Dust Flower

Beautiful illusionful
Beautiful dust flower
Is this fantasy or reality
Gone wrong
Headstrong
Blazing before my mind
I see colours of you
for you
Touching me now
an eclipse in my thoughts
Do you see me
Tell me
am I real
Or am I a memory
Of your imagination your imagination
Come on touch me
let me feel alive
This moment
Passion reaction
burning distraction
Of you for you
Dust of a flower dust of a flower
Hear me calling you
Dust of a flower
See me watching you
Take us to where
Feel me touching you
No beginning no end is there
Beautiful illusionful
Beautiful dust flower
Is this fantasy or reality
Gone wrong
Headstrong
Blazing before my mind
I see colours of you for you
Tell me now
All my senses are dull
All my mind is numb
Come through with pain or pleasure
What I need to know
This is real this is real
Come touch me now
Come on
you got ears to hear
Eyes I see in their sockets
Can’t you sex me
Let me feel the warmth
Of your fingers
touching my flesh
Let me feel the sensation
Of your vibration
In me
through me
around me
inhabit me
As I inhabit your soul
Hear me calling you
Dust of a flower
See me watching you
Take us to where
Feel me touching you
No beginning no end is there
Beautiful illusionful
Beautiful dust flower
Is this fantasy or reality
Gone wrong
headstrong
Blazing before my mind
I see colours of you
for you
Dust of a flower dust of a flower

– Ephraim Hylton


Darken’d Room

I stand
in a darken’d room
And I swear
The walls
Gave way
to trees
and the ceiling
to stars
I reached out
to the floor
But nothing
To hold me
No switch
of light
But that
of the moon
And galaxies
So bold
No room
Could hold

– Ephraim Hylton


Amazed (audio)

 

Amazed

Hold your hands
In the air
Like when the snow
falls
or when the rain
drizzles
Grasp its beauty
its wonder…
Sun-showers
As pretty as flowers
of different shapes
and colours
Give chase
to a rainbow
And children run
and scream in joy
All the wonders
Theirs to behold
And take in
As the dragons swoop
and sing…
Then quiet stillness comes
I am amazed –
Still…

– Ephraim Hylton


Woman (audio)

 

Woman

Leaves fall
at your feet
Trumpets sound
The winds turn
To look again
What has been created
To dwell in our midst
Birds flap their wings
In suspended glory
Who will write
of this
Who will tell
This story
Woman
You are here
And I am
Forever blessed
By your sight
Though tomorrow
May never be certain
I will Love you
now
And forever more

– Ephraim Hylton


Mercy Train (audio)

 

Mercy Train

When the moon
is full
And the sun
is setting low
A voice
Heard from the sky
The Mercy Train
is coming
Get on board
This Mercy Train
For its leaving soon
Don’t you wait
Don’t delay
For it might not be
Coming by again
Get on board
This Mercy Train
For it might not be
Coming
Yea coming coming by
Again
Invisible cities
Caught up
In the air
Among the shadow
of clouds
Last blue light
Crescendo
Before dark night
This Mercy Train
One stop
To Love
Don’t get
Left behind
Get on board
For it might not be
Coming by
Bright light
Cities of light
Coming by
Coming by again

– Ephraim Hylton
