My tummy is churning my head hurts too

I have a runny nose and a tongue with blue dots

“Mom come quick!” I helplessly...

Burning Paper Houses

Slowly creeping out of winter 
Would it ever be the same 
If I showed up at your door 
Out of breath, out of line 
With a million excuses behind my manic behavior?
A video diary full...

Growing Up

I remember…

The little girl words falling from my lips,
In whispers and whimpers, coloring
Light in misty feelings, flowing like the gentle
Music, rhythmic, pulsing – revealing
Where sincerity shakes the hand of serenity,
Bringing dreams to the heart of...

The Lonely Angler

He was there in the beginning
and through the eternal ending.

He'd scattered his seed 'cross numerous worlds.
They flourished.
They perished.
Flora, fauna, innumerable forms,
aeons of evolutionary warfare.
Extermination of the unfit
without the mercy of design.
Quadrillions of cadavers
paving a road...

The Missing Ingredient

Oh God, you must know what I’m missing out on
Though at times I am not really sure,
If it’s possibly not inconvenient “in Truth”
Might You help me discover the cure?

My loneliness never does leave me alone,
Though...

I Never Knew a Love Before - Warning, It's a Long One

I never knew a love before


Of you my proudest moments stand
For only I can see
This life was once a jumbled mess
Much more than it should be

I gaze upon the history 
Of what has come and...

Descent and Ascent

“on an as is where is basis we choose
descent of consciousness into the gross
then we rise again following heart’s muse
higher than where stood, bearing love’s cross”

When I see others getting much ahead of me,
And ascending...

We're Probably Getting Back Together Soon

My phone died this week.
I’ve ordered a new one—
I’d like to say I’ve enjoyed the silence,
just lo-fi music playing, slipping into a flow state.
But I’d be lying.

Only a handful of friends to tell.
Enough to register...

We Wait

No chatter patter, I'm alone in a lonely house as winter arrives
My thoughts fly to you as you travel afar in distant regions
You still write me letters, though with fewer lines
Yet, they are filled with...

In the labyrinth of warmth, I sought refuge in the cold room of frozen memories

In the labyrinth of warmth, I sought refuge in the cold room of frozen memories,
From the cold room, I fled to the coffin of unspoken promises,
And from the coffin? Only the bare hands of time...

However, I think an additional 100 years of life would be ideal
It would give me time and chances to take a shot...

Death of the Mime

His makeup is pasted on him as though a ghost

The makeup was taken from my very last breath

The lack of blood in my veins caused it to be white

As the mime prepares for his reenactment...

I Build a Home In You

I build a HOME in you,
And decorated it with care and affection,
That's what I can call it though,

I didn't love myself enough, doesn't mean I couldn't..
It's that I loved you too much and I only...

Californy

Jack was sitting poker faced 
With bullets backed by bitches.
Neal hunched at the wheel 
Puttin everyone in stitches.
He was braggin 'bout

While drivin through Nebraska. 
Said that when she came,
She honked...

In This Chair...

Hmmm...
I am alone again today.
Lately those days have become more and more gathered into weeks.

But...
I mustn't fear the creep of the still air upon my flattened seat.
Sooner or later, he comes a tired mess and...

In the Span of a Moment

In the span of a moment
A word of caution
Destiny alters
Those fragile components

In a moment a seed 
Comes forth to fruition
Or it dies with no one to grieve
No pause nor slight intermission

In the span of a...

I Broke Free

What happened to the man I loved? Why did he lose himself?
The strong hold his demons had over him was tearing us apart   
Dilated pupils, slurred words, stupid grin worn when drinking,
a fool...

She Wrote a Word

She was looking into her album.

Perhaps, She would write a story for herself. 
A moment for a little adventure.
Reality is a platform to live and breathe. 
And imagination is a doorway to relief.
She needed relief,...
