12 Habit Glance compelled & again by hard hips & steaming metal, whipping rhythm & cries for promises near or worlds buried. Every face its name yet knowing fruits little. I remember ragged nights, wet leaves blowing off the sill, knee to knee with him, her, we, hearts twist for warmth, high complex of matter. Wracked blowings, seeming gone. A shine & a tale, seeming gone. ****** Lorn Dream a sun of flesh & flame, its buried scent in my blood, its memories how I watched breezes of daisies in a half-moon’s light, its given some spectral new world I cannot imagine, its home where desire at rest, smiling to stone. ****** Gaol I dream the cage within the cage & humble pass in & out. The water sparkles like kisses from a trusted mate & yon smoky white god points not up but around. A sore vow among kind leaves remains: to sing & love. ****** The Cenacle | 59 | October 2006
13 Compel What convincing to live in a men-hewn world, coin’s twist & bullet’s bite, kings lord orchards & direct vengeance, which small kindness beats back the bomb? Crumble in every fist too, ancient kisses remembered & sung. ****** Helpless Call it God when the hour rests soft upon your cheek, the faces laugh & everyone kisses the stone pipe in great fraternity. Call it God when sunlight tips every heightless wood up there, when the air itself weaves sugared song through this hour rests softly upon your cheek, faces touch & withdraw through swathes of darkness & call it God as familiar bed becks with its sweetheart smiling through your webs & chaff, knowing truer the wreckage of your heart fine & holy, alive, grateful, take her hand, let life’s glint of a dream draw you pictures of the possible, call it God as new day streaks through them & something else reveals. ****** The Cenacle | 59 | October 2006
