burdens

The sum of sorrows

We carry

Their dead gait

Knees caving under the weight

Of wasted morrows

 

Open heart

Let the sorrow drip

Like the rain

Kissing Earth

See in their embrace rebirth

Of inner children

 

We were once

The kings of playgrounds

Our chests bare

Laid down hair

The dark stringent marks of Time

Still unwoven threads

 

Soul carefree

We danced with the winds

That shook fierce

All the fires

Within heart carving desires

The mind a wild bird

 

Bleak routine

Settling in with hooks

Anchored us

Rooted feet

Day by day we faced defeat

Of the larky times

 

The dreams dreamt

They are lost in mists

Read in books

Blown in winds

Paper scattered now rescinds

Every magic word

All fake rules to breach

The night wears

My limitless frame

Like a cloak

Of darkness

Concealing the light within

My endless source bright

 

Soul awake

Watches as they quake

Minds clinging

Desperate

To a grey world now dying

Broken synapses

 

Weak attempts

Mending the bridges

Stitching seams

Killing dreams

Pushing dreamers to ridges

End of the journey

 

Infinite

The rays of the heart

They soar high

Into sky

Explosion of truths in lie

Cosmic clarity

 

Scarcity

Fabricated scheme

Enslaving

Paths of love

Clipping the wings of the dove

Of lost abundance

 

We will reach

The valleys of hope

Downward slope

Upward push

Known forces of resistance

All fake rules to breach

De nos chairs réunies éternel reposoir / Of our flesh united eternal altars

Les distances anoblies aux lisières de l’émoi

Que le cœur étreint fort lors le cerveau médit

Surannées établies les limites de ce moi

Vieil orgueil en soi mort que l’intérieur prédit

 

Règle de base rétablie la fusion unique loi

Enchevêtrement sort que destin expédie

Résistance affaiblie mollesse de bon aloi

Que la danse de nos corps à ce futur dédie

 

Je vis d’illusions fermes flottant d’entre viscères

Des rêves bleus infinis suintant en moi le soir

Si ambigus les termes de ces mots qui lacèrent

 

Paroles creuses impunies le géant arrosoir

Inondant cœurs qui germent comme dans une vaste rizière

De nos chairs réunies éternel reposoir

Of our flesh united eternal altars

(Translation of an Italian sonnet written in French. Original version above or here)

1 May 2016

moon etsy com

Distances ennobled in the fringes of emotion

The heart hugs hard while the brain slanders

Outdated established the limits of this me

Old pride in oneself death that the inside predicts

 

Basic rule restored the merger only law

Entanglement fate that destiny expedites

Weakened resistance pliability a good sign

That the dance of our bodies dedicates to this future

 

I live of firm illusions floating between viscera

Infinite blue dreams seeping into me at night

So ambiguous the terms of these words that lacerate

 

Empty unpunished words the giant watering can

Flooding hearts that germinate like a vast paddy field

Of our flesh united eternal altars
