She Carries TUKAHOK In Her Chest
she is matawàhkwí
of the pullaook — turkey clan
she is lenni lenape
born where marsh meets
sky’s reflection
where grass (aski) bends
to east wind (achpateuny)
and water (mbi) feeds
all it touches
the year's spirit
in spiral moons
not lines on paper
each moon
opens its...

Agony and Ecstasy of Doubt
Doubt is anonymous.
It's (more) synonymous,
to the fairer sex.
It's a, in built feature,
of possessiveness.
A default setting,
of mother nature.
Selfish at times,
devoid of broader vision.
Natural defense mechanism;
that activates when love
is not reciprocated.
Just a shadow of affection,
towards another.
Can cast...

Sonnet 14, Part 1 of 3
1. Ripples in warm sunbeams dwell.
From a sandy cocoon I wake and stir.
A floater in the blue does knell,
A dot, a stain, a blackened blur.
Am I the only one who sees?
No, the beach is afoot...

To Live, Flightless Birds
A single branch, clawed and pecked, fickle and straining,
Lonely Nestling and father, paw and peck at their home
Lonely branch, spasms in the wind
Nestling and father paw and peck, yearn and whimper
These Flightless Birds, on a...

Pandemic Nightfall
I hold your hand,
Look into your eyes.
I see fear there.
You don’t want to die.
I watch you breathe in.
I watch you breathe out.
My entire world is trapped in plastic.
I’m surrounded by the sound of oxygen machines.
I...

Whispers of Dawn
A reflecting angel, deep inside,
forgives the past, sets sins aside.
Rising above yesterday's pain,
embracing change, a sunlit rain.
Greed's dark shadow, a fading stain,
washed clean by a heart that gives again.
Hate's cold grip, now loosens its hold,
melting...

Death Is Beautiful
She wakes up.
Surrounded by darkness.
She tries to stand, but is knocked to the floor.
She looks around for a way out.
But she sees nothing.
Suddenly she feels as if she is being strangled....

The Times
Yes these days were hard, tough, and stripped from fun. These days they give us unwelcomed memories, and unwanted fights. They forbid us from living, from being, from once and for all becoming family, becoming...

Deeper
My soul trapped, dark and broken
Pain so deep no words could be spoken
Buried within me scars like tokens
A heart dormant is slowly awoken.
A breath taken thru shaky lips
Carefully placing my footing so I don't slip
Happiness...

Planting Seeds
birds gather at the feeder, hovering,
near the sunflower seeds,
tap, tap, tap against the windowsill,
where a feeder is attached,
filled by hopeful hearts who linger,
at the window,
relishing the wonder of these flying whispers,
sighing in the...

Groundhog Day 2022 Or Forty Two Days Since 2021 Winter Solstice Part One
Already noticeably marked
increase in daylight
yours truly courtesy affected
qua heliotropic phenomenon
finds me noggin gently being tugged
upward and westward ho toward sun
after dark mine talking head
rests downward and eastward.
Soon very indistinct
environmental intimations
regarding onomatopoeic
ubiquitous murmurings,
whereby old...

A Young Man's Sorrow
With heavy eyes and a hallowed heart,
A young man crows at the ivory moon.
Like a skipping record scarred by strife,
He tightens and loosens an angry fist,
Focused on the faint outline
Still etched upon his left,...

Leverage
I am the wrench in the clockwork,
a tiny twist in the gears of a universe
too vast to notice my pinch,
yet enough to reroute the cascade—
leverage, a quiet conspiracy of small forces.
Like a catapult built from...

At Western Washington State Fair
After traffic backup and teen crack ups,

through gate, stamp and bracelet I race
greeting other friends with new to make.
Amid fried onion reek and the compete

Ecstasy and You and Me
in this place
now
here
in the safety
of this languid afternoon
I close my eyes
and listen to her voice
her sigh
with your hand on my thigh
knowing as I do
that there is no pretense
or disguise
no need to hide
I am who I...

Serenity and Sorrow
There is peace at the end of every war,
Just like warmth following after winter
There is renewal washing up to shore,
And sweet always accompanies bitter
Bitter. What’s more bitter than emotion?
Perhaps when the sun starts to set,
All...
