• étoilé

    Byjucasso

    deep tears escape down cheek
    parchment wither crack
    time wrinkle face
    abhorrent act

    raise gracious rage diligent glass
    endure stimulant
    regardless of age
    your silver glow encrypted

    turn a moon conflicted
    dark night surround by daylight
    puffy cloud wisps conspire
    sail into wind for hours

    turbulent seas make men tremble
    seek women in their dreams
    row galleon sail on
    air current fly eagle off the distant coast
    boast choppy seas
    frantic panic in the Atlantic
    lost to
    praise the sun
    waves warm feel thaw
    golden rays upon the day
    begin to melt the seagulls play
    find
    étoilé the star of guidance shine
    tell me I am yours that you are mine
    in all the mention of the time
    whisper words soothing kind

    swim with the fishes is there time?
    ask for kelp all for brine
    an ocean of love may mend the ship
    that flow from the heart to save the trip
    though rushing water swell and dip
    welcome moon it’s half past noon
    we’ll view the view and get there soon
    before the juniper bloom in June.

  • tin stars distract

    Byjucasso

    tin stars distract
    lite the dirt the beam compact
    combust/react

    lovers woo
    envelop lovers woe
    thoughts you knew you may not know

    swim sea undertow
    deepest waters crash
    soaring seagull cry

    loneliness will tell you why
    you haven’t got a friend nearby
    to care until the end of time
    a virtual ascend

    happy fellow warm mellow
    moon low world cold
    in that old familiar way

    salmon spawn against tide
    blue fish run away
    fishing fleet fish for meat
    sell it by the bay

    Fall skip into Winter
    fell on Ice/slip no grip
    darkness whisper whimper

    so cherished is your sleep
    you haven’t heard a word I speak
    nocturnal wish surreal
    murmur in realm of dreams.

  • the distant summer

    Byjucasso

    the distant summer
    aloof in winters bare
    fallen snow follow
    soon left the swallow
    bird of flight quiet night

    sky violet light cool blue azure bright
    mixture rain and ice
    the fragments of a fixture triangular angular suffice
    spare change the faculty cries
    mammoth hysteria the autocrat experiential

    mental prowess experimental
    illumines potential
    be well the time elemental
    glow ever gentle reverence The Messiah
    shy away the dependance survival

    semi-conscious streams realize dreams
    chase tomorrow looking back archival
    notes sing of spring sanctuary
    every living thing in memory
    find fraternal favor a humility

    bear roses in-enmities
    recite sweet sentiment
    play instruments of merriment
    regard the cold with wool and glove
    forgive the world with love.

  • the witness

    Byjucasso

    peace to you I love you sweet old soul
    that tolls my heart from head to toe
    screams a musty woe
    the wanton heart deep in grief the disbelief
    critical hysteria ridiculous child at your feet-pronounce the grounds
    astound the lens
    those cornflower blue eyes
    wince since when
    from
    the angels pathological past fascinations a
    world evolving ego sobs in mist-
    grabs as big as bliss through
    sand and silt so much I miss the milk
    of human kindness all but spilt
    marble eyed warblers fly in threes
    appreciate the hours spent in trees-
    as gentle as a summer breeze
    to fall down to my knees
    as need so desperately receives
    in ancient pain I think of you free
    and easy in the day
    in other ways
    a holiday to wake in waves
    blue grasses green reeds yellow leaves will not grieve
    wake me from this dream perceive
    the witness waits for God it seems.

  • serenity

    Byjucasso

    slay the dragon of disparage
    burst like a fountain at dusk
    emancipate the chain of loss
    found are the grounds to walk
    away
    at the end of the day
    traffic going every which way
    head downtown
    place papers in a purse
    face the evening things could be worse
    final chances undo a curse
    that drown sorrows shattered
    getting fatter nothing mattered
    until stifled air hurled me to the floor
    not strong enough to bear the weight of worn
    a mighty tug upon a heart of hurt
    a dangerous flirt with everything
    inert-I heard the gentle calling
    of a girl sleep-walking in the world,
    falling from the river bank into
    a swirling stream away from land
    swimming with the tide far out
    to sea-letting her go the biggest part of me-duality in identity-do
    not suffer endlessly-climb the rocks serenity
    and let it be
    a dream
    in thoughtful memory.
