A PAINTER: RubyLee
A POET: David Anirman
Silhouettes of dreamtime drape the seasons of the night
Outlined by a promise in a haze of purple light
Premonitions of a universe where life is called “to be”
And I remain invincible before the dawn of me.
Give me depth of meaning in a mistiness of mind
Hide the inconceivable in all that can be signed
Carve me windowed hexagrams through what I am may see
And leave a diamond passage through the firmament of me
Make a world that’s beautiful and clothe it with your smile
Let me live in love with life and linger there awhile
Clone my being now and then and sparkle it with lights
Lead me through the labyrinths that code your trackless heights
Make a tryst with truthfulness and hold me in its spell
Kindle sparks of heaven in the worriedness of hell
Tease me with the knowledge that all I’m not is me
And wake me in the morning when I’ve crossed eternity
