One doctor suggested walking when patient not able to sleep, so then body knows – it’s not bed time now. And besides, amount of sleep needed varies from body to body.

But just body knows: insomnia – a complaint of unsatisfactory…

tossing & turning

Long Nights Cold Moon shows
always the same shadow side

how come, the winter missed us?

your pained face is looming

musical virus

pinterest.com


In the book  “The seven planes of existence” Vianna Stibal talking about music, tones and numbers as universal language. When we are able to see music in everything – we can heal with tones, we can change the structure of things; change the vibrations of something that harmful, vibrations of disease…

fan of Johann Strauss' waltz

the beach



the beach
on the picture – you
from other side
it’s comfort
knowing you are safe
storm surfing wind
in our footprints
someone else’s riddle
searching for way out




come back to earth



leaves come back to earth -
more colors, more choices before
solitude of winter

last treat

I saw her wings
trembling impatiently
above the watermelon,
towering at the bright plate-
last treat before departure...

Under blanket of storm

wallpapercave.com


Under blanket of storm
as an indolent voyager,
droplets mentoring tone,
"Marseillaise”, not a blues, -
it’s a fall, no burlesque -
ah, you right, -
I described it earlier:
introductory lesson of
bravery,
haiku assertive,
discernment of life…


Mauvais tone of me moaning
at full moon liberation,
dance routine in plie -
language fails to support,
sailing ancient site
I rewrite consequences...
sudden visit of angel,
knight of sword, ace of wands…

Process

hills of music
books have a new flavor
at the piano top


diminished
dream shows a shadow side
issues for everyday


generated
as part of creative flow
from havoc


inside the margin
unpretentious narrative

with no commitment

on the path of transformation

a voice

tumblr.com


…I threw it for later -
as a boomerang zoomed back
scratched the throat of vowel
Ah…..h….h…
scream screwed through
threaded it fell
shattered over blunted floor
that chromatic passage
entangling the emptiness
long golden lamp necks
blindly curious around
the hills of forgotten music…

empty shore...
they gather here
among the seagulls
wings tremble eagerly
of the forthcoming flight

full moon glimpse
in my house of three
Hermit’s light
found its need
stars wrapped in the earthy wounds
wait for healing rain

bridging

pinterest.com


bridging unseen & unknown,
I merely lake your cracked thoughts,
through the heart chambers run
impatient vibes to splice parts
like ancient Inca have constructed
their close-fitted blocks of granite
without any mortar resilient against
the future earthquakes…

as moon grows larger

pinterest.com ~ 'Heart Chalice' by Paul Jenkins
from Gallart.com


pouring into cups
my friend and I
connecting stream
I felt your mourning
awakened on other side
the sky –
cracking wacky clouds
raining
as moon grows larger
what comes in your life
to create a shift
emptiness -
where the heart takes you
next step
a voice
let it sound
before you talk
 
Life is simple
just know what you love
enjoy it
every day
even in misery time
do it anyway

from the distance



the deer 
neighbors stare at you
from the distance
