To Swim

This contract? It ends
I don't wait for men
It's now, that was then
I woke up, I win
I've learned how to swim
Amen

Significant Other

God is my partner, so please understand -
I'll never be tethered to woman or man
I won't play a part and I don't meet demands
Unless they're my own and on ground that I stand
I keep neither cuffs nor a ring on my hand
I do all I want and whatever I can
Alone is illusion - I know who I am:
Supported and courted according to plan

Sediment

Like sediment sinks
Slow down and rethink
Don't settle, but sleep
Awaken in peace
A wind will upheave
Expand and release
As ripples, you reach
Wash, rinse, and repeat

Rebuild

Weather harsh, window sill
Ants are art - do not kill
Shopping cart, poison pill
Put it down, please be still
Fall apart, wait until...
Watch us start, see our skill
Follow heart, with free will -
We are smart - we rebuild

A Rose

Like the light comes through cracks
I'm a rose that grows back
In full bloom and intact
A high vibe and impact
In spite of and in fact
I'm on point and on track 
Free of fear, love from lack
I am better than that

At Play

These birds sound like scissors 
Wings clip cut away
Seams burst, sundress withers
It's dismal this day
My words blend with blizzards
Do dreams die or stay?
Deferred - dead like winter
But always at play

Taurean Today

Let's be Taurean today
We'll have what we want and our way
Great food and good sex and high pay
Soft sweaters and leathers with lace 
Put assets all over this place
Own homes in all fifty (one?) states
Invest in the best real estate 
Rent rockets and timeshares in space
We'll build through our will, how we say
From scratch, off our backs, made to stay
It's Earth - here's our worth on display
We're bulls and we rule, so ole'!

Give and Take

Eye and socket: sight
Lamp and outlet: light
Man and woman: life
Plus and minus: might
In and out: ignite
Give and take tonight

Color Therapy

Peach fuzz, white fleece
Pink Ladies in Grease
Grape jelly, Greenpeace
Blue eyes, Siamese
Bright yellow striped bees
Magenta, Rocky 
Bullwinkle/peri
Majestic, pretty
It makes me happy
Lifts my frequency 
For real, and free
No, seriously
Color therapy

Flower

At my window, left and right
He stops at a center site
While not weak, prefers not fight 
Rather speak than spray with spite
Balanced he in black and white
Blend of sun and lunar light
Flower, be my friend this night
Help me learn and earn my stripes

Honor Swan

Honor swan, on water skim
World we walk and also swim
To a lake on land - a limb
Bridge of both we dally in
Ballet and the Brothers Grimm
Mr. Christian Andersen
Teach us time and time again
Be and see beauty within
Go in grace and only then
Shall an outer shine begin

Justice

By my beak, inside my caw
I am keeper cosmic law
Sacred speaker rule of God
We all reap and also cause
Feather deep in dark and flaw
In each weakness, reach this thought:
Brandon Lee, as he, we saw -
Justice must this come of ka

Magic Act

I'm in deep and below
And I sweep as I go
I'm pitch black, but I glow
Witch's hat, white halo
Magic act, raven's show
I come back, and then lo -
What I speak shall be so
This is fact, now you know

Pond Fish

You call her a dumb bitch
But that's how you run shit
The under your thumb trick 
Inexperienced chicks
An equal would know this
Because she's outgrown it
She cannot be gaslit
And wouldn't put up with
What fun is a fight fixed?
What good in a game rigged?
Come play with the big kids
No power in a pond, fish

Faline

Faline of the forest, a childhood friend
A face he adores where he goes in to swim
A princess in storage for when he is prince
A courtship of courage where means are built in
Through fire and the warring by sporting of men
He's always supporting this doe he defends
A doorway to home and to father fawn twins 
Their love is a force and a song without end

Blacklist

On a blacklist
As he speaks this
Not a weakness 
But a death kiss 
For a blue throat
On a scapegoat 
From a fame cult
Full of turncoats
Murder, she wrote

Obsidian

Human obsidian, black lava rock
I'm what you were wanting, but not how you thought
I rip through meridians where they've been blocked 
Exhuming insidious crap that's been caught
What's holding you hostage I see like a hawk
And much like the merciless raven I knock
Defenses? I'm sent with equipment to drop
With God as my witness, I will never stop

To Last

I will work until I pass
Then I'll send ideas in mass
From each story in my stash
All the animals I ask
Flower petals from my past
Future faces yet unmasked
Every incantation cast
Inch of intel I amass 
All I write and telecast 
What I do is done to last

Bring About

Saturn, how I see myself
Neptune, what I know but doubt
Mars in what I bring about
Venus, how I balance out
Mercury, my pretty mouth
Jupiter, a joyous crowd
Moon, make sure I'm on my route
Sun, stay with and shine throughout

Communicate

Out of time in outer space
On my own at my own pace
From my heart and in my place
With my God and by His grace
I commune and I create
This I then communicate 
I relay and we relate 
With my words articulate 
We are all love incarnate

You Knew

You knew you were beautiful, knew you were blessed 
You knew you were talented - more than the rest
You knew when you landed how you'd manifest
You knew you could build at your every behest
You knew not to screw with these truths God had set
You knew not to prove you could do that, and yet...
You moved with your head from your heart when we met
So too how you knew would your blues be in step
You knew, you still do, I do too, so reset

A Body

A body of water, a body of work
The body of Christ via bread in a church 
A heavenly body in our universe
The body electric as was Whitman's verse
A body to hold all our light here on Earth
A shop to repair where this body's been hurt
A body of evidence 'til we are sure
Our God is benevolent, holy, and pure
