She

safe for Your future
And She will cry of lost children
morbid oblivion,
damnation and...

Dead Crush
"Dead Crush"
Oh uplift me woman
if we were to have a
conversation would
bees fly out of your mouth
or just mewling, simpering
watered-down honey
not so pristine, just soft
and somewhat
ingratiatingly tainted
you ply uplifting
romantic notions
like an air...

5
"5"
benevolence and favour
seemed to be absent
in the world
grace, a name
whispered before
a meal shared
5 fingers
on each hand
steeples, hiding people
games played
in reverence
as a child
war paint
bleeding
signs
in the footprints
the number of...

O Witless Quill
"O Witless Quill"
O witless quill
sharply dipped in smiles leering
joust they your words
on their egos competing
galloping black stallions, see them fall
shiny armour felled knights
and petulant proud Queens now all shiny amour, in their saddles riding
Merry rogers

He had no clue how to spell the word coy,
He was consumed by a quest that
A wife bear,
And give birth to a male heir,

Time Traveler Who Would You Choose To Be If You Could?
Have you ever sat or laid down
Deep in thoughts that float
Into your mind and your imagination
Creates a movie
What if those thoughts made you think
About your ancestors and what kind of life they had
Putting yourself...

The Poems I Never Wrote
I have pages of unfinished poems, most a menial scribble.
Thoughts, simple phrases, baited hooks without a nibble.
Rhyming lines lost like balls because of my faulty dribble
or tossed aside because my muse and I began to...

The Legacy of Anne Boleyn
She stands all alone in a court full of men
An innocent woman condemned
The charges are great, she's resigned to her fate
She knows she will die in the end
Though she is in despair she's standing tall...

In Pacifica
In Pacifica
I despise that portrait of me.
The likeness ends
with the name.
Yes, Jane Seymour, unbeheaded
Queen of England.
No, not of pinched thin lips
and sharp bird-beak nose.
Those hideous wimples
tented on over plucked foreheads
displaying protruding toad eyes....
I was not...

Overexertion
Perpetual
Intellectual
Mother
Just another
Smother, then cover
“Too weak to recover”
“Be our good maid”
“Just to be betrayed”
“Don’t give her a voice!”
It’s not love if there’s no choice.
To deal with perpetual self-assertion
The old sisterhood of overexertion!

Silent Watcher
SILENT WATCHER
Oh the things she's seen,
Pterodactyls swooping low,
Nagasaki all aglow,
Iceage creeping over land,
Maradonna's cheating hand,
Armstrong making one giant leap,
Humpbacks singing in the deep,
Tutankhamen's golden face,
Unbeaten Frankl's final race,
Titanic's iceberg breaking free,

Noli Me Tangere--Ode To Anne Boleyn
"Noli Me Tangere"--Ode to Anne Boleyn
Beguiling and strong willed,
Thick hair and black eyes--
Average beauty at best--
Maneuvered Court, so skilled
(Though taunted by their lies)
The King you put to test.
Oh, dear Anne Boleyn!
You chose not your fate.
