Spring

Piercing,shrieking echoing cries cut cold moonlit
Phantasmal mist flowing above this dark lake.
Vanquishing night's spectral illusions uncoiling.
Shedding nights' shivering skin birthing a warming
Golden incarnation manifesting within first light.
Sharp early morn disputes define daybreak
Sparkling bedewed upon sprouting manifestations
Divining this garden hanging above the channel below.
Riding first lights' dissolution,the eagle spirals upwards,
Into the newborn rays of dawn sparking
The raptors' cold sure eyes searching
The vast ocean expanding beyond vision.
She flushes icy colbalt blue,penetrating his gaze
Her skin carressed by young sols' first indrawn breath.
Tidal currents warp like surreal fingerprints
Stretching natures' heartbeat darkly swelling
the horizon.

Creation crackles malevolence
Stalking order raging on
Storm beasts galloping violence
Whipping currents born from demons.

Propeling vitality the oceans' distance
Sent to meet destiny in white-spray explosion
Against eroded guardians lining the channel mouth,
Pouring into the green heart of these white-capped elders,
Lining back into inlets pouring fresh libations
Drawn deep within heartlines flowing
From granited snowlines far above.
Grinding these giants down through eons,
Bowing to the handsevants of time.
Frost fracturing,freezing ,fragmenting
Boulders grinding to dust swept down creekbeds,
Descending serpentine riverbeds carving times' braid
Into valley bottoms pouring out silted delta tongues
Uncoiling into inlet depths beyond.

Extolling ancient invocations
Elders stand fast beyond.
Awaiting monstrous visitations
From the paling beyond.

Sols' brilliant youth consumes dawn
Flashing over yonder grizzly-capped ridgeline,
Dissipating vacacous vapor wisps shaded red over mauve.
Diamond hard sky brightens electric blue
Dimming pale moon ghost gliding grace into gaia.
Recasting night into gentle warm springtime glow
Bathing all within invigorating golden rays of divinities light.
Flirting swallows dart delirious with the rites of spring
Performed within wattle huts overhanging lichened cliffs,
Glowing radiant within sols' golden morning glory.
The red hawk drops out of sols' perch upon
The young voles' ignorance threading life into death into life.

Sacred dancers leaven
Rapturous bountious life.
Blossoming youth storm heaven
Releasing boundless strife.

Awaking delicate scented vessels,unfurling brilliant petals
Kissing glades within a myriad of fragrant hues.
Racing sacred groves to high meadows
Ringing softening snowcones submerging
These icy granited pinnicles.
Young sol bores deep,cracking slush flows fast
White flood flow flowers,expanding instant oblivion
Exploding supersonic roar shakes this icy pinnicle.
Glistening white spray arc slices infinite blue heaven above,
Orbs of granite ice hurtling to doom below
Sparking the air with survivals' urgency,
Roaring winter's death crashes down far below.

Sweeping worlds into chaos,
The elders icy grip laid low.
Dissolving mortality flowers loss,
Shattering ideals below.

Blue jay coarsely laughs at winters demise,
His courting call echoed in the greening dissolve.
Their calls together adding a mad edge to fading fury.
Startled young does' head pops up beside budding fir
Up from which laughing jay leaps to life.
Freezing a heartbeat of life before instincts'
Enertia propels the doe forward with free flowing grace.
Black tail engulfed within grasping growing green.
White ghosts entangle trees dissolving space.
Silent first emissaries knife morning mid-point in her rise.
Dissolving celestial blue
Inside soft white isolation
Transforming sols' youthful clarity into brewing malevolence,
Set to explode from anywhere.
Raucous blue jay laughter faintly mocks
Retreating,shrieking gulls fleeing the coming fury.
Soaring wind heralds the ancient raven couple
Slicing shades flowing above the evergreen groves
Flowing down the mountainside.

Shades of ancient regimes
Seeking resurrection slide.
Youthful soul gleams
The dream inside.

