If My Heart Was a Backpack
On the outskirts of the city
a young woman walked
gazing at art and viewing it lovingly.
Inside her bright red backpack
that carried the contents of her life
was a painting.
The painting was years old
and at one point...

I feel a pull, a...

She says it's okay,...

One Night Alone
I wake to a monochrome world and I yawn
The reds, greens and yellows awaiting the dawn
Out on the water, my luminous float
Rides unseen ripples in fear of no boat
This morning my roof is my fishing...

Saving 7 Items From My Burning Home
Oh goodness the house is on fire,
And so is the one across the street,
And the one next door, I’m scared,
And frantic and overpowered with smoke!
I hear the fire crackling
And voices and feel...

Never Dreaming
As a child we watched George Jetson face-timing Mr. Spacely.
We knew this would never come to fruition.
Our stereo players took an entire end table.
Videotaping was not even a future dream.
Tape recorders were enormously heavy and...

The War
Her eyes blinked-
Sending a tear,
Down her cheek;
Her heart trampled-
Like a wild animal,
Held onto a leash;
The spring had come,
And with it came-
The sweet-smelling lavenders,
That hung low,
Seeing her sorrow-laden face.
'Don`t worry dear,
I`ll be back for you,
In...

Leitmotif
Delusion comfort and the somn of the routine
Draws sharpness of awareness of yours
Depending on the context of your situation
The habit of the mechanism is tin
That's weird type of force
The conservation
In fact you really don't conserve...

Practicing to save my future...

Late Love,Lost Love
What was so different about that day?
We had met many times before.
Perhaps a spark had ignited
That we were unaware of
Until the fire swept us away,
Or the still waters of personal passion
Caught us in their...

Downloading Time
Had to download some daylight,
the screen is in dark mode,
is the plasma alive?
Alive in the way the brain is;
not awake or aware
but just a memory nexus
shuffling between
fake pictures of reality.
The sun is up, a fuzzy...

Tranquil thoughts
breathing

languorous trembled gaze
A mask promising nothing
yet yearning to taste
now pushed aside
Risking this pull
stakes everything
Claims made
forever washing
though tears of ecstasy
now rolling free of

Back When I Was Young
Back when I was young,
