Backhand
"Backhand"
You have turned me
inside out, cut open
like a tennis ball
I used to beat backhand
along with the racket
hard against the garage wall
To make sense of it all
as a child, the grief stolen
all too swiftly and replaced...

Where the Vision Visits
Kentucky's late summer sunshine
sunk deep into their skin
as the boy rode on the back
of his Grandfather's coppered horse,
the tobacco harvest would begin soon,
aromas of sweet leaf darkness
were wafting in the field heat,
to the big barn...

Alice Through The Wormhole
Blinding rays of moonlight pierce through windblown curtains, whilst droplets of sweat bead on a heavy forehead. Sleep becomes more elusive with every tick of the clock, as insomniac nights and broken days gnaw into...

Spring Break V - Russians On Miami Beach
I.
The Fish Crow is an outcast amongst the seagulls
Standing on the hot Miami sand
At the end
Of our rose-colored beach towel
Nodding and blabbing half-heartedly
Nuh-uh nuh-uh
To the lack of crumbs
From us
The stingy blue collar visitors
From freezing old...

A Model For Our Times
As the sun shone in southern skies, I was finally on my vacation,
And I turned the pages of a magazine, with new fashion creations.
I lounged beside the resort pool, in a straw hat and sunglasses,
Sipping...

MEMORIES OF WAR
MEMORIES OF WAR
In prison we turmoiled
packed up cards to fall
whilst they sucked
genitals like bonbons
a quartz on a table
gleamed its knowing
War torn ghettos with
swollen stomachs
stretched wide, auras
shattered, splintered...

Rainbow Girl
I was an irrepressible and happy young woman, and graceful ballet dancer,
Who lived for twirling on a world stage, as red berries are shrub laughter!

Ricochet
My old life seems monotonous to me now, but I allow it was fine then,
As cobalt skies allow warm butterscotch rays, to linger in the glen.
I worked through those golden days, but most evenings stayed...

Upon the pillow of pain lies your head
Lost in the grief your temple is bearing

Mrs Maya
Under the towering bridge, beside the tulip garden, next to the curvy ridge, sat a soldier awaiting no one.
Merged with a melody of notes, when the rappling river hummed it's tune, this man felt...

Chamber of a Thousand Faces
I was a bonafide, happy beautician, like a gorgeous, daisy sun as it is rising;
And charming, happy faces were my pursuit, like silvery moonlight uprising.
My days were a flurry of manicures and facials, like nature's...

Anathema
Dumbfounded in the raw,
nerves in neon.
Sin-New and bones quartered by time's animation-
Death re-imagined by the law of Thelema and Agenda 21.
Moments of truth corner you in alleys and avenues in the night.
As they are ritually...

I breathe you
in the pulse of erased promises ~

The Kingfisher
"The Kingfisher"
Easters
fast escape us
like every
Christmas
comes and goes
like a Graduation
where the parent
is excluded
and the lost
prodigious progeny
eventually
makes their quest
for an elusive

or burnt ashes
floating on air, where,
the breeze pushes...

The Person I Used To Be
She lived in shadows, where light felt too bright
And joy was something spoken of,
But seldom felt or experienced, something
That most of the time, meant reaching for another,
Another’s joy, though not hers,
She hoped might, somehow,...

I was a zealous environmental scientist, preserving green on our blue planet;
To benefit all animals, plants and people, under sunset skies of pomegranate.

Often I had to issue advisories and warnings, like a jumbo roar of...

In Th Beginning There Was God Part 2
> In the beginning there was God Part two.
Back to God, one day you know.
In one place in that space.
He found one rock.
It was neither cold or hot.
With that He decided then to play.
