Therapeutic Talking

Talk therapy
among braver angels
and curious devilish advocates,

Evolves natural contemplative thoughts
of healthy minds and bodies

Liberal YangTruth and Conserving YintegralBeauty
in co-empathic compassion

Nonviolently hopeful
win/win bicameral intelligence
exploring why

And healthy...

What Remains Within - Remorse and Pain, of Course, Reduces To Rain

It has done more harm than good

Shadows dare to consume me
Darkness will disappear drastically
Crows get scared away...

She is Herself everyday.

From Dust To Ashes: Diamond Eyes

Those diamonds - they shimmer anew
In your forest eyes...out of the blue...
Elegance and erosion collide in my cranium
Leaving me a missing, numb crumb, succumbing to the feeling of numb

He had brown hair and the most passionate eyes 

Is this Axel?

Smothering Gloria given Privileges

Feathers sparkled lustrous leaves
crowded in a blisterful branch
glazed pink lusted sprinkling waves
smothered a idyllic luxury
Blizzard armies of service
strategically polished in sparkling
sparkle polish 
for a whispered gloria 
held sacredly 
Born in lacy recklessness 
with scarlet lolita...

Unnecessary Love

I don’t need that unnecessary love. 
A love of limited time based on moral and physical pretendence.

its visible squirm an apology for not bringing...

Riding in the dark with the sound of our silent...

Apartment of Addiction

There seems to be silence within the serene night,
 yet those indoors have eternal cries of unspoken fright.
One man drowns in chocolate, shamefully eying his hips,

For tonight
celebrating 163 birthdays
among the three of me,
my husband,
and oldest son's May birthdays

less apart

We are here to understand

Somewhere Near Here

In old Jerusalem near cross and sepulcher
Transgressors and confessors searching for a cure
Weary Pilgrims assembled in this place ornate
Guilty, broken, sad, sickened, from life’s heavy weight

Here we remember how our sin once did molest
How selfish...
