Burying the Sword

Pig Pens and Playgrounds
I scribe the scribble
the station of nations
my heart crosses lines
of feathered clouds
to dot the day
with wolf howls
native dances,
fast feet flopped
flaming, in the frenetic
fields of promise
where the only glory
is the sun in a sky
of no ceiling
always calling
always healing
forever feeling
raining down on me
all that reigns for a short time
day tripping on bad dreams
dished out and delivered
talking with an upside down tongue
I see the world
as a slobbered bath
where word bombs
short circuit good intentions
I build roads removing rocks
piled high along the banks
another fence
another claim
of contradiction
I scream inside
this skin hungry
for freedom
somewhere past
the fight of each day
past the lies
of losers lost
in local lunacy
their faces stuck
to the ugly news of sirens
someone hurting
more than them
seems to bring
some queer satisfaction
something bigger
than surrender and a sigh
my name is Andy
how is my assonance?
check my bell weather well
I weep in the wind,
I cry in my cave
I love in my loss
I see all things good and bad
it's the processing
that pulls me into pig pens
of mud and madness
until I howl back
at the moon,
raise my hands
up to the stars,
lift my heart up
to the heavens,
push my pen
into a poem,
....as all the world
becomes a playground
once again.

Today I watched the children dance in hot sand
an audible ouch, then dash for the sea
all is better when wet, the body mirrors light
there is a time for soaking in, a time for reflecting
cold salt water refreshes the senses
the sand is cool again against young feet
wet footprints soon to be washed away
in the tides of a changing moon
There is a vengeful man who writes bad metaphor
biscuits and gravy, some strange war inside his head
always pretending to be something more than he is
There is a woman who claims to be a friend to all
the two meet in a virtual paradise
the muse runs free from loose hearts
in a world of all is well, all is never well
I saw the devil dance between lines
read the warnings written between fallen stars
I played horseshoe with a deviant until I rung his neck
it's all a gambling game of twenty one
the rules don't change, the facts always come to light
luck plays a small part, there is no HIGH NOON SHOWDOWNS
I feel the cadence of the wind today
how it starts and stops in step with my thoughts
life is not always like that, on time, clear to tired eyes
those that nibble on the future end up in the past
we rise up on Sunday's praise our God
by Monday we fail him in some way
Life is a trail of choice
a chance to forgive and forage
to feast or fester
to fence or fret
to feel or fend
to file or fail
to f................ck up
or face it.
I see the forms of a thousand graceful dancers
naked in a new night sky
caressing the glow of stars
my mind moves on past the constellations
I no longer believe the false intentions
the weak are always exposed
then lifted up again by those that have been there themselves
or, left to drown in the mud cake minds they chose to keep
Once, when the air was clean
when the Apostle Thomas still had a welcomed voice
when the Dawn was something more than trapped
there was a great energy in the stars
Those are the days I will keep inside my collection of time
when the yellow butterfly flaps wings standing still before a new petunia
I will remember a Castle where I first read her
speaking of a man who went to Europe
I saw the pyramids of Egypt between her lines
these days all I see is death and bitter poems
leading further to decay
I welcome the spirit of the ages
all things that are broke are either dead
or waiting to be fixed
I have tools
I have time
above me the big dipper takes a sip of my solutions
reminding me that some things take years to die
