poems revised


(untitled)
To the artist you've always been,
never ceased in seeking truth--
deceit requires guile and secrecy
but not all secrets are aimed to deceive;
falsity can present itself as beauty,
but beauty can only be—
where the back and forth at the speed of light,
between zero and one, stops;
where something emerges from nothing,
plain for all to see.

(untitled)
Walk the wire over the fire
of despair while balancing compassion
and courage to continue having faith
in the madness of the base-metal age
we find ourselves living in;
where it means so much
to you and I now; while words
accrue meaningless
to all but a few.
