LISTEN to the Wind

...We cannot direct the wind, but we can adjust the sails," by Dolly Parton ,

Hot summer was over. A mighty wind roared
     out of nowhere bringing back the nasty dark clouds.

Where did...

The Quiet Storm

...I feel it all.. the highs, the lows..
The silent grief that never shows.
I smile like I’ve not seen the fire..
But flames still flicker beneath the wire.

I play it cool, a practiced game..
Whi...

Inertia

...Inertia is a crawling, grappling feeling. 
With eyes. 
And the eyes do nothing. 
Neither his or mine. 

Inertia is mine. 
A glass feeling. 
Attempting to do things. 
Just peeling away instead...

Memories Buried In Time

...

My migratory mind indomitably mobile,
recedes with the ebb of time, seeks the shore of the past,
as the spirited surfer on the wandering waves of life, 
surging on curled crests carrying the f...

Deprived of Your Love

...
I died when you denied our love a chance.
You went on avoiding me, breaking my heart.
Like a pearl locked in an oyster,
You have sealed your heart, barring entry.
What currents flow...

The Riverboat Revenant

...She sails where the bayou kisses the tide,
a phantom queen with a mournful glide.
The paddle churns, though no hands steer,
and jazz floats faint on a breeze unclear.

Her lanterns burn with a g...

Picking at Scabs - Apr 9

...—it’s the black boil on bursting, boiling ribs—
on my midleft chest, brewing bungled churns,
[tighteningmybreath], again, again, it yearns,
it begs*, “just one (just two) more (well-earned) rub(s)...

Prescription Drugs

...The synthetic poison
that courses through my veins
churns the bowel of the earth
and sent a tremor through my heart.

What kind of remedy this is?

It heals one part,
But devastates the other...

Fress

...Pit 
in my 
stomach churns.
You always fress,
leaving me broken.
Your black heart consumes me 
then spits me back up in chunks.
A meal that’s so nutrient dense,
never leaving room for rich de...

My Bloody Valentine

...*Vaaz= vase 

You offered roses delivered thorns, blood drips and your body adorns ~
Slumped, soaked in crimson your heart forever mine, retribution has come, my bloody valentine—by Poet

Looking for Keys At Gotta-Go Time

...
gosh, look at the time!

he's gotta go
immediately!
wherever he's headed 
punctuality is a must,
he can't just go yet...
his mind 
in utter disarray,
repeatedly screaming...

"where'...

Rain

...Love falls like rain,
Onto my waxed face. 
Blending into tears of pain, 
From an unknown place.

I can’t think straight, 
I can’t see clearly,
I can’t love anymore.
 
My sight blurr...

Through

...Each morning I rise, with gratitude in my soul,
Life’s a battle I face, but I never lose control.
Through the trials I stand, with my head held high,
I trust that tomorrow will come, and today wil...

Her Autumn Kimono was Goofed

...Coal tar zombie mouth leaks town gas syrup 
Meat hook telegraphy indicator cameras hypnagogic 
Liverwurst elegy beneath the frosting 
Cinderblock reverie churns with mildew

Manus? Grilled chees...

Under the leaden sky, the rain drips its melancholy in the rhythm of cold tears

...Under the leaden sky, the rain drips its melancholy in the rhythm of cold tears,
On my stained oak coffin, the tattered shirt absorbs the crimson hues,
Where the earth churns in the silence of my e...
