The Adventure

"Walk" - a simple word uttered.
The dogs jump at the door,
that old, creaky, wooden door,
at the mere mention of the word.
Open mouthed with tongues hanging out of the side,
panting and whining with glee,
they wait impatiently,...

Jeanmarie's Baby, Or Why We Have No Anti-Christ, Part Ii

...He snapped his fingers, and everything changed,
she was in her bed, but not her bedroom,
red walls of gore flanked poor Jean on all sides,
fire ran through seems, she heard cries of doom.

Across Fair Fields

Run across the fair fields, as fast as you can run, the fields your grandmother ran as a young girl,
Over long lush dark green grasses, whipping your knees, soft spongy turf springs each new step,
To...

This Is Where I Belong the Great War

Walking along a maze of muddy walls stepping over rotting young men their boots gone,
Taking the scenes for granted as this is all I know and cannot even remember my home,
The trenched walkways are like...

And Sadness Reigns

And sadness reigns
Though never ordained
from the simple truth
Billowing joy
Subverting bliss
Standards too ephemeral
To lobby the naked
wishes we hold
Desperately close
To our heart
And sadness reigns
Our heart
once whole
Sputter and mends
And beats eternally
No matter the blood
No blood the matter
It seeks,...

Everybody Loves Raymond

I never knew how this could be true
Until I myself began to love Raymond too
The last man to kiss on these sweet lips
The passion and excitement of him I truly miss

Others called him Raymond, but...

The Day Our World Changed

I lay in bed last night thinking of 
 everything and nothing, as I often do.
  For some reason or maybe for no reason,
    I thought of playing on my slip-and-slide...

Take the Time

As I look outside today
through my window pane,
I see the cloudy weather
about to start to rain
Dismal, dark and dank
it is outside just  now
How I truly wish
I could be out there somehow 

But alas my...

Behind the Scenes

He scorns all these young potheads and their habits.
He vows he’d never do a thing like that.
He pours himself a glass of amber liquid,
Locates his keys and dons his tattered hat.

He drives down the street...

Good Friday Stranded

Four months pregnant
show them the belly.
Real not plastic,

Ultrasound glares pierce
a lack of eye contact

stuck at the Papa John's
on Fountainbridge. Eleven PM.

Drunken men to be avoided.

A place to stay - no,
money for a place to stay.
It's...

The Silence In the Garden

This morning is perfect silence
And all the world is a garden.
The greying wooden bench upon which
I sit is still slightly damp from last
Night's rain, but was mostly
Sheltered by the brick arches of the
Museum's facade behind...

My Disease

How dare you proclaim that I am perfect!
See these scars?
I am weak!
See these tears?
I don't even know why I'm crying!
My mind is my prison,
keeping me locked up while depression holds the key!
I try to move...

My World

The strange world of mine, compels, me to look up,
To observe all the worthy, man-made stuff;
The table-top, appears so clean, from my high seat,
When grounded, a friendly spider in a cobweb, greets.

How I wish, to...

Two Eagles

We have a pair of eagles who, from their nearby nest travel to a tall power pole upon which they like to rest.

We like to greet them when our paths cross…wondering how much they understand...