Atop a grey ghost the graceful eagle alights
Overlooking the creeks gossamer veiled expanse below,
Threading dampening white spectors
Slizzering through bearded branches revealing
Deaths' head intensity flowing into golden feline stalking surity
Rippling into ghostly bone hard whiteness trailing
Jungled convuluted creek cascading in its wake.
Eagle eyes plumb deep pools tearing away
From creek step falls descending the mountainside,
Searching sinuous rainbows heralding soul food supper.
Tasting mountain life flooding creekside breath.
The spring hungry lord of this mountain stalks forward,
Impressing temporal darkness onto this spectral world.
His entrance soundless,speaking only in spirit tongue,
This ancient lord silences his kingdom with a look,
Infinity speaks pure murder within his hard eyes.
Eagle eyes gaze upon grizzled veteran
Absorbed inside jungled creekside misty maze.
The eagle abandons its lofty perch,
Silently absorbed within this soft white embrace.

Legions leap limits ignored,
Elders' wisdom to face.
Raging bull black gored,
Youths' ardour at pace.

Swirling vapour trails obscure this passage to oblivion,
Swallowed within the creeks' roar deforming
This raft of shades with its exhalation of white power.
Gravities inextricable force gouging ever downwards,
Splitting hard rock in twain marking times'
Eroding rings with youths zestful gleem.
Springing from stepfall to stepfall
The does' natural grace accents wild spirit
Investing the rocky foot of this churning fall,
Rippling the pool frothing away from the streams breath.
Thumping,huffing beating tone resonates swaying sword ferns,
Lining the rock bluffs climbing away above.
The grouses' yen for a mate is aknowledged
By the staccato chatter of courting squirrels balancing
Boughs swaying,swinging,swerving to the will of the wind.

Elders face protean malevolence
Serpentine coils wind the wind.
Tension smaps vigilance to violence,
Demon grinds the wind.

The does' hesitation scents the air
In anticipation of predators hungry sightline.
The pools calming intoxicating pull beckons
Through thirsts' taunting grip
Survivals razor edge slicing.
The swirling currents reveal only dampness,
The commitment is made.
Only the green boughs dancing in the creeks' breath
Disturb this idylic space in time
Graced by this delicate ballerina
Stepping gracefully to the pools edge
She bows her head
Warily she drinks.
The toad watching stone glistens,
Thickening vapor damping all,
Young sol now aged,darkened,cold of heart
The liquid realm consumes the realm of air
As a golden streak announces a new dawn.
First paw slaps rocky poolside,
Challenging all,
The lioness springs upward onto late moving doe.
Staggered into the pool,
The doe coughs a winded,shuddering,shrieking grunt.
The lioness sinks her claws deep
The lioness bites deep into the frenzied does' throat.
The does' lifeblood surges down the lioness' throat
In a final spasm electrifying the lioness.
Her thirst for life sated at last,the hunt now over.
Life into death into life,
The ritual performed once again.
Blood flowing,Rain pouring,Powers working.
The does'dissapating lifeblood darkening this emerald pool.
Flashing rainbows leaping free of deaths' dark descent.
The does' spirit springs into darkness shining through the light
Reflecting lifes' heat snarling dominance over her cooling corpse.
Sudden stuttering blur explodes across the bluff face.
The harts' retreat swallowed soundlessly inside
The rising storms ruminations.
His shattered faun speckled harum trails in paired flight.

The demon leers at the elders,
Veil of delusion wraps tight.
The soul of humanity shudders,
Culling itself in a blight.

The storm beasts' dark assault whipped bow taunt.
The furies flaying timber alive delight.
Jawing the does' neck,the lioness glides fluid grace
Up from the pool pausing upon moss carpet,
Warily she tastes the air.
All scenses alert probing mist shroud bush
Encrouching upon this bloody pool divining
Nemesis ' projection permeates insidious malice.
Unsettled the lioness licks the bloody neck.
Effortlessly she glides the doe towards cedar sanctuary
Beckoning heavens' grace above.
Skirting the devils' club the lioness moves upwards,
Grey shroud sun slips past zenith,the devil to pay.

Elders crack to stone shadow
Under dead weight to pay
Sins of self-absorbtion below,
Demon holds deaths' sway.

