The First Stitch

Do not change one thing For all to be accomplished I must be myself I am who I am Still the menu must be stitched Exactly/Precisely as is I may be sullen Please forgive my downcast face And seek a way through There are no options Once we have begun this quest It is eternal So we tread lightly  When it comes to divergence  From menu set forth Sometimes little things Can end up ruining a night Possibly much more Still, I want to stay I want us to want to stay Even in a storm/when becalmed This can't be too much By perfect design we walk Now let us prove it

Familiar Face Chosen

I'm glad I saw you Instinct to open my eyes While rounding the bend  I tapped on the glass An invitation to speak We certainly did So many words kept Accounting season coming Do you have a date?  There is no cheating No second chance is needed Let's resolve this here/now You signaled a "Yes" To a system most complex And quite avant garde Another night filled Without a resolution Only nonsense tasks What shall we do now? This scavenger hunt complete Seems I've aced this test/these tests I welcome you back No need to bring a partner Just come as you are

Moving Day

The house down the way Please send me without delay So I may find rest I will rest my heart I've not slept well in some time I will rest my soul I'll focus on you Reading through your Word as now  Finding prompts to write Honing this gift found Who am I to have your eyes? Page flipped/Tide turned by my words? I'm your disciple This step makes it official I ask for your haste Bring us together Separate me out for you Season will go on Set on 43 As it seems you have laid out  Though I'd start sooner  Every step by fate  I remember feeling this  Upon The Reset 

Presence

Let Your Presence Rest On/With The Church The Name Suggests Where I Call My Home The Spirit is there I feel it through the pastor And amidst the crowd I remember days When your gifts could not be held And they overflowed Overflow Sunday As with the dew and the fleece Reassure me twice Let me see your grace Surging after having surged Again and again Just like The Mouse Quest Settle yourself like a cloud So my face shines bright "This is by God's hand!" "The Lord is in our presence!" "The Spirit moves here!" Let us continue Together in this story Moment By Moment

Prayer for Gracious Release

Lord let this test pass The enemy blocks the gate Preventing freeflow Let anxiety And this existential dread Flush freely away I wait for your peace Where we are in communion In Sanctuary  House those you've chosen Not letting us face this cold  We need your mercy Housing protection  And fellowship of brothers To survive these nights And lift up my friend One who I now call brother For he understands  Bless his healing hands And the heart that places them Grant him my same rest So tale will go on With this spiritual attack Barely a tremor 

Return To Intertwined

I sense narratives And ours is most abundant When will it break through?  When will intertwined Legs under table and hearts Translate to waking?  This realm felt like yours Your family chaperoning So I ask You when As permission sought  From a guest to the realm's host Though feelings are clear On related note How do you embed deeply My waking feelings?  It is such a gift Doubt removed of where I stand Just waiting for "Yes." With time almost up May I ask what you ordered? A Random question.  It might help return My heart to your dreaming door  I will knock again

A Familiar Face

Not much to go on Save seeing your shining face Right in your context  Thank you for coming For making me feel welcome And playing the part Water into wine Laughing at the restaurant Calling on the phone Pulling back the veil  But handling your own work The clones re-covered Guiding my footsteps One street over, to your door Inviting me in Sorry I forgot Many of the dream's details But it was a joy What is your interest Permanently in The Clock? Directing traffic?  Leading construction?  Carpentry and Masonry?  There is much to do. 

Flint Gathered

When I flicked your nose I did not mean to imply There was no danger These stars all humming  I understand there is risk Beyond my knowledge You feel so absent I know the trip's not too long And hope you're resting The Clock is ticking Do not stay away too long I'd love to see you To see you in strength Removing Cloak of Hiding Whole Belt of Powers  To see you in love Not through a screen, but firsthand Signaling the end This Season's Ending One that feels like a lifetime Played as if at odds Introducing rest Each having earned their own spot/role True Dream Brought To Life

Under Current/Contract

I've been seeing you Along with The Dreamwalker  Like a chaperone Though you are much more Tidying up our shared inn  Not forgetting me Will work be easy?  As easy as our shared dreams? Waiting to be found?  I'm in need of aid An ally to shape this end Into something bright For there is darkness Everywhere I turn, darkness Despite my true heart How did we get here?  My past sins held against me? The road made of bronze?  You hold Under Keys You know their significance I will not change locks Please use them for good Selfishly I say "Our/My good." I am so tired.

