buy this album... my soul is in love again.
Sunday
It’s been how long?
I am a lady with a soul.
Softer than river water
Cold as the old man next door.
The birds here, they sing.
The songs we hear are different
From what they hear.
The stars seem farther away from
This point of view.
That’s alright, that’s ok.
I got my horse and my hay
And we will have a great night.
POEM
Tonight we shall have a ceremony.
For the dead.
For the living.
For my grandma.
She needs to see life.
As gentle as it can be.
She needs to see death dance on
A spider web. She also needs to
See how the moon looks
While the yellow October is here to stay.
Eucalyptus to heal her broken soul.
Tonight we shall have a ceremony, for my gram.
Wednesday
Monday
twenty seven shaped ear.
27 cents to ride the trainpack a bag and stay.
New York screams past midnight
Alaska sleeps till March.
Brown leather boots follow closely
becoming dizzy the world is spinning
cinnamon whiskey for you my dear
breakfast is such a nice time of year
don't fear for the next day
as today just started.
Friday
in the meadow, is where i belong.
New in the night
Old during the rise of our sun.
To love, to love, oh how to feel.
The clouds raise the Earth Children.
The breeze shows them the way.
Rivers swallow their worries,
While stones of the river hold their secrets.
Moss that grows, on trees that dance.
The stars will fall asleep with us tonight.
Wednesday
SHARPEN MY TOOLS, YOU PEASANT.
Why do you take away my brain when it rains?
Where does the laundry go when it’s being washed?
Do we have days and weeks in Heaven?
Do you ever wonder where the baby birds go once they fly?
The pond may shine, and it is home to the toads.
Mow the front yard with no shoes, don’t check the mail.
Sometimes, if I think too hard, my eyes float above the
surface,
Of the Black Sea. Where memories fry and ocean tides eat
you.
Sunday
Tuesday
poem
Something weird happens when summer comes. The flowers all
dance with joy.
High, high above the clouds they reach. The colors are so
vivid like my memories.
The grass turns brown after a certain amount of rain, which
comes out of the earth’s sky.
Doors that are unlocked, we race to the other side, to find
time and your grandparents.
Sunday
Can you hear me fall?
I feel like I am falling water. No one can catch me.
No one can save me. Right between your fingers I will fall.
I feel so lost, no on can save me. No one can tame me.
I can’t feel anymore. I don’t know what is wrong I don’t
Know what is right. I can’t hear you anymore. Your voice
Fades as I fall, like water down the drain.
Sinking, Sinking, then gone. No one knows but me.
Saturday
sacred land
Sometimes I don’t know where I go when I sleep alone
The feathers here, they lie on the floor. Cold.
The concrete cracks, they connect where we don’t
Here is a space where you can hide
Save the thoughts in your brain: the happy ones.
Place them in your pocket for another day.
Reach for the sky, touch the mountains,
Don’t wish to die. Days will come and go
Like the waves at the sea salt beach.
four legs on an elephant
Nothing here wishes to burn
Learn how to reach higher
And see where the stars sleep.
Love your own fires, and don’t push.
You make me get out of the way.
This love was perfect timing, you
Got me out of my own way, my own self.
I love what we are what we have.
Everyone learns at a different pace.
Learn how to accept your own fire and then
You’ll see where the rivers meet and where the oceans breathe
more than one.
Purple ledges, the sunflowers fall.
The water, in and out. Snow appears.
Rivers eat the fish kids, a stones throw.
The carpet is full of bugs, and the rug
Is on top of a mug. Don’t be fooled here.
There is plenty of water, the flood hasn’t come.
1978 was the last time I heard you sing.
POT TO PISS IN
I hate the fact that my life is a mess.
Nothing here seems to connect.
My gram calls me fat and my mom laughs.
Here nothing makes sense to me.
My human brain, is shallow but also deep.
Deeper than the canyon. Deeper than my soul.
Darkness creeps in when words can’t speak.
To me I see sadness hidden in between every
Sidewalk, But all you see is rain.
Friday
owls
Where we met, half way through the year.
The blue, it reaches a boiling point,
In between the thin layers of love, the layer
Of heat and the freezer. The place where you
Always go, where you always take me.
The car door slams, and out comes the laundry.
The year seems slow swimming, but that’s ok.
Love me Fully.
As if it could be any other way.
My lips touch you one last time,
The memories spark , here it's dark.
But I can remember the way to love
And I can see your eyes run just right
Before my life. The words jump off
The pages, so you can hold my hand
As we walk across the sea. Falling off
Like water and thorns. Me oh My
Wednesday
Two. Stand. Still.
My laundry is still dirty because the cat washed it,
While the plants are hanging, so are my eyes.
Sometimes, when I cry too much, I hang out my eyes
They got to dry too. The front door has a knob,
The shape of a plum, like my neighbors heart,
She wears that on her sleeve so the world can see.
Some things are meant to be some things are dead to me.
The difference between the sun and the moon,
Depends on how you look at the sky.
A fly just waved at me, my day is just divine.
Today we shall run to the desert and make love with
The rattlesnakes and the camels. The water here
Reminds me of my mom, lovely.
