To Dance With Mary Jane
I never got to dance with Mary Jane
although I heard she sure knows how to swing!
She has a twin, and he is masculine;
he doesn’t have his sister’s magic powers,
her mystic way of calming people down
or...

Scissors Man
You're a waste of a man
The last choice for a sane person
The weirdest weirdo amidst weirdos
You just don't fit in —
Like a pole climbing strap
Trying to be forced into a blue Jeans
What an abuse of...

Deathbeds In the Desert -
The sand is stained red
with our bygone blood,
the blood that brought us from Ararat to the Alti,
a tribe trekking intrepidly through the Eurasian terrain,
caravans of Caucasians clad with Celtic tartan twills
plaids upon the pale horse...

A Treasured Single Private Moment Captured But Not Forgotten
Leisurely sat on a busy beach
A hive of noise and activity
A collage of shifting
Shape and colour form
Just casually surveying the view
I felt the hot intense expanding rays Of the sun
Scorch and burn my sensitive...

If You Care To Know
A few things you should know about the things I love
like the magic of watching asteroids above
the fact that I was born on Easter Day
the joy of buying a summertime bouquet
off-hours where I quietly sit...

Serging Through Life's Stitches with Scars
Serging through life, I whipstitch, weft, and welt,
But always, my thoughts are pick-threading.
As stippled patches of emotion rise and fall in me,
See me, feel me, touch me, heal me
Just too many scars.
The mindless mind stresses...

All In a Day At the Louvre
Magnetic attraction, enchanting dream of a lifetime -
majestic pyramid attracts my eye,
mystique draws me in
O, your architecture! Pavilions, colonnades; art enclosing art,
every square inch deliberately designed,
ceilings pour forth scintillating splendor
Antiquities from Rome, Egypt, the...

Tourette's Majorette
Splintering away from all that matters
Burdens of trust shred my brain to tatters
Gratitude infects while I glimpse your face
Hurdles abound to perk my apathy
Until I'm stung by that buzzing wrath bee
Bold cup full of bliss...

Getting Out of the Queen City In Crisis
At home, on Amazon, hibernating from pestilence and logic,
I searched for happiness in contrivances, wastes, and textiles.
No game, but hunting. I watched my only life sunk
into a Broyhill sofa, sometimes hunkering, sometimes sprawled,...

Art - Alphonse Mucha
Alphonse Mucha's art was so influential it helped create Art Nouveau.
A flamboyant sensuous style, with softness, swirls, curls and beauty.

Unforgiven
I remember the silhouette
From her stares and gestures
How they gracefully slithered
Through minds and seasons
The silk in her demeanor
How it sucked un-weaved roughage
And tilted edges of dispositions
Until moments stood firm
She only had one niddle of hope
With...

What's Stopping You
What’s stopping you
From being the person
Who you want to be
In this crazy world
That we all live in?
What’s stopping you
From reaching the mountain top
To complete every goal
That you have?
What’s stopping you
From living your best life?
What’s stopping...

What Heaven Feels Like
Frolicking minds under benevolent skies
Set into motion spectacular emotions
Painting orange hues on silken textiles
As lovers embark on a path to paradise
Horizon bends listening to ocean tidings
Emanating from voices of rippling images
When twilight beams refract under...

The Sublime Dream of a Wealthy Merchant
O Serenissima,*fabled city
guarding the bluest lagoon, remain
the Queen of the Adriatic Sea;
on a gondola I glide while
the gondolier sings to luminous stars.
Under bridges of moonlight,
mysteries increase by the dozen;
standing on the Bridge Of Sighs,
a...

Nile beams as proud Mother of the land,
it's benefactory, gland.
Rushes to tend, to lend her foster
fauceted facet of hand-maidening
brand of bands in bend.
Oasic endow'n.

Instinct Under a Dangerous Tease
Ripe, fresh, new and tender are names she should bear.
I am 17, she’s 16, both alone and innocent
in a partially illuminated room.
She possesses while seated,
expanding hips, lines of fleshy diversions,
small dark shadows and shades of...

Waiting Room Jitters
Patients in and out within the backdrop of muted rose walls, blue carpet,
dark wood and purple plaid textiles. As faces changed, colors clashed.
One young girl wore scarlet shoestrings and a gold skirt topped...

Lunch With a Textile
People who are addicted to texting are textiles.
Ever have lunch with a textile?
You find yourself looking at the top of the textile's head...
more than their eyes...
Every so often they look your way, cross-eyed.
Head bobbing (like...

Spindled Mettle
Spindled Mettle
Hour upon hour she sits thoughtfully absorbed
spinning attentively conception’s fibers
while creating new textures within her mind…
As grain, by grain of living sand, erodes the weaves
exposing gently or tearing the woven seams…

Historical
Saw some quilts constructed
In the Civil Wartime years,
One made by a soldier,
Not as strange as it appears.
Cloth was cut from uniforms,
With both sides represented –
Harmony in textiles
Way before some men repented.
Wonder what that...

Nymphéas
You wanted to linger in the Montmartre
where the shops were full
of colorful Arab textiles,
I wanted to take the train to Giverny
to see the water lilies.
The shopping was a distraction for you,
the nymphaea a hope...
