Across the cracked concrete slabs,
past a fallen dogwoods left lying like so much litter;
at the red brick base of the courthouse, the jurors strode.

Through the doors too heavy for a mere woman to open unassisted;

Hungry for munchies, on his way to the lunchroom, 
a rambunctious, persnickety,“fuss-budget”, elderly
jittery, fidgety, geezer, named Cassidy…
whose questionable dexterity, aghast by a massive sneeze,
teeter-tottered precariously. 
at the edge of the thingamajig, ...jigging one way, jagging...

my feelings

sweet murmuring poems-gossamer

Turn creation away from appreciation
And into a miracle
Turn the miracle away from care
For what possible pathetic hands as these
Could ever change anything

Turn life into a repentance for living
The demoralization of heavens acceptance
Gives anyone...

Warmth of Breeze
Imagine me as a book covered with dust,
A soul whose warmth for years remained untouched

The essence was hidden in an ambiguous fear

Uninterested I was in the societal rigmarole,

Between Two Worlds

the forest breathing around me,
each leaf a whisper,
each tree a silent witness to my thoughts.

My Craves
Desperation travels my marrows,
still breath stealing all my tomorrows

The Mask of Distraction
I like hallween
because we can't stop pretending

an outfit on some slinky, hot momma
is reason to act unchained
and we're not unchained enough

too often
to a level
that the rigmarole 
of keeping one's...

Thoughts So Naked

Unfettered Petite
Unfettered she arose my consciousness
Desirable alluring petal
Lone rose from the dirt pile
Beautiful African luscious eve

The prize whom all men kill and war for.
My pricey win.

We are in a daze and nothing more.
The cats that came were deformed.

They legs were made to dance.
They pantomime.
The rigmarole was a silent scream.

About the man being the only one thinking of sex?

somewhere a thought is projected 
dappling on all present 
did it start inside my skull? I don't ask

but it bounces into a counter argument 
tussles start
all completely invisible to the naked eye
