Premium Memberluna moth

attracted to light
landing on my porch
delighting faeries
not a damselfly
not a firefly

from the near woods
child of the night
a dainty wisp
just visiting

something lithe
something light
mystical

harried freeway drive
stress in the morning
stress in the evening
tension in my back
waiting for a crash

race car drivers
stressing me out
motorcycles
sirens flashing

semi trucks
traffic stops
terrified

Premium MemberMonday Girl

I’m a Monday girl
waking with the Sun. 
Revved up and ready,
just give me coffee.
Ambition on fire. 

I will show you 
what I can do.
I was resting
now I’m solid. 

In the air 
it begins,
a vision.

Ready
to press

start.

Mirror's Grab

It's too dark for her.
She daubs mascara on glass.
The mirror has no arms...
Night's just in the morning.
There existing, the eyes ran

Upon former years, tears 
The mood stops, reflecting
Make faces, she's mine
Broken embers from limbs

Vice and crash,
Both's empty blood —
She's twisting surfacing

Barbwire that
Blocks out

Shards

Premium MemberA Wilderness of Mirrors

Apparitions behind every mottled rock.
Shaded countenance surreptitious like shadows.
Fractured slivers and fragments boast -
On wall, ceiling and floor.
Splattered drop cloth - reflective dread.

Fun house of Zeus,
The zigs and zags -
Thundering fakes, illuminated lies.
She claws her face.

Crags of wilderness.
Deep etched drama.
Whirlwind’s not glue.

One face.
One mirror.

Truth

Premium MemberIt's Not Too Late

No, it's not too late; 
It's n e v e r too late
to make your wrongs right,
to chase after dreams,
to a p o l o g i z e.

It's not too late
to fall in love,
to tell someone
your true feelings...

or to try
again, as 
long as you 

have breath 
within...

you.

Premium MemberAfterglow

bask with me, sweetheart, 
in the a f t e r g l o w
of gloaming sunset.
by nightfall, let's smile
with the crescent moon,

sing with the birds,
sigh with the wind,
wink at the stars; 
all snuggled up...

in comfort,
if you feel
so inclined.

well, what 
do you 

say?

Premium MemberSound waves

A song on repeat,
you just let it spin.
For the sole purpose 
to maim and torture,
on an endless loop.

The lyrics burn 
with a record 
of an abyss
that altered me.

I believed 
I was strong,
a current.

Sound-waves
prove I’m 

weak.

Matthew 18:10 KJV
"Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in heaven."


When you have done all
Everything you can
Recall the One who
Can do what you can't
God will care for you

When we are born

Premium MemberHEART'S PRAYER

breaking out of fear
seeking peace with tear
needing freedom gear
escaping from gloom’s steer
to love, drawing near…

soul in despair
cries for blest care
against cursed stare
midst what’s unfair…

faith smites doubt
conquers pout
from guilt’s route…

pride falls
heart calls…

God!*

*1Timothy 1:17 Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.

Painting Poetry

I don't like to read
Sleeping and dreaming
Good for my mind's health
Sometimes, write to check
The self how far apt

Don't insist me
To join the group
Of the contest
To be matey

I'll approach 
By nature

The earth
The heart

Maze

Here I am 
finally able to observe the maze from the outside 
And continue to run into dead ends 
Frantic, crazed in the beginning 
But no I have found the exit 

I am just a rat 
But how am I able to be aware that I am 
Does a fool know he's a fool, I
