...dark...


The weaver cannot sleep

spins serene deep to the

far dark

with

five white candles

precious vow of light

.

.

...moon...


the years up

who end will laugh taking

some moon within

see

Me

forever reaching

those stars found

You

...mother...


more more and more

long is the power of

mother

. . . . . Turning

her echo apologizes

from the overflowing

catacomb of memories

.

.

...that...


Life's pain unimagined and

certain

.

suffering unspoken

joys die unanswered

. . . . . that if

. . . . . that fear

awaits

triumph in nothingness

.

.

.

...child...


now in the chilling charm of

Two

the child cannot sleep

and shadows now wise will

forget

that serene vow

.

...bedroom...


bedroom again

her fumbling touch

their caresses shadow-shrouded

While ecstasy waits

Without kisses

widow

to her soul withdrawal

.

eyes dry

.

.

.

~Faye Manning


[[..We.21.Feb.2001..]]



...promises...


The wrinkled twisted embrace of

Each lover's poor promises

will kiss their crimson

                                           Lies

.

Where

the island waits

.

.

.

[[..Fr.23.Feb.2001..]]



...traitor...


it's me

this black path

traitor to my life my soul

.

Take     me     to     Hell

.

and angels whispered

Stop

          Forgive

.

...night...


In lonely forests

the monotonous crystal night mingles

shadowed secrets

with

magical silence

.

.

~Faye Manning


[[..Mo.26.Feb.2001..]]



...relentless...


Pondering

the relentless rhyme of

Liquid perpetual time

the spherical day converging

Cresting gloriously

.

rejoice

.

One breeze speaks

every reason

.

.

~Faye Manning


[[..Tu.27.Feb.2001..]]



...withheld...


twisted running heart

Carelessly withheld

Starving she leased his yearning

while his hunger pushed

alone through vacant

Circles

Of despair

.

.

[[..We.28.Feb.2001..]]



...song...


A somehow song

resonates

within the neural dragon

As countless waterfalls laugh with

earths kaleidoscope

.

.

.

~Faye Manning


[[..Su.04.Mar.2001..]]



...stars...


kaleidoscope stars

closely turning a somehow song

resonates

within the neural dragon

As falcon's flight with

Hummingbird wings

.

.

.

~Faye Manning


[[..Su.04.Mar.2001..]]



...candles...


Where far candles watch the shadows

let her forget

from the dark precious surface of sleep

spins

The gold void

.

.

[[..19.Dec.2k..]]



...open...


the open well

lazily profound

my muddied coin falls

spirals bouncing deep until

all in sunlight

.

I laugh

.

.

.

~Faye Manning


[[..Mo.06.Mar.2001..]]



...wish...


your gaze

your brilliance will

peel back the surrounding colors

touching

my soul absence and

the forgotten moonlight change

.

.

.

~Faye Mannning


[[..We.07.Mar.2001..]]



...logic...


logic would risk

the celebrated rhythms of passion

the hypocrisy of erotic events

forgotten

.

this bleak universe embraces our child

.

.

~Faye Manning


[[..Sa.10.Mar.2001..]]



...dreams...


dreams distant

watching clocks

until

day can end clang

dogs dance

winged wide

daring wonder

I leave the building

.

.

.

~Faye Manning


[[..Su.18.Mar.2001..]]



...one...


one mirror

she is open and inert upon

one bed

she owned his love

she lost her open door

.

.

.

~Faye Manning


[[..Mo.19.Mar.2001..]]



...tune...


Your tune of darkness and doubt this

ice hunger You

trembling

embrace your art

with your forever tears

.

.

~Faye Manning


[[..Tu.20.Mar.2001..]]



...anything...


anything beyong heaven

happens

our never certainly hopes

patiently longest safe

elsewhere ever the time touch

changes

with each moon

...pain...


From my cold corner

I breather her pain in

Every dead hour lost

beneath tears

I cannot feel the bleeding

.

[[..Th.22.Mar.2001..]]



...always...


Yesterday curves into

futile darkness

. . . . . jealous of

.

. . . . . always

.

tomorrow longed for

Perhaps

sliding in time

We watch

Winter kiss Spring

.

.

.

~Faye Manning


[[..Fr.23.Mar.2001..]]

frustrated

you are searching

my hidden wound

frightened

I told you

.

again

.

.

I am this pain

.
