Engage with the mysterious of life with the newly released A Blue Period
The Tragedy
As blue skies mock the smiling of the sun
And wait for the blue moon to have his fun,
My mind’s empire seems to set blue colors
In imitation of an ocean’s valor
That rages against the blues of themselves
To see which blue could top the better self.
And in this blue, that evens Neptune’s reigns
When took Telemachus father to pains,
I seem not to wrestle out this blue will
Against the god that prescribed this blue pill,
Leading me ends to this blue tragedy
That leaves me blue without the ecstasy;
And I worry if these blues are my mind
I won’t find other colors to suit the kind.
I, Tartuffe
I, Tartuffe, am a man of Narcissus,
And am no fool to our own precipice:
Steeped & balance of our own love for none
With all loves considered under the sun.
I tell my heart, yet my heart tells another,
Though mine heart doubts to question on a lover
Since the love may be other than mine own
That’s well with love that grass & flowers hone;
I have nat’ral face & hold up a glass
To bring to health all that may drink alas;
I love, & toast by it to love no love
And allow what may that permits above;
I am Tartuffe, though I’m not what I am:
For I love the sheep to speak as a lamb.
