To Navigate The Land Of Nod

                          Unlike nights of yesteryear

This way to avoid that shoulde...

Highway in the Rain

...
First light’s cracking, night still grips,
to the blacktop rider's gleaming wings.
Wipers thumping the old two-by-two beat,
Tyres hissing down rain-slick street.
I’m breathing deep, holding on ...

Love Me Like I Am Spills Of Flowers

Spills of flowers everywhere - elation !  
I love to water each petal with joy

Yesterday I was sixteen
Driving my first car
A Ford I bought from Joey K
I blew the doors off it

My skin is mottled; I look like a distorted giraffe

Chronic Pain

...No one believes me

Demons and Fireflies

...Major depression crept in,
seeped through my defences like smoke,
the devil shimmying off my shoulder,
setting up a nest in my brain-
a puppeteer of despair,
fingers dancing on my strings,
turn...

The lizard Wizard

...Paranoia guides my gaze to the wall,
Where a dragon stands, fierce and tall.
His tongue flicks with a wicked gleam,
But something’s wrong no fiery fire stream.

He snarls, yet no flames arise,

Changing Seasons, Changing Moods

...I'm raised in SoCal, calm weather agrees,
and you, from Boston, know weather, severe.
Our states of mind match these climates I fear.
Like Winter sadness, leaves fall from your trees, 
and then I...

Suns simple request

...The sun was impassioned by the moons prevailing ability 
I insist you listen to my imploring whispers..

We shall waltz through the stars 
Existing for indefinite time

And when i flare up impu...

Flare-up

...
   festivals flare up
   in July’s fever
     cooler instruments prevail over time

   snare-drums’ syncopation
   grass skirts' gyrations
     blank verse douses their rhyme

Love you more dear

My sweet sweet love. My dear I am
Here for you.  Do you feel freer now
How do you fair love love more flare
Care feel ...
