 UP FLOWS the RIVER pt. V 

A calm excitement every time I see her name,
or find myself just near her,
or just see her picture smiling back at me. 
The one in bed under the covers. 
Her eyes smiling nearly as wide as her grin. 
I sink into those beautiful brown eyes. 
Deep
Caring
Skilled in many arts. 
Wisdom beyond her years. 

But what really gets me is her open heart
The way she loves me. 
I go to speak, and only verse and songs spill out. 
My mouth waters, 
my eyes water, 
I need water
And as I turn to face her
She’s there

Drip 
      Drip
           Drip

Like the first ocean. 
The first rains 
My thirst dissipates
But her lightning catches me

Unprepared, 
Her electric touch shocks my system
My being surges
My life comes rushing back!

Was I dead

Color floods my vision
Red, warm red light
Orange, my heart glows orange

My heart explodes
And she scoops me up into her arms 
Here I stay 
Here I find everything 
I didn’t know was missing

Here I find 
A completeness 
Wholesome 
Again

It takes at least two
to feel Oneness
I reason

Then
I laugh

Then 
The love returns 

I melt into a small puddle 
and then once again, 
She collects IT all 
For some wise new
Magic
of an Old forgotten
Spell 

It WORKS!

She, IS
Thee

I am
She

she 
ME
we 
B

I

UP FLOWS the RIVER pt. IV 

From which sphere then does 
such a loverly being descend?   
What ancient earthen land would
create such a woman of talent and beauty?
How did you escape?  
Surely that which created you must 
also be over flowing with beauty and skill. 

What does a land do now in your absence? 
Does it rejoice in its lonely abode? 
Does it thrill in your pilgrimage west, 
or sulk in the beauty now subtracted from its whole?  

The mother and father of such greatness 
must surely be proud, having divined the 
only name suitable for such a child. 

Angela Angela Angela. 

Name of she who left the wing-ed 
ones in their clouds of light.
Is she the cause of heaven’s war? 
Is she the reason heaven spilt?

Was it she in the garden that night, 
who bit the apple and set man free? 
How is it that I find myself engaged 
with such a marvelous being as thee?

Perhaps I slumber, still in my bed?
Is it all just a dream inside my head? 
And what will be should I awake?
Will I find the world false and fake?

And should I wish to sleep instead, 
which drugs could keep me here?
In her arms, held close and near? 
The Elixir of love have I found in she?
Or is it she that dreams of me?

When she awakens will I still be?
Am I the apple? 
Will her bite free me?
Or will I find that love is her art.
Cellulose & graphite, I just a part?

I slumber still wishing not to wake,
For love is just & only what you make. 
My mind a light. My fingers a-twirl. 
This little one an entire world. 

Words flooding out as I lie here in bed,
My flask boils like my heart and my head. 
Ahhh these feelings now reacted, 
refluxed, then extracted. 

All done with care. 
For the beauty of her, 
is both terrible and fair.

Drop 
     Drop 
          Drop “Another?” She asks. 

   As I look in her eyes and drop drop from my flask.

Each drop
             drops a whisper. 
Each drop
             drops in her ear.
Each drop
             drop
                drop is my love,

spoken softly my dear. 
❤️
   ❤️
      ❤️

 UP FLOWS the RIVER pt. III

Crack

The first appears as she looks
up over her glasses at me. 
Crick

Walls erected for protection
begin to lose their footing. 
    Creek
         Crack
           Creach

A small bit of forgotten joy
oozing out of a hairline fracture
causes the dense shell to split,
                         Sccreeek
                               Craaact 

First I See. Sight. Then sounds
Stone walls starting to Crumble.
Walls. Who commissioned them all?
The walls use?  All forgotten.
                                        Crash

With a silent snap more stones tumble 
revealing a hidden heart. Strong but fragile. 
                                 Bang
                           Thud
                       Slam
                
HITTING the ground near where
I lay. Just us…then…
Then the bright-liquid
red-life, pouring out 
I become I, say a vow,
in an Inn, somehow. 

