All these golden bars buried

All these golden bars buried
Beneath plastic flowers
In a finite field for
An infinite of hours

The sound of the highway
Finds no audience here
The stones slabbing spirits
Marking the disappear



Moments pulled like phyllo

Moments pulled like phyllo
For full transparency 
Seeing the circumstance
I knew inherently 

Pulling further until
The holes begin to form
And with perfect vision
I see the misinform

Ancient religions ring

Ancient religions ring
Their God never responds
Painted ceilings of saints
Other silent beyonds

With dim candles burning
Failing to blaze a trail
Too many prayers left
At the kneeler and rail

Certainty unbalanced

Certainty unbalanced
The pedestal rocking
Rotation is spiral
Tall strangers are knocking

Predictable todays
Can have surprise outcomes
Fractions of fruitions
Hardly ever lump sums

Taking X to cradle

Taking X to cradle
Unknowns can fall apart
But if they don’t, I’ll sing
A lullaby of heart

Someday they may find prism
And what we know of light
Will Roy G. Biv, or else
Will rock all day and night

Gigantic obstacle

Gigantic obstacle
I burrowed underground
Turning inside out and
Emerging newly found

Beyond these decades wall
With my third set of teeth
A wiser survivor
No need to dig beneath

In these my last chapters

In these my last chapters
What is written is wrote
No need for editing
What was said is in quote

Regrets and loveliness 
Things I would change and not
Growth and understanding
Have led me to this spot
