I Waged a War of Words
that became a War of Worlds
that became a War
that became
and then Just Was.
I Saged a love by Words
that became the love of Worlds
that became a love
that became
and then
I Aged a World of love
that became a love Wild
that became a love
that became
a child
I Raged a World of Numbers
that became a World of letters
that became a World
that became
a Song
I Maged a Word of mind
that became a Body of thine
that became a World
that became
Just in time
i gauged a light of source
that became a fateful choice
that became a fate
that became
Rejoice!
I caged a Week of Days
that became a Week of years
that became a Week
that became
God Song tears
i Aged eternal and slept awhile
i awoke to the music echo
in the cave of craze
in the cave
i sang
i forgot the words were mine
i forgot ever thine
i forgot to pay
i forgot and now
i pray
i raised a world of ghost
i chased a world of dream
i cased the world of seam
i lazed an empty beam
i heart host
lo! now do i hear the rifle call
echoing my names---how
the memory falls---how
we lose it all, somehow,
we lose it all---and how
we find it all again
we find each other, we lose each other;
we shall find each other again.
husband and wife,
brother and sister,
friend out of friend---
the river flies out,
and we loop around the bend

ReplyDeletethose autumns and winters
ReplyDeletecame and went
the passing of a cigarette
the body’s aged
though has not grown old
the mind of fire cannot be spent
though many slumber by a mage
their fortunes pale to purpose bold
a serpent king his dragon cold
we have no end of memory
we have too all springs and summers
we are the sun power eye
where a drake begets a king serpent
where God is my Light
kneels the rose child
to set commanding gaze
against the realm of gold
Jackstaff of All Time
does fly a Jack
tread not on a coil
lest your seas should not be calm
lest your winds should not follow
lest your seas should boil
lest your winds not carry you on
tomorrow
