flagrant erections of next generation's hope
for full coloring
perennially emerging...

Comfort In a CookieI swear there’s no heaven
I’m just twenty seven
Two toddlers, never married
Two fathers, my life far too harried
I bartend and wait tables
My life doesn’t resemble storybook fables
I live stressed out with fatigue
I often wonder if I’m...

Turtle Dove I've been down
This road before
Far too many times
With a tiny frown,
But what for?
I've been alone
For many years
Far too many times,
Sheltered by tears

I love you somehow
Grieve not,...

Time has moved on

Three Turtle SongsTurtle by the Door
The bears and wolves are few;
one threadbare widow mourning,
two grays as consumptive as smoke.
The large dwindle,
their bodies grow more awkward,

The heavier beasts sway
like drunks in the scant woods.
Under a pelting...

and boots and belts of finest faun-skin
and helmets topped...

SinnerWhen the sun has taken over
and your lips have dried.
When your mind is painfully sober,
and all the hope has died,

concealed deep within where nobody, but you can find.
