Age holds cold the actions, of time marching lost

Judge and jury in a hurry victim already bared


Marks of hate left for all condemn men to stare


Perfect body left on the witness chair


There in glory told the story of the tortoise


And the hare


 


Writers weak from sleep


Keep the music from playing


Does any one care


Nurse covers me


In warm blanket


Lets me run my fingers


Through her silken hair


 


 


 


 


Some days are cold now as the mind plays with a face I can’t recall


Voice of wonder in a sunder of hope in the truth we fall


Pretty dancer in the answer of faith in john down the hall


Pitch and scream it is dream of faith gone so wrong


Intellect now set by reason limited to mime


No more music no more passion


Just and empty bottle of wine


 


Curse the darkness of a sweet kiss


Find the memory a history


Of burning bush


Cannot look


Cost of mind


And soul


 


Dash of mimic in the quick


I wonder where the dead go


No arroba of the flora


In sea black as coal


See me


Set


Her


Free


 


Wonder where the music goes


Sounds rebounding


Like a river sounding


For the long


Lost souls


 


Eyes are clear now


Yet in the flower


I smell the hour


Have to pass


A love gone


 


So she sees me


Holds me


Lets the


Time be


Our gift


 


I take her in the memory


Separate her thoughts


Leave only a warm kiss


 


Dark streams flowing


Going to a place


Feared and known


 


Lady of the lades


Gives back all I


Will ever own


 


Wish I knew a palace to share


Our bed with desire


Left in fire


Pure is better


Than true


 


Some days are cold now as the mind plays with a face I can’t recall


Voice of wonder in a sunder of hope in the truth we fall


Pretty dancer in the answer of faith in john down the hall


Pitch and scream it is dream of faith gone so wrong


Intellect now set by reason limited to mime


No more music no more passion


Just an empty bottle of wine


 


She is with me inside the whiskey


A vision I keep to help me


Measure the reality


of better time


 


Fingers push the keys


Marking music


Spelling words


On the keyboards


of kaleidoscope


Mimes
