Beautiful Mind

Have you relished for a moment

In the majesty of truth

Have you trifled for a token

Of dear Holmes’ hearty sleuth

And in so doing ravaged

Like a warewolf’s bleating blooth

For The deep pulsated paradox

Of knowledge sweetened tooth 


Come hither to me darling 

As you play with knowledge near

Come closer to me, angel

As you close upon the rear

Of the moonlight in the morning

Deftly whisper in my ear

Of the magic of the morrow 

Of the magic that you hear


For your eyes are lightened, glistened

Sparkling ever through the night 

And if but for a moment, listened

To the deafness of your flight

Still I stand here now, so awed now

In the meadow of your mind


And I wonder if you falter

Will you leave me far behind


And I wonder at the alter

Will you keep me there, in mind


And I wonder as you halt her

Will you halt all that you find


And I pray that when you halt her

You will revel in your find


And I pray that when you halt her

You won’t leave me far behind

Thank Gd

Thank Gd for my freedom

Thank Gd for my soul

Thank Gd for this moment

and the muse that

makes me whole

Thank Gd for the 

wondrous wrapped up

wrinkle in the bowl

Of tomorrows medley soup thing

breaking bread

and salty fowl


Thank Gd for the memories

Memories cannot

hold me deep

Be king rivers

dare to keep

silent whispers

in the deep

creep-like sleep

the parakeet

that cannot speak

a beat

like miep

with secrets

now to 

keep


Thank Gd

I am 

lonely

Lonely arms

in

to the 

night

Gd alone has 

given me

the hunger 

that I 

fight


And as i 

ride the

river

weighing paths of

wrong and 

right

I wonder 

in your 

freedom

have you ever 

thought to

fight

or did the 

moments

bleed some 

and

send you

into

fright

Did you want more

than you read


come and

show me

what to

write

i cannot move

the pen

but for

the 

music

taking 

flight


Today was some

thing

dreadful

Today was 

some

thing 

real

So why 

can't I

break free off

all the 

sadness

that I

feel


If I

succumb

to 

sorrow

and

acknowledge

its ap

peal


I doom my

self to

know

ledge

and the

pain of its

re

veal


I doom my

self as

call

ledge

dooms it

self

and yet con

seals


The child life

around me,

it isn't an i'd

deal


I alone have

problems,

and a parent's

movie

reel


But that's not true for

problems

that 

require you to

feel


The marriage now

is 

over

The mare

ridge now is

dead

the marriage of de

nial

draping on our

mare

ridge

bed


The mare

ridge ends in 

try ale

and the 

sea crits that we

said


Despite the

ticking di

al

that your

turning

fingers

led


Until you

did it 

once

too much

and

vanished

in your 

stead


It's over now for

ever

over now and

i am

fine

I'm not

fine


but that is

fine


for the

fine


can never

shine


The light of some

one's

sorrow

as she

drowns her

woes in

wine


And in so 

doing

morrow

leaves a 

trail of


pain 


behind
