Random Dream

...Raw like apples on a tree.
Waiting on my journal to come to life. 
Having too many bumble bees who don’t know much.

    I love the colour of my skin,
    Au naturel suave evergreen.
    From head to toe, and deep within,

or a golden field of wheat
beneath a hazy summer sky—
but he took her brushes,
left the bristles splayed,
the paints dried out,
and the turpentine cloudy.

ODE TO THE BALD AND BEAUTIFUL

...He primps that dome like it’s his crown,
A shiny orb, the talk of town.
Shaves that bowling ball twice a day,
No rogue hairs dare to stay.

Refined olive oil, scentless, slick—
His scalp’s own ...

...Plain droplets plink downward risk-free.
Rain, that bristles on panes, weighty.
Rip-roaring, soaring, not boring,
as wind assists an outpouring.
Angled and claustrophobic dance.

A CHRISTMAS WITHOUT YOU

...The church bells' solemn chimes echo through the street, casting a mournful shadow over what should be a joyful time.

Hair brush through my hair, no rush.
The wrinkles will not slow, but time

The bed softly creaks as our eyes speak.
They do not stare as th...

But I grew up when Burma Shave signs were all the rage!
