God of the sea
The fish walk
Supersonic in their stride
Breathing through naked eyes
Talk to the moon
All fourteen of them
No one thinks your crazy
Neptune rains diamonds

Love, you transform
You’re the sun who rises my heart
Red heat that burns my thoughts
Love
You transform.
Don’t be a drip
Flow
Flow
What deep thoughts have brought you to this edge?
Silent seas, moving sands, salty breath, cracking hands
Water flows stabbing, cold
Dark waves, blow, crashing
Pulls the sea to land's end.
Where is reflection
Where do we ascend, descend
To course bottom,
Beat against rocks and sand.
Water wears away rock
All shall pass
Flow, endless
Beginning, eternal. The Maple Leaf
The Maple Leaf
I stand on a land that isn’t mine
I sing for an anthem that once excluded me
Who are the sons?
What did they command?
I tell you this
Should I be listening
to those who came before me.
I am not native to this land
Born here, yes,
not right,
privileged.
Knees connected to the ground
I beg to hear
soiled whispers,
engrained stories, heavy, granular
Clouds damage my eyes
A red leaf falls
blood washes misty
Veins traced like rivers,
spirits alive,
tangled hearts we rise
O’Canada!He Loves Me Not
The daisy picked apart
He loves me!
He loves me not?
Inside is all that remains,
Torn apart from the pretty petals
Disregarded in the wind,
My wish carried away
He loves me not.
If Audrey Hepburn was a Punk Rocker
Apartment full of boxes, unpacked
Nameless cat, Cat
Yellow New York City
Blue Tiffany's
Audrey Hepburn punk rock
Unpack the Cracker Jack,
Wear it on a chain
Hair, blonde stripes, thick, bold, insane
Play loud music, louder
Neighbours complain
Rip the guitar, Fred darling, Paul baby
Playmates, player game play
Rob a variety store,
Dog and cat masks
Audrey the punk rocker
What a bad ass!
In true love
Audrey didn’t know what to do
Bona fide punk rocker,
George tattoo
Chicken and Cat
