Lexis Affair

The air was disturbed 
by wispy soft strings
the tickles uncurbed, 
like hummingbird wings;
the beat in my chest 
it stuttered a spell
and dared risk a rest, 
a moment to dwell.

The stir of his verse 
had fractured...

Make Every Moment Count

Make every moment count...
this is the promise I make to myself,
to deny the certainty of death:
an assumption stripped of all reality;
and it daunts others, not me...
as long as I get that glimpse of eternity!

Be an...

Dreams Sublime

There are stairs that I climbed
Obscure and vague
Stars shown in the darkness
Not a cloud in the sky
And I climbed toward the blue cloud
Angels peeped and watched silently
A place called dreamland lay sublime
Not our place, but...

From Cradle To Grave

A fetus being nurtured
within a mother's womb.
Ready to experience life
and indulge in all of life's
pleasurable moments.
Eager to endure everything
that was once endured vicariously.
Now from the first person.
A life so precious and innocent.
What will become of...

Grey

A few things represent me:
The color grey for example,
She's a beaute, isn't she?
I've felt drawn to her, especially when my soul had been just that, grey. 
It has then gone on to taint my soul,...

Goodnight

Nights spent, drenched in fear
Knives available, pills in abundance
Weight of the world, shoulders bear too much
Journey's end is close, any further, too far
Will buckles again, giving up once more.

Dreams revisit reality, rest does not restore
Eyes...

Larry's Cove

Grass growth in the cove
			 where Larry's boat sat 
			 years after Larry’s ash
			 whirled with rocks in space
			 daunts the pickerel:
			 silently galloping glut
			 challenges the channel.
			 Someday soon there may be
			 no seeing...

Listen To Your Heart

Selfishness fills the soul with fear
Breaks the heart with a gentle tear
Ego evokes the nature’s lure
Peace with God is the only cure

Pride destroys all the heart’s best dreams
Promising answers for life’s schemes
Breathless prayers right and...

Glum Yet Grateful

Here comes the dawn
of a thoughtful Mourn. 
Month of the desecrated demise
of a Monumental personage.

Unpleasant feels beclouds the air
I consume,
My structure reconciles itself
to the dreadful wake of the dawn.

Hushed his grief within,
As though He counts...

All Hallow's Moon

Oh souls that brave All Hallow's moon
whose shadowed face would bid us swoon.
We stare upon your ghostly veil
a-flight on twilight's empty trail.

And yet, we delve where darkness daunts
to fathom mystery, know what haunts
our souls when...

Confused

I am more than a menace to society
There’s a twist in my sobriety
Please help me sculpt my destiny
Help me return to incorruptibility

Why do I believe Google not your holy book?
Why do I trust the teacher...

That Rule Was Begging To Be Broken

That rule was begging to be broken
Y’know the one about women?
Of conformity for cat calls and 
Gift wrapped shoulders and legs?
How about “no” to breastfeeding 
How about “whore” for “too revealing”?
I’m sick of these notions,...

The Dark Night

The dark of night brings sharp things to mind
I must search for peace, to find
Visions re-played that I can’t avoid now
A part of life, I must accept somehow
Images and fear, return from long ago, new

Alliteration  alludes alliance 
Defeats deductive daunts defiance
Connects constructive conjugation
Needs a niche nice new libation

Never neglect nor need to know
Poor people perfectly pronouncing please
Nine nimble ninnies on knobby...

Afraid of a Mirror

Afraid of a mirror
that daunts you with horror?
What's your fear
of not looking 
and admitting
you have a funny ear?


Fretted to look into a mirror
that won't suggest
the word " Beauty? "
I anticipate your anger
and unpleasant words that
won't...

Peace

Sand sifts,
My mind lifts,
The ideas of reflection,
My lack of self-protection,
Is something that haunts,
My mind which daunts,
The strength within,
All my chagrin,
Is spelled across my face,
Chasing the desire to erase,
Every regret,
I’m not finished yet,
I’ll continue to push,
Rather...

He became my enricher.
He has supplied my needs,

Happy October

October trees, they sway in the wind
A tangerine tango that taunts the tinges

October leaves, they swirl in the breeze
A vermilion whirligig that vaunts the whispers

October hues, they swagger the mind
A rubicund rollicking that haunts the...

MY ONE FEAR


There is a thing--

A Sweet Little Lie

I struggle to tell her this truth,
I consult with her pleasing smile.
Woe is a world where flaws exist,
As stains breed until flavors amend.
She hears me mince through fearful smarm,
Pandora hopes she leaves this peek alone.
