Deconstructed Emotions
The world is falling
but we fly with poetry;
Soaring through pages;
Deconstructed emotions
spill like tea onto the floor.

Deconstructed Christmas
Growing up in Ohio it was easy to find my Christmas spirit with the snow and cold within my reach…but after moving to Florida I wondered how I’d ever find my Christmas spirit in the warmth or on the beach.
Well I must admit despite my initial reservations…(yes, even I am stunned)
to discover there is that

Chaos Theory Deconstructed

the sunday sermon
barring nature
from self-organizing
believed to be a sin

bitter cold with warm
moist masses collide with dry
forming in the closet of night
and breach of day
an ephemeral sign
forming a why
where heaven never shows
and no Word appears
but a humble messenger
without trumpet or salutation
now descending
in silence drawn

Deconstructed Punch Face Fist Face Forever
strings burst sirens
(slowly silently)
lights strobe ears blinding
(talk talk talk)
hardly listen speaking mumbles
(shout quicker)
heavy bass resonates between
(envelop everyone)
down drink upside down
(laugh joyous)
quite entertaining millions
(thousands mourn)
not funny own
(never funny alone)
punched face fist face
(pain abounds sorrow)
blood falls face punched fist
(scars form)
blood face falls floor fist removes face
(bruises rage)
placed down bodies side
(tired upset chaos)
unclenches
(relax)
night ends sticky floors
(motionless diseased)
fight ends
