					in medias res  not knowing nor caring when

Date August  10,  2040

Pleasant dream just because 
He wanted to make love. She
Drowsyly responded to his 
Belly caressing, "Yes, Damian 
I'm sleeping, soo... tired." 
He said, "ooh, that's alright."
He...

both pitched against one dynamic, lifelong achievement"

Poking through the woods of the Mill Grove Audubon Estate,
suddenly came upon an ivy-covered studio shed
tucked away amongst foliage near Perkiomen Creek,
apparently...

foisted upon her was the merry go round crystal chandelier

it stuck in her beautiful mind like a beacon of flaming desire

I saw you …

high …
atop the promontory
spinning with manic madness
pirouettes et fouetté
lost in yourself -
in movement …
your upper back split, low
and, I swear -
feathers … peeking …
tucked under your shoulder blades
splayed and black as black

Gone through anxiety and hallucinations — hate this phase

I took several selfies in the dark
Tonight, I want to sing my heart out

"Invisible"



Trapped
within 
4 Walls 
A ghost 

escapes
it's prison 
through 
unlocked door

beyond
freefall
a bird
now soars

The Ocean 
calls the wild
Sargasso in
Me

Rochester’s 
Mirage 
ecstatic 
Bacchae
 
Maenad 
possessed 
submerged
Blue-Green

(Ladylabyrinth/2020)
for my daughter, 
Georgia

Stench unfathomable, seething and snarling
His great lungs expanding and exhaling puffs of darkness
Slanted, shining, scorching eyes burning into my own

What light shines but His own? 
Have...

I never told anyone how my ears reverberate in a silent room.
The whirring drone ever present, a conquistador of my private spaces.
This is my cohabitation with an industrial generator.
But I’ve graduated from the torment.

I know you want to appear tough
You want to pull off cool
Being a strong macho man

I gaze out the window of my soul,
Scanning a distant horizon where dreams and reality intertwine,
Seeing patches of ethereal clouds,
Drifting across the vast expanse of the blue sky.

My Dear and Special Friend
Deep inside of my folly, a
