Premium Member In London Town
In London Town, a girl was born
Who lost the crown, but won the scorn 
Of Lady Margaret's deep disdain
For something proud, she cannot reign

Her daughter's name was Mary Grace
An angel with a beaming face
Who blessed...

Leaning On a Failure Mentality
{intro}
You keep-you keep-you keep flying,
Though I’m honestly crying…...weeping…..sighing…..
Extra careful not to snip your heart strings
Tattoo your tune in my heart that pleasurably stings
Pain is what I need not to inflict myself with – just what...

So-Called Positive Poe
Downstairs I go
Elevate me, you know 
I'll get over the luv floo
Over the bad days too
Acting like a weirdo
A clown with an upside down frown... I'm a positive Poe 

I'm out of my mind

You see the past in me

I loved you since Hills, Beverly
I hooked up many times and I don’t regret the experiences
But, the aftermath of my sins are only mere reminiscences

You ain’t fooling me, bizarre notions

The Sun Ascends, the Sun Descends
~2/9/14~

The sun ascends, the sun descends
Leave me alone, loneliness
The morning mourns bitterly – the hummingbird’s song mends
The stranger holds in his distress
The singer hesitates and sings no more 
Her eyes are bloodshot
Illuminating sun spreads sweat...

Ribcage - As Smooth As Butter - Chapter 2
Split apart your ribcage, 
Open up the corridors in your mind, let me crawl in 
This feeling of grief and panic instantly zips through me
Ripping my hopes into shreds of worthless paper
I will endure...I will...

Premium Member In the Narrow Corridors of Lost Time
In the narrow corridors of lost time,
where light seeks its shadows in dusty corners,
words sit like butterflies with heavy wings,
suffering under the weight of unspoken silences.
In the silent cells of a forgotten world,
my books traverse...

Out of Exile
I am not a blank slate to score upon again
Yet there is this gap, this hollow place
That wants a name. I search for it in vain
The alien presence of eyes, and of face
Nothing comes back...

When you make your leave,
Pull up your rainbow sleeve

A Pirate's Quest
It was quite an adventure. I never had sailed. 
Appearances looked like the last trip had failed. 
“That rickety old thing? Ya’ sure it will float?” 
Nodding my friend said, “Don’t call it a boat.”

Old Skool Love
Give me that old skool love, a groovy throw back

kind of love that is black and white like the first TVs.

A tapered leg acid washed jean trouser and a crop

Waking With the Past
In bubble thought
I wrote by words
of my round-glassy head
and closed my eyes.
 To my surprise
I saw a vintage
picture—a cover to a book
I’d closed for years.

	To keep my eye
from sprinkling
I let the story unfold
in silent
form
for I...

An Unfolded Whisper
~

A lilac endeavor
of promised importance
came strolling along
on a path in the sun
Its fragrance unfurling
this side of September
when springtime was singing
for winter was done
With meadowlarks chatting
in off color language
while watching the roses
now bloom by the wall
She...

What Matters Most

Shadows linger in the living-room
It feels that something is watching over me
I like the way you make me smile...it wipes away the gloom
It sends those shadows far away at sea
Look around and you'll...
