Long Peppering Poems

"Salvage"

reaching upwards travelling in a new time
of melting morpheme moments overlapping

A most disruptive sleep - psyche violently pummeled

Upon awakening earlier today
(May 26th, 2020)
felt utterly fatigued without fail
tormenting dreams found yours truly

exerted to no avail.

Exhaustion pounded noggin

Reminding...

aghast to exhale lest...lose
desperate clinging clutch
held by bloodied cracked fingernail

freefalling, pirouetting unnervingly,
unstoppably, unwaveringly... zipping

into infinite...

Poets go beyond the rose
Into the petal’s gentle soul
Poets go beneath the bud
To caress the sweet nectar

Where flowers learn to charm
Poets go inside the heart
Of a lilac’s lavender blush

Poets go…

Echoes of laughter penetrate my reflections
Reminding me of the loneliness that exists
Amid shattered memories and lost dreams

Lifted from the earth to walk along those
Streets of heaven, where...
