making bass flower lace

at your desk

groaning over homework

malicious maths

until jumping up

giving up

you must have music

it’s your bass player playing

sweet subterranean electric basslines

from inside planet Earth

on your bed

hurling yourself into the feeling

deep vibrations saturations

closing your physical eyes

opening your soul’s eyes wide

imagining

your mystical twin

a bass player cool charismatic

a world wonder out of this world

but you can speak to him

at least in telepathic

rich dark tones are pouring from inside planet Earth

minuscule dark flower clusters

like Chantilly lace enfolding you

a clinging dress the colour purple mystic

made from dream plum true ocean heart crimson blue

you say

I want to play the electric bass

making bass flower lace

like vitamin frills to wrap around people

like healing like feeling alive

he smiles

do it

but some say girls can’t really play the bass

there are great female bass players anyway

but you know they say

not really really play

yeah I know

do it anyway

you’re stretching

waking with an appetite

even for maths

holding the gold leaf

on your bed

with your palms upwards

disarmed

your sleepy thoughts following

your median line up over your head

sketching a big imaginary heart

arcs high as rainbows

but rooted in the ground

you're floating

a soft vehicle into the misty

imagining

you in your delicate breezy garments

embracing authentic north

your mind a peaceful jewel

set in a cardigan open

fluffy and flapping

dusty grape violet

knit and purl patterned

purple wool flying

over thin linen layers

grey as the sky

you're drawing your body warmth closer

a heart-shaped leaf of light

muted gold with visible silver veins

nothing is written in stone

there's a plasticity to life

in your hand

you realize

you're holding the gold leaf

full of future

alive with initiative

you realize

you do not need to stand statue still

and so you walk out of the picture

initiating

Vera Kelgart  (with grounding Lemuria crystal) 2017

summer incarnate

lying down

releasing your tensions

making your eyes soft-sighted

slowing the rhythm of your body

sensing a heart outline

reaching from under your feet

to over your head

peaceful

imagining

your mystical twin

casual as the half crushed

mallow flowers in her brown hand

her skin dark against her smile

the light lavender silk blend

of her tank top with purple dots

in her outdoor bubble skirt

a vibrant shade of plum

with loosestrife print on deep pockets

she's summer incarnate

coming from a world full of life

to your doorstep

a treasure by the wayside

you've known her always

your summer vagabond

she says you could be too

casual as summer

she says it's easy

falling laughing through

the green screen of rainy leaves

whispering fat lilac silk dollop dreams

she says it's easy

you could be too

falling in song layers

a plum bubble skirt your parachute

to the spirited room

where the blackbird is

translating her into your life

you're breathing her in

knowing when you wake up

you can always return

to breathing your mystical twin
