the loneliness of One

In another day and time,
I will be a man with a will.
I will do what I must
because I willed it.

In another day and time,
I will be a woman with caring.
I will persevere and share
and love because I am.

In another day and time,
I was the God of all creation.
I weaved life's tapestry
and in myself I sought refuge.

Who could equal my grace and my sweep,
I am alone and although I can create
I cannot create an equal
to me.

And then I - a God,
thought of Man and Woman.
And behold, they were!
The sought refuge in my garden.

Today I am
as I was yesterday.

Man and Woman,
have paired and thrived.

Alone, I stand
and watch my wonders create life.

I another day and time,
I chose to be them.

But now I am content.
I am the One
and now,
I am them.

in my dreams i am ...

a unicorn and a wish
granted

a midnight release, a wind
farted

the smile, the woman
striking

the big gun, the hero
smoldering, biding

swashing and raging
a storm arrives

steer and be not afraid
in adventure - thrive

a big ego, manly
and pride

a secret life, unreal
and snide.

RAMA

like a hidden breeze
spreading, gaining
growing
and grabbing
inching
clawing
irresistible

the next coming.

throbbing in your heart
building up
revving engines and wild bird calls
not the cannons
not yet
a running launch
a leap
and up
and up
and away.

and still...

freedom and flight
and a way of life
so real
so just...illusory...
just within reach
and little more
and a teeny weeny bit more
and almost
but not quite yet.

the stars
they beckon.

soon...soon.
