five second thoughts (afew poems)

[grey helm]

Light Despair how you are no more.

There came a light despair
One winters day
When those bones that chew through muscle ached
Like a closing despair.

Infringed without a mountain, it came, like a wound without a cause.
Through the door ajar, box room, you where never there.
Not mine yet dwelling within my mind’s eye
So I wont close them, not even for sleep.

Such dwelling,
Me here, you there.
An ocean playing home to the journey.
Like prison bars or obscured sight.

My panoramic hart despairs
In flairs it corrupts and prepares, the rain isn’t here and all despair.
A common thought couldn’t share
In all this despair.

Though time treats us. And repeats us to this hour,
Yet days pass, as they will, and still not sight of what I wish, only despair.
As grass grows only to tire me
Nothing sent out of spite nor love just weary un regretted words, despair.

Sufficient though I BELIEVE
How can this be, how can my ache be reminiscent to nothing because are you not there?
The world keeps you like a corner out of sight
And my ache will suffer still
Oh how came this light despair?


To Peru to prey.

To Peru to prey,
Your sin taught me to drink
Of the mother wretched.
My confession turned me on.

To the humble heat of the day,
Like animals like animals ever are.
To seal me between four walls.
To hell and onward this is Peru my dear.

He has seen Weimar from the glass towers
And danced in halls meant for “lovein”
He has preached himself beyond a soul
Now demon beckon before his stance

And in Peru my dear
We can make white noise in church
And in vain this confession is
Your sin they turned me on.




Five second thoughts,

Believe today may unwind the treasures
Hidden deep
Five second retreat
Five second dreams

Pre-conceived escapology
Truant absolutes
The hand holding past times
Five second lives

I had five, second thoughts though not in one line
They existed without numbers
Deifying logic of geometry
Stealing me away from time

And the second thought was of the first which planned to have a third
Though lines never exist to be tread
Not with bare feet or logical minds
They are deceptive like our humble talk

Five second thoughts
Or
Five, second thoughts
I will not just give anyone a second thought.
