Mobile In Alabama

Those were such happy days, for I had lately been deeded a farm,

For Kerri and April

A cacophony of cheers
Sand sprays like fireworks
From feet, hands, ball, hair.
Four women, two-a-side,
In a battle for the ages.

A motion of fluidity and a
Knowledge brought forth
From years in the fray.
Sun, rain, the elements,
Just more adversaries

In a...

using the rulers marked to their own standard;
some cry, some sigh, some worry to death, while others,

For Who I Am

Naked trunks stand sentinel 
In the dead of silence where I was born.
Softly, snow drifts in the early hour,
My First Hour,
Blinding me to the truth of who I could be.
Freezing, bare, I scurry from tree...

Music

All music is relational
Even if the instrument itself is unconscious: 
Like tree leaves in a breeze
Telegraph their praise in God's presence,
Dot and dash an earthy hymn;
Like an earthquake whose rumblings
Remind you that in geological time

A Rattling Rhyme

Everything had gone well and the night was still young,
she had made her intentions quite clear,
home alone we're not walking, the drink was now talking,

Strong
Come
You secreted me
Hormonally
You’re stress,
You take my...

The Japanese singer with the
