1. Breathe
Breath touches me,
Whispering softly
No words
No touch
No Looks
Just breath
It is enough
2. Heart
The feel of you
Is different
with eyes closed.
The look of you
Is different
With eyes open.
The sense of you
Is different
With mind closed.
The truth of you
Is shown
With heart open.

Mad Poets of the Fall
CONCATENATION
We who assume
The limitation of flesh
And the tyranny of time
Reach back and
Reach forward
To what it is we
Were
Are!
Engendered of spirit
And cast into
Oblivion
We do not lose
All of who we are.
Of you and
Myself
I take care
For we are
Only one
We are a fire
Made substantial
By the wood
It ignites.
We are breath
That takes
Us into ourselves
Where
All that IS
Is love.
A poem of love

haiku oh
the ultimate kiss
lingers softens and devours
and you hold your breath
haiku timeless
the old dragon shrugs
her scales shower molten flakes
slits glint glimmer green
haiku observing
that quiet motion
as hand tucks hair behind ear
a quick look a sigh
haiku joe
persia siamese
big white puddle in armchair
a silent miiaaow
haiku now
i must go she said
uncertain stilted silence
fine he said i’ll phone
haiku uh-oh
broken emotions
a sharp laugh from hard corners
a hidden soft look
haiku life in the big city
saxophone blares blue
i sit in the lace curtain
synchopated stare
haiku primordial soup
life beginning new
a green thought in a green shade
one awesome leap too
haiku being
white tokoloshe
body being erupts in joy
what do you see blind?
haiku akiro
artist expression
free flow thought entangled mind
poring emotions
haiku nath
i love you baby
stay my everchanging moods
threads link dark feelings
haiku ons land
dassie blaas verbaas
wie kan die murgbeen pyn keer
ouvolk knik sy kop
haiku astal water babies
oom eugene krap kop
colonise their culture dear
obliterate all
haiku heights
earthpower outcrop
lifeblood flows into road cut
erect the fences
haiku five years
unexpected you
came in ruffled my con
you worry me some
haiku aiki
to create power
first be very calm quiet
then eye of the storm
haiku the way
one mobility
relaxed rotation one breath
one sinking centre
haiku mique
index silver ring
evokes memories of you
your hands almond eyes
haiku gary
a view of the lights
river of life passing by
up here on these heights
haiku basquing
je m’enfou i said
these dreams so good of you
je t’aime je dirais
haiku for us
urban wasteland sprawl
televisions and driveways
where did they all go
haiku dominique
satisfy my soul
oh the five short years we shared
so don’t rock my boat
haiku who
other eyes reflect
yesterday is a breath away
apocalypse now
haiku icy blind
petre rapp snap crap
fades to bliss obscurity
i see blind and you
haiku billy
am i blue or mauve
what a little moonlight can
do for you she said
haiku front seat
loose shirt car bizarre
bodies soft pulse deep convulse
ecstatic white flush
haiku early birds
warm shrill nudge stumble
tear threads between sleep and wake
don’t waste dawn rhythm
haiku violent water women
prophet is a fool
standing on the edge of mad
god is a girlscout
haiku master
soft flow and speed hard
extension into beyond
ringing bell booooiiiiing…
haiku kurtz
every man must
travel into his dark heart
and find who lives there
haiku the other
subterranean
where dark takes on new meanings
a-maze dumb mothers
haiku burn baby burn
your bedraggled hair
anchored in reproachful spite
where did the time go
haiku toadmeat
a highway at night
rush convulse eternal scream
crickets snuff silence
haiku no dreams
dignified walking
is what the old have to do
to hide soiled undies
haiku kara-te
stan the main boss man
blends and directs the changing
the spirit endures
haiku abyss
leap into the chasm
as i jumped she let go
i whipped up away
haiku ag shame
t albinoni
adagio in g minor
music for sad films
haiku let go
the shadow region
where mind clings to rockface tree
solitude clings sigh
haiku untouchable
everything returns
and nothing remains the same
the river of life
haiku love
some days you wear green
the right colour on that day
entwines your aura
haiku goddess
sixty six fire horse
chaos and turmoil surrounds you
engulfs disarrays
haiku ice we
the calmness of you
is blissfully unaware
shattered spent remains
haiku cat
blue eyed william
dives his shoulder at your leg
purs n sits n purs
haiku dive
when you dive under
curving away through the blue
the rhythm divine
haiku sweet j
mottled hazel eyes
expresses more emotion than
your serious mouth
haiku one
visual tension
that i could melt into you
wrapp’d in n around me
haiku real
we spent endless time
hush you are in a story
i overheard told
haiku hey
here she comes again
comes on like a woman
unfolds like a child
haiku alone
late at night she comes
treads lightly on my eyelids
body arcs away
haiku cafe
as you talked to him
your aura reached out to me
i knew he wasn’t there
haiku inhale
inhale melt clouds
surging extended flow glide
soul surge in ribcage
haiku remember brown eyes
don’t you always find
the closer we get the more
i forget your face
haiku enticed
at cafe le chic
you leant across the table
i floundered at last
haiku you and me
about you i know
nothing and everything
soulsmate and lover
haiku here
we are here timeless
connected across oceans
endless bliss moments
haiku come on in
unexpectedly you
irrespectively ruffled
you worry me some
haiku see
in the field we meet
the valley of living life
out here there beyond
haiku are you ready
die to delusions
wanting the truth and freedom
give a fierce struggle
