Locked behind the Veil

fluffing the edges
what was lost at Santorini
sea lane veins in the Dardanelles
lost secrets of Minoan Knossos
forgotten mysteries of history
just another pig in the sty
just more tears to cry
poverty of thinking
from euphoria comes clarity

and suddenly the fog lifted
listening to the rain, fall at night
summer beach wind
live your life out loud
bail out and fail out
blackening, reddening, whitening
the handsome blue, of the evening
the creation of god
angels are, by definition, fiery

late-night rain wind
New Wave mumbling
broke free of the body
see love, at the bottom of a wine glass
the rush and the tide of history
sci-fi future and fantasy past
summoning summer emotions
the limits of the human entity
reworked back to “god”

still asking for worth and approval
god of the rain wind
One star, one heavenly city
digital past; only one future
met your future self already
contradictory feedback loop
the origin of the Indo-Europeans
lost to prehistory and the early earth
still searching for the Answer

loneliness and strangers
what was known – and then un-known
abandoned by history
one thunderclap, racing through time

Always Gold

think in meme
Barrier maze vs. Barrier maze
light in the evening sky
Elevators in a dream
bridges in the sky
nostalgia is heartbreak
Clutch Culture
what did they know, and when did they know it
can’t feel loneliness, for a stranger

I don’t mind the cloudy sky
old memories, young person
happier vs. happiest
King Solomon knew the future – and the past
live your life, walking backward
you will be what you always were
secret relationships don’t last
being in love isn’t like being a fan
felt a definite feeling

someone knew; they all knew
Solomon saw the past and the future
right at the moment of daybreak
heartbroken for a time that is gone
the one with the unrequited love
need is the beginning of trust
Two parallel routes
finally, honest with yourself
Why I had to let you go

To know that it meant something
render a feeling
sentiments of the past
get up to see the sunrise
once you see things differently
something you have to give up
a secret is the beginning of doubt
who knew before and who knew after
they were waiting for the Answer

the battle against insignificance
own your feelings
We’re human because we have history
the brightest point in the universe
