Long Steady as she goes Poems

Walking the asphalt of the city. Nothing floats on the air.
. All is quiet, seems dormant. 
Not a scream or any musical stream. 
Bunches of clean air is bare. Surreal like snatches or pieces
Of a...

I love an empty page, pristine and fresh,
Creating life, from its sanitized death,
Gently depress the pen, unto its silky sheet,
Hand rests comfortable, on the surface beneath.

Ink tentatively starts to flow, filling in blank space,
Blood pressure...

Sometimes I just want to say
I reckon it doesn’t matter any way

I remember once I watched a ghost
Fly into a soul and become the host

As darkness inhales clear blue sky’s
Mothers feeling their children’s cries

In a...

My life is what...

morphine intravenous supplied,
pain deadened,
she lies dormant, oblivious to all,
thoughts suppressed,
unfeeling and benumbed
in  the emergency cubicle.
 
Her husband holds her hand,
icy, like winter at its worst.

The path of life is criss-crossed 
with many intersections:

A fork in the road forces you 
to choose a diversion:

Journey


The waves on which we walk are a treacherous mountain pass.
Cavernous falls and crevasses, formed by an icy chill blast.
Never second guess your step, steady as she goes,
Patiently plotting you ascent through life’s snow.

Sunshine Eats Its Armor


Night is an old fish
deep in a dark sea
racing ever upward,
emerging into light

slow to eat more
yet steady as she goes
ever changing its tails,

seeking life anew
anticipating,
a future never known,

breaking against all
speeding into a...

That day that stuck like glue,
hide your pride in the wind and let it go.
Redemption has found me relieved more than happy,
no fanfare or parade,
just get back in the shade.
Just get back in line for...
