    The drunken poet danced with fireplugs, Sang of false joy and desperation

  • The drunken poet danced with fireplugs,
    Sang of false joy and desperation
    Down and around that infamous corner,
    While hard men swaggered,
    And willful blackguards staggered
    Back to the waters' edge.
    They longed for soft skin,
    A moment's release, a pretense of love.
    They stood alone.

    Welcome

    How did you cross my path?
    You are a stranger to me,
    Quantity unknown,
    Persona untold.

  • # 1

    Dance with me,
    Before the storms,
    The sorrows.
    Dance fearlessly,
    In howling winds.
    Sing songs unknown.

    Feel the heat:
    Love realized
    Completely.
    Lie quietly
    Among the dunes.
    Sand-swept, windblown.

    The sun is gone

    the stars and moon our only light.

    The sheets, crisp linen.

    From the window, sweet

    Gardenia fills the air.

     

    And you stand as a silhouette.

    The moon behind you

    White gown drapes your body

    Soft and warm for me, sweet

    Gardenia in your hair...

     

    Give me your cheek, your lips,

    Yielding tender breasts and more...

    Dance with me, together as

    One, two, three, one, two, sweet

    Gardenias everywhere.

     

    Bloom now,

    Spread wide.

    The hummingbird seeks

    What the meadow produces -

    A delicate and fragrant flower …

     

    The root pushes to the ground,

    And the rain will satisfy.

    Ballet at once.

     

    Different feel:

    Creating form,

    viewing that form,

    photo or vid.

     

    (Being or

    seeing self.)

     

    Perhaps that's why

    there are mirrors

    in studios -

    to feel it all.

    As if yesterday remains...

    We laid a pallet on the floor Stretched out Drenched in fragrance There was no Resistance, no Discussion, no Negotiation. Yielding, Accepting, Welcoming. Laid on that pallet on the floor, as one. Add paragraph text here.

    The heliocentric cabaret brought music of the spheres, The Roma's violin sang Czardas to our ears, Laughing, cruel fanatics added reason to our fears, But those winds are gone. The night is long. The shadows of our yesterdays are really not our past, We thought the noticed moments of our...
  • It was a sweet song:
    Your name was in it.
    Two birds sang the melody.

    Of what shall we speak,
    And of what shall we remain silent,
    Never whisper unto the sea
    Or gesture into the morning's fog?

    I listen to the silence.
    Can you hear?

    Louise Brough

    Writer and historical research

    To endorse you--really--I would say you are a fine gentleman...a man on whom one can truly and fully depend, in time of joy and in time of crises. One who has my back....and one who can soothe my soul, who through
    some divine prompting can uplift my spirits, one who has knowledge, who thinks usually before he speaks, whose intelligence and well-read information never ceases to amaze me. Your integrity and focus are qualities I feel sure are an integral part of you. All those qualities make you the person you are, and thus, your skills and expertise
    simply are a given...true, honed by years of "practice" and diligence on your part. One should not forget...your great humor and sense thereof.
    And lest I forget...your wonderful poetry....

     

    M. H. is an amazing man. His talents know no bounds, his mind stirs the
    creativity in his soul that pours words out onto paper or visions onto
    canvas or any other media available to him. He has a beautiful eye that
    sees life and recreates it for all to see and realize earth's beauty
    through his creative interpretation. I am grateful to have known this
    man for more years than I care to mention. I highly recommend M. H. for
    his talents, as his work will validate.

    Notes that floats above the range
    In cities strange, or home
    Where the hip-slip buffalo roam,

    Until the cows come home.

    At ten.
