Hi Ku Cat

flip the switch, lick and abandon
ship for a moment of peace
skipper off deck — jump
unaware, overboard, join
the rats, soak in lies,
poison and F U N;
become happier, healthier,
a highly functional,
productive and emotionally viable
rat being
 
knock, knock
death and plight
failure of foresight?
Perspective free, a monument erected for englishmen to see.
deadly calm, silent
still, in a storm
...unreasonable
...unsustainable
...irrelevant
Where is my coat?
I can lead myself out.
Thank you, officer.
 
i looked up
into the blue
hoping to catch a glimpse of your trail
westward-bound
everything was pale
you were too far for these eyes
and i was only cryin' inside
 
Call to Duty

They marshaled us'a'pon the dock that day
left us in the sun, sweating out the city softness
ramrod straight the Queens great quay
waiting for the tide to turn
then board and sail away

Your sight,
as attentions called 'bout face!
f'ward march straight up the gangplank
find your billet mate forget about the look of her
that makes your gizzards ache
and all that blue, blue, blue 'twix her n you
'fore home port's found once more
 
i hope i never go blind
i want to read you till i die
but
if i do
will you read your words to me
will you

so i may take them
turn them, in my mind, 3-D
touch them, taste their texture
as you voice-paint a world for me
grow once more un-blind to beauty
to all your loving heart can make me see

I'll read whatever you want
spin words of white and wight
maundering light the morning
breaking over the trees to the east
be your feast of aural delights
spread on a checker boarded tablecloth
if you should go blind

If I should go deaf
let me read the phrases of your lips
consume paragraphs of finger tips
hear every word you say with your eyes

And if I should die 'fore all tasks are done
build a pyre, toast my bones,
carry me to the hilltop
shake me loose to settle under the cool green

Repair work [frown]
find the pliers...
..
Mute the tv
all's gone quiet as lurking cat's
 
the silence of a cat's ear
as it twitches
focuses
centres
is a silence stretched to the point of hearing
just as butter licked from a paw
is a taste to quivering whiskertips
 
the dawn deer and rabbits
may tell the month
but he's lost amongst the daisies
when it comes to counting days

a calendar of petals
lets him know the leaves will soon turn brown
but moondays and highdays
keep his feet from touching ground

:eek:... you are laughing right.

What use calendar's and chronographs to a man that lives in now
Surprised to see the morrow's come; he wonders how
long the windows' held his gaze and she has held his mind.

:heart::D

seeing as you almost missed your flight out, thinking it 2 days away, i'm kind of getting used to it :rose:
 
My birds gone to roost
tucked in the branches of the Elderberry
peeping out a melody as she settles down to sleep
rustle of feathers then silence
a silhouette is all that's left
and the promise of song at dawn
 
fed well on berries she'd make sweet eatin'...
spread her feathers
nest in their pliant warmth
bury your head under a wing
hear her bird-heart flutter
sleep the sleep of a drowned man
soul a-smiling
 
Watershed

Your words
are always like the voice of a gentle stream
singing water song, floating me down
between shadowed banks to meadow lands
where placid rivers urge me to sea
in no particular hurry, slow journey to your heart.

elemental song

such a soothing lilt to your words
float with me
endurance
yet still my heart races
limbs tremble
thinking of you
and all you mean to me

breathe for me
when i forget
i'll warm you with my fire
when winter bites
be my rock
to stand on when all the damned world's shaking
and i'll carry us down
carry us down
to the sea
