on pacified cheekbones
instead of in liver
from whence it sprung
now it burns to feed
HeartSpace with witty

From cheekbones

fall on this crisp autumn morn,

my little ship the current rides

Gavin, help me.
Your innocence is coveted now, you see.

beneath the intricate furl,
the first to be created; light
colored, attractively beautify,
exposing all thing to every situation; these light

Sometimes
Sometimes------
Things get so bad
And you can't even tell God
So you prop yourself up in a corner
And you wait for the world to stop moving
And you think that the spin might subside
But it doesn't------
So you...

Lonely Awaits
Lonely Awaits
This gathering furl of past
Rising from love’s once moist heart
Now but dry sorrow
Lingering stubbornly
Where once its canvas
Of vibrant color
Rainbowed the future
Today only flaking memories small
Drift downward
Joining queues of bygone erosion
Where emotions of stalwart bedrock

Eve of Storms
EVE OF STORMS
As I look towards the horizon,
Without hesitation,
But with determined yet
Heartfelt trepidation,
And see a distant angry
Storm forging forth
Its spluttering vicious curvaceous
Fearful advance holds my gaze
With historical ageless
Heartfelt emotions,
That sink and dive,
And furl...

In blazoned flower

And secret petal nooks
Pondered on description

And his borrowed breathing
Of Oxygen

A Butterfly Inside
I feel a butterfly inside;
its wings are cramped within my breast.
The weight of flesh, o dull cocoon,
prohibits my free flight. At best
I only soar inside; my wings--
gossamer, light, remain untried.
I wait...I wait...until the day

beyond mists of time where

Recant the murmurs of insecurity that riddled my temple.
