The door was stiff with rusted bolts but I did my best
the pool of sweat and the rain of tears can all attest.

There were whispers and taunting from fear
but great determination and anticipation covered my ear.

In the heat, your loud, sharp cry gave me the...

I was sleeping, probably snoring.
  around three one morning,
Awakened by knock at my door.

 Well I sleep in the floor.

I wasn't sure it worthwhile,
So I laid there awhile
Slowly rolled out of bed,
Looked out the window instead.

Without my glasses,
Its like looking through molasses,
I couldn't see,

Seeks eternal spring

Something catches me form the corner of my eye
No one's home but I swear someone just walked by
There stands a man just beyond the lower stairs
Startled yet I'm not afraid as he looks at me and stares

a proud and somber beggar
and asked if he could speak to us 
of hatefulness and guile. 

"What say you, Sir?" We asked Remorse
with curious concern. 
 "I've come to bend the hearts of man 
and promise soon that...

You make me 
Tingle
The flutter of your wings
Tickles my soul
As your beauty darts before me
Resting for a moment
On my timeline

Capture me please
Let me be absorbed.
Hold time delicately
As you wave and say hello
I want you to live here
In my consciousness
So I can meditate on 
The beauty...

Once upon a night so bleak,
frozen silent laid the creek --
air of death, pushed, swore
and swore...as if were fists
pounded the frail, wood door;

shutters noised, bolting and
banging; metal hinges oddly
clanging – cupboard glasses
adding more tumultuous tang, 
as they, in vile unison, vibrantly rang…

suddenly, through frosted pane

A bird sits at my window
passing the time with a song.
Where it came from -
I do not know.
Will it sing for me very long -
I cannot say.
I think today...
I will sing along....

ceased, but lingering
unsettled energy circling
still pondering my desire to be loved
hearts in pews calling in my direction
though I don't open my eyes to see

I felt I saw beyond the faces
with my complicated expectations 
all that is and isn't true
undone by dissection 
citing any discrepancy as...
