Unwoven Memories
I grew up and out on a four family-owned,
and cooperatively-organized,
extended matriarchal farm.
Four interdependent 1940s through 1970s patriarchally managed businesses,
without substantial questions about who should wear pants,
yet with a surprising matriarchal cooperative understory.
The boxers outnumbered the...

Within Golden Walls, Love's Gardens Await
Ripe are swelled grapes upon glowing vine
my darling on love's bounty we shall dine
in our paradise rests more than a dream
there flows truest joy from Heaven's first stream.
Within golden walls,...

If it were all a dream
water would flow through from the sea to the earth
And where earth meets the waters mighty crest a shore would stand
If it were all a dream
time would move unaccountably
Like wind...

When the chase after Omo Ogun with your heart
Failed to be anything worthy to steal the cheapest glance from...

In the Shade of Her Mango Tree
Sally was playing in her backyard…chasing butterflies and bees
when she decided to rest a while in the shade of her mango tree.
“Thank you for the shade.” She said. “It’s nice to get out of the...

Bastard Child
Like a penny, lost and worthless, woman
mother, and buried within the origin pit, dark
she brought me like a Jezebel into her life of mourning
mistress of the stage and child to horror
born, and off he ran,...

Changing Seasons
Shamefully dull, life would be,
Without seasons to nourish me.
Winter, Spring, Summer, and Fall,
Nature’s blessings the nourish us all
Apathetic and harsh, winter is,
With arctic gales that pierce
Every linen shielding my frame.
Anomalous flakes of snow drift...

Psycho Romance
You're like a ray of sunshine that creases my skin,
A whisper of sweet nothings, pulling me in.

Bang! Bang! on the chamber walls.

So Many Plums
This was the year for an abundance of plums,
the fruitlets spared by the absence of frost.
The tree was leaning, the branches drooping
with a curtain of fruit downward plunging.
Such was the challenge...

The Soul Solitude Kisses
Mother's love grew into a sour myth.
I spewed out her milk
into the stygian sea
that brought the merchants
whose merchandise were deep, immortal musings
on a new-found love.
Solitude was there
filled with eros that left
every monk defiled.
Unclad she was...

When Nature Resounds
God has graced Nature with beauty and utmost esteem.
A crown has rested upon her head all her life long.
In my youth, a flower bud made my eyes gleam;
Its radiant loveliness being praised by the birds’...

Raspberry Kisses
Raspberry Kisses
Silent kisses throughout the air.
Just like the wild raspberry affair.
Nowhere to know how,
Can they be found!
Now they are here,
Only to me you appear,
Fragrantly simple and sweet,
From your head to your feet,
Melts-in-your-mouth, easy...

or ride "solitaire" through this "scrabble"d "mousetrap,"
or add so many kids that they stack on your lap.

The Last Good Days of Innocence
I skip,
like stones skimming on a lake-
The song that awakens
the ripest memories;
how your eyes
widen
whilst your thumbs
outline me.
The way your face falls,
huddled
between my arms...
Or how you let your
fingers blanket...

The Apple Tree
My simple thoughts compounded leaves
The fruit of my labour I bear to thieves
The concentric circles in my bark at every stage
Hold me steady, firm as a rock of all ages
I’m a seed for juicy thoughts...

Like a tumbleweed in the wind
I'm so tired of drifting away
Without the blessings of the canyon sun
A ship upon that desert sea
Sunlight so far away from me

In a lattice-lit dorm room sits a writer.
A discarded chemistry book lies beside her.
because ideas are hitting off her, like a collider.
Why does writing make her feel alive-er?
Cause it helps sort out the feelings inside...

Binging On Bings
Summertime,
in the hot valley,
I shimmied up the first few corky feet of the trunk
and climbed into the high canopy of the
colossal cherry tree.
Perched, but cautiously,
on the roof
of Uncle Freddy's garage,
gorging...

Aged Like Wine
Years go by like a purple blur of time,
As when the ripest grapes are turned,
Into the most luscious and aged wine!
Then memory itself often comes calling,
In sweltering sunshine and in the rain,
Like roaming bluebirds' memories...
