Final Nesting BoxYou lay in the wooden cot,
a broken sparrow,
Crushed. Bony. Frail.
Hair once plumed gold,
greyed to clumped feathers
like ragged trampled wings,
strawed out on the dank pillow.
Face once blushed pink plump,
Jolly kind of soft with life,
Sucked to...

Queer TheoryOld Jane Gallagher,
she was fine,
in that sun shining on an every-day-girl sort of way.

funny
how young women enter men’s senses and take...

To Hug Granddad AgainTo crouch beside him in the rows,
Counting seeds beneath rainbows.

She smelled of Italy, with peppermint breath that clung sweet
each time she kissed me affectionately with love-caress
She told...

Life Draws Me AwaySleepily the night's rain and morning fog

The Fourth DimensionSeeking sight of another’s like for what thine own eyes like,
Perchance a Starbuck drink ye’ drunk, or a sun dunked up a hike.

Clacking AwayWhen home computers made their way
Into our homes, things changed
And desks in dens or bedrooms
