and wonders what criteria confer elevation,

Tench
There is a water glint,
just shining through the copse beyond.
Autumn's sinking sun,
barred by spindle trees and the last

Am Never Gonna Cry Again
Am never paving way ever again to tears,
Am standing tall to all these fears,

Struggled enough,

Nothing will take me back to that futon,
I have worked harder to slide back,
Embraced...

Not Like a Figwort

Blood Test
Seeming to decipher,
The count of the sample,
Whether white, red or dead,
It appears, each is ample,
The blood of our lives,
Not the fluid, arterial,
But the beings, among them,
Usurped the toy in your cereal,
Their daily appearance,
At the start...

Carp Fishing In Michigan
Clutching
The end of my Zebco rod and reel
As the cast of tackle is flung

Adventures of the Little Red Ribbon
A cold, cold autumn wind,
Tickles my edges to the frills.
Making me wave to the people,
And starts to give me the chills.
Now a stronger gust,
Lifts my silken body free.
My shiny red skin shimmers,
For all the world...

His rugged well-built shoulders, and face with all its charms.

Though it won’t come every day
It’s when the scene you wish to make,

In a passionate embrace…
One kisses the...
