Layers
As you peel back one layer you will a bit more of me
Each layer defines parts that the naked eye may not see
The outer layer is tough resistant and seems weather proof
Just one more layer...

2015
Starched tears stream, crust
over like a spoiled sweet on 
pink cheeks, flushed,
from suffocated time,
gasping for air,
I shatter at his words like brittle rust,
crushed to dust, 
mind meek.

Fifth time this week.
Shallow breaths to Karma Police,

Beneath the Oak Tree
I kneel to pray beneath an oak tree’s leaves,
where my journey began.
Broken limbs straggle over a patchy lawn,
a neglected place full of holes, 
shoveled from childhood memories.

I bow at the altar of the tall oak.
Days...

Premium Member River of Tears
Volcanic rage erupts from deep within – 
No matter where or when, it roars and spits. 
Shattered mirror reflecting my every flaw – 
Bleeding shards of glass slice through my skin.

The past sears me like...

A Letter To Kenzi - Part 1of4
You struggle and you look down upon yourself,
But little do you know, you are my hero. 
You cry and say you are weak sometimes, 
But I look at you and I see incredible strength.

Responsibilities of Citizenry
responsibilities of “citizenry”

blanket statements are always 
made, be they flippant or 
completely genuine & until the
AI”s get their bugs worked out
(upon a time far in the non-
nuclear-war future), no doubt 
this error in us humans...

My Friends, My Faith, My Hope
My Friends, My Faith, My Hope

My friends infuses our time spent together
As musk from a perfume seller,
Time spent in their knowledgeable company priceless,
Positive demeanor, manner, sincerity, such bliss
Mashing my cobwebs with threads of awareness

This would be just another one
of those average dinner parties

With a stream of boring associates and
their plus 1 partner or other

But wow

Residues of what's left after an erruption, looks like surgical

Leaving behind the rests of a...

The Broken Pieces of Me
Once upon a time,
a heart beats with bliss.
As the clocks chime,
we part with a kiss.

As you fade away,
the snow blinds my eyes.
I pray as I stray
under various skies.

The tiny glow wanes
as I hold it to...

I swallow rasorblades to take the headaches away

I Stink of Regret
The stench crawls up the mossy drapery in a 
house reeking with death. The sad part is
no one died here, just my soul. A mirror on 
the wall is a remnant of the God forsaken...

aching to give and partake in the new experience

All On a Summers Eve
The screen door droops lazily, slightly ajar
Crickets croon lullabies, heard from afar
Kid’s sticky faces, betray ice-cream bars
All on a summers eve

Legs peel off chairs, from the sticky, wet heat
Rocking chairs sway, creaking out restless beats
Mosquitoes,...

And in the fogged morning I didn’t want to face you 
(I was too bitchy; I didn’t have my...

No Swimming
The Murray can be dangerous,
as the locals have worked out.
There has been some drowning's
plus a few close shaves about.
Some blame grog; some foolishness,
and a few don't seem to know,
but most folks that live along it,
