stirring of the sky

April 18, 2021 by Dale Leave a Comment

multicoloured sunset

my eye was born in the stirring of the sky a painted ingot fired with the dawn burning at the dam’s early light a dividing wall eroded and a river ran from the zenith a molten composition cast upon the cotton ball sky cooling it cracked in a crinkling with it my arrogance that once…

Twisted Sky

April 3, 2020 by Dale Leave a Comment

White wide weight on height Wire my camera does wear Twisted, tested, trusted outwitted Statue stitched, stacked upon a stack, my stance beneath Blue, my eyes bloom, boredom, blah, I blew it Sky paints my psyche, a sockeye spawns Light — bright loot lites truth from lies Barbed war wound, St Peter’s gate is barred…

Red Sky Tonight …

April 10, 2019 by Dale Leave a Comment

Red Sunset against midnight blue

My lips are painted with the red sky tonight … she has kissed me hard pressed against the weather pane — I’m twisting in her words, full-sail, piercing air, a dappled blanket sheathes a sorceress’ spell spoken Burn me, melt me, make me whole, cleanse from me a darkened soul, calm my waters in a…

Creation

April 19, 2017 by Dale Leave a Comment

blue stairs

Out of time, there were Two only One and One and blue but a bucket of liquid indigo two paddlers moving in a row boat and oar a compass held where do we go, the One yelled? and on the horizon they pointed without purpose and disappointed they moved and mapped turning in a circle…

In the Twinkle of the Tongue

December 13, 2014 by Dale 3 Comments

Twinkle Splash of Light

In the twinkle of the splash Lighted rings hold us tight A tongue erupts from the gash Imprints our eye with silver light And as the pebble falls below Heaven paints the liquid fabric Wrap my dreams in sunshine glow Wisps of graphic that flit like magic. All text and images © Dale Schierbeck See…

County Memories

May 28, 2014 by Dale 4 Comments

Some places are so big that they can create a moment. Some moments, special in their second, create lifetimes.
