MY RIVER

2002 | Self

[Neuromancer]

BUT DIFFERENT

My rhythm is a river
Flowing

[Neuromancer]

SIMPLICITY

No Alchemy can refine
Love's smile...

[Neuromancer]

ON BROKEN WINGS

Imperfect dreams and fancies

Find flight

[Neuromancer]

TO BIND TIME

Move with the light forward, brave
Shining

[Neuromancer]

 

    

	PARADIGM Rainbows taunt the Winds of change Hinting

   

 

[Neuromancer]

BEYOND SEEING

Wisdom fails where reach and depth
Ascend

[Neuromancer]

 

    

	BEFORE THE COMING My soul's bareness stood stark, grey, Revealed

   

 

[Neuromancer]

YET TO SING

Winter's stillness waits
Patient in the quiet dawn
Life's labor - Art's song

[Neuromancer]

BUT REACH IS IN THE EYE

Smears and smudges mar my strange
Stroked hues

[Neuromancer]

DENOUEMENT

A season of grey
Tarries on the river's edge
Brooding bareness spent

[Neuromancer]

VII

Time and place do not change
Nor power, thirst nor air
In a transitory dream you choose
Illusions of the light
Upon a desert bare and bane
Where bones of indecision lay
Scattered in the night

At each turning find your face
Amidst the myriad spinning guile
There is no higher dream
Nothing to restore
Save a single silent soul
Adrift on a sea of transit
Lost to that solid shore

There is a final desert
In a distant final land
With faith not hope go forward
Stride bravely in the sand...

[Neuromancer]

IN THE NIGHT SKY

If you shine on me
Midst the darkness
Then love shall be
My light

This world may be a reflection
Cast in a distant eye

But in the airy moonlight
Where men and Gods draw nigh

You are my faithful compass
We are just I and I...

[Kay Syrah]

forgotten

dark skies referee
all that is and should be
ere all that is made is

[facedown]

sue me

Uh, oh, they're getting close.

[facedown]

May you have a restful night.

[Neuromancer]

DIDACTICITY

Strong Passions cloud what is

Not what's not

[Neuromancer]

And may you....

[Kay Syrah]

Your selflessness
is the dew upon
the morning web
A pattern for
the coalescing
moisture and
a lesson
in the design
of generosity.
Your lover
finds himself upon
your elegant lines
without demand
and all who see your
remarkable manifest
spirit settle upon
the shape of what
we should be.

Didacticity

contemplating
tripartite mysteries
water, web and shape
all made manifest
each in and of the
other, One.
not so much teacher
as seeker.

[Neuromancer]

AN EARTHLY SKEIN

Weave light's lesson

From patternless

Lines

[Kay Syrah]

Skin
yet light transcends
the containment of
integument
