I skip because I am

I skip for the joy of life

No point in walking

no point in running

to skip is to live

the saxophone player was
not off base when he looked
into my face and said,"Debussy!"

we're living him
we're being him
again

the tones of his poem(s)
live on
shine on
through us

Bussy's

this day has piled up
like a heap
to weigh me down

don't wanna drown;
the time to play
's been like a cup
filled with wild smiles
and scented hay
with swaying seas
and glowing gowns
and sounds so deep

i shut up now
and sneak away

and quietly leap
to sleep.

(good night!)

anagram anti-
pro - logic
for sequence
against snippets of syllables lying around
uselessly minding their own business

gather the lines and streaks of pens and puters
gather together
words from remote corners
collect yourselves
dust off your calamities
and live today
like a talk show guest

lipstick smeared
make-up on collar
all for show

words strut your stuff
but let meaning stay behind
and set a spell
with some toast and jam

a sweet tremble
to vacancy

sweet dreams

anemone, future bright
lay down your words
to revel in the land of peace

deb-ussy?

So many ways to say one single word....

to skip to my Lou is a
tune I will croon .....
as my ears stretch past
the spell that was cast
in ancient times...makes
all my writings turn into
rhymes and when I perform
I stop on a dime....slide......................

The bottle grows shallow...

the music grows louder...

and the need for speed...

increases

the mystical -a of more than
we could ever dream ascends
those lofty steps to those clouds
that linger at night above black forests...........
