The Tower Rebuilt
I shall resolve to leave this
Place now...
And steadfastly search out,
Nestling between ridge and bluff
Amidst the folds of a foreign
Land,
Several acres of unkempt ground
Fallow and rough;
Upon which stands...
Crumbled stone walls
With an exposed slate roof in

Ghosts of the Sun Dance-Part 2
8. Transformation
Yielding to those who have mastered the art
Of grasping one's place in existence's grand scheme
Life’s constant challenges never depart
But humble diligence will grow the dream
In passing from childhood to adulthood
Innocence to responsibility
Firm new role...

My dogs walked with me, and took side trails on the
sly.
A little trail becomes a deer trail, through the
eucalyptus and pine
The oxalis grows wild...

This Is David
From his mama's own mouth, this story came
Her travail to carry him, a long trail
Of tears, loneliness, suffering and shame
A hunger for which hope made no avail
And then the hemorrhaging, her vital blood
Like common mud,...

Crushing muscle, bone and sinew
While asleep and while awake
No...

An Atomical Labour
tight thoughts toil,
as threads in head uncoil
ideas plaited, intent's tug
escort through dilate pupils.
umbrella lashes shady look
was all it took-
inception outspooked
at artful spirit's raid,
inkling's snapline birth
twine in tensile mind,
sprinkling notion's seeds.
Small things become divine.

Let those comment who kill with soft words when they ‘get’ you!

reciprocal giftings that laud what we write in return?

Stalwart Eldest Sister Amelie

high and mighty mandating,
inculcating, buoying... pride
toward planet Earth, the
apathetic, demonic, horrific,
plastic... malleable passive

A somber echo into the abyss

But it did its job

There is no sweetness or solace here.
