Winter, 1948
WINTER, 1948 [40 Saxton Street]
for W.W
The winter nights that pass now
are so unlike the winter nights
that passed before, that I often
struggle back in those suspended moments
when sleep grapples for a hold,
to once again hear the...

I Could
I could sit here and choose not to feel this sorrow.
I could ignore it forget it and move on tomorrow.
I could sit and bide my time til time is come and gone.
I could look...

LOVE REBORN
(A Sequel To “Rough Draft”)
Verse 1:
In the library’s corner, tucked in the trash,
A wadded up paper, a forgotten ash.
But a few words exposed, a whisper of grace,
Caught her eye, and time slowed its pace.
She pulled...

The Offering Plate
The Offering Plate
The offering plate
started at row one
I was in row ten.
I reached in my pants
knowing I had a five
down there somewhere.
I pulled a crumpled wad
from my pocket.
A receipt from MacDonalds,
couple...

Folded Napkins
The napkins were cut and woven in her dad’s barn that he and his dad built from the broken oaks.
Each clump of cotton piled up in front of her
Leave and left
She thought

Paper Weight
At times it gets hard to talk.
Instead of rambling about anything.
Most times I sit without saying a word.
Just sitting in thought.
Most times different conclusions are drawn.
This at all doesn't mean that anything is wrong.
Sitting in...

Simple Watery Freeze
Eutectic water ice with a time-extending elixir,
Casting a trivial covering of aqueous freezing.
In the puncture spirits of an exquisite spritzer,
The Esophagus of a beat glass, sublimating.
Casting a trivial covering of aqueous freezing,
Wadded ash fills...

See What Sun Bathing Gets You
As the sun baked the bathers
No one thought to observe the sea
For out in the distance came
A monster from beneath.
With stealth, developed for water
It approached the waiting shore.
Before the bathers knew it
They were, just...

A Newlywed's Lament
Elixers, emulsions, powders and lotions,
spread on the counter like a fleet on an ocean.
It’s those bathroom battles that I still see,
ground that was lost, or a quiet victory.
A bloodless conflict, I must concede,
But battle...

Frienemy:To Know My Foe
You came to me
As an enemy
Feared, Dark, Revered
Steering me toward uncertainty
Avoiding, annoying, destroying
Trust in men
Pricking me to hate
The desire within
Just when I determined
To make my escape
You clung to my words
And wadded up my hate
You threw,...

The American Flag, It Is You
A symbol of respect, pride, and strength,
not to be ruffled, wadded, or soiled,
to be folded, unfurled, raised for all to see,
as in going into battle resounding victory.
Not to be tattered, torn, or burned in effigy,
rather...

i love you
your countless lies leave a sour taste on my tongue
“i love you” you claim
yet it’s muttered using all of the air in your lungs
your breathing stops
and you have nothing left to give
yet...

What the Carpet Knows
I see what's underneath ladies' skirts; their plump underpinnings and roundness.
I feel shoes scrape across my surface, the feel of a broom and the bold suck of a vacuum
Each piece of me becomes a bit...

No Matter What You Write
The paper upon which I write
a testament to my failure;
words scratched through,
lines obliterated,
soon join
paper wadded, torn
strewn around the floor.
My pencil, nearly a stub
readies a new sheet,
a clean slate,
radically blurs back and forth
above the paper
as if...

As Life Begins To Wane
On countrysides animal scurry along, leaving footprints
In the carbonized material of this planet.
Channel surfing & empty ink pens,
Pepsi & wadded up candy wrappers
All over the house remannts of LIFE
Breathing all over us.
LIFE moves over...

Crumpled Thoughts
Cast aside are my crumpled thoughts,
lain strewn about the overflowing bin.
Each one representing a moment sought,
a idea gone awry, to be rewritten.
Crushed into balls of jagged course,
cast aside are my crumpled thoughts.
Tossed in the general...

Past Anger Issues
The older I get the less that I fret
With my panties wadded up in a tizzy
As anyone could see I used to be
A mini-me of Dizzy Gillespie
I'd huff and I'd puff when I'd...

Moon Mad
Dust clings to my suit caught
by wafts of imagined vapor,
until I drag, drag, down
the dunes and depressions.
The cold a new arm of guidance.
I’m supposed to be warm,
wadded in comfort lining
but cold, cold, makes me old.
While...

Say Goodbye
The nights shadows scurry from the dawns arrogant light,
as I stand on this ledge, pondering flight...
What does it matter anyway?
Tomorrow will be just like today...
The bridge is now only ash...
