Stoicism As Way of Life - Or Not
"As a child I maintained a stoic attitude.
I exhibited patience, restraint, resignation, forbearance, and lack of complaint.
The ideal child you might say. As I grew, I realized the error of my ways."

red lines
Sunrise was just a red line in the inky void, as Lisa and I reached the harbor decking stairs,
but at once, the brazen slash began widening, like a silent, slow motion explosion,
thin, smoky...

Nebulous Horizon
So, it's been said that everything looks better in the morning light, but when sun's warm rays cannot break through the shrouded zenith what hope is there for life?
What can be observed in a world...

How Sweet the Bloom of Love
Enchanted was I with a cloying scent...
whiffs of wild magnolia
mingled with the woodsy tang
of her lemon verbena perfuming the air
Like Samson's strength, the sun's threads of gold
were clipped by silver shears
of an ascending pearlescent...

For Those Who Love
Enchanted was I with a cloying scent...

mingled with the woodsy tang
of lemon verbena perfuming the air
Like Samson's strength, the sun's threads of gold
were clipped by silver shears
of an ascending pearlescent moon

our moment.
our pier.
in a split second,
a single-slipped ray
of animation
senses and egresses
ambient light
into the
cauterized bloodstream
of two enamored
lovers.
Fstop. (SNAP!)
our reflection.
my desire for you.
my private folding
twice into your extended arms -

Whitewashing the Fence
I've constructed a picket fence around me to keep jackanapes out
Through pickets they can see me, but I never allow them to touch
private parts of me I keep concealed, and don't talk about so much

Wake
Yawning eyes, a window to my soul
Breathless whys, that follow into my eye-hole
Gradually fading into the mirror
Hurried air lifted me nearer
There I soar over a continuum of water
Dovetailed and coupled by a cotter
Lights are picture...

Hypothesis of Grief
All day out of sorts with self I fluttered like a leaf
Upon a monstrous limb of grief
There was nothing in psychology or even belief
I found to bring my soul relief
All day with smoke filled eyes...

Come, I Invite You to Suckle
Sea, I stand upon your shore with the rising of the sun

Long before the overture of the human race has begun
I walk barefoot on the...

The Rapture
the rapture
Each story fell to the ground
feathers were collected
in the die-off different colours
prismed in the silver dust
of moon eclipsing sun
the in-between time
where the sky parted
like torn curtains
the Grimoire words
flew off the page
into...

Facets of Love
Always a gentle rose in the cubicles of my mind,
Each velvety petal unfolding, one day at a time.
The radiant beauty of a blushing new bride;
The whimsical disposition of an evening tide.
The color of our love...

Prismed Face: An Abstraction
*Please note:
I'm not in the throes of sadness. Just a write for another poetry site.

My eyes are half closed for I fear to see
what worry and anxiety have made of me.
All day I've...

To Find Your Rainbows End
A quiet storm made its way
Feelings strewn and blown astray
Enamored in one another were we
In turns a desperation to be free
Lost in each other, thus
A soft-focused portrait of us
Harsh and cold are the fates
As...

Watching Lauren Sleep
Do you live in a Palace, little girl?
A crystal mountain's majesty
Where prismed lights of pink and blue
In butterfly profusion play...
Do you have rainbow walkways, little one?
Melting colors winding out of view
Into the Realm of Happenstance;
The...

Sunset Constanza
Dedicated, a second time, to our beloved Connie.
At twilight, prismed skies unfold
Painting Earth in roseate light
Pastel hues brushed on clouds in flight
Pink threads woven with rays of gold
Marmalade fingers fade to peach
Sinking low,...

Fragile Is Life
fragile
the tiny egg
laid on a milkweed leaf
devoured by a hungry lizard
deprived of becoming
a butterfly
Life ends
fragile
the butterfly
sipping from a pink rose
becomes the feast for a sparrow
Monarch devoured in flight
That's the law of
Nature
fragile
the rose petals

In Nature's Glory
As I awake from night's deep sleep
morning light begins its grand sweep.
Across the skyline, it unfurls
as dewdrops hang like strands of pearls.
Resembling tears, not those of grief,
they quench the thirst of each dry leaf.
On prismed...

Teardrop Prisms
In my teardrops and prismed raindrops,
and in rainbow hues I glimpse your face,
with the grins and smiles I long to see.
If only I could hold you again in my embrace.
My darling daughter, I wish it...

Mirrors, Unhung
Within prismed images I was captured
along with twilight as it tinted the sky.
We were ensnared during a power struggle
at the hour when sunlight wrestled the moon.
Neither wanted to vacate the celestial throne.
But I was...

Always a gentle rose in the cubicles of my mind,
Each velvety petal unfolding, one day at a time,
The radiant beauty of a blushing new bride;
A whimsical disposition of a late evening tide.
