The silence of rivers speaks to the tallest tree

Its roots of millennium touch the hollow of Earth

The lessons of tedium help the mind in rebirth

The passage that quivers leads through slices of me

 

Foregone are the shivers the new tides set me free

In moon the selenium spins promises of dearth

Enriched the uranium times renewing the firth

In history’s givers printed code of the Three

 

We gathered the shadows the precious mineral

The crowds lined with haters cobbled stones drew the way

The women like widows advanced our funeral

 

The beautiful gallows on Cape Canaveral

When yesterday’s craters wrought the guesses today

The blue wept like willows the despair general

In waning moon I see the light

A jagged cut of warped desire

An end for burden of this fight

Letting go circumstances dire

 

Lost the colour of cheeks then flushed

I wish my face a lily white

Silence dwelling in bosom hushed

That mind may find renewed respite

 

Grant me courage that I may find

And travel into fields of lore

New peace for all to leave behind

That only soul has touched before

 

And as this frame I would discard

Our love eternal lives unmarred

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

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

Unanswered questions

Float in tense expectations

I move in freefall

 

We seek not defeat

Our hands workers of new fates

Our minds connivance

 

Do you seek heartbeat

Or stillness of the silence

Obliterating

 

Float with me through clouds

They sizzle from the sun’s touch

When rains cast their spells

 

Throw yourself in flames

Lose yourself to find yourself

Unplanned are the games

 

Do you hear the drums

They beat tomorrow that comes

Flowing in the heart

 

Stillness is heartbeat

Motion in motionless thrives

Together apart

 

The path winds and dives

The diver divine dancer

Question is answer

 

The wind blows sparkles

The lark and nightingale pair

Where Earth sprinkles air

Beings filled with love

Building a bright new future

Their minds keen work tools

 

Others filled with void

Twirling into oblivion

Their empty corpse holes

 

They say find silence

The inner tool of stillness

Yet some seek point blank

 

There is no freedom

Within pangs of emptiness

Only the darkness

 

Find the inner sight

What leads you back to your soul

Redeeming you whole

 

When the fear is laid

Down with the mindless corpses

Beings of soul live

Inside Time

Milliseconds drip

Centuries

Whirling fast

Within warped universes

That leave head spinning

 

Under Time

The silence echoes

Wasted thoughts

Daily tasks

Withered in suns as she basks

Outlines twined shadows

 

The humdrum

It stretches worthless

Sunken fear

Opposed rising

The mind and thought surmising

Through opposite peaks

 

Across Time

Walking gingerly

Guided path

Mentor flies

Following with downcast eyes

Avoiding the wrath

 

Outside Time

Proportions vary

All dilates

Written slates

Matter less when we become

Light’s transient beings

 

Time no Time

All the dead people

They party

Pale corpses

They make merry with shut eyes

When sight sees not lies

The silence

The silence

The silence

It charges the mind

Loaded gun

Roulette spun

Inventing reasons to see

Beyond eye’s sight space

 

The silence

Like a stubborn child

It wriggles

Fighting back

Refusing to cut me slack

As I compress it

 

The silence

Looming like a cloud

It hovers

All covers

In icy understanding

Of oncoming death

 

The silence

It leaks from the roof

Into bed

And breakfast

Routine of a buzzing life

Filling emptiness

 

The silence

It pervades matter

Engulfs me

Like dark cloak

Erasing the words we spoke

In between phrases

 

The silence

It gnaws like a doubt

Its teeth firm

Its jaws set

Onslaught rising at sunset

It carves my time loops

 

The silence

I embrace its fog

It cajoles

Caresses

Within past weave frame dresses

As I tick seconds

De silence gouffre béant faire de moi endormie / From silence gaping chasm to make me a sleeper

Les paroles vainement dites sont les sceaux des tombeaux

Où lys et pissenlits reposent doux face à face

Gloires et splendeur dédites orientent mes oripeaux

Cœur ouvert de délits ne connaît point disgrâce

 

Contez-moi les mérites d’arborer les lambeaux

Je vous froisserai les plis de vérités d’une race

Servitudes émérites les portant en flambeaux

Pour des ventres bien remplis sous des cœurs de rapace

 

Je n’ai eu de seigneur que la douceur des prés

Bleu de vastes océans abritant mes douces nuits

Je nais, hue ! on saigne heure en sang rouge des cyprès

 

Voyez en mon céans les battements de bleue vie

Il bat en mon cœur fleur violette qu’on tait exprès

De silence gouffre béant faire de moi endormie

The words said in vain are the seals of tombs

Where lilies and dandelions lay soft face to face

Glory and splendor denied orient my tatters

Open heart of offenses knows never the disgrace

 

Tell me about the merits of brandishing shreds

I will crease for you the folds of the truths of a race

Distinguished slaveries, carrying them like torches

For well-filled bellies under raptor hearts

 

I had no other master than the gentle meadows

Blue of vast oceans sheltering my sweet nights

I am born, boo! They bleed the hour in red blood of cypresses

 

Look hither within me the beating of blue life

In my heart beats a flower violet that they silence willfully

From silence gaping chasm to make me a sleeper

Words spoken

Like leaves in the rain

Fluttering

Wandering

From the mind to tip of tongue

They hold ecstasy

 

The shining

Rolling fantasy

As they heave

Like oceans

Breaking on the shore of mouth

Where they singe, the pain!

 

Keep talking

It is but in mind

Impressions

Of peeling

The skin breaks in revealing

Secrets of bosom

The decay

It counts slow pieces

Parts of lips

Fallen red

On the ground a pool of dread

Quirks of existence

Resistance

Slow path through the light

Shimmering

Inside me

A gate to safe where I flee

Unwarranted flight

 

I chose left

Where path took turn right

Mistakes made

Experience

Of the good and the ugly

Oh love how they smite!

 

I won’t tell

Of crestfallen hearts

That winced

At light words

Thrown like stones at falling birds

Spoken in Silence
