Memories: reflections on an emerald goban

http://users.telenet.be/dual/go/SL/moon.jpg

 Life is a game
 Water is a smile
 Black is the Moon
 White is the sky


 in a midsummer night dream
 two people walk
 never reaching destination
 the way is beautiful
 rain jumps around

 tengen
 a beautiful move
 like this wave
 looking back
 gliding away


 trees float high above
 a river flows forth and back
 sun sets
 a joyful day


http://users.telenet.be/dual/go/SL/unc.jpg

 words spoken
 won't come back
 life folds away
 is all then lost?


http://users.telenet.be/dual/go/SL/night.jpg

 dark water
 bright surface
 depressing deep
 moving, retreating
 longing for this beach,
 far away


 sounds of a smile
 a glittering voice
 "Atari!"
 fills the air
 sparkles of joy
 muttered words
 tearing silence
 diamonds crack
 the night is falling
 the sky is dying
 a smile cheers
 tears
 rips
 and kills
 trapped in a cave
 a hideous creature
 floor trembling
 walls crumbling
 hell is waiting
 yet it dreams
 of little dreams
 of moonlit skies
 it wished to be there
 that day
 the Universe was reborn

 dying gladiator
 reaching for the Moon
 a black Moon


 messengers streak across the cold sky
 wishes reach up
 bubbles of hope
 a song in the deep sky
 leaves the Sun behind
 bound for the void
 found a way to escape

 switch
 life - life is music
 groove
 where are you?
 the music carries me away
 floating on a wave
 horizon all around
 dark deep below


 cry
 nobody hears

 out go the lights
 left is a shell
 doors close
 sorrow
 pain
 die
 gasping
 it's so dark here
 and cold

 pleasing memories
 and now this silence
 we're plodding through
 it's all too painful
 tears can't carry my sadness
 to my horror
 this volcano in me
 seems to die
 collapsing under this battle
 between hate and love
 cling on to a fading image
 rather than face life
 grim, dull faces
 can't believe
 I'm just one of those
 now the only game
 I can think of
 is playing
 with the light switch


http://users.telenet.be/dual/go/SL/spotin.jpg

 when I emerge from the night
 daylight blows away the ashes
 then I see
 two suns in the sky
 a bleak reality
 and a weak hope
 both casting shadows
 it's a strange sensation
 one I've had before
 several times already
 I'm still dreaming.


http://users.telenet.be/dual/go/SL/spot.jpg

 as the daylight hours pass
 mind retakes control
 and slowly reveals
 the losing cards;
 whenever a heart jumps
 a cold hand halts it again.


http://users.telenet.be/dual/go/SL/bridge.jpg

 hope is this feeble bridge over oblivion
 the irrational mind
 crosses again and again
 this token that changes hand
 across space and time.


http://users.telenet.be/dual/go/SL/land.jpg

 words
 crippled convoy to nowhere
 dragging along scorched land
 warriors left behind
 unaware

 please don't crush me
 please don't
 plea

 deep carves
 you hew in me
 where's
 this vital point?


http://users.telenet.be/dual/go/SL/sea.jpg

 a ghost sits next to me
 we listen
 notes from the outer world
 but my mind
 can't find the path.


http://users.telenet.be/dual/go/SL/tjap.jpg

 Tonight
 the moon walked with me


http://users.telenet.be/dual/go/SL/bw.jpg

 cracks appear
 white is black
 is freefall
 an orbit?
 time
 expands
 contracts
 bends around
 time is a message


 a beacon
 colourful flashes
 a deep sea monster
 dragging me down
 I reach for the surface
 but my heart is too heavy
 I see life
 through broken, blurred glasses
 a friend tells me
 to throw them away.


 if words carry life
 do they matter?
 rolled in a bubble
 together with an illusion
 we float a while
 down the time stream

 crossed
 the dark side
 of the Moon
 yet I keep floating.

looks like poetry will end soon.

http://users.telenet.be/dual/go/SL/tide.jpg

 The Moon
 in my heart
 tides
 in my soul.
 Snow falls
 seeds retract
 emptiness invades
 ...
 started crossing the ocean
 reach for the other side
 yet a voice tells me
 the answer is rather deep below


 and yet...

 what's an eye's colour
 wish I could ask myself
 till time ends.
 a game in a game in a game...
 dare not looking
 at the end of the tunnel
 at the bottom of the well
 a diamond.
 late night
 deserted streets
 err in a music machine
 hear the electrons.
% -- ''Praga Khan feat. Isabelle Nouwen - Glamour Girl'' ([YouTube|http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dhoUZRc7NVc])
 My heart is like a duck...
 the rubber variant one
 with no eyes
 it beats
 unaware of time.

 paper dragon
 wave across my soul
 fire dragon
 vein across my heart.
 Middle  of the night
 Red leds - diodes - dodeca
 Red laser beam
 cuts the ethyl mist of time
 red mist.
 Today,
 midnight became sunset
 sunrise became midnight.
 On one of those trips
 you said you admired me
 well
 it's been driving me
 since.
 Like this evening
 realised
 I go teaching a kid
 once in a while
 started wondering
 who's the teacher?

 Miss you.
 Chinese fireworks
 it's all in hand's reach
 just a reflection.

 Where are you? Why do you hide?
 Where is that moonlight trail that leads to your side?
 Just like the Moonraker goes in search of his dream of gold,
 I search for love, for someone to have and hold.
 I've seen your smile in a thousand dreams,
 Felt your touch and it always seems
 You love me,
 You love me.
 Where are you? When will we meet?
 Take my unfinished life and make it complete.
 Just like the Moonraker knows his dream will come true someday,
 I know that you are only a kiss away.
 I've seen your smile in a thousand dreams,
 Felt your touch and it always seems
 You love me,
 You love me.
 -- Shirley Bassey - Moonraker Lyrics
 Miss you
 Tonight I was in a medieval place
 You're galaxies away
 My forest mind
