Her pregnancy was like an open book
quite readable with just a cursory look.
She wore a gown that trailed in white

A QUIET RETREAT: PART ONE
I retreated to the edge of Maine,

Midnight Thoughts

...When your blue eyes
Looked at my brown eyes,
Like the sky came to kiss the earth
With honour during the morning dew on the snowdrops. 
It makes me want to wish I were your perfume, 
So you c...

Careless Moments

...I should have grinned when morning came
Atop posts of gaping day, with lunatics
Humming dirges of a broken world.

...They say the willow weeps for me
They play the willow song
What if the willow laughs and we

metal bolts, the stink of bleach
my hands were calm for once—

Venom of ignorance

...There was a man I knew—
 bitten by ignorance’s venom.
All his life, he groped through shadows,
  searching for cures in the dark—
   but he found none,

She looked in the mirror, a frown on her face,
her mind filled with worry and fear

The sorrow she wears, she just can't erase,

Tinge Terrific

...Tinge, thy colors terrific.
Weather wave, point where?
Heaven and Hell, this may stick!

who dreamed of speaking every word.

it gets out and flies in search of mischief.
