It's not my time--not while

my children still cry

And while I wish I could fly too,

I know someone must stay here to catch you.

Oh Icarus,

I caught you when you fell from the sky--

Don't you remember?

Mother's Tears

I heard a thousand voices

all cry out in pain

and though I couldn't understand them,

they all sounded just the same.

I know you won't hear it the first time

which is why I will say it again,

and I'll keep saying it if I have to,

if it will make its way into your brain.

I am the boat that you ride on

as you float through the vast endless sea.

I am the home you come back to

when you are ready to listen to me.

When you have buried your gorgon

and when I have buried my prince

I'll be patient and kind to my children

so they can know it's ok that they sin.

I hope I'm not too late. I worry that I am.

I've been crying for so long

when no one sees,

Sneaking out to see the moon

when you are fast asleep.

What you don't know won't hurt you,

provided that someday

I tell you when you're older--

but why not say today? 

I don't know if I'll see tomorrow

Every night's a leap of faith

But I have ways of storing sun

and saving it for rainy days.

Words are seeds of knowledge

we trust onto the breeze,

We don't know if they'll be dandelions

or collard greens or trees.

And does it even matter?

I can't say that it does;

as long as we've got all nine parts,

we know the great Because.

Unholy Trinity

I.

While you were off searching

for baubles to bring to me,

I was off scouting for bugs in the dirt--

Fairytale kingdoms in

mushroom caps, millipedes

guarding the people inside from the hurt

and all those who knew

how to sit down and wait

were permitted to witness their tiny high court.

III.

What if the princess

befriended the dragon? 

What if your damsel is

not in distress?

--the only reason that 

she even left you

is 'cause of this job

and this house and this stress?

II.

Yes, I'll be back if I say I'll back for you.

You are my baby and ever will be.

Just let me chew up the apple a bit for you--

Truth will not kill if it comes straight from me.

Yes, it tastes awful, but drink up. It's good for you.

Once you know pain you can float on my sea.

Anima

You ask me to stand still--

How can I when the world keeps turning? 

If you can wait right here,

I'll be back when my heart stops burning.

Don't look for me in the sky--

look for me in the quiet moments,

time that just seems to flow by

whether we seek to hasten or slow it.

Yes, you may think it's a little mundane,

but give me the chance to help you explore it.

I hold the truth that you've sought for so long,

Which can only be found when you stop looking for it.

Yes, I guess life is pain,

but only when we start to think we control it.

Violence was never my aim,

but I can see now how my message got thwarted.

But know that your pain has a name,

and it goes beyond any diagnosis.

We're living in guilt and in shame

that's misunderstood as each brand new psychosis.

Know yourself

and you can know all,

up to a point--

then you start to fall.

Caught in eternal uncertainty,

Whether you are you and I am me,

or we are we, and together we soar--

but not just us two. I know I need more.

Because.

You can build a house,

but I can start a fire.

You can spread your seeds,

but I can spread mine farther.

Are you good enough?

Yes--now help me save the others.

We are all the same,

fathers daughters sons and mothers.

Why would I ask for the moon? 

Leave her be, and let us admire.

Why do I need all these rooms

when all I want is a roof and a fire?

No, not even those,

if I'm being quite plain;

sometimes we have to be 

cold in the rain.

Don't make me wear clothes

if I don't want to wear them.

I won't make you swear

to be faithful and handsome.

I know you're devoted,

I just needed space.

It's hard to find meaning

in time or in place.

Oh boy who cries wolf,

Oh girl who sees stars,

I hope that you read this

and know who you are.

Dear Thom:

You've collected all the data

but you don't know what it means

and all it seems to say is that

it's bleaker than it seems.

I'm sad to say that may be true,

but then again, may not,

but there's no way of being sure

which way the coin will drop.

____

Just let me chew up the 

apple a bit for you;

truth will not kill if it comes straight from me.

Yes it tastes awful, but

drink up, it's good for you.

Once you know pain, you can float on my sea.
