A Reflection on That Time I Let My Husband Cut My Hair
He said he’d watched a tutorial.
He said symmetry was a myth
fueled by Big Geometry.
I laughed. That was my first mistake.
My second was passing him the scissors
without asking him about his dominant hand.
(It was vibes. His hand was vibes.)
Snip.
He called it edgy. I called it
accidentally spiritual—
because seeing your own scalp
before coffee
is a kind of awakening.
He apologized...

BeckyBecky, I believe that I am dying.
I feel the icy angel hovering near.
Our time together swiftly now is flying
And I must leave you all alone my dear.
Becky dear, I ask you now to hold me.
Freely I admit that I was wrong.
I really should have heeded what you told me.
Temptation never did find me that strong.
Becky,...

A Husband's DiscretionEverything "mine" becomes "ours" and then "hers."
Everything "hers" remains her sole possession.
In marriage the ownership line always blurs
And as a mere husband I'd better not question...
Silence can be the best part of discretion.

What My Mother Does After My Father's DeathShe finds a bird
fallen from its nest,
crashed like an apple
to the ground.
Sliding her fingers through
the rain soaked grass,
she scoops the quivering
ball of feathers into her palm.
She takes it inside, to the same kitchen
where she wept
over her dead husband
every night for nearly a decade.
She feeds it baby formula
from an eye-dropper, whispering
I believe in...

One Too Many
‘You’ve had one too many’
Declared old Paddy’s wife
She always spoiled his evenings
With her ‘trouble’ and her ‘strife’
‘I’m absolutely sober’
He replied with much aplomb
‘I’ve only had a couple
And I’m drinking beer, not rum’
‘I don’t care what you’re drinking,
You don’t know when to stop
I rue the day I married you
You useless, boozy sop’
‘Oh, hold your...

SupercalifragilisticexpialidociousYour good love strengthens bones like sunshine
My nose, a rose, a toast of red wine
The great flames of passion licking hot
though evenings grow, firsts sometimes forgot
Forgot that tender morn our eyes met
Hot with extraordinary sweat, wet
Wine, a blush cabernet, sparkling smiles
Sunshine spotless, a wonderful while
Would I forget Heaven's first...

He wanted to Domesticate his Lovely WifeHe wanted to domesticate his lovely wife
This misogynist plan caused him lots of strife
She went after him with a sharpened carving knife
Ruined my life! He laments. She ruined my life!...

The Sea RemembersThe sea remembers all it cannot keep,
Each wave a story, crashing into shore,
Its secrets held in silence, buried deep.
A sailor's prayer, a widow’s dreamless sleep,
The driftwood echo of a lover’s lore—
The sea remembers all it cannot keep.
It sings of storms and treasures lost in sweep,
Of shipwrecked years and voices heard no more,
Its secrets held in...

Winter Turning Into Springtimel remember days of silver
turning into lakes of snow
ice crystals touch, from stars above me
Winters shimmers, did grow and grow.
l walked the gentle flowing rivers
when the trees stretched arms to me
l dream't your kiss , my softest wishes
as falling from the sky , to me.
There were snowflakes wings on powdered waters
but grey skies...
