Yet across the gulf of space, minds that are to our minds as ours are to those of the beasts that perish, intellects vast and cool and unsympathetic, regarded this earth with envious eyes …

What creatures these
What maddening tide
inside
the very bone of me
A cat
a raven
and a quill
all poised to kill
the equanimity of living
one day to the next
Open wide the door
The floor it tilts
I’m quilted in
this shadow dance
the dark’s insane romance
Went to the fortune teller
Had my fortune read
I didn't know what to tell her
I had a dizzy feeling in my head

Greetings from the joyous dark to all infernal friends 🖤🖤🖤
Once we had
the Sun of Heaven
Lady Moon at night
Now
we have climate change
money-crazed sorcerers
conjure toxic waste and fume
to poison this
our living room
The stench -
charred bones of dinosaurs
and long dead trees -
brings us to our knees
Art: Desolation - Raquel Forner
Above the clouds
we floated wide
beyond the world we knew.
A kingdom cast
and strangely wrought,
where I will be with only you.
So let us go, my love, my own,
we’ll fly the skies of blue
on wings of sheerest gossamer,
aloft on love so true.

At last
I have arrived
and will roam no more
Fling wide the door
tremble in fear
The Master is here! 🖤🖤🖤

He brushed aside
my angry attack
Skilful riposte
sharp sting of steel
I watched a red rose flower
at my breast
