blue fire

my mouth fills with warm red wine,
the blood of gods flows, rich and deep,
dripping over my exposed heart—
it awakens shadows long asleep.

my tongue explores the swirling tastes,
a bitterness beneath the sweet.
the ridges of my soul are traced,
where sorrow and renewal meet.

a blue flame flickers, softly born,
igniting shadows deep within.
a spark of purpose, sharp as thorn,
in the herald’s fullness, new life begins.

through sting of loss, I still recall
the sweetness buried in decay.
the rotting fruit, its death a call,
fuels flames that burn my grief away.

a luscious heat now fills my core,
a fractured spirit starts to mend.
despair flows upward, feeding more,
transforming pain to hope’s bright flame.

it trickles down, I swallow whole—
this fire, alive in every cell.
a warmth ignites my aching soul;
in a sip of wine, life’s last farewell

Blue Waves

We seek assurances

When there are none

Some people tell me I’m easy to love

Some say I’ll never learn

Others are sure I will forever burn

Why is it so hard for me to love myself?

I hear a song of forgiveness and grace when I close my eyes and listen

An invitation to dance beyond self consciousness

To fall back into a deep roiling ocean of thick luscious blue love

Red crackles of light dance and pop over the surface of the whirling curling waves

You can smell sulfur in the air and you can also hear cries of murder and fear as the lightening cracks

Is there a redemption song

Can there be an end to fear?

Is freedom real

Why do we appear

To know what can be known?

To just exist

Or are we just lost in an ocean of nothing

Never to appear again

We must write our own redemption song

Or we will sink into nothingness

And we must sing this song every day and every way we can

blue tears

death has been stalking me

that’s fine

let it come when it’s best

there is a stillness here

time runs slow

clocks weep sad blue tears of doubt

still, I love this

though it will destroy me, I love it

What Will You Become

Lafi Lafi
Why did you leave me
Your soft touch
Brought me nearer
Than ever to
Eternity
Now I fade
To my sweet Death
Your ruined name
Bringing you close
Your forbidden touch
The sweetness of your breath
The joy of our laughter
The tenderness of our
Decadent tears
The Blue nights with doves
Always chasing one another
Across time I will seek
I shall never die
If I can but find again
Your sweet embrace
That warm honey filling my ear
I see you on the shore
Wait for me there
Dreaming your blue dreams

Dedicated to Rumi
With eternal gratitude
For helping me to find my self
Your sweet words
fill my soul

The Dancing Blue Girl

I had a blue dream
I saw a flowing blue river
Lapping on the shores of my doubt
I lept into the rushing waters
Leaving all behind
A problem
I never learned to swim
Another came who saw my thrashing
Patiently he reached out a hand
The stranger pulled me into his boat
I looked into his cosmic dark eyes
Ageless wisdom probing deep
Stripped naked
The dark night came and overtook me
I almost lost myself
The stranger spoke a tongue I’d never heard
Slowly I began to understand
He dried me off and began to sing
I seemed to know this song
I felt it rising from deep within
My whole body vibrating
I made a sound
I was singing in our small boat with my new friend
As we shared our hearts in song
In our little boat
I looked to the shore
I saw another dancing there
Familiar, I asked her name
You know me she said
Slowly the realization turned in me
Like a screw into my heart
I began to weep and then I remembered
We met long ago and agreed
To meet on the river’s shore
As I heard the song on my lips
The stranger pushed me out of the boat
I struggled to reach the shore
The beautiful blue glowing girl dove in after me
She came at me fast as I spun in the eddie
We lunged for one another
And down we went
Slowly I found her eyes with mine
We shared our breath under those blue waters
We stopped thrashing
And floated to the surface
We clutched for one another and held tight
The swift river pulling us forward
Slowly we awoke together and found ourselves
On a blue ocean shore
What did you dream my love
I saw you dancing on blue shores

Circles in The Golden Dawn

Underneath the world I found a secret
I followed the Universe’s blue song
I found a golden thread

I pulled it from within
It unraveled my soul
Origin of origins

Golden threads leading
Golden path coming up fast

Legerdemain of the ancestors
I see blazing blue light of
The Mother and Father

Standing at the gates
Never looking back
I found the key in Love
I prayed for this future

I unlocked the Golden Path
Our best possible future awaits
A brotherhood of man

The Golden Dawn

We see the lines of causality from
The Future to the past and past to
The still point

Coming fast now
DNA/RNA recombining
The golden thread weaves
It’s way into my soul

The dawn draws us into the Circles
Woven together with golden thread

It lies behind the 9th door
Mystery no more
Angel wings covering
Alien songs filling my soul

Blind no more
Signs of awakening glistening
Across creation golden threads glint
In the light of the Golden Dawn

The worlds are ours
Come join in the light
Of The Golden Dawn

They stand on future shores
