they were filed away, labeled,
color coded;
tales presented as apocryphal bibles.
He would listen as she pulled them out

poetry to an acolyte sponge.
Her stories festered the...

In denim baggy overalls, a plaid shirt, white painters cap,

A Teacher's PoemYou are all cool kids in your youngest ever age,
You make each other day like you’re out of your cage.

Tangled VinesI got tangled up in this relationship
that offers no hope for anything but regrets,
no wedding ring on finger...

What I See- Nursery RhymeI see gulls gliding in the air.
I watch them landing down in pair.
All around me is the sea.

Rook Is Back To FettleThe dawn is damp and grumpy grey
strong fungal odours fill the air.

The Old Redbud Tree
The Old Redbud Tree
There is a gnarled redbud left standing,
It blossomed pink year after year;
Four fused trunks grew from its base,

the night in frenzy clangour turns ghostly gray.
Billowing clouds slowly swirl in anger
round the formidable, full mysterious blood-red moon.
The eternal night ebbs with growling sounds,
prowling into thickening hours...
