To make sense of it all
as a child, the grief stolen
all too swiftly and replaced...

pink cheeks, flushed,
from suffocated time,
gasping for air,
I shatter at his words like brittle rust,

Kids' TableLaying my head back, eyes closing,
reminiscing, the years falling away into decades ago
to the 1950s at my grandparents' grand home
for Christmas.

these days I have the memory of a goldish or amoeba

SingedI move my life to marching drums,
carving paths into my bare palms.
You showed me how to play apathy
I've never begged to a silent god more than
when I dreamed of empty tables
and riots in my wardrobe

VacantFor the girl who went.
Emptiness stares in blank pages,
another dirge written in torment.

Milk SpillUnder inexorable gravity’s pull,
galaxies often move toward one another.
Closer and closer they come to each other,
till astronomic smashups happen in full.
For no less than two of them, possibly three,

as computer...

Naked truth, bent nails
dead men tell no tales
bad Apple, broken mirrors
burnt out light bulbs, crocodile tears

rotten egg, bad to the bone
eagle eye, no place like home.
