Tapestry of Broken Threads

...
Sometimes I wake, at least believing I have, 
but find that I'm wandering about, 
perhaps dreaming while walking in a mist, 
through empty halls where moonlight 
doesn't stream through wind...

“Our  lives are but  a—
       Blink!
                    …Hardly
         an instant-in-time
In an infinite/cosmic 
                     timelinedesign…”

Your Absence

...In-fact
I don’t want
to dwell in your absence

Necessary life is rushing gradually

Silent breaths
draw the mural
of reinstated epic 

No bridge of love but a long-live sigh

The verse of...

Gotta Go

...Books to the library
photos to family.
Paint cans and lumber
from renovations years ago.
Most of the furniture
including the piano.
Fastest way to do this
is rent a dumpster.

The House On the Hill

...The House On The Hill 

Bleak, the naked 
     windswept lanes, 
Lashing skin, 
    unforgiving rains

A windy view of rooftop world
The deeping sky with clouds unfurled

An outlined fort of broken bricks
A winding lane of artists' ...