Here. I still lie. Lying still.
An old foundation? 
Ruins of an old wall? 
Covered in dust, & blood? 
I look up then, only 2C-Her 
looking down at me,

My heart pounds, un-vision
as an unborne unsees
There is a brilliant orange
light that blinds now me
                            Drop

I feel it on my face now;
warm. gentle. soothing
Its now THE FIRST DAY,
the first light, but first…
                            Drop

I must shake the dusty blood from my body. 
This rust, no its dust and is it?
Familiar? Yes.
Why? trouble remembering how I came to be. 
A small memory flashes back.
A seen Scene. I’ve Seen IT saw her

I see her see me
IT Sees
Not I


wall.
A crack,
…and then….ahhhh then again.

Warm and red
Pours liquid into me.
Eyes opened-closing airways 

The orange light momentarily
overtaking my vision. 
Then I look to my right
and then I see her. RED & light
The brightness blinding,
the source is good I write her. 

The liquid’s redness coalesces. 
A beautiful face reappears. 
I smile as…

I see her smile and its much
much too large on her…. 
no face, just a heart & a grin .

She’s sewn me back up.
For what was this wall needed then,
strains my memory to comprehend. 
And the light? A Valkyrie? 
Sent down to some warrior slain? 
I’ve seen no battles.
No wars of pain.
No hordes were fought
No banners flown. 

Perhaps then an Angel sent
down from Clouds on Nine? 
But how? I do still breathe.
Please I beg…WHAT???
I think NOT that death
has reached me yet. 

I hear the squeak of rats. 
I see a long iridescent snake 
begin winding its-elf up a tree. 

The large strong tree trunk is familiar. 
It has planted strong roots.
Reaching deeper.  
It has a soft bark,
small folds… no, its wrinkles!


Then I becomes I. 
It’s skin, blood, branch.
Roots; then before I,
is thy my Angel
Must I prepare to rise too?
Skyward? Home?
but she means to set me
back down. Gently. 

Down from protective Trees
In high grass with the bees
Down into unknowns seas

Water washing stone
at my feets, now..

I am alone
I am no we

Again

Am
I
?

Plants rustling nearby as I write a note
a pleasant fragrance on the breeze.

Alive again?
Alone, not I.

Yes. 

The walls no longer needed, 
I lay down my spear and shield
And she twines around me. 

Gasp

A rush of air fills my lungs. 
This is Life. 
Yes. 
I feel it rushing back

And she continues to wrap her arms
around me. 

Then I no longer feel it. 

Apoptosis?
No.

Mitosis?
Not this. 

Then she is painted on my body. 
Then I on hers. 
We look into each others eyes
And we continue bleeding into one another. 

Then she whispers,
“Walls are for prisons my dear.”
The final verse of her spell

I awake here in my bed,
in my newly formed body. I turn 
to find nothing, or is it everything?…
there is? All of creation somehow
here in her, or is it in me?

I no longer can feel a difference . 

Strange stones lay scattered beside me. 
I do that which seems natural 
and build a small temple to her.
A suitable place in which I give thanks. 
Not made of stone, for stone is cold. 
Nor on that ancient plain where they 
might fall crumbling in ruins. 

I build the small temple in my heart. 
Its Eternal. 
Filled with blood and red light,
Not infernal.

Warm fragrances issue forth, 

A beacon. 
A Call to worship

I answer with a call 
as I reach out to her.
Amino
Angeliquor
Angelamine
Age of ALL

Hear my song to you.

Hear my song to you. Each word. A Prayer Made of Love.

Composed from Admiration. Sung with Gratitude.

Drink the warm drink. Let it enter you. Open up and drink my words.

It is

always
The First Morning

I feel a soft brush as it strokes my face.
The hair of each bristle glides across my wet cheek
Oil and water begin to color me.
Another stroke and my second heart breaks
My soft warm blood-filled compass feels freedom as the clay crumbles and the needle spins round to north again.
The nitrogenous, oxygen-laced gas surrounds the small red engine in my chest.
Familiar? foreign? it’s very difficult to determine.
It permeates everything.
I can’t escape its touch.
The soft perfume is drawn into my lungs by another stroke of her brush.
One more strong pull of her hand.
A whisper
I struggle to hear.
Pointless until,…
She paints my ears with her words

The hissing gas.
The first sound.
The hissing gas.
The first song.
The hissing gas.
I no longer remember.

