Exciting walk; barefoot on warm rock while cold spring water
burbles past me. “Hey! over here.” she calls. 
A puppet, my instinct guides me there again;
Creek ends in dark green pond. “Hi” I answer.

My body tingles...

Humorous Humors and tumorous assumers and crazy-fascinated consumers spend their money with wings on luxuries of the heart, going topsy-turvy over pleasures and expensive firs

Works in vicious ways and is a great malaise
It fosters hatred and ruptures many hearts,
Angry words can...

I thought was my friend, through and through.
But little did I think it would hit back on me
Like a boomerang, breaking my heart.

to hear your ear piercing scream through the fog

whispering to no one but the silent ceiling above me

watching it take distance in leaps & bounds
as if up ahead

Sun kissed skin glows in the bright rays
Sitting on the green grass on a warm summer’s day
You look at me
You only smile for a second and mumble the words “you’re beautiful”

'How long will you keep me waiting'
That's what she said
well at least in my head
'How long will it take

Sticking up for myself
had always been a sticky thing.

High school drafting class
Mr. Knobloch, white shirt, black tie
Marine haircut, lantern jaw,

I was careless and lost your love
or does it only seem that way
words can be weapons

for I will never find another like you
I see us dancing under the stars
as the...

There is a disconnect
between me, myself and I
or should that be among?
The editor in me is always
there ready to correct
me and gets really irate if
I blurt out “Donald and myself”
instead of “Donald and I”
when we...

Based on a poem by Tim Gunderman

Fight to breathe, fight to cease
our endless warring broken for the chaos we call peace.

I do believe, but will concede
that the battle doesn't mean a person is or isn't...

a 
disintegrated 
sense 
of 
trust
cast out into the vast wilderness
running in the dark amidst only the
rabid carnivores following, stalking &
waiting on every move---
every footstep, every single breath is

while the smell of sweat lures.

there are the...

with no scent of doubt in his breath,
even as its aroma reeked from mine, 
as I'd blurt out "how can you be so sure?"

As I walk along my feet freely wander
as my mind seems to run and ponder

Shift around this chair
You just make me
