A-B=me
Perhaps the stifled conversation, the contact Of Bodies
Or the Building and Spitting and Swearing
The Light, the graze of many Nameless finger-tips
Or the tenderness, which in the end, Deciphered Nothing.
The words addressed and loved by Someone,
But...

The tip of your nose brushes
The back of my neck

Question Mark Tale
Goddamn smartass squirrel goes through a window and starts slapping a plush toy.
Turning it over and over.

Up on its attention antennae, sealed in clover.

Too Silly For Words
I wanted to age graciously,
Serene, ladylike and wise,
But I get confused and muddled
And I've come to realise
Things happen to me,
That takes me by surprise
Everything unravels before
My fading eyes.
I cannot enter a room,
Without tripping at the...

Lapse In Memory
A billowing curtain
brushed at my face,
as barking dogs
your steps did trace
With baited breath
I waited in tremble,
and with a hefty knock
my door did rumble
Pulling myself
from out of the chair,
I was shaking to fall
half way there
Hand on...

Pom Pom Mountain
We drank cheap beer in a rusted out shed.
Buzzing before our 8:00AM English class.
Trying to be cool- to fit with the "Ins."
Instead, were becoming the wobbling outcasts.
Spinning further out from the golden Ins.
Ah the golden...

The Apple
I lay spread-eagle in a field orchard;
Surrounded on four sides by long-grown, green grass
On a dry, October's noon. Nonchalant.
I watched a small squirrel climb a tree, close;
The branches shaking violently still.
With a soft...

A Cold Dark Night
Abandoned soul lost in a tempestuous storm
Cascading raindrops stream down the window pane
Oblivious is she to her own mournful wailing
Leeches line up to lay claim on their investment
Darkness falls soundly, hollowing out the pit of...

Ask For a Visitation Dream
People go along in their life and then bam. Dead. Deceased. Kaput.
Survivors sit by a headstone and talk to them. I am not kidding!

Skating For Gold

Baffling backflips and butterfly jumps
Completing camel spins and cross strokes

Fearless heights for fan spirals and flying spins

When Love Let Me Down
Was it Mercury in retrograde,
Or the moon in Capricorn?
Did my horoscope predict this fate?
Was it destined the day I was born?
When love let me down
I was walking the track
With a train coming on,
And a bullseye...
