...VII.

An involuntary shudder as I watch her 
Spread

Much exaggerated flourishing whilst  
Wielding t......

...No one can see my eyes
they a covered with dark sunglasses
Dark as my soul and my thoughts

When life goes in grim backstreets
it's reflected by a deeper truth about who I am

Premium Member When You Wear a Dirty Shirt
...When you wear a dirty shirt,
You're a book getting judged by its cover.
People think you're really poor, or nutty,
Or that you have a menial job.
Or that you're all three of those,
And then they......

...Today, meandering through the clutter of the local antique store,
I almost tripped and fell over an object partially hidden on the floor!

They came on bullock-carts
loaded with gods
   Indra

Premium Member Adieu - Part 1
...Do you remember?
We lay in the moonlight, exhausted and content,
Moments from perfection, skin glistening with moisture,
Salty and sweet from love - love so amazing
That it stunned us every time ......

Presented itself to me in the form of a

I found by chance at a local food stand.
Thrilled was I t......

Horses
...Her tiny strands of forelock were as soft as silk, 
resting gently between her poll and soft ears-
Her muzzle slightly wet as it began to wilt

street-cars roll over my me-mind,

The Broken Watch
...Our time has all but stopped
Just like a broken watch
Our hands are bound, unable
to move a single notch

Pieces fitting tightly
are worn and slipping free
Now tension fills the springs

...I am the fence
I let her see my holes
We discuss them at length
And hers mine.

My chair at a slight angle;
Instead of my coffee sip,
A torch lights my lips -
A flying insect in

Between mirage and actuality ?
A fireball was coming towards you.
You upturn the underside,

Premium Member Sounds of Three Visitors To My Garden
...Early morning, the trill 
with a buzz, is weighted toward the beak,
tail twitching, side to side, 
underside barred: my friendly wren.
