Strange Ways, Here We Come
“Strange Ways, Here We Come”

through my doors
“I had no choice”
the supercilious harbinger said,
“to intervene, to parlay away
something

nor usurping interloper
and their profound lies

At My Dad's, Thinking About HerSalty glass eyes,
Thimbles brimming
with summer-leaf green poison
stare back at me.
A stare chilled subzero.
I, of course, imagine this stare
is a defense mechanism to hide her troubles.
I imagine a glimmer of light

A closed mind submits nothing, zero and zilch

the sun will rise, the sun will set;

The Wolf - Part 3...... Part 3 ......

Ice Nine Part 2Frigid metals twist like
Banshees in shriek,
