It's not just about being alive
It's about being aware.
oh what a fright
our old age is in sight
not ready for night

we age all together
though each person in turn
will wake with a fright

and when it's all over
we're placed in an urn
and then it's your turn

warning you are reaching the end of the conveyor

feel your spirit stir
waking from these dorment years
and stagger into love

trust in gentle time
to right your sleepless wrongs
and bring a quiet peace

and lay the ghosts to rest
and all your sins — release

as all the threads break down
and words unravel

beside each fireplace
the ancient stories told
and retold once again

drifting in the chimney smoke
across the countless centuries

it feels so cold now
sun all tangled up in trees
as the dim light fades

The Infinite Return

i stood at the edge of my memory
and found the same beginning
not a circle
but a spiral returning in disguise
each time
the wind is colder
but the fire is mine

in your soft down skin
and your wide open valleys
detachment fades — away

winter drinks the sun
imbibes the very stuff of life
then turns to spring

above the flat snow
stark tussocks of withered grass
all that remains — now

silent winter witnesses
whipped by the ice cold wind

our hand picked tea leaves
cross oceans of hot tea times
to touch thirsty lips

and her smile — where can it be
with her fingers stained by tea

bonfire smoke swirls on the wind
sliding up still streets

right at the back of my mind
raking over the past

a bitter north wind
slipping through the needles
of the pines lament

rocking the cold hard earth
into a deep deep sleep

in the fading light
of a cold winter's day
geese flying south

across the valley
smoke drifts in the early mist
and windows light

and children call
their final games played out
in the gathering night

a cold winter sunrise
lights my hearth
as cold now as yesterday
and colder still tomorrow
