A half a moon away
You are my full moon

A half a moon away
You are my full moon
She
is laughing
out loud
I can see
no
activity
causing
this
she lits
a cigarette
throwing
her head back
the stars
reflecting
in her eyes
I know
she is happy
and strangely
so am I
The words come
fast and furious
in my mind
until
I take my pen
to put it down
then they dance
incongruently
all over the place
For Alessandro
I see
her dancing
glass of red wine
in her hand
I can hear the melody
faintly
across the square
the parrot
is flapping
its wings
in tune
on the last day of July
I am not
my thoughts
or my feelings
Is knowledge them
and let
it float by
And God said: The kingdom is within you.
What does it really mean?
It means you have everything you need to meet God in your God state, free from your body, thoughts and feelings.
for two decades
I’ve protected
the crystal
candle holder
with my life
the power
came back on
at ten to twelve
I blew
out the candle
I turned around
my sleeve
caught it
it was
on the ground
crystal
everywhere
and my life
shattered
hands
bleeding
picking
up the pieces.
I can see her
in her kitchen
candles burning
(load shedding)
a wetness
running
down her cheek
I see
a bottle of black
spilling
on the counter
I see
her
trembling hand
filling
the glass
to the brim
I see
her body
dressed
in summer
in this winter
go limb
the way
release goes
she fiddles
on the counter
finds
a packet of Camels
she takes
her glass
disappears
from my view
but I can
smell
cigarette smoke
laced
with Jasmine incense
and I know
magic
is brewing
As I stood
there
arms
outstretched
embracing
the winter
wind
stars
above me
I know
change
is
happening
I am free
of me
Sometimes
I miss
the way
you smelled me
the way
your body
reacted
our senses
enhanced
to take a chance
