I listen to my neighbors toilet flush, it takes a long time for the sound to drain away and refill, I settle deeper between my ears cognizant of the cadence of its slow rise and fall. The trash compactor chews on for a grinding stretch after I switch it off. Uncomfortably heated body-bellows voice out as a hurried meal speaks on. This is not silence minor...

This morning when I went to walk The streets were slick with rain, But certain blocks were icy So the message was quite plain: Don’t take a chance; just turn around. There’s no need to complain, For it you fall, you’ll lose much more Than with this walk you’d gain. Obeying such an edict really Goes against the grain And in the past, from such...

The shape of my heart was square All corners saying beware I get broken easily Don't give in or you will see Me crumble, not mending quick There are more deceits and tricks By con men who do not want True love, they carelessly flaunt Lies to set an evil trap They spring upon you and snap Your world into a big mess So watch out...

When the parents are gone, the kids survive by heeding advice and carry on their wishes by honoring their true intent; flowers sprout and then bloom, never living their fragile, little ones to a fateful gloom... as sunshine nurtures them! Glimpses may not give us a full image, but they can reveal their glossary of life and death, and it depends on us...

Jockeying my fortunes, I moved efforts on the sly, Did many things on tip toe and fly, Some of it was good and right, Most of it was bad mocking forthright, I killed and maimed many winged hopes, In efforts to get in my ropes, Now that I sit back and count, All that I gained and found, The balance is simply not there, There...
