Don't let love fool you; It's not my first love.
Truth rocks my world, from below and above. ~XineAnn

Thinking is more interesting than knowing, but less interesting than looking. ~Goethe

For experience is the Soul's one and only nourishment ~James Hillman

Le coeur a ses raisons que la raison ne connaît point. ~Blaise Pascal

He who has lost his soul will be finding God anywhere, up above and down below, in here and out there, he will cling to every straw of love blown past his doorway as he stands waiting for a sign. ~James Hillman

Come, my mad Crazy Jane

Come, my mad Crazy Jane
and let me brush your long dark hair
you with the dying dog in your arms
but hold him, hold him til the end
and then a little longer
because life is what we have
and life after life is a promise
and life after death is a threat

Come, my mad Crazy Jane
and tell me of your silent love
as you wait with an empty bowl
and the dog at your feet
and you don't know if the dog
is living or dying
and you don't know
if you are living or dying

Come, my mad Crazy Jane
and don't let your irreverent lover
kick your dog as he chants,
"Dog is God spelled backwards"
laughing at his own backwards wit
(the misanthropic attitude,
the existential platitude)
You laugh because anything
would be funny
and everything he says
is sacred when
you are waiting for a Word

Come, my mad Crazy Jane
priestess of animal love
let me brush your long dark hair
as you sob your goodbyes
to the warm love of the animal
and the cold love of the buffoon
Holy was your love
of the love made flesh
Holy are your tears for love
Holy is your long dark hair

~XineAnn














    Woman Under Glass

    In the mirror,
    I am a woman under glass
    like week-old flowers when
    we don't change the water
    when we leave the roses
    roadside
    as lifeless as the idea
    of love
    as the idea
    I loved
    the water is dank
    and love smells bad

    In the mirror,
    I am a woman under glass
    falling petals
    love gone to seed
    nothing grows in bad water
    love gone to need
    so faithful is my brother
    so loyal are my friends
    holy were the words I had
    but the water is dank
    and love just smells bad

    ~XineAnn










    Still Life in White

    If words are the key
    and the door is locked
    and you've lost your voice
    and never knew the words
    and love was the cart
    but you never saw the horse

    Then stop talking altogether
    break it down with force,
    never mind the mime uncouth,
    shock the world,
    stand in the light,
    show me naked truth
    show me white on white.

    ~XineAnn
