and run the fabric through its course
making perfect seams.

fit me with lots of little tugs,
call me a handsome little man

No matter where I am, I am alway just,
sitting there. Unaware, with a blank stare messy hair
and probably the same clothes that I always wear.
Wrangler jeans, and a button...

Stood for peace and love also political movement

Loose control

Cause I want to feel your heart beat
My lips on your skin
Then kisses to your neck
My arms around your body

Uncovered
I button up my cardigan
The weather's closing in.
I'm follically challenged,
not my hairline, but my skin..
As the clouds begin to gather

I twist my collar skyward..
deploy my bumbershoot.
And so.. I hurry past...

“I’ll chase them far away.”

An Old Flannel Shirt
An old flannel shirt with two button up the front pockets
Well-worn, soft, in faded colors of greens, reds, and blues.
A touch of green, and some bits of yellow, almost Christmas like.

Banging beauty with propellant power
Bends no ear for mercy--
Body batters tempo hour after hour.

Dashing dreams into the dust

Olde Expensive
Old Expensive
The snow is falling, so, I button up my head,
above it, Someone’s sound – “above a street lamp”.
Music, leaks in, the lampshade sways,
hanging above a stained in bed;
Freddie gave it all for champagne.
Until, the...