Cold drizzle shroud nurtures hard rain hammering
Topspars rattling,clashing,snapping boughs sail
Twisting upon this silvery carpet flowing
Through furies timber whipping assualt climbing higher
Ripping the shadow veil revealing the mountains' monarch.
His essense defining dominance over all.
The lioness' motion frozen,
Absolute attention rivited.
The great grizzlies'roar momentarily diminishing
Gaias' spring flood roar.
The great boar unleashes his assualt
Sparking terror and surrender in one frozen heartbeat.
Loath to relinquish her grip on life,
The lioness screams bloody rage spittled with doe hair.
She leaps,twisting impossibly away
As six inch grizzly figernails slap her hind leg
Spinning her splayed round to land
Facing white froth fury falling unrelenting.
Inspiring a mighty leap across the raging current
Leaping upwards from ledge to ledge
Bedewing the spiders lair sweeping up the boughed realms.
Scrapping claws gain the slimmest final ledge,
Sanctuary or grave?
The spring coiled lioness shrieks defiance
Her back hard against whitewater,dashing violently down.
Her adrenalized heart beats bloody gouts spurting
From her mangled leg into icy spray hurtling down.
Ears flattened she quickly scans her predicament.
Above only white violence disappearing
Into ghostly green whipped nothingness.
Below death roars and swats the lichen face
Silently absorbing abuse and bearing witness.
The sound of terror soars several octaves,
The scent of blood excites all.
The fierce debate slowly winds down to a stern
Soliquay from the grizzled victor.
The master attends his due cooling under hemlock.
The black wolf shadow departs
Dissipating into wraiths seeking lost harums.
The lioness stares mortality hard in the face.
The bloody lichened bluff face bears brutal scars
Attesting to the grizzlies rule as king of the mountain

Elder memory swept clean,
Visions now memory pain.
Instinct cut lean,
Instinct pricks pain.

The lioness spurts life steadily into white spray
Accenting this aquatic world with her scent.
Flowing with cleansing flush pouring out onto the delta
Below flowing out over barnacled shoreline.
Where trapped sealife awaits the rebirth of high tide.
In little pools on the jagged shoreline
lick with rising storm surf pounding ashore.
The wind and ocean weaving mystic timeless rhythms
Touching the core of all things alive.
Tidemarks spiral reveals shallow reefs
Scrubed oasises ringed with green chives
Flowing free to oceans' breath.
The stormbringers heart crackles ominously above.
Bone chilling wind slashes icy brine spray
Into evergreen slopes trembling in anticipation
Of this dark entities intent.
Its rumbling underbelly fracturing imploding inside chaos.
Exploding light flaring spikes
Imprinting darkness rippling
Whipcracking across the channel length.
Supercharging heavy air sinking deeeper
With each crackle,punctuating a deepening gloom
Rent through by a winged god bursting free
Of this malvolent entity enshrouded
Within mists of time.
Supernatural seams of sacred ancient power
Uncoiling from chaos roiling above.
The spiritual world splits the temporal.
The avatars' presence divined through this descent,
Proclaimed as a searing bolt of undiluted energy
Sizzling downwards from the empyrean realms above.
Splitting,incinerating sodden air,
Slashing savagely inside the swaying clashing
Evergreens cleaving the giant cedar spine in twain.
Acrid smoke flame tongues flicker
Licking up descending tears of angels.
White-capped god wheels in tightening circles
Shuddering crackling booming crash splits the air.
Gaias' skin ripples shaking the mountainside through to her roots.

Pains' fear sparks anger
Reaction feeds bitterroot.
Pumping toxic pillager
Flowers mythic shoots.

The eagle alights upon a stunted fir
Topping an isle warily watching
The world unfolding about it.
The ocean a churning slate-grey revalation of Gaias' anger
Her bonny blue sparkle now a distant morn' memory.
Only flat cold hard colours rule here.
Deep within swaying creaking cedar boughs
A raven flytes the raptor.
-CUK YOU-CUK YOU-CUK YOU-
The black frocked diminutive heckler bobs in time
As another rippling shaft slizzers across the channel.
Cannonshot impacts ricochets off of granited spires
Slicing bulging black underbelly open unleashing
A torrent obscuring all within a liquid blur.
The eagle gazes over at cedar shades roost
The reproachful gaze silences the sneering shadow.
Raven abruptly declares discretion above valor
Wingtips deftly threading the eye of the needle
Through swaying branchtips over the rising tideline
Into the embrace of the forest edge.
Fat raindrops smack and smart unmercifully
Marking ravens' earnest retreat.
The eagle glances in dismisal
Rattled by the fading boom of distant lightening
Striking fancy by the delta a dull silvery
Flash roils within whitecaps.
Inflaming instinct,the raptor takes to wing,
Intensity in stalking flight.

Protean progeny revelate
Attracting pilgrims' light.
Heartless faithful apostate
Mutating instincts' sight.

