Premium Member Ancestral Guides Filling the Room
As she meditated the room brightened. 
Streaks of energy came in and lightened.
She did not flinch, used to such things.
The whirls of essence danced in her rings.

She shut off her eyes and concentrated.
Hoping her front latch was firmly gated.
She understood the value of the spirit...

  The cat said to the leveret, "Meoww..."

you’ll never give away

A pet can steal your heart.

The Sales Lady
Descending into a mega-mall, the fluorescence blemishes my skin.
There is a twinge in my temples as I approach the makeup counter,
meeting eyes with a woman whose shoes pierce my gait 
and whose artificially white teeth flash like EMP bombs.

But I must not be blinded; there...

My wife Judith opened my eyes
into the world of adoption for pets
with special needs.

   It takes a special person to give
an animal a second chance at life
by adopting a special needs dog,

"a dagger of pain, a tear of grief" Quote by _Constance La France

The food in the county jail is horrible
but it's not worse than the pain in my heart
She left me, running for the hills
which tore myself apart

I am here and I am lonely
It's just...

A Missive To Myself and To Her 2
But she wasn't so wrong, I am an animal, after all. A sick one, I must say. And sick animals must be dealt with, must be dealt the only way they are. An ax to the head, splitting my skull, letting go of all those...

Life Nowadays
If life is a gift
God be an Indian giver and take me back to you
Back to my comfort place 
Because when I close my eyes I'm there with you

You can say it to my...

The Infinite Deaths of Adam and Acid Jazz
There's a room in a warm town that holds a poet
He quivering and shaking and no one knows it
Critically alone when he needs a friend most
Shadows from his past are haunting him like ghosts

I shot up enough just kill the pain
A harmless little dose just...

Golden Worm
Andy had a golden worm with green and yellow spots
He loved to watch it eat and eat; it really did eat lots 
Then one day it crawled away and fastened to a limb
It shed its pretty golden skin and couldn’t look at him
No more was...

A little girl said to her mother one day
"Santa's not real, that's what my friends say"
Her tears welled up and she started to cry
And said" Is he real or is it a lie ?".

And...

Take It Easy
Do you acknowledge the traits of Homo_ Sapiens?
The up righted body and/ or high IQ Intellectual? 
No! It must be the morality awakening by Sunrise
And resting quietly when the sunset goes to low
The truth is brightness  lightens an animal a human, 
While darkness colors...

Little Bear was watched over carefully by her bear spirit animal
She did not always see her, but she felt the bond and communication

To reassure her, give her advice, to listen and sooth her...

Waterfall
A wonderful site to be seen in water oh so grand
As crystal clear comes crashing down,  on the rocky waterland
A mist is splattered over all that are near this beautiful site
As they witness the spectacular waterfalls,  beauty and its might

The crystal blue wonder...
