i was wrong - 1/16/2007

once upon a time
once upon a place
i saw signs in
the stars
and written
on her face
and I thought
i knew everything
everything
would be alright
between smiles
and star's light
i knew
with the
certainty
of sunrise
i knew
in my bones
we were
reincarnations
of two lost
stones
and our time
had finally come
to sanctify
the progression
of souls
to flesh
revivified
but i was
wrong

The Hanged Man - 1/9/2007

when you
leave me
by silver
shores
in darkness
glimmering
leave me
sunken
in the sand
on water's
edge
shimmering
let lilies
cover what
were my eyes
and place
flowers
on my face
perfume
for a hung man
left to drown
in endless
aquarian embrace
