my eyes have gone to you
like a poem to eyes that read it
why are you a poem?
why should I keep my eyes from their journey?
what will their home be like without poems?
#poetry #poem #poet #journey #love #isolation
love finds you happiness
#poem #poetry #poet
nothing to write
enter the day as a ghost
leaves making a chorus
in the wind’s notes
the despair of perished leaves
on the ground
poems from tree’s society
transcribe discardment
#poetry #poem #poet #trees #isolation
I type out a flower
in the old way of the internet
it seems funny
that there are old ways
of the internet
--;---;----(((
#poetry #poem #poet #flower
I’m stretching a blue elastic band
and flicking the air
hopefully the spirits round me
have saw it
and have moved out of harms way
#poetry #poem #poet #spiritual #ethereal #isolation
rain with the cool day
windy
make sails in the quiet rooms of my house
let them billow
sailor on the sea of poems
vast aloneness
Noah building an arc on a hilltop
sailor on the flood of a vast aloneness

put on Dylan’s The Bootleg Series Volume 3
sit in the recliner chair
close my eyes
I want to be in love
I want to wake beside eyes
that look at me
I want to sleep in a shared room
#poem #poetry #poet #love #music #isolation
flowers sad
not understanding why
the sun attacks them
petals like melted plastic
droop like curtains
cracks in soil like Bukowski's
old face
at the bar
the last love on earth
will be a flower
#poetry #poem #poet #climate_change #flower #planet
heat melts my metaphor
night only
a means
to tomorrow
sleep is fragile
the air
is tempered
with discomfort
Greta wagging her finger at the sun
#poetry #poem #poet #Greta #climate_change #planet
night of poems
in my old way
finding in myself
all that has in the world
gone away
imagine in myself
to bend down to a flower
beneath the stars
#poetry #poem #poet #isolation #flower
days like
withered flowers
I can no longer
heal
but accept silence
as if an angel’s
voice
#poetry #poem #poet #isolation
I could get drunk
but I don’t anymore
don’t dance to
Wild Thing
when my heart’s sad
like I did
before

Friday
morning of
philosophies
each silent as
a feeling
unable to
translate but
sense
the sky announces
its protection
blue and white
sunshine
day
and somewhere
Mary’s hair
shining
#poetry #poem #poet #sky #love #isolation #feeling
I’ve been listening to Bob Dylan
daily
he’s easy in my heart
and thoughtful in my sway
he’s blues offer skies
I want to be a bird that flew
#poetry #poem #poet #Dylan #music #isolation
what is a feeling?
subtle to another
signal into the ethereal
for their awareness of me?
#poetry #poem #poet #ethereal #feeling #spiritual
for now
there may be a star
with a heart
looking back
for now
that’s enough
of love
for me
#poetry #poem #poet #universe #star #isolation #love
furniture is the stillest of things
I do hope there are spirits
that sit on the lounge
I do hope that
#poetry #poem #poet #ethereal
might be
old fashion
to be looking
at stars alone
might be
like ancestors did
still wondering the same
thing
in the same manor
of alone
#poetry #poem #poet #stars #spiritual #love #isolation
love’s such a beautiful thing
it can hurt
‘cause it’s pretty inside you
even men wear flowers on arms
#poetry #poem #poet #love #flower #isolation
nice to see the sky
with grey clouds
in a blue sky
nice to see the sky
making up its mind
to give sad eyes
their rain
or the others
some sunshine
#poetry #poem #poet #rain #sky #sun
I look at stars
and I wander from love to God
to Armstrong to Spock and Capt Kirk
to America to Ukraine to Iran
and I wonder where is the heart’s shelter
#poetry #poem #poet #shelter
I can put myself inside
a Dylan song
I can be sad with love
and acoustic guitar
I can wonder at Bob’s talent
and Bob’s heart
and how a voice such as his
can find me
#poem #poetry #poet #song #Bob_Dylan #music
dull morning of grey cloud
sky like a grey jumper
the sun does not make its crosses among the curtains
yet the Earth will make a sermon in rainfall
though I cannot translate the lyrics of the rain
but offer my silence to its audience
#poetry #poem #poet #rain #spiritual
wait
have you seen how the sun
comes into my house
how it looks
for me?
#poetry #poem #poet #sun
swan
you have raised your arms
to part the curtains
the sun
falls upon you
the lake splashes you
I am certain
#poetry #poem #poet #swan #love
soft wind
will you let out
your hair
shake it
for my eyes
#poetry #poem #poet #wind
my love flesh don’t heal
when it is torn
I’ve tried the tender salves
upon the metaphors
of my heart
but it don’t heal
#poetry #poem #poet #love #isolation
like a parched flower
faded jeans
faded t-shirt
blue & sun
in the sky
birds being
just birds
clouds drawing pictures
for silent people
sun loved
flower
an invisible hand in mine
Gaia?
#poetry #poem #poet #Gaia
write your self
the way the sky
writes its self
#poetry #poem #poet #authenticity
I purchased an Edifier MP230
small speaker
It’s Bluetooth
Dylan is inside it singing
I carry it into the bathroom
I undress in front of it
I get into the shower
I listen to it
some rain
has my heart
