Challenging the shades of winter
Taunting its dreaded demise
Mocking the shadow's prognostication
Tickling the timid hearts
Of somnambulant lovers
Arising to a chilling challenge
I stand...

A solitary piece the diamond 
precious rare gem most treasured 
by those lucky enough to hold 
Once in possession, it is rarely out of grasp...

Buildin’ Birds…

Your hands dart and weave
In, out, up.. then hover
Swoop right… then left

As simply as sight 
Of a birds dreamy flight
Floating to perch proud on...

like my heart in your absence, is but

A sadistic trap of six-inch heels
Some masochist's torture device

Or for added bust appeal

a toasting ceremony
for what perished.

Committed specialization

the exacting goddess 
of broken importance.

Sliced open, 
laid...

like a geisha's hair pin
soft-twisted by careless lovers
fingers fumbling for delicate purchase
(mid-passion and sake-swayed)
returned to purpose

Who stole the glow of my dawning sunrise?
As defiling your virtues you obliquely lied,
Pounding my heart till I...

September’s serendipitous serenade
Evokes the ebullience of ecstasy 
Provokes a prancing promenade
Tingeing the torrid leaf tips
Exacting an elemental excitements
Monumental majesty
Blue-black horizons blending
Exotically enigmatic exigencies
Ruby reds rollicking...

Damaging winds whip and slash, whirling wild, drenching rain,
Roads decimated come to standstill, as gushing floods reign,
Inundating swollen terrains, roiling deluge of a tenebrous day,