Black sun shade dissipates within retreating wraiths flowing
Through granited spires cracking heavens light.
Beneath eagles talons the plumed fisher slices deep
Trailing silver ectoplasmic bubbles stretching survival above.
The salmon are returning starting eternal regeneration,
Life into death into life.
Up from mercurial depths a dark blur rockets
Towards pale light beckoning above this liquid sky
Perforated by rippling waves of pelting rain riviting inwards.
An explosive snort slices rainbeat hammering the furry head
Popping up through rollers reflected in two glistening
Black orbs absorbing the fading tempest.
A quick deep breath and he is gone
Diving deep cruising dancing white light lattice
Twisting through sinuous weeds flowing free in the current,
Hunting the hungry heartbeat of life.
Dim light chases silver flashes into distant blue dissolve
Casting predatory sight through which ravenous sealions
Torpedo entity hurtles.
Lightening quick descent impacts fanged jawline sealing
Deaths' thrashing throes threading its passage
Towards rain lashed surface materilizing
Out of submerged boom advancing lightening streaking inland.
Rolling with the rollers the victor rollics
With a flayed salmon banquet.
Sleek seabirds weave sinuous bubbled paths darting
Beneath decimating scavenging fish cleansing
Shredded scraps,drifting downcurrent
Through a pulsating translucent curtain of jellyfish
Beating the raucous rhythm of this aquamarine world.
Intoxicated with insidious delight youth tarries overlong.
Dagger black dorsal fins disintergrate bliss
Before eternities gate.
Primal energy precedes the presiding monarch
Of these waters,the mighty Orca.
The massive bulls' Ka is intimidating.
Materializing out of the murky distance instantly
Great domed head slashed with white imprints
A heartstopping toothy world.
A dread sight as awe inspiring as electrifying in its terror

Zealots knife slices deep
Searching blind for terror.
The light in hearts' keep
Reveals this bloody error.

The race of the young lions life restarts
Resurrection a reward that must be rent
From deaths' greedy grasp.
The rocky shore the lions sanctuary,
The hunter now the hunted.
The eternal net recast,
Life into death into life.
Darting downwards the lion twists a sinuous
Streak to the rocky bottom.
The lions' panicked approach vanquishes hustling
Bottom feeders as the evening show rockets
Past their darkening abodes.
Shallowing light intensifies not fast enough triggering
Terrorized intuition of nemisis' Ka relentlessly closing
Upon the young lions straining flippers.
The giant bull cleanly closes the distance,
Graceful lethal power elegantly defined
Within delicate flexing twists of flukes and fins.
Guiding herculean energy unleashed
Within each fluke stroke.
The bull is on the lion inside a heartbeat.
The lions' last desperate spurt of adrenalin
Signals pulverizing compression snapping its spine.
The lions death shriek lost within a scarlet explosion
Of gored bubbles drifting towards the light above.

Exposing cannibal delusion
Inside golden insight.
Golden love infusion
Cuts hates' insane light.

Eventides fading light is scored by the resonant song
Of distant humpbacks winging,
Ringing...
Pinging...
Singing clear from the depths beyond.
Singing swashbuckling tales of distant realms
Adventures past and dreams yet to be realized.
These mighty behmothes of the deep currents
Continue courting their song of life into death into life.
The bloody mist that was the lion dissapates.
Within the swirling slipstream marking sounding orcas
Sensing this exotic song sent the oceans titanic span.
The ascending lion shreds races fading light descending
Towards the lions' shade embracing the rainbow ladder beckoning
Above this silvery flexing sky rolling ever on.
Tiny birds slice through the late light feasting
Upon silvery fish feasting on this bloody shade
Refracting eventide within the luminosity of sunset.
Venus' assension sparks the first light of eventide,
Heralding nightfalls rebirth.

Loves' light is the key
To heaven as earth.
Instinct reborn sin free
Without memory to curse.

Gaias' rotation hurtling the stars crashing through
Sunsets' evarporation bannishing daylights' brilliant blindness.
Encrypting nights' encrouching dommination.
Darkening starlight enshrines the eagle spiraling earthward,
Racing old sols' decent through the brightening moons' rise
Daylights dissolution slanting her dying rays dancing down
Through this current,
Refracting expanding shimmering layers of colour.
Illuminating the channel within mesmerising
Pulsating kaliedoscopic rhythms.
The whole of creation suffused
Within this sublime radiance.
Gaias' aura revealed,breath her in.
