Bio
Spanning the RiverI've spanned these banks for many years,
made evident in the rusty tin adorning my roof
My sides are scarred , colors been stripped
from angry storms through hundreds of seasons.
My river bed ran dry back in late October
then Winter snows frosted my planks
but I was...

Personification
KinMost are related to shipwrecked ghosts,
accomplices of my blood
that can still be found
in geographically scattered albums.
When there were cities to occupy,
they lived one level below expectations.
Like defective fireworks, some went off early.
A more dedicated few grew old and medicated.
They built defunct railroads and dug ditches
they...

Resting In These Tennessee HillsResting In These Tennessee Hills
Lazy mornings in these Tennessee hills
Horned owl in tree behind house hoots all night
Sometimes annoys but often gifts a thrill
As country-fired moon sends us brighter light!
Mellow breeze, waltz morn rays with soft touch
Tall trees wrapping such gentle slopping yards
Often this beauty...

Afrikaans IntelligentsiaGarden of Eden is far from this
with shared affinity among its borders
with confusing the a fore mentioned
Gone through the sun but fun
with life of thorn and burn
now the result the negative bio-rhythm
Geographically located in bliss
with males of bonny and muscular frame
female so fair on the...

The Snail Will Get To Easter Just As SoonFaulkner's comment, I imagine him
tossing it off like Yogi Berra between games
of a doubleheader. The hero, the expert, the virtuoso
has no real control, is going to feel
unmitigated, unsparing forces, a mighty sun
swallowed by a black hole, coughed up into a big sky.
The past isn't dead....

EvolutionEvolution Not God
It is the case that there is no God,
He does not exist, he is not the one,
He is not there, he’s not everyone’s invisible puppet,
It is not personal, he is not the Son.
Evolution is true, I know it inside myself:
We are all...

One Among Many Part 2I live in a place striving for sobriety surrounded in alcohol looking for happiness trapped among our very own sadness. I hear my people’s laughs and I hear my people’s cries, but most of all I see their dreams because their dreams are my dreams...

Forever Tracey-She Never Stopped Loving MeI was born before her-
but she existed
long before my life's debut.
Ancient Spirit.......
Old Soul!....Really Old Soul!
The "Great I AM"
knows her as "Tracey, You AM!"
As a young girl she was giving advice
to adults.......
they would listen and take it to heart!
SERIOUSLY!!!
That was a sign!
She was always there.....
ALWAYS-
but...

LuminousDelicate pieces of me,
Float free and endlessly
As I geographically cross the
Sea
To where, my heart wants to be
Although, a fragment still in my
Mind
The feeling is simply, sublime.
Soaring through, a clouded maze.
Forging distant night, to day's
Treading, tranquil waves
Fusion in tuquoise & amber
Shades.
Dreaming till the day,
Fingerprints engrave...

BrothersI wasn’t born with a silver spoon,
Neither on the night of full moon,
Yet,
I was showered with their grace,
They were divines in human face,
Nothing in my life I was denied,
They were the ones, who were my guide,
I was bestowed nonetheless affordability,
Thanks to their quintessence magical ability,
They...

Stumbling Upon BeautyYou have to forgive me
Been in the hospital
For 3 days now
With mi amor
Who has been
In a month
white uniforms
Calm colors familiar
I almost forgot I
Step on new
ground each day
Antiseptic smell
Broken by humanity
When what is taken
To relieve pain
Causes another
This day we should
Have flown out
Caught a...

The Abcs of PubescencesAn adjustment of ageless allure,
Buzzing bees, chirping birds,
Conversations confused, girls play coy.
Disconcerted; demanding; desire.
Early stages evolving each day,
Form like fiddleheads frolicking free.
Geographically girls giggle and grow.
Heartache upon heartache, puppy loves.
Inquisitiveness highlighting “I.”
Joys and joviality gyrate.
“K-I-S-S-I-N-G” song starts.
Love laughing like time never ends…lost.
Multifaceted mysterious.
Nervously naughty...
