Poetry: Last call

has a twist for me
Goddess, was I wrong to give him a try?

As the moon peaked her radiant glow,
my boat drifting like a leaf
a gleaming shape, I float by
barely awake, half dead was I
dead-pale my skin, as if I said good-bye

beauty shows within my deep blue eyes
loosened hair spilled all around
in this river, my secrets lie deep within
whence comes my peace?

I have love and pain


when comes my blessed release

Oh Goddess encircle me,
love me
sing me into peace
strikes the truth within

faint of spirit, cold and alone
with a metallic grin I see
my Goddess, sweet Goddess
her firm moist skin, her cherry red lips

she kisses my brow, my cheek, my chin
sweetly, she whispers the truth is there within
your thirst will come back, like it did before
oh weep no more, thou will be called on for more
through devoted eyes she swore
I am your friend, your Goddess to love and adore

the vision of her gentle face
I'll remember forevermore
with a radiant finger to my heart, she stilled the roar
flame to flame my darkness was devoured
she sang to me under light of the moon
the wind and waters did roar
pulling my boat on the land
she sat me upright upon the shore
set my passion for life budding once more

as she trod upon these rocks, this shore
returning to her palace once more
the clouds moved over and the sun shined once more

I fall whispering as before,
here alone, but lighter than before...

    They Sing Of Joy




    It's been a long time
    Since I sat in the gymnasium
    And watched a school play
    My granddaughter
    Is a four year

    The stage has been set,
    The lights go on brightly,
    The camera springs into action,
    The cast take their places,
    They have been

    Last call for Kahlua
    Last call for gin
    The Grey Goose is in the bottle
    It's capped; he's staying in

    "Last call"

    thru the eyes of time

    the loneliness becomes apparent

    bartender, washing with a dirty white towel

    curling smoke rides
