a WRITE_1
of passage

passage: from περᾰ́ω  (peráō)

to go from one side to another

to pass through, over or traverse, cross, esp. over water

(intransitive) to penetrate or pierce (of a pointed weapon)

And I think about how it would be

to have you in my space

to feel your mind in my mind,

to be so close to you:


and everything touches,

and I hear your blood

and mine ringing,

like a peal of bells.


(and if I am not careful I will

lose myself to the clamour)


And I think about the feel of things,

how touch can be like water

how sometimes almost burning

how space can disappear:


and edges blend together,

and I see your heart

and mine glowing,

like a kind of sun.


(and if I am not careful I will

find myself starlight swimming)


And I think about how space and light both shine,

how light flickers and dims

how shapes present shadows

how curves create mysteries:


and here thoughts merge and mingle

and you open our minds

and I open our hearts

like a kind of sigh


(and if I am not careful I will

find I'm you and you are me)

I weave light

I splice time

I s-t-r-e-t-c-h


the space.


I make glimmer

I show moments

I s-h-a-p-e


the breath.


I wish stars

I gift stories

I m-a-k-e


the paths.


I shift shadows

I spark memoires

I flow a-n-d


fill life.

DEATH BY AGREEMENT

some seem to have agreed a pact for passage.
tidings hard to fathom.

STRANGE WATERS

experimental forms and thoughts that seem to come from elsewhere

AS IT IS

here now: this is what we find, this is what we see, this is what finds us

TRACERY

second and third associations. words and shapes.

Where fairies dream (1024x683)_edited.jpg
Through Light Cover Image_edited.jpg

ANGRY RED SUN, PALE SHADOWED NIGHT

a second stab at a book-style tranche of writings. formed in the end not entirely how it was intended.

THROUGH LIGHT

first steps. written mostly past midnight through dawn. night muse visitations.

WHO AM I?

Strandloper, edge-dweller, being. Sometime poet.

This site began as insomnia. Soon there were enough words for a book (Through Light). A little later, another collection was almost a book (Angry Red Sun, Pale Shadowed Night). Then came snatches of someone's thoughts from somewhere (As It Is). Dark tidings have also been received (Death by Agreement).
Along the way there are words on a plane (Tracery).
