A Call To Action

Rebellion and riverbeds start to dance 
with a rush flowing, slowing, then stalling. 
Both try perilously to gain traction,
the current is treacherous take a stance.
It may appear that you’re barely crawling,
and then brute force takes over a fraction. 
At times the first step is all you can do
but it’s enough to get something going. 
Often

February's Warm

The shower out there fully clothed in snow,
An a.m. stays, so will I remember —       
A kiss let go in cold air, heaven white — 
The very look of you through aspen boughs,
How midnight blew while icicles scattered —          

Dreams Within Dreams

I walked on stage.
Singing one of Cyndi Lauper's songs.
I sang a sweet melody, and everyone sang along.
My voice sounded sweet and strong.
I woke up from my slumber.
Realizing that it was just a dream.
I didn't hear my mother call me.
Telling me that it was time to go to school.
I decided to sleep a bit more.
Falling into

The Route

Right now I’ve still got all this fight in me,
even as I wage war with bulletproof;
I’m ready sucker punch for the knockout;
Enemies try but just fall short daily,
hardwired sarcasm explodes with a poof;
This was never an exhibition bout.
What lies deep within will not diminish,
I wish this inner conflict would ease ooph!
I’d gladly laugh and let

Primary Laws Of Magic

There must be a square to form a circle,
four women to call every element;
Together they are a force of nature,
joined by every celestial particle;
An equation’s sum has no argument,
there’s no solution except an answer;
Spell-casting as one the strongest skill,
in the air hangs their collective flavor;
Bound and connected for the moment,
primary laws of magic always will

a grown up baby

eternal infancy
enjoyed all his life
indulgent parents
a grown up baby
knowing no strife
odd predicament

give the catfish some grace

a foul-mouthed catfish splashed me in the face
the water I swallowed was foul, smelled like fish
I was annoyed at the beast, wanted to kill it
it is God’s creature, give it some grace!
This was said to me by my neighbor Ms. Swish.
Who felt differently after her finger it bit.

A Fraction

I hear your siren song from the deep sea,
why are you in so thunderous a rage?
 Still I feel this magnetic attraction,
drawing me into a cliff’s symphony;
I’ll willingly throw myself in that cage,
as much for me as your satisfaction;
Giving myself to the forces at play
I’m addicted to treacherous passion;
I don’t want it if the goal’s

The Thunder Advance

Black and white rainbow with tornado eyes 
spinning spotting hard on a lightning bolt;
Such electricity in a slow dance;
Rhythm picks up with the darkening skies 
lingering on finger tip’s gentle jolt;
Detonation of pomp and circumstance 
but really it’s merely a soft whisper;
Beginning with a lock of the deadbolt
you rendered me immobile with a chance
to feel

Her Ruckus

Provocative tears and a face that frowns
accompany a costume so ornate;
She’s happy to come and entertain us,
with a flip tumbles in the Queen of Clowns;
Playing the Fool’s a charasmatic trait,
she comes to each field on a charter bus;
Without stepping off greeted by fanfare,
a frenetic crowd awaits at each gate;
They ogle and follow tempestuous,
moving from town

Matthew: Turned Profit

Long ere breaths a chalice dawn, eternal
trials beleaguered gone, test the wayward course
yon distant clinks, bespoken image seized
his past governed weights in tallied journals
that time possess and nonesuch empty force
where quills and parchment favor bags clang-freed.
Light gusts midst a low mountain scroll past fish 
and bread, the first author writes his new creed,
"God is Emmanuel"

A Vampire And A Gentleman

He’s both a vampire and a gentleman, 
she longed to be a bride of the shadows;
They connected on a wooden dance floor;
To her he appeared perfect medicine;
How combative he was everyone knows,
no matter the rumors she just wants more;
Going to him right now would feel so good,
secure she was the woman that he chose;
This was

The Constant Morning

Apathy meets and coldly cells and rounds me,
A warm smile ills none than shape perfect eights,
Abrupt shadows the wall chilled seemingly unmoved,
Bold shades lightly now a pool of brightness forming,
Basking moments restyling event the wholeness takes,
Bound to its duty to make a welcoming change so smooth,
Cast away those hours that forced your eyes shut,
Claim and

The Manna

A soloist Java Sparrow flits,
A cathedral canopy of arched branched leaves,
The sparkling daylight dances the vast green space,
Moss glut rock form protrudes aground sits,
Pews of raw design entertain flocks trade eaves,
Sparrows respect prompts to spring cascading grace,
Heaven gifted natural blessings flow,
Dove coos the flock of Sparrow's faithful pace,
A breath of peace on Earth nature receives,
Bestilled

Frayed Senses

The secrets that we keep leave us fevered
in those moments when we must be apart;
Your spirit circles me throughout the day 
I moan as our liaison’s remembered;
In another world your perfect sweetheart,
instead my scarlet cheeks won’t go away;
When I look at you my eyes can’t hide it;
Are you able to feel sultry thoughts start?
Around you
