No Last Goodbye

You never really lose a friend

forever in your heart

Truant both to time and age

their love will not depart

You never say that last goodbye

with feelings much too strong

Memories real as real can be

—eternal they belong

Free Of Structure

I think a lot of my name

but little of my signature

The letters left bleeding

as they die on the page

Endorsing a memory

in the hearts of my readers

The words free of structure

—immortality assuaged

Last Domino

When does pursuing knowledge

become undone

Letting intuition

take over the day

 

Why does raw intelligence

die zero sum

Factually blinded

—last domino played

Repudium Tempus

Time

divorces from memory

Moments

refocused sublime

 

Lost

in sequential detachment

Freeing the message

—unsigned

Straight Emes

Words serve the meaning

and not the form

To awaken the morning

in spirit reborn

 

Each phrase as created

each couplet of verse

In praise of itself

—the structure to curse

Tanabata Sama

People in love

say many things

only lovers understand

Hearing voices

ringing bells

that time cannot command

People in love

go hand in hand

to course the Milky Way

Promises made

as joy unlocks

—forever and a day

Last Refrain

Headed toward oblivion

my voice adrift below

Each chapter that I wrote carefree

buried in the flow

  

Standing on a rocky ledge

whose cliff calls out my name

My last and final step awaits

—goodbye my last refrain

I Dub Thee …

Being self-titled

aristocrat pure

Heraldry solemn

 liege a du jour

 

Knighted in fealty

 loyalty’s throne

Crusading triumphant

—honor atoned

Night Stalker

One who sleeps

with dreams unwed

—can never divorce the beast

Veritas

When an honest man says nothing

—you forever hear his heart
