“Just beyond the bruised lips of consciousness.”

from Birds Again

~ Jim Harrison

The stars once bright in eyes now faded and gray

viewing the world through tangled trees

a purple haze of permanent contusions,

amid barren thoughts of rotting leaves

the result of love damaged beyond reason.

“I’m hoping to be astonished tomorrow by I don’t know what.”- Jim Harrison

Eyes

enrapt

a vision

in lace clad flesh

fueling fiery imagination

of entwined limbs, supple skin

the lightest touch

sensual

urgent

stare.

“So I sit on the edge, wagging my feet above the abyss”

~ Jim Harrison
from Bridge / Dead Man’s Float

Falling

Dare I to leap

into this black abyss

The Heart of He

His heart is not an instrument

for my supple fingers to strum

sweet lips are not a sacrament

of divine grace which to succumb.
