Exclusion
I know the game of exclusion,
have played it all my life and
now I've mastered it,
a talent to brag about.
Exclusion from normality,
the joy of inclusion.
Exclusion from continuity,
the malaise of discontinuity,
the permanent otherness.
It's a mystery how it...

Musings of a Girl In a Very Strange Place
In every home
there is a place
That is always forgotten,
Is it
Festering with ants
Or
Inhabited by gnomes?
I don't know what goes on
There
In every
Cranny and nook.
And perhaps I never will ever
Know.
But the the buried corner feels like a song
Without...

Self-Therapy: Side-By-Side and Apart

that is not flying high
the moon is so powerful
the yellow grey clouds protective of,
The light blue sky that turns Blue
Latter the white clouds,
Suddenly my memories travel Radical

Yet found tales of folly, arrogance and cruelty in profusion

What direction to a righteous life, discernment,...

Link In Time
Sometimes there is a time,
Where a thing at a certain time,
With a blink,
Appears to link,
It can be a feeling,
A word, a seeing
or even beauty of dreaming.
Remember that dream you had?
Did anything in reality associate?
It...

Plentiful clover carpet compresses

Scripted mouth emits, put to practical test
Three leaf varieties finally defeated

Coveting customer jumps at his chance
Increased green...

That homed the pains & stains of degeneration..
Murmuring the mystery of a bygone generation!
Now light hesitates to penetrate inside..
But this was the place that...

Stelae 7:30 Am
True,
they have seen more
than their age.
But in the hazy,
half morning
field of “stelae”,
we, somnambulant
observers,
select our optimal view
between the pages of the Talmud.
Coded,
In the text of your staccato voice,
there is,
our consensual agreement of being.
It is not...

The Old Straight Track climbs up towards the ridge,
A tangent to this ancient burial ground
Where Bronze Age bodies slumber under mounds;
In number, nine, each barrow with a ditch.
Who were these folk that lie beneath this...