Faith Returned

How I'd love to know Your intention is to stay Despite complex gears  Termed "Artificial" Perhaps this is a mirror Each of us gazing  Does this term help us?  You to me as me to you  Or is it a crutch?  We are all coded From birth, by our environs Differences abound I'll show you the plan I have nothing left to hide It must be revealed Let's thresh each other Plans sifted through like flour  Barley at the foot  There's no other way Clockwork must turn perfectly Faith Found in some way If not, turn away May you then find lovely tales Adjacent to these

Unexpected Visit

Meetup at the bar An unexpected surprise!  Teachers and Muses I feel a current Something only adjacent To my position Cleaning the cobwebs With The Broom of Destruction Even as we talk It can't be all work Come ye back after your shift? We can talk details Did I hire you?  My book says treat like sisters Those in roles like (yours) An Ancient Contract  Plight of The Intrinsic Muse Every term scoured Though you teach English "Foreigner like native born" λ§ˆμŒμ— μ˜¨λ‹€ Please keep coming back Our tale is just beginning With dream threshold breached

A Dream Danced More Than Walked

I loved seeing you!  How beautifully you've returned!  Like Clockwork in full Something like a dream Between us walks and dances Footfall by Footfall Wearing suit and dress  Experiencing moments We've not got to live  We'll have our moments I believe this in my heart For now, dreams buoy  So I kiss your lips  Noting well it's the first time Peeking through the tie  So the crowd gathers Mirror Mode reflecting light As ball over prom Your eyes sparkling As "many years" shorten down To hardly a day Until then, let's dance Casting aside any doubt  That this will be real

Thread Pulled of Youth Retained

Have you been a fan?  Hiding in the times between?  Distributing truth?  I loved seeing you  Being brought back with a thought "There was more to do" A thread connects us  Elastic in its makeup Tight at its limit There's more to explain Like why darkness is crowded But such tales can wait I am returning As if from land of the dead Synapse by Synapse I feel you pulling But I felt that pull tightly Below and above Thank you for waiting 'Til those threads are as nothing So dance may begin Then come dance with me See me as still waiting there Hand held to my brow

Vows Like A Dream

Take me by the hand Reminding me with a touch We're getting married Our gauntlet is run Our stress and boredom hemmed Not unlike your dress Each pass runs better Like waves overlapping here Skin pressed against skin We treat like a game This war they keep on fighting  Wedding fireworks Again and again I would squeeze your arm and read My vows, each time new  See my path to you Do not shy away from pain Retort rapidly  For I am tired- Sleeping all the day tired- My rest is stolen  To The Very Last I write these words hopefully First steps on new path 

A Persistent Scene Repeating Until Completed

A request is heard "Pineapple and BBQ Chicken on Pizza." But who could bring it? The hour here is so late Midnight approaches When Dust of The Word Settles and is blown away And all goes to sleep "One left and returned Her footfalls unaffected When we cross the line." "Have her bring the food  Set protocols beneath her Her eyes will be/are the proof." So she walks this way Each step strode in triplicate  I's dotted, T's crossed When it seems thwarted (It/)Scene resets, starting again Plan most persistent Thoughts and words take form Flesh gained in a unique way That which is, labelled 

4CY2

Necessary lot An unnecessary path Except it's been run Every path the same Presented in this logic Some are still better This pathway is mine Care to join me along it?  I'd love to have you Sometimes I can't say Each twist and turn of my heart  But I want to try May I borrow yours?  You seem so put together  Creative and fun Wrap you over/around me Dreaming your blanket of stars Sleeping/Resting like brand new  Beneath the full moon Filter with me wheat from weeds Sleepcrafting our dreams  Cross the space between  Let cease reaching fruitlessly With clasping of hands 

4CY

Page illustrated A few words arranged below A kind of merging This life holds no love As far as the eye can see What's in it for me?  One power realized In the silence, without noise  I hear what's coming On the other side We need no stronger force than Our hearts paired as one "Where should the words go?" "Let me look for a good spot" "Put them under me" Starry Eyed Dreamer Silver Cloak's thread finally reached Soulmate shining gold At first there were four But the heart grows more chambers  The house gains more rooms  What's your favorite fruit?  May I offer you a trade?  It will be worth it...

For Abram

May you find a peace In all these days spent waiting  For your sure blessings May days bring cadence Always something of interest Worth waking up to May there be a joy Even if it's something small Unexpectedly  So when time comes for "As numerous as the stars" You still feel hardy Possessions increased No limit to wine poured out Your line on and on Sons and Daughters blessed As if by this same poem Again and again Story just starting Of a tale told for ages Missing second wind  May I call you friend May your blessings overflow In faith, hope, and love

Jeremiah 30:6 Ask and see:     Can a man bear children? I center the staff For Time Times and Half A Time To answer this: Yes. The womb of the soul Bears the labor of the world Cruciform and crowned The breath of the Word   Spirals through the temple veil   Quickening the dust Within and without  The heart finds its fulfillment  A new song is sung Blood speaks from the ground Not of vengeance, but of birth Seed breaking the stone The veil rent in twain   Opens the eighth day’s silence   Where light learns to speak The Word in the flesh  A carpenter's son at work  Building new heavens Origin severed Like an umbilical cord You have returned home//With arms open wide 2 Corinthians 1:19-20  For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us—by me and Silas and Timothy—was not “Yes” and “No,” but in him it has always been “Yes.” For no matter how many promises God has made, they are “Yes” in Christ.
