Put Them Out of Sight Now

Lay down your old ink pen...
Rise from the table...
Push back your chair.
Gather them all up...
Put them out of sight now...
Place them safely in the cupboard 
Bare.
Wrapped in stiff brown paper,
Strung tightly together
With thin white string;
Turn...

Dear Barbara

Dear Barbara


When a man loves a woman:

He smiles and laughs with her.

He respects her and doesn’t try to direct her.
In years gone by, I am certain that there was an ‘air of control’ about me...

Forgotten Valentine

I wipe away a tear as I
Walk home alone in the rain
As the flutter of my heaving heart
Loudly beat against the window pane

I push back the growing numbness
Oh but how I grieve, I grieve
That no...

It’s that dream again
I’m running, faster, faster

He got me with his knife
sliced deep down my sternum
the blood trickles around my hand
as I keep applying pressure.
I had to run; I never win hand-to-hand
but if I can...

I Am Not My Past

The psych ward,
The place everybody assumes is all padded rooms and restraints,
People think that being in the hospital defines you.

So tell me,
Does having been in hospital define me?
Does it define me as crazy or unsafe?

March Winds

March Winds

Stooping their backs while grasping their hats,
The gentleman and lady friend push back
The wind, attempting to gain progression
On the sidewalk to their destination.

One leg ahead, followed by the other
Stepping forward in an aggressive manner,

A Diary's Page (Jw)

The mornings of anticipation when I
From prayer past through virtual doors
Another world without seas or sky
Another world where invisible drops pour
Upon the garden of my heart, and bring
The fragrance of refreshing day,...

The smile
The tears
Of wistful elegance

This onyx cry
Now turns into an everlasting echo

I sing to these...
