Pablo Neruda TranslationsI love you only because I love you

Between apathy and desire.
My heart vacillates...

Visit To AntietamAlone I arrive, walking from Frederick
over the gaps, across gentle hills
out onto a knoll
overlooking this burnished landscape.
Before me I see countless writhing rows
of indiscernible shapes gathered
in terrible rituals mid fire and smoke
darkening the sun.
From distant...

Dramatic Monologue
Sweet Little Marigold
She was a dairymaid, oh so sweet;
many a year ago.
Her figure was trim, her hair was neat,
with ringlets tied up in a bow.
And many a farmer would leave his plough,
the turkeys and chickens, and even...

Truth To TruthTRUE ...
You know not those dark
Places, mine, the dull, black
Chasms that hold a mind
When it's bare - stark and
Keen and cold ... when it's
Left with itself for time
Unquenchable, out of the
Streams of consciousness
And normality, scraped...

50 Words For Poe: Strangelove
"50 Words for Poe: Strangelove"
Strangelove was waiting
in Holdnerness
He was anticipating
with a certain glee
The “Arrival” of
Ms Bon Vivant, her sharpness
and sharing conversation
over Kumquat Jam, Scones and
clotted cream at High...

The One In the Lavender DressShe looked peaceful in her lavender dress-
as I suppose she was. Eyes closed as if lost
in childhood dreams, small hands folded across her chest.
Her glasses resting beside her auburn strands,
lips pleading for color, her face...

Having Felled ItThe warmth no longer comes
it seems to only leave.
The furry ones, all
caught in hypnotic disbelief:
hardening ground's
taken root
where once
gardening grounds
(forsaken, mute)

like a leaf
(though, truth be told
I've only ever
seen 'em...

Steel Sharpened SpursEndurance is not of your nature,

Now brazen silver does linger,
Trite lance, ravenous knife does make one last,
Sorrowful trek...
I know you'll adore each compassioned endeavor,
And your canvas lay...

Aubade On the Morning AfterIm half awake, and glaring at the sunrise

Getting closer to Autumn
In deep thought near a marble column
Always doing things that lead me quickly into a coffin
Overlooked, abused and forgotten
Felt like I had zero in common
So I kept staying solemn
Because people are quick...
