  • Tripping

    The man on the train So full of pity Regards my misery And I, I disappear Into space I reappear same place, Like a pulse And the light In its glory, Fills me Dead or alive I’m not fussed It’s all the same, I get up again Rise and fall I know it all, And…

  • Sapphos library

    After what seems to me a lifetime and a crummy one at that – I walk into heaven, gliding along its smooth paths, and it’s lawns. I approach a building. No one is around but me. The building is in the centre of some grounds. It is white marble, with Greek columns and goddess statues…

  • My hand my heart my head

    With you My head is wrapped up In a lotus And tho the flute Is not really there You play it, enchanting Lady mysterions We dance Between dawn and dusk And THAT Is the meaning Of Eye in Cosmos Cal Kalve

  • Another walk (again)

    We are mad together This ground on which I tread, And me Of which the real and imaginary Is just the eye that perceives Heaven or hell, the ground on which it rests, reflects I feel like a moon A night at peace, at rest, Alighting blessed (I live!) My laughter and love, and all…

  • “Slings and arrows”

    A crow atop a pole Is hooting blackly Violin strings Meander down And voices pass crowded Wind to my hair Whipping me around I enter the cavern Where I’m told to go Flames forge Peace of earth The light within Me and her overcoming The iron press Of the whole human universe Thud of soft…

  • Morning kaleidoscope

    Majestic Earth With your pink palm leaves, Bring G to me On your breeze On your leaves Over suburban rooftops In your morning or night, Across the orange sky Awash in an acorn A heady realm For us to dwell, make love, and cuddle Great Earth bring me G For my spirit soars Between her…

  • A near rhyme (of Nietzche)

    Envy, woman to woman, is a major obstacle against women’s advancement. I felt like writing that because all I’ve ever read about patriarchy is that women are victims or have somehow been coopted by men in the perpetuation of the order. Firstly, at the outset, humanity is the ultimate predator. To claim one half of…

  • Howl

    Coming from an ascetic background, I speak partly to myself My tension is between “opposites”: spiritual/material, good/evil, light/dark, male/female. Tho queer theory and feminism show the similarity between these tensions, interweave  manifest more tensions and do not ALWAYS equate. Examples – lesbianism, the sexual act, pleasure, and the body. All these have been equated with…

  • Walking blues

    Woke up alone this morning A lament The colour, shape, size of the test Limping thru a haze of hate In present shape Smell of roots Feet planted into present Sound of fate A bugle (why a bugle?) Trumpeting herald of my morning Her announcement A dawn breaking over Erin, Like that longing, Flame on…

  • Breakdown of my heart

    Like a square mirror Cubed into triangles, rainbows, rectangles Through which gleams dark light Softly polished moonlight Fragmented into two lives One half white, one half black, yet parallel, Fingers interlaced With sea that washes between the two Pulled this then that way Moods shaking or smiling Rising and shapeshifting Moon reflecting water In a…
