A nothing from nowhere cast his words to a world wide wind, hindered by periphery.

Moon Message

Moon in October,
my sinking pale heart,
glow on, slip beneath
whispers in this dark.

Grasping dull blue skies,
douse stoic streetlights.
Block by block it goes.
A dungeon burns bright.

Sad escape, you know?
But, soft gloom returns.
Full black trees, white dyed,
when comes an ash urn.

I lost my brother
many days ago —
envy his freedom,
wish he could know.

Oft you hide away,
your pearl chafes white rings,
heightens memory…
of not a damn thing.

Sits on warm car hoods,
dull in country lanes,
he knew all the words.
I joined in refrains.

Savaged leaves will meld —
crisp, lumen-latch wet.
My gaze crystallized:
Nothing to regret.

Time on this marble
very well was spent
Opportunity —
harvest…fullest yet.

Somewhere up in you
I dream him beyond —
know true position
ripples in white ponds.

If you would import
messages from me
to him: we should join
in Tranquility.



10.15.19
8.29.25 revamped for Mike…RIP
40 lines, rhyming

"Through this world I've stumbled
So many times betrayed,
Trying to find an honest word,
To find the truth enslaved,
Oh, you speak to me in riddles and
You speak to me in rhymes..."