The first music. Proceeds the beginning. The first stone. Proceeds the wall.

Bubbling up from the hot pressurized deepness, slowly cooled over millions of years, the stones fell in love with oxygen.
Before flowers.
Before the large lizards that bathed in the light above the trees.

Before the trees.
A sweet cologne coughed up by the planets first inhabitants. In love with each other, the gas and stone merge.
A child is borne of this Union.
It crumbles to the cavern’s floor.
Before the first Wooly Rhino
Offers its flesh to feed her children.
Before the first hairs from its hide
Are collected and bound.
She made her first brush
She visits the cavern
Scoops up the dust.
In silence.

A million years pass as she’s sings the next verse to me.

Then a bridge. Long. But easy to traverse.

Another
Verse and my eyes open.
Or is it my heart that now sees? It’s not important.
Color has no relevance in dreams. Conveys no information.
Holds no weight.
Offers no insight.

She draws her brush across my chest with another verse. Crack.
A small rusty tear runs down the stretched canvas of my face,

It drys and crumbles into a fine red powder. She collects that too.
Into her pouch of Magick it’s placed. Gently.

She knows just what it’s for.
She sees just what must be done.
She smiles up at me over silica, boron, and something made of ancient lifeforms,
something forgotten
by even the ancestors of the short-nosed elephants.

Another verse fills the air.
Gently I draw another first breath. A terrible fate awaits.

There.
Do you see it?
Just behind that large tree. Do you see it?

Large oversized teeth gleaming in the African dusk. Covered with what will become the first words. Lyrics to a song she sings many years from now.
A mind more aware than we.

Educated over terrible amounts of time. Quicker, Stronger, more Clever
Sharp black claws that threaten separation. Flesh from bone.

Her from me.
Me from the world.
The first and final ending to all stories. The silence of her absence is hard to bare.

Then another verse drop drop drops from her rain soaked lips and…

A warm golden spell pours over me. She gives birth at that exact moment. Mother to the first spells.
The first Magick any man will know.

It has a different name.
But the meaning is the same.
There is only one true word in the world anyway. Regardless of how many languages learn to speak it.

And another verse
Her power grows.
More familiar. Also less.
Its creative power lies in its ability to destroy.
No teeth or claws stand a chance.
First encountered as we cautiously descended from the trees. When we first stood on just two legs to see
above the strange new grasslands
Turned to look into each other eyes
and for the first time held hands.

It’s the first morning again.
It’s always the first morning. There is no evolution.
There is no such thing as time. It’s always only ever been… The first morning.

It’s the first time. Now
It happens only once you know. That is what makes it true.
It’s the first time. Again.

I squint my eyes.

It’s the first time. I see The glow
It’s the first time. I see The light

It’s the first time. I see The flowers
It’s the first time. I see The difference.

It’s the first time. I see The…

Drop Drop

Drop

There is. Every Thing.

Again

The first morning. The first flower. The first rain.

There is. No Thing.

Drop Drop

Drop

For the first time. It falls
For the first time. It’s named.

For the first time.
It grows.
I open my mouth and drink it in.
The first rain hits the dry clay of the earth
And the flowers near her feet explode with scent

It’s the

first morning

Again

It is.
the
first rain.
You
are the
first woman It is.
the
first morning.

Again

The first kykeon. Consumed The first secret. Whispered. The first elixir. Prepared. The first temple. Erected. The first psychopomp. Born

As
You
Drink
I see through Your eyes,

I feel through, Your heart.

The last kykeon. Consumed. The last secret. Whispered. The last elixir. Prepared.

The last temple. Demolished The last psychopomp. Dead

Together

We are together
We are
the temple We are
The light
We are
The morning

Then as

it falls

We are The rain We are
the flowers

There are
no walls
There never were

It
is

now

The First Morning Again.
