Heart of a Sea Captain

My Queen     Calypso

unknown

Earth     provides beyond my eyes

Infinity is here      emptiness in space

Time creates strengths in weaknesses

Horizon my jail-cell

virgin-eyed-sunshine

brevity sows Sunset’s exclusivity in eternity

Sunflower sours in absence of light

Lullaby      larghetto in melody      lily-pads listening

Fire waters my knowledge      scars bleed memory’s life

Tree leaves incriminate their roots with their second and third faces

Rose’s nature remains     smelling fresh grass     the drowning vase

Wind’s tempers threaten my canvas

without River’s purpose

Cloud is nothing

spiraling in a drifting Path

Wind breathes through me      my breath bites cold

Rose is immortal in Ruby      stoned-to-death

Mountain crumbles      weathering within

Polaris finds me lost      skipper of the sea      awakening      keen
