There are times
I can think only of you
Satisfied fully
Entering that place
All leading to you
The area of my mind
Wishing no outside of border
Within the curvature of your
Flowing, pure line
Over your natural texture
That scent indigenous of you
My Soul’s Aboriginal
It is here on tranquil plane
Back in the garden
Of Journey’s Beginning
Before the fall and erosion
Wanting only You
To breathe with [...]

Sweet morning time comes
and awakens the ever shining star.
The sun peeks through my window.
“Arise…Arise…” he says.
I cover my face.
“Arise….Arise…” he repeats.
“I’ll arise when I feel like it!” I answer.
I continue to waste away
the glorious day.
Then, before I know it,
the sun looks away.
“Goodnight.” he says.
He disappears and I am
left alone, wide awake, with no light
but the [...]

(1)If you’d found a way to hold your own against the playground bully,
Would you go to school reunions now, and share old classroom tales?
If you’d opened up, so counselors could understand you fully,
Would the knowledge they’d acquired have taken more wind from your sales?
(2)If you’d stood up to your father, when he made you go [...]

(1)Young Tom visited his great aunt, until he was ten years old,
And soon after his next birthday, her old mansion would be sold,
Since she died, and he would miss them both, as nine years changed the date.
He completed school, did two years work, and started college late.
(2)At the end of his first Uni year, he [...]

(1)My first Blue Mountains journeys were on Sydney’s country trains,
With scenery improving, once I’d gone past Emu Plains.
I did not know the passengers around me, but perhaps one
Might care to play a card game, since we’d only come to Lapstone
(2)I closed my vintage fiction novel fast. So I could then look,
To see surrounding bushland, as [...]

Is she waiting in the snowfall of an unseen distant plateau,
That still lives today on Christmas cards all packed up now? Is that so?
Would the lamps that light the pathways put a glow upon her face?
Are these images of fantasies all gone without a trace?
Is she staring from the window of a house, with fascination,
And [...]

He stood on the edge of a suburb, where house windows faced an expanse
Of bushes and forest and small hills; and readied himself, with a chance.
He stood on the edge of a sunset, with houses not far from his rocks,
And somehow the sunset was lengthened, slowed up through a trick of the clocks.
He harnessed the [...]

The Clairvoyant
Little feet hastened on the grass,
To the call of a mother,
She was her mother since those days,
Days of gory crimes the two were unaware,
But there was one man, who knew it all,
He dreamt of white flashes and red rivers,
Suffered a saga of bloodshed,
Drugged himself to forget her,
Forgot her address to protect her.
On [...]

I dunno. My debut poem.
My poetry can be rather dark and not for the white-washed eyes.
So if anyone know of a “free-minded” poetry/pros/stories site for authors, please notify me thank you.
